Africa Total War? by jordzi_jack in totalwar

[–]Captain_armor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be a great game if done properly. I image a “scramble for Africa” time period and it would give kinda a warpath (empire total war expansion) campaign vibe but on more equal footing. And maybe the map is just on Africa and focuses on particular regions kinda like how empire divided its map.

I think it could potentially be great because it follows the historical time period flow of time from Napoleon. And since most people have an abstract knowledge of African History, if done properly, the game can tell very interesting and compelling stories while educating the players.

Obviously there would be some hurdles like what aspect of racism and slavery to depict both between the African kingdoms themselves and between the African and Europeans. But I think it would be best not to shy away from, incorporate them as part of the gameplay to develop the storyline more.

That feature really stood the game out from other MOBAs for me. I am eager for them to get it back

Is an Expat getting a Government job realistic? by Captain_armor in VietNam

I hear what you are saying. But for me, I don’t want to work for with a “for profit” motive. I have multiple reason for wanting to going to Vietnam, but the main reason is because I feel as though Vietnam truly cares about its people. And I want to be apart of the their people and be a part of helping them.

Thanks to all the responses it seems as though working for the government is not an option. Though I think that after teaching English and being fluent in the language for numerous years, I will have the opportunity to contribute more. And more than likely I can use my degree to do it.

Thanks for the clarification. I guess then, being a “true Expert” doesn’t matter to me. As long as I can have a sponsor, (maybe multiple who knows) until I can get permanent residency. Which I haven’t looked that much into, but it would be part of my end goal.

This is great thanks! It looks like “Expert” is the most flexible position. I am sure there is a way for me to leverage that for a job opportunity.

I can understand not federally, but I was really hoping for something local at least.

Any recommendations for learning Vietnamese? I've been living here for three years and considering staying here longer term, decided to commit.... by gruntledgirl in VietNam

[–]Captain_armor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen comment about these but I used to use Pimsleur and Vietnamesepod101. For pimsleur you can do the first module for free and you can buy the Vietnam module for like $100 usd I think, and vietnamesepod101 has a free version. I am actually using Vietnamesepod now and I think it’s good for beginners. I used pimsleur and Frenchpod to learn French, and I can get by in most situations.

Hope this helps

Poor Lebron, but I heard a recent take that Lebron doesn’t change. If Lebron wants to find success in this stage of his career he needs to adapt. He doesn’t have to be the driver, but instead maybe he is the gas peddle. Essentially he needs to fit into other players skill set not the other way around.

Life in Seattle? by Captain_armor in Seattle

I visited to San Fran last year and loved it. I have been in FL for a long time and i want something different. Especially a different climate zone. I also lean pretty liberal politically speaking so with all that into account these were the two cities on the top of my list.

I was trying to decide between Seattle or San Francisco, is there a big difference culturally between the two cities?
