As the other commenters have pointed out, it’s one of the plants in the Scilla genus (Kevättähti in Finnish).

Apparently the most common one we have escaping gardens in Southern Finland is Lucile’s Glory-of-the-snow, Scilla luciliae (Isokevättähti in Finnish). Other possible options could be Scilla forbesii (Kirjokevättähti), Scilla sardensis (Sinikevättähti) or Scilla bifoliae (Pikkukevättähti).

The plant is native to Eastern Mediterranian and blooms as snow melts in high altitudes. Apparently, it doesn’t really escape very far or spread quickly, and as such is not considered a great threat to native plants.

Honestly, all of the origins storylines are very much worth playing as well. Actually playing as the character adds a lot of depth to the quest lines.

The Finnish word you have is also just ‘shit’ and in no way equivalent to ‘cunt’. The word youre looking for is ‘vittu’, although it is usually (mis)translated as ‘fuck’. The common translation is likely due to the prevalence of use of both ‘fuck’ and ‘vittu’ and their similar severity rather than meaning.

There are sports where women have reached or surpassed men’s records, for example long-distance endurance races or some accuracy-based competitions. Anything where raw explosive strength or size isn’t the main deciding factor. There are examples in history where women have been banned from participating in specific sports because they have been able to win in competition with men.

I think, for the leagues you listed, size, strength and speed are often key, and as such most men have an advantage over most women. I don’t doubt there could be exceptions to that rule.

It’s fun enough. There are enough different types of weapons and build paths that you can have a sizeable warband without having two people exactly alike that combat feels pretty fresh even after 20 hours. Legendary weapons spice things up further if you can take down the elite enemies in each new area.

The game does have a pretty slow pace, you have to grind your way through easier bounties to get money for gear and recipes. Your troupe has to rest daily and you have to feed, heal and pay all of your mercenaries. You will also have to learn and level professions on your characters because professions give actual combat bonuses in addition to food/materials/knowledge.

I’ve been playing co-op with my husband and it’s been fun. We got the tavern DLC for some fun alternative gameplay if combat becomes tiring. If you enjoy turn-based combat, lots of it, and fairly gritty survival difficulty, you’ll find Wartales fun.

I swear I tested this a bunch, restarted the app several times, and it would not work. However, now that I started it again about 30 minutes later and tried to zoom, it works flawlessly.

I’ll edit the post to let people know it’s a user problem. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hm. I showed this to my husband, who immediately pointed out that it’s an anti-tank mine and thus couldn’t be foot-activated.

Most reindeer live North of the Arctic Circle, where the sun does not rise above the horizon in winter months. I suspect most summer days are brighter than the few hours of twilight the reideer get in December.

It took me far too long to understand the wtf-ness of this.

In Finnish, ‘Jussi’ (the Finnish ‘J’ is similar to ‘Y’ in English) is a common men’s name. Think John or similar. It carries some connotations from classic literature to peasants, hard work, and sisu.

And “pussi” simply means a bag, specifically a simple one usually made out of paper or plastic.

The branding is supposed to invoke an idea of breakfast buns that are traditional, simple, and full of energy to carry you through your day.

I would recommend soppa365.fi for your recipe needs. It compiles recipes in Finnish from several sources. You can usually find something that works with little to no adjustment.

I would not use ‘laulu’ when talking about contemporary music, it sounds wildly dated. Laulu also tends to refer only the vocals, or that least comes off as dismissive of the rest of the piece.

Biisi indeed works with popular music but is not appropriate for classical compositions (sävellys). Instead of ‘biisi,’ I would generally use ‘kappale.’ It does not, however, work for all pieces of art, one would not refer to a painting or a sculpture as ‘kappale.’
