I’ve been asking for a long time, we’re lucky to get a 20 min video. Maybe his internet is trash or maybe he’s just set in his ways, but he’ll say “this video is already getting too long” at 14 minutes when most gaming channels do at least 30 minutes. Obviously someone else edits them so he must just give them free reign to decide the length.

Drae (gast), you've been been a huge part of my life. You're not only a "Let's player" to me, but a constant - the voice that brings peace and smile, even in the hardest times. I'm commenting on this video, cuz I'm polish and don't comment often (and I'm a bit drunk). I've been here since the big yellow in Stranded Deep and first Besiage videos. You make people's lifes better by bringing laughter into their lives and you also bring peace in this chaotic world. From the bottom of my heart, I hope you will have a nice day!

And you have Madison to look after so it's understandable. Maybe try cutting out parts of games less because I would actually like to see you grinding more and not always doing things off-camera in games :)

You know, as someone that was going for a degree in Eastern European history, I LOVE games like this since, for some reason, a lot of history classes in general just barely, if at all, talk about how WWI, WWII, and the Cold War went down in Eastern Europe. It's really fascinating to me, especially because Poland and Hungary in particular did a lot of crazy and inane shit during those time periods. Edit: Yes, I KNOW this is not entirely accurate. But the fact that people are even ACKNOWLEDGING countries other than the big players in these wars is a lovely thing to see.

@ConnorEtch 3 ай бұрын

My school in Uk taught us quite a lot of the different countries that fought in those wars, even some of the more interesting side of things like the bear that was trained in syria by the polish, it helped move ammunition and such (theres an easter egg of him in this video) his name was Wojtek. Idk if all schools taught like that in the UK though but a lot of what happened in the wars is common knowledge here.

If you want another fun historical game, play 1066. It’s a browser game, but it is so good. It has the campaign, where it goes through the story of what happed in England in 1066 AD. The Viking invasion, the English pushing them out, and then the Normans conquering England. It’s a strategy game where you control various armies. There’s also a skirmish mode where you can make custom battles.

@ConnorEtch 3 ай бұрын

A lot of ww2 planes used fabric instead of aluminium for the coverings on airframes, it was light and durable for what was needed at the time. Of course there was also a lot of exceptions, like the British Lancaster's and spitfires that were made of metal, the control surfaces on the spitfire however were still made of fabric as it was just cheaper and made the plane slightly lighter, with drawbacks of course. Higher rates of speed and manoeuvres could cause the fabric to distort or even tear.
