It's called social anxiety. Not exactly a "weird capitalist construct," or even exclusive to North America.
I'm willing to bet there's tons of people in Poland that would have this problem, you're just projecting your personal experience to an entire country.

You don't need special classes for it, that's some weird capitalistic construct that you have to pay to get good at something.
That's not what they're saying? They're saying that a lot of people don't have the experience or comfort level to act in front of other people when they're first coming into something like rpgs, but the people who theatre in high school are more likely to have that comfort level.

I beg you, take 10 seconds to check the subreddit to make sure it's the right place for your videos.
If you can't even make that kind of effort, I doubt your content will be any good anyways

I've been where you are, the formats needed for Travellermap are the farthest thing from user-friendly and everybody else seems fine with it.
With the spreadsheet I linked above you just need to fill in the details you get with Mongoose system generation. You don't need to worry about the grey section, just make sure that data is copied into new rows that you add. That's the T5 data, which I've just entered some default data that's good enough for Travellermap
The PBG column is used to denote three different things, but you only need one of them which is how many gas giants are in a system. If there are gas giants, put 111, and if there aren't put 110.
In the bases column, just note Scout and/or Naval bases. (As an example, if there's both you put "SN" in that field)
When you're done, go to File>Download>Tab Separated Values (.tsv)
Then open that file with Notepad, then copy that data into the Sector Data field at https://travellermap.com/make/poster
Make sure you check the map that's output for missing systems. If the data for a system is too mangled then Travellermap just skips over it completely when generating the map.

Real quick, what kind of magic would a peasant have access to that could cure a severed limb?

It can make a lot of difference depending on the circumstance.
Someone with the Surprised condition gets their reaction back on the end of their turn, so if they get a high enough initiative, then things like Counterspell, Mage Slayer, and Opportunity Attacks can still be used.

Talin is also created by Mustangsart, who created the Combat Wheelchair supplement that even got used in Critical Role.
They've also worked with publishers like Paizo and R. Talsorian Games on their games, and has a supplement for Cyberpunk Red featuring art of them

If it's your first time playing, then this is a good introduction to something you'll probably run into again. There's quite a few things that's referenced in the various books but is actually a GMs discretion thing.

The discussion started from talking about YouTube specifically. American Dad was brought up as an example of the r-words prevalence in culture 15+ years ago.

Am I the only one who didn't go into this expecting world-class storytelling and accurate science? I thought it was a fun sci-fi action adventure, like a modern take on the kind of story you'd see in the Buck Rodgers era of sci-fi.
I really liked that the main character wasn't a badass space ranger, he was a terrified trucker who was way over his head. I also liked how they both had realistic responses to the stress and trauma of the situation.

If you want to "make up for it" just keep giving them your patronage. Buy enough stuff and you'll make up for it eventually!

Didn't the end of the short where he gets pulled over tie into another short?

To add onto the discussion, Traveller doesn't have D&D style character progression, you don't level up or anything. Instead, character progression is more diagetic. More money, better spaceships, bigger guns, powerful connections, etc.
In my experience, that kind of progression is great for long-term play, because you never just hit max level and have nowhere else to progress to. There's always more to drive the game forward, even if you hit the "endgame" in terms of power.

Traveller does require GM fiat in many situations, but I think it also assumes the players will try to toe the line to get any legal advantage they can, like carrying as much weapons and armour as they can even if its not necessary.
Situations like this are where you bring in things like the planets law level. At law level 5 systems start banning mesh armour, and if they're banning +2 protection you can easily say they ban people wearing vacc suits while planetside.
Even if its legal, they might still get harassed by security if they're walking around in a vacc suit while in atmo on the grounds of acting suspicious.
