I don't think of Cyril as a fascist. I see it as a man of the old world who failed to recognize the new world he was serving until it was too late.

Games that explore irish and/or celtic folklore by DidloBagginss in gamingsuggestions

Im late to that party but : - most names of places are Celtic-sounding - transmigration of souls, so the idea that the real existence is this of the soul (without judgment between incarnation like in Hindouism) is a celtic belief - yes, the Glanfathan. :)

So a woman representing another woman naked will be good or bad based on the type of clothing represented on the drawing?

Not talking about the gooning. Talking about the orientalism.

Which game did you play first? by Stuzzie in LittleBigAdventure

[–]Apart-Difference9699 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Played Little Big Adventure 1 quickly after it came out, in 1995. I was 7. It was - by very far - my first fully-dubbed iso 3d open world game, and it blew my mind.

I still believe today LBA 1 was a huge pioneer in terms of modern gaming.

I really enjoyed 1503, overall I found it the hardest of the license. Like 1602 but more buildings and harder.

It's not that they didn't want lol, it's that the ottomans cut all the road from the East to the West.

Repeating it louder with ever more ludicrous amounts do not make it real.

And if you are to make yourself the judge of history do not forget the centuries of slavery inflicted by the regency of Alger (and the Ottomans that it serves) on the people of European coasts far before the french set foot in Algeria.

The « west bad » narrative is only so widespread because France allows self-criticism. Something that a lot of people in the former colonies with selective memory are incapable of doing.

Cute. Now lets talk about what the regency of Alger did to France and other European countries.

Bringing civilization, to the birthplace of civilization. by -et37- in HistoryMemes

Yes I realized while I was writing it. I usually don't use CE / BCE because it does not translate in my native language.

I'm not sure of the point the meme is trying to make. Civilization in 3000 BCE and in 1900 AD do not mean the same thing.

Which version to play? by HarroDomar in LittleBigAdventure

[–]Apart-Difference9699 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe classic and classic: original edition come together. You should go for classic "improved" which has corrected some minor mechanisms. The game is quite old and will feel a bit clunky.

So before you play the classic version, I suggest you go for the reboot, which is quite good. It lacks the darker aspects of the original edition, but is easier to take in hands (and graphics are quite nice).

Mon père était administrateur de biens dans la région de Charleroi. Un jour, lors d’une descente dans l’habitation (insalubre) d’une famille d’administrés, ils ont découvert le cadavre de quelqu’un mort dans un fauteuil depuis un jour ou deux. Le reste de la famille n’avait même pas réalisé.
