In Which the Civ 5 mod Vox Populi has balance issues...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post! Wish you a happy Friday, and an excellent weekend that is to come next! How are you? How have you been across the week? As for me, I am okay, overall. The weather on my end has been more consistent, as the days have been relatively hot over a number of them. Not ideal, I hope for more rain to cone at some point!  I, for some reason, decided to take the dust off Civ 6, and play it a bit. I trust this is due my Civ 5 current fatigue. Is it my favorite civ? Absolutely. But that said, as I already saw what I wanted on the vanilla, I did mention this time and again, I have since shifted towards mods such as the big Vox Populi one. That gave this entry a rich afterlife with me, specially as Civ 6 fail to sit well overall.  Alas, this mod is not a silver bullet to revitalize a game that I have play more than enough at this point. I am happy to still try it, but this particular mod has a huge issue concerning wars, which is borderline...

In Which I have the delicate balance between Forcing writing and Not Writing at all...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post!!! How are you today? How was your weekend overall? As for me, I am okay... finally got a new case and screen film for the phone. I was in need of both of those... even with my financial situation being sort of a mess, I managed to sort that out, so that is good. I got a teal case, and it looks marvelous. I also am thinking a bit about what would be my plans for my birthday of 2024? Could this be the time for finally getting an iPad, so I can learn digital art? Only time will tell. I think my iPhone still has a year or two extra in it... As for a job, which is still a very remote option for me, I wouldnt be sure even how to get a job. I don't know how is the process for that, what is the procedure, and so on. It is frustrating. 



Not many games for me in Thursday morning, alas, for I was at the house of grandma, for some breakfast and lunch. It was nice to visit grandma after a week where she was away on a trip to the beach. Back at home, then, and I drank some coffee so I may do some gaming in the afternoon. As I already finished my college lessons for today, I may also keep on reading the book I am reading, maybe some drawing is in order?

I ended up returning to grandma's house, for we are short on food at home, and here I may as well enjoy more abundance on that end. Again, finished my lessons, I really hope I can return to the book on Maria Theresa at some point. I am also listening to an audiobook, I trust I mentioned it before? It is about Babylon, the mesopotamians. Quite a good book so far, I am happy with it, indeed. I hope I can play some more games as the day goes, I have some in mind, like Anno or Empire Earth II. I did the Prussian campaign just now, finishing yet another chapter. Ah, I also reinstalled Civ 6. A friend made me want to return to it... I hope I can draw, I have one or two ideas in mind, but none of the drive to put it on paper, yet, not now, specially when I am sore from sitting down for too long.

What else is there to be said, today? At this precise moment, I can't think of anything else, alas. Maybe would be a nice time to wrap today's post, least of all you may suffer from boredom... When should I return? Hopefully as soon as I can! Hopefully by Sunday, and then on the next week to write some more! I don't like when I don't write much on the blog. One less post invites less publications and lesser publications. Even if it is a hobby.

So, see you again real soon! Hope your rest of the day goes fine! Thank you once again, and I wish you the best!
