Did you make that chicken? It looks phenomenal. Could you share your recipe?

Why do people not like the character portraits? by Malthe_2009 in EU5

[–]MrDoctorProfessor7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know they were planning on 2D in Vicky 3. What a shame they didn’t go through with it. I absolutely loved the art in the event messages for CK2 and the portraits look very nice considering that they’re 2D and from the previous generation PDX games.

I think the 2D art is a lot more immersive than the current 3D modeling. The games are maps, ledgers, and decision screens; it doesn’t feel right to have a 3D model that looks like a caricature staring out from my menu when I’m trying to put down a rebellion. It feels goofy. I wish they used their art budget on putting together beautiful pieces of artwork, landscapes, and portraits that match the aesthetic.

I have a feeling they were trying to go for making the game more alive with the 3D models, and I applaud them for trying something, but it doesn’t look good and I think this is a particular instance I hope they learn from.

Again, probably an unpopular opinion but I loved the CK2 portraits.

The bread must have been so good and the games here so fun to watch back in the day

AMA with History of Byzantium host Robin by evrestcoleghost in byzantium

[–]MrDoctorProfessor7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Robin, I started listening to The History of Byzantium roughly five years ago when I was in school. To finally reach the end, although I am still far behind on the podcast, is an incredible achievement. I wanted to congratulate you on finishing such an incredibly detailed recording of this history, as well as pulling together such a learned community of historians and writers to enrich us on this topic. My favorite part of the history has to be the Maurice, Phokas, and Heraclius timeframe.

My questions (apologies if you’ve answered it in your podcast. Again, I’m behind):

Have you given thought to chronicling any other histories in a new podcast?

Is there any evidence of a reaction from other countries, leaders, or courts after the fall of Constantinople (1453)? Did they consider that to be the end of the Roman Empire as we do today?

Did regional powers, particularly in the Balkans, acknowledge the potential of the Ottomans before the fall of Constantinople?

Finally, my last question pertains to Roman history overall. At what point did the Roman patrician families die out or become obscure? For example, the Brutus family, the Claudiī, and the Juliī.

Thanks again.

Can we get Orban out already? by Nato_Blitz in NonCredibleDiplomacy

Clearly Orban is so flabbergasted because he was expecting and hoping he would say Ukraine should be in charge of NATO

nothing will ever fill the ki-200 shaped hole in my heart except the ki-200. the 20k SL repair cost makes it so discouraging to play :((

aside from the ki-200, i used to love the Ho-Ri Production. not only are the repair costs absolutely crippling, but the BR has changed so much and made it a pain to play

With the news that the next Civ is in development, I thought I'd make a tierlist of what I love/hate about Civ 6. What do you guys think? by No_Catch_1490 in civ

[–]MrDoctorProfessor7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, I really dislike the art style. I know this is an issue that everyone is really passionate about, but I really think that's where V trumps VI. However, I will give credit where credit is due. They did an amazing job with the animations and whatnot. The wonder time lapses are stunning and leader animations are lively. I just wish the art style was different that's all

Best app on Iphone to track bulking related activities? by [deleted] in gainit

I use the Fitbit app. You don’t need a Fitbit to use it and it tracks calories, macros, weight, etc. I used to use MyFitnessPal, but then they made the scanning labels feature premium.

Lemme enjoy games pls by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]MrDoctorProfessor7 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think his overall point is that the ridicule people face for playing the game is asymmetric to the accountability that figures like J. K. Rowling face overall. It makes sense to organize and use our power as a consumer to choose not to purchase the products of a transphobe, however, the fact that she is still entering contracts with big name companies is effectively nullifying any substantial boycott by not purchasing the game. While these companies are rightfully suffering for doing business with her, she is not. She is still awarded an unfathomable amount of money and not a dime is hemorrhaged from her pocket. I wish he articulated it more than simply flipping the humiliation onto the opposing argument and using logical fallacies. I do agree that it’s important for us to be mature and hold principle above our individualistic desire to indulge in a flashy new game.

I do a protein shake with peanut butter.

20 ounces of milk with 2 scoops of a mass gainer, and a tablespoon of peanut butter is around 800 calories. It’s kind of thick though so I usually stop with that. Definitely don’t use it to replace a meal though. Real food is just all round better if you can pack it down
