I mean, I do, to see what new mods are out.
Gun modding is an absolute shit show btw. Everyone tries to make their guns use the real or unique calibers and it’s kind of a massive pain.

Fallout 3 deserves a mention as a third most relevant.
Yes, that’s called a slave revolt. In that specific case, a couple things of note:
1: You can have both slaves and “free” workers build the same thing.
2: Egypt almost certainly enslaved a large number of war captives from the Sea People invasion
3: That is literally five hundred years after the last pyramid. The Pharaohs moved on to building hidden tombs because it was both cheaper and less of a giant stone monument telling thieves were a rich guy buried some treasure.
And I’d like to point out that the “proof” that slaves weren’t used to build the pyramids is some laborer villages being found and gasp
They got to eat FOOD!
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE
Some of the people that died in accidents were buried on site! By people that thought you’d serve them in the afterlife too! What an honor!
So we know SOME laborers were paid! And they got to eat food! And serve eternally instead of having their bodies dismembered and fed to hogs! For some pyramids!
And a KNOWN slaver culture definitely wouldn’t have had some people working on it be slaves and some wouldn’t be! As any student of history knows, either everyone’s a slave or no one is!
Cue a thousand Redditor “UM AKSHUALLYS!”
Next stop, curing depression by just not thinking about it.
AKSHUALLY my ancestors are carpetbaggers, SUCKER.
That aside “Dixie” isn’t really the same thing as the Confederacy, but there’s a lot to be said from the sociological angle about how cultures often develop in opposition to outside pressures. There isn’t a lot a Texan should have in common with someone from South Carolina after all.
It follows the Midwest BoS chapter, but in all fairness I can’t blame you for the confusion. Texas is big enough that even though it’s the only state to fight for slavery twice and as such is as Dixie as can be, parts of it are considered more properly Southwest and Midwest so there’s plenty of room for debate.
I do not, however, retract my statement on Yankees, as being uncharitable towards them is traditional.
If one more brainless Yankee can’t tell the difference between the South and the Midwest I’m going to do nothing because I expected no better
Mormons: jokes on you, it doesn’t count if we both black out
I’ll clap for you, can’t miss out on being part of everyone.
Sir, this is literally a Wendy’s.
If they did, it should have been a website.
You’d think, but sometimes fitting everything in that you want to do can be a pain in the ass.
He do that sometimes
Violence it is then.
Yes, I expect basic literacy
The value of Twitter when he bought it was $44 billion. We know this because his dumb ass bought it for $44 billion.
Regardless of what a sane person would pay for it, that was the value to him and so if the next highest valuation is $9b he lost $35b of value by overpaying.
You do raise a good point though. Twitter used to be valued at $9b when its value was speculative and the company was growing, now that we know it’s shit and getting worse it’s almost certainly worth less than that too.
They’re pretty easy to counter in Rome 2, you just need to remember it’s necessary and not all-in on heavy infantry. Infantry skirmishers clap them right back to the steppes and there are good auxiliary cavalry options from the start available in Italy.
I definitely remember being frustrated when I first played it trying to chase them around with legionaries but the correct answer is don’t do that then.
Also because they were absurdly expensive for the civilizations that were using them. The loss of their chariots to Sea People invasions and the cost of replacing them is sometimes listed among the reasons for the Bronze Age collapse of the Hittites and the decline of Egypt despite their battlefield victories.
It’s the human condition
