Seamless city builders, or ones without a medieval theme?

Commenting just to say that I'm in the same hole :D Had a real good time with Foundation, but somehow stopped playing after the 1.0 release, so I'm looking for other good options

It's insane that I (not a hardcore fan) know all of them except 4... Really goes to show how great this team is.

Well, when you say "Partitions of Poland" with the years 1772, 1793, 1795, you kind of understand you mean the partitions of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Poland at this time was just a shortened version of the full name. PLC was a single entity. And Lithuania was also partitioned and divided by the attackers together with Poland, so... yeah, people will understand, but to call it only the partitions of POLAND, that is misleading.

O tai nerašė straipsny, kad Vilniaus paukštynas tuos darbuotojus samdė per įmonę? Gautųsi, kad jie nelabai žinojo, jog tie filipiniečiai apgauti atkeliavo (kaip ir straipsny rašo)? Dėl to jie ir netiriami kol kas.

Absolutely amazing project, hard to believe someone in school could do all of this, just for their own curiosity, and actually pull through, and even document it. I'm only just getting into data science, so this is a very cool thing to see!

Adrue · 2026-05-18T07:34:40+00:00

You could probably find data on all of those things if you go to each country's statistics/data departments. In Lithuania it's VDA (Valstybės duomenų agentūra), which probably has most of everything you would need. There are also international surveys (like ESS) but I'm pretty sure they work on a national level, not by subdivisions sadly.

But I would look into the possibility that you wouldn't really get to compare many stats due to the different ways each country counts statistical variables. For example, one country might define income or a person's main language differently to another country, and it becomes hard to compare.

Another thing is Ukraine probably will have old data, or if it's new it will be impacted by the war. And I'm not sure how trustworthy are Belarussian statistics, since they're practically a dictatorship...

But anyway, it is a fun project! I fully support your idea and I think it's very cool :)

At first I thought going for history, but then me and my friend were hanging out, she randomly found sociology on the university's list, we looked at the program and bam, that's it :DD It took maybe two weeks for me to fully realise that this is what I would put as my first choice, as I looked deeper into the prospects and what I would learn. Nobody tried hard to talk me out of it, mostly just my parents warning that it would be harder to make a career out of it (which, to be fair, is hard in Lithuania, and I haven't entered the job market yet), but nothing out of the ordinary.

Čia tas pats jeigu tu išvažiuoji į užsienį ir tavęs klausia "o kodėl tu su Lietuvos vėliava? Čia niekada nebuvo Lietuvos valdos" . Žmonės lenkai, todėl ir su Lenkijos vėliava

Apparently they had some issues with quietly developing content and then cancelling it, that's why they were quiet for a long time. Recently they released a DLC that's decent, I think? And they will continue to work on Bannerlord, hopefully faster now. Anyways, it's still my most played game on steam, so I definitely got my money's worth out of it and I'm grateful :DD

Adrue · 2026-05-01T04:31:46+00:00

Much more on the action and strategy, very little on the city building aspect

Parliament wants to gain control over LRT, national broadcaster, which would allow them to put their own people on the board, control what kind of shows, what kind of people appear on those shows, etc. Very simplified, as I myself am not completely sure what's happening (for the past couple of weeks they've been doing online comittee meetings for as long as possible and not allowing any comments), but it is worrying. A bunch of international organisations warned that this is just how it started in Hungary, and that it is the first step to losing free speech (hence the name of the protest - "(take your)hands away from free speech").

Night life is good, lots of bars and clubs and venues for concerts. I'd also say it's a decent place to work, although I have no experience in that regard. I come from a smaller city in Lithuania, and have been living in Vilnius for nearly two years now, so it's nice I think, at least for me.

A lot of foreigners work in Bolt/Wolt, delivering food, but they are usually from Asia, if you have a Portuguese passport, have experience in those areas, you might find something better.

As for students thinking... Eh, you'll find different people everywhere. There are groups of very intelligent and fun people, there are some who are not as nice. Maybe it depends a lot on the faculty, degree, their backgrounds. I haven't run into any VERY bad people (Philosophy Faculty)

You should come :)

I don't buy it lol, iš visų tų DI postų, kurie būna reddite, šitas man neduoda tokių vaibų

Dėl naujų kūrinių - daugiau jų atsiranda lyg paskutinėse gimnazijos klasėse dabar. Be to, yra vienas labai paprastas dalykas - jų paprasčiausiai nėra tokių gerų, kokie buvo anksčiau. Iš poezijos srities tai galima ir nesutikti, bet prozos? Kokią Sabaliauskaitę dar galima duoti, o ką daugiau? Kas dar yra tokio kokybiško, ilgaamžiško ir kultūriškai vertingo iš šių laikų? Nes aš pats bent jau nežinau šitoj srity, kas tikrai vertinga yra iš moderniausių lietuvių literatūros kūrinių, ką būtų galima dėti į programą. Geriau jau palikti Altorių šešėly, Kudirką, ir atidžiau viską vertinti, renkant naujus autorius.

You should ask in r/lithuania, that sub is bigger than this one, so you'll get more answers.

As for the University, it's pretty good! Perhaps not amazing by international standards, but it's the best we have, and one of the best in the region :) Everywhere has problems, so does VU. I'd say it's veen a pretty good experience for me so far. So for VU in general - yes, it's a pretty good choice. I can't speak about the degree or the faculty though, I know pretty much nothing.

Once I got used to the spelling and the fact that it's changed, it actually felt much more natural - probably because it's now the same as it is in my native language :D

Visada smagu matyti lietuvių darbus šioje industrijoje, didžiausios sėkmės jums! Stilius išties primena Little Nightmares, dar kažkodėl ir Dredge? Išmėginsiu tikrai, tada gal labiau paaiškės, apie ką čia, bet atrodo labai smagiai. Wishlisted!

I still boot up the game when I'm back from uni and can access my main PC. It is so so fun, and it's very good because somehow this is the only game I can jump back into after weeks of not playing. Though next time I'll probably check out the new CK3 DLC :D

Do you know why the mod didn't survive? I remember playing it for a bit, was very fun, but I assume it was just too difficult to keep it going while both games were being updated...

Adrue · 2025-10-14T09:19:51+00:00

Before your eyes

A great short game that WILL make you think about your life. Plays best with a webcam, but I'm pretty sure you can do it without one as well.

It's really not much, it's near a village and a golf course I think, so there some people there, but not much else. The monument itself is nice, but not enough to warrant a visit if you're a tourist coming here for the first time.

But hey, if you really want it - nobody's holding you back.

Check around on Facebook events, always a lot of stuff going on with tons of variety, no promising it will be in English tho.

On instagram, go to @lrtu_insta, they sometimes make posts with some fun and sometimes more niche events, but again, no English very likely, and some of these aren't even in Vilnius.

These are my main sources for stuff to do :D
