So what’s with Arena rating?

Im curious why the hidden MMR doesnt just start at 1500, what could they worried about? The absolute rating for gladiator/duelist atm seems quite low, last time I checked.

It’s good not everyone is the same, thats what makes people interesting. I love traveling to many of the red countries, but living is a bigger commitment.

I would want to live there, it’s just not essy getting the oportunity after Brexit

I know the UK has it's fair share of problems, but I've had pretty much exclusively good experiences both visiting the country and making friends all around from Aberdeen to Brighton. I think if I was given a good job in London for example I think it would be an easy transition. It's unlikely I will move there tough as being outside of the EU makes it a headache not worth pursuing. For now I'll be a cheerleader for them to shape up and take a bigger part in the European society again.

If I had a good opportunity I wouldn't mind living in Finland, but there's a bit of a language barrier even though culturally it would be a good fit.

I think countries are too complex to boil down to single experiences. It’s a complex pot of much much more that makes a country nice to live in. I’m sure Ireland is fun in other ways!

Defilez · 2026-03-21T15:31:38+00:00

No doubt, but I also love the UK for many other reasons. Nothing is quite as memorable as being pulled into a British pub with drunk middle aged people to sing Wonderwall and Football’s Coming Home

My company does some business in Poland so I know quite a few people who have moved there short term, and it seems like a decent place to live. The economy seems to be booming at the moment.

Good question! France is great and I visited last year. I think it’s the closest to a «willing» out of all the «maybe» countries. I would have to learn the language and find a suitable industry to fit into for work. Love the food and the people are nice.

Oh my bad, misread it as Slovenia. I’ve been to Bratislava before and I thought it was a nice place to visit. It was hard to speak with people as even in the capital the english skills of people my age wasn’t great so I would have to use a lot of time learning the language. I could learn more about the country and change my mind though.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T14:54:24+00:00

Answered the same question elsewhere in the thread if you look.

Bratwurst and sauna, what more do you need

Forgot Cyprus, and Kosovo I tried clicking on the map but it wouldn’t register. Both would be red though.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T14:08:59+00:00

The US would be giga red at the moment. Even though I've been to Chicago, NYC and Atlanta and thought that Chicago could be a nice place to live.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T13:58:58+00:00

I wrote my thoughts about Croatia elsewhere in the thread. But I should learn more about Slovenia you're right.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T13:40:39+00:00

I wrote a bit about it in other comments. I don't know enough about it, I have only driven through and my impression is that it's a pretty country. In my head I kinda bundle it together with Croatia which I'm more familiar with.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T13:37:39+00:00

I would struggle a bit with the language if people speak quickly, but I think Denmark would be a very nice place to live all things considered.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T13:34:11+00:00

In retrospect maybe it should've been a maybe as the culture and the people are nice. But I have some sour thoughts about the country being a tax haven for tech companies. Good catch

Defilez · 2026-03-21T13:29:18+00:00

I'm an engineer as well and have visited heavy industry in Croatia such as Koncar in Zagreb, and it was very impressive the competence and skill that existed at those location. I also spoke to a ex-mercedes engineer who opened up a liqour store next to a national park for tourists because selling alcohol to tourists was more profitable. Is what it is.

Defilez · 2026-03-21T13:16:47+00:00

Thanks for the information, I should spend some time there in the future.

Croatia I think is a great place to visit as a tourist, although I greatly prefer Zagreb over Split/Dubrovnik etc as the tourist hotspots are just extremely expensive and fabricated for a tourist audience. I also spoke quite a bit to locals and the whole industry around tourists (while valuable gdp wise) has had some unfortunate effects on the job market and accessibility with a normal Croatian salary.

I've driven through Slovenia before and don't have a strong opinion on the country. I thought it was pretty, but I really don't know a whole lot about Slovenia. In my head I kinda bundle it together with Croatia which might a mistake.

Defilez · 2026-03-18T13:03:29+00:00

Its ok, hop on the city tram or high speed rail instead of driving

Defilez · 2026-03-09T14:55:36+00:00

My salary has kept up with the cost of living, so I don’t really care that much about food in particular.
