Looking back it’s pretty clear that the hatred for Skylar was foreshadowing for the rabid hate mobs that would form around other women in big shows and movies, or perhaps a data point on a trend that goes way back and has just gotten worse with every incarnation.
negative emissions are intended if you have carbon sequestration happening, I think. but it might be related to the bug I got with extinction pressure - for some reason the “ban outdoor cats” policy caused my extinction pressure to become NaN, which prevented me from winning the game even though it should have been zero.
Not a fan of when there’s one magic system and seemingly everyone in the world is on the same page about it. Even in science you have conflicting theories to explain certain things - with magic, where half the shit you do is seemingly random and the results you see are based on vibes, practically every person wielding it should have a completely different understanding of what they’re doing and why it works. That should be the reason why it’s so hard to pass from teacher to student - I could teach you to do the same things I do, and speak the same incantations, but that doesn’t mean it will work for you the way it does for me, because it’s magic and it’s inherently illogical.
GW sucks for a lot of reasons, but I’m glad they came out and said it.
TBH Warhammer hasn’t ever been good satire, it’s almost always been a grab bag universe of things people think are cool in an edgelord kinda way.
I feel you, I “haven’t actually gotten around to painting” my Sisters army for about ten years.
The whole “justice system” usually gets this treatment from player too, since the traditional punishments in Dwarven society are flavorful and cool but extremely harmful if you actually carry them out and the assignment of blame for broken laws is fairly arbitrary. It’s far more useful to the player to simply accept that minor crimes happen and just maximize happiness so that they don’t happen too often than to try to find and punish law breaking dwarves.
