I do exactly that. I have complementary libraries on GoG and Steam, although Steam is obviously bigger.

That is a really cool idea. I think the problem is it's just a bit too niche. A good portion of the people intrigued by the narrative and world-building might get stymied by the travel simulation (I'm envisioning both flying and sailing) and the simulation nerds might just skip past the text and story to get back into flying.

It's certainly something that an indie dev has to shoulder for pure passion of seeing an idea come into the world, and that requires an idea that grabs you. Targeting it as an underserved market will only backfire.

I'm not against the idea, but I'm wondering what's the trigger for non-child-havers? Or is it just the idea of a sabbatical?

On a sidenote, what's the terms on parental leave? How soon after one can you take another? If you're popping 'em out quick as can be, is it months off every 12 months?

Assuming you aren't from Ukraine, how much did Ukraine impact your daily life/touch your daily awareness before it became a battlefield? Countries shouldn't gain more respect just because they're incorporated as a country, especially when it's halfway across the world.

(Researched, via Wikipedia and WorldPopulationReview) Missouri has a population of 6.3 million and total land area of ~178K km; larger in size than countries like Greece and Hungary, and more populous than countries like Denmark and Finland and Ireland. So it should be less regarded than any of those countries because it remains a state?

My stance is: either you should believe any population center of a reasonably large size/population density is worth memorizing or you should just memorize the ones relatively important to you.

There are probably distinct provinces in Canada and China outperforming many countries, so why should they exist on a lower tier than a "country", just because they were persuaded or "persuaded" to incorporate into something larger?

A lot of trouble comes from people's declining reading comprehension.

Oh no.

Reading that induced choking

No, FenrirIII, it just makes you ugly.

What?

That's probably true.

Just like I suspect most Europeans couldn't point out Mississippi or Missouri or Missachetts on the map.

Or even know that "Missachetts" isn't a real state.

Maybe it's a US/EU difference, where EU people wanted to be more specific. I was responding to the incorrect claim that nobody uses the the term "eurojank".

I wonder if they're really huffing the shit they're spewing? How much are they getting paid?
