I haven't played the expansions, but I thought the base decent. It was more interesting than your average Euro, but it didn't blow me away either. I'd say buy it if your into the theme.
Must be a day of the week that ends in y.
Yeah, modded Minecraft is still a big deal. You can join us over at !moddedminecraft@sopuli.xyz if you want. The mod Create is a big deal right now, and rightfully so. It may well be the greatest of all time, as far as Minecraft mods go.

I tried TNFC back in the 1.7.10 era, but never got past a bronze anvil. TFC is fun but can be so tedious to progress in sometimes.
I didn't realize TFC was out yet for modern versions. I'll have to check it out,
Cool! I saw a vid on Better than Adventure but never got around to checking it out.
That's the version Rotarycraft is on.
It has fastcraft. It's a pretty light pack, performance wise, so hopefully should be good on a steam deck, though I haven't tested it on one.
You don't need anything fancy, Imo. I just use LibreOffice
Still birds
Meet the new forge, same as the old forge. Forge has been forked, with the majority of forge's developers moving over to the fork, NeoForge. They hope to implement some major improvements come 1.21 and maintain compatibility with Forge mods on 1.20.
Working on my skyblock modpack, Rotary Skies. I like how The End is turning out. It has a beautiful, ominous, liminal look.
Got a play of Pax Porfiriana in yesterday. Excellent game, very close play. It came down to money after a military coup was narrowly averted. I probably could have won on money had I abandoned the coup attempt and sold off my assassin cards instead, but dang it, I don't want to be the richest player, I want to be the military dictator of Mexico!
It's reminiscent of Pax Pamir, which is in the same system. I'd have to get another Pamir play in to compare, but I think I prefer Porfiriana.
Yeah, mechanism is a lot more objective way to classify board games. We can argue all day about, say, what exactly a wargame is, but what games have hex grids, area control, and resource managements is a lot easier to agree on.
