The THRONEroom v. the Doge on his box
« on: February 27, 2023, 01:40:47 AM »
It just aggravates me.


THIS is what I like:




Not necessarily this final runway carpet to the throne - not necessarily the checkerboard floor over the previous rich shag carpet.  But this, basically.  A proper throne on a dais, a crown tapestry behind.  It's good.






But NOOOO.  The game has to go on from there, taking away the tapestry, the good throne, and replace them with effete renaissance junk.




Who, I ask you, WHO never wanted to be King Arthur, but DOES want to be the Doge of Venice sitting on a box instead?  Atlas and the tribute/treasure is okay, but gimme back my proper throne on a dais and royal curtain; away with your silly cloth crown!





Thoughts?

-And the game FORCES you to participate in the destruction of what is good for what is busy and off-putting.

Fossils fuels in the last century reached their extreme prices because of their inherent utility: they pack a great deal of potential energy into an extremely efficient package. If we can but sidestep the 100-million-year production process, we can corner this market once again.
