Ah.

So this is what Skyrim should feel like.

I'm having a lot of fun with the Remastered Skyrim on XB1.
Because of mods!

You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

Cleopatra is supposed to respect strong armies. She said she likes my strong army and wanted friendship. My strong army consisted of ONE scout, nothing else.

I found Germany. On the next turn he declared a formal war on me. Didn't even denounce me first and as far as I'm aware, formal wars can only be declared after 5 or so turns after denounce. One turn after discovery should be surprise war, not formal.

Gandhi wanted me to help him with a war against America. I agreed, three turns later Gandhi denounced me because warmongering.

And so on.

I have a tradition of playing hotseat for months on end with one of my friends - and never finishing a single game. Hopefully we can continue this in civ6 someday...

Nothing new indeed, and when comparing to Civ V, I know patches will come and maybe this time next year the AI isn't as absurd.

..It started out as an assortment of bizarre head parts and outlandish models—one of these being a Wiseau horse—created only to make himself laugh. But hopeful players encouraged him to turn these unconventional heads into proper playable races. He did just that, allowing people to play as races such as a chair, My Little Pony, or even the Space Core from Portal 2.

"It's goofy, it's obviously not 'lore-friendly,' but people pushed me to set it up a bit more properly, so I did," he said...

A Wiseau horse eh?
