Oblivion is the first time where Bethsoft introduced their very boring and unskippable intro tutorials. It just feels like it never ends and keeps on going and going...
I dont fully understand why China even wants Taiwan. I supposed the forced "reunification" would look good to them, but theres absolutely no positive economic or political reason I can think of. China can already do everything that Taiwan can do.
I found the solution to most annoyances with Bethesda games is solved by hitting ~ then typing tgm
Of course I realised by doing that I kinda skip playing the game, so my solution to my grievances with Bethesda games is ignoring the games altogether.
Yeah, if you don't like fighting demons then this isn't the game for you. That being said, it's at least as good as Kingmaker, and I liked the companions more. At least the non-evil ones.
I configured Kingdom Management to auto, I regret that now because I think I would have liked to try my hand at managing my kingdom but once you set this option you cant change it
So the AI makes all decisions around my lands and so far so good
Pfft, those screens are ok, but if you want sooper graphix, this game can't be beat! Look at those trees, that distant vista!
And behold my beautiful druglord character!

Apart from being completely one-sided, a critical point is that it does nothing to deter another Russian invasion of Ukraine after the Russians have re-armed and rebuilt their forces. Only a NATO alliance or Ukrainian nuclear weapons would provide that.
Really only Ukraine makes compromises
Areas that Russia gets contained 28% of Ukraine's population before the war
Areas contain almost all Ukraine's major ports
Areas contain majority of active mines in Ukraine
Areas contain majority of Ukraine's minerals counted by value
Areas contain majority of Ukraine's manufacturing
Peace plan does not contain any actual protections for Ukraine in case Russia breaks it
Ukraine will not be able to join EU in next 100 years, because they can't meet requirements
Ukraine can't join military alliances not just NATO
Russia gets areas that they have lost for Ukraine
Russia does not give up anything
Russia gets all sanctions removed
I see how it is very good peace plan for Russia, for Ukraine though it is just little better than full surrender
NATO troops will still station there, Ukraine will continue to be westernized.
If it is ever allowed to join EU it will be covered by defense treaty anyway.
Russia has no reason to accept this, not unless US is offering something much bigger then sanction relief.
I wonder how certain is eastern Europe of future US presence.
