Quoting: randomgamerguy1997What does socialism have in common with its supporters? Neither have ever worked.

I know it's just a joke, but it's not even remotely based on any truth. Jokes tend to be funnier if there's a hint of truth in it.

But it is the truth though

Dude. There are people on these boards who know things about political economy. If your level on the subject is like this, better to just bail from arguing the topic.

Quoting: The_AquabatI don't like expressing my political opinions since this a gaming site. But since the purpose of this game is to create controversy and debate, here's my two cents.

Here in Argentina we have a party that has govern 24 of the last 30 years. The peronism, they are sort of a "light" fascism, that their leader and founder was heavily inspired in Mussolini. And... oh surprise, suprise! they are left fascism, and they are friends with Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, etc.

Quoting: GuestThe trailer doesn't tell a lot. And "socialism", "democratic socialism" and "social democracy" are different things. The first being very different from the last two.

funny how political stuff mean different things in different parts of the world I agree too much northamerican centric for my taste. They have a problem with right wing populism, here the problem is left wing fascism/populism.

And Sanders should educate himself, he said that in Argentina there is socialism... no mister here we have fascism, press is being chased and the justice system is being bought off.

I'm not in love with Peronism, but first, I presume that a lot of Argentinians disagree with you because they do after all repeatedly elect Peronists, and second I find it hard to swallow equating say Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner with fascism when Argentina has its very own experience with genuine fascist rule not so long ago, complete with tens of thousands disappeared, tortured et cetera.
So, you a Macri supporter?

It's got to the point where I've been known to have my laptop next to my gaming computer and read manga on it while Stellaries chugs along.
Meanwhile

Then they have to fight every other pop on the planet to get the job they’re best at.

. . . Suuuuure they do. That would explain why when I look at a planet in the later stages, and I've got a mix of my core species heavily optimized for awesome research and some random immigrants with farming bonuses or whatever, I always find random immigrants in scientist jobs.
Or maybe they mean literally fight? As in "Krog want do research job. Puny nerd got problem with that?"

I love the music on the trailer. I was waiting to see what would be happening on screen at that moment when the music suddenly punches the keyboard in that piece.

Seems interesting. I'd like to see how the lobbying and stuff works.

Quoting: Liam DaweA developer has now confirmed to me they see all show up as Windows, for a game even I personally purchased 100% on Linux for Proton. Waiting to see if they will allow being quoted.

Son of a bitch. That's worse than it seemed.

Quoting: Spirimint

Quoting: Purple Library Guy

Quoting: SpirimintIt works via Mono.

I'm afraid that misses the pun.

What do you mean?

Perhaps you weren't answering me in the first place and I made a mistaken assumption. But assuming your comment that the game uses Mono was answering my "question"--
I wasn't actually asking if the game runs on Wine, I was making a vintage -- wine pun.
