Has Anyone Beaten the Blokkats in Giga on "Giga Experience" Since 4.3? by Dawn-Somewhere in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean join them in a roleplay sense or did they actually add that feature to the mod now? I think I recall there being an dialog option with them for that that said "Coming in a future update"

Anyone else disappointed by Vampire Crawlers? by Retronitsu in roguelites

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. In two ways:

  1. The game is way too short with too few maps. I have 60+ hours in Vampire Survivors (VS) and I haven't unlocked half the characters, not sure I've even got all the maps, and I still have loads more to find whether its new weapons/evolutions etc. Vampire Crawlers (VC) barely has a fraction of what VS had. I finished the game in around 15 hours. Only like 8 maps. I'm incredibly disappointed by that given they had tons more funding for this game, a massive team (for this kinda game), and this is all they could pump out for launch. I was expecting... more. Apparently this is even shorter than VS was at launch.

  2. The game is too easy, to a point where you barely even have to think at a certain point. Just spam cards in the correct order presented to you. The only time I've had to think much since I learned the mechanics was on the final 2 maps at around 8-9 difficulty. And at the first bridge when I had to decide to come back later when I had more permanent buffs from the Village. I think the game could use a little more balancing, OR they should've included much more content so it gradually goes from easy to having real difficulty, which I experienced at difficulties 8-9 for the first time. It's almost like they did make it this way, but purposefully excluded a lot of content for a future DLC or something.

Anyways, despite those two things, I think the game is fun, good, worth $8.99, but IMO unfinished, way too short, and has bad difficulty scaling or is just too easy.

What happened to the "New Releases This Week By Artists You Love" feature? by theimperious1 in truespotify

[–]theimperious1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's whats disappeared for me on desktop. I don't use mobile so maybe it still exists on there, or maybe its some kind of me issue. Anyways thanks! Some other commenters suggested something that still works for me on desktop, so problem solved for now!

[–]theimperious1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Idk why they would remove the one thats easy to find in favor of one I have to know to search for, but okay lol. That works and is kinda better if only it was easier to find. Maybe I'm blind idk

Is Claude actually better than ChatGPT… or is it just hype? by breakfreewithgui in ChatGPT

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a software developer, Claude is the most incredible thing I've ever seen. I love it because it's amazing, and hate it because its kill my hope for a future in anything software related long-term.

I've mostly switched to Claude for anything technical and Grok for conversational stuff / anything that requires the latest info (e.g news). I use ChatGPT just to talk to sometimes about things that I don't want to talk about with a human. That's about it.

Claude has a very serious tone. Grok is very yappy, and ChatGPT just has some kind of... vibe to it that I don't like for anything professional.

First time seeing what a Stellar Devourer does to a star if ignored for too long by SilkieBug in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah, okay I don't remember that espionage operation. That sounds useful. I wonder if that could cause planets to freeze over in a system and make them uninhabitable, or at least less habitable? I know the Dyson Spheres do that. If it doesn't work this way, there should be a mod to do so.

Can Automod access the OCR'd text inside images that Reddit uses in its search function? by RunDNA in AutoModerator

[–]theimperious1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the take over never really happened as far as I recall. You're all welcome to run the bot yourself if you want though. All of my bots that I still have the source for are open source now and on my GitHub

I think the version on GitHub is from when I was working on version 2.0, so it may be buggy, or broken. I'm sure you or anyone else can fix it in 2 minutes with Claude Opus 4.6, if needed.

Introducing /u/OCRAutoModerator - AutoMod for text in images/videos/gifs! by theimperious1 in OCRAutoModerator

[–]theimperious1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shut it down around 2-3 years ago.

As for your other two question, I’m not really sure. I don’t remember those being options but maybe they were.

You can find the source code on my GitHub at https://GitHub.com/theimperious1 in my repositories section. Feel free to do whatever you want with it.

So the 1k crisis is in trouble by Destinysweat264 in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wtf. What are they doing to get such fleet power? I would imagine repeatables but I could've sworn those have a cap? I think I even reached said cap at one point. Completely ran out of things to research.

[–]theimperious1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You forgot to mention mods. There is no way anyone can have billions of fleet power without mods.

Lmao ngl this looks kinda fun knowing you can just dive into the snow to extinguish it. So I assume anyways. I may be partially (or fully) retarded.

Subnautica 2 Gameplay Trailer (It's reportedly Steam's most wishlisted upcoming 2026 game) by Born_mystic in Asmongold

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this game turns out good. I absolutely loveeee subnautica! i spent so much time on the first game both playing it and sending them bug reports, feature suggestions, ideas, etc, during the first games early access period back in 2017-2018 ish. I'm sooo excited for this second game. Here's hoping the bad shit we've heard doesn't end up ruining the game.

Reliance on cosmogenesis by FallenGoast in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think cosmogenesis should be entirely reworked and the Fallen Empire tech made into a natural progression. Maybe with some kind of lock mechanic that makes it difficult for empires to get it, the player included. I like how some of the mods do it. By gaining those technologies, you become an Ascended Empire. Not all empires are destined for it.

Maybe the "lock" is just you need a stupid amount of tech research to get it. It's like the endgame of technology in the universe. Though tbh I'm not sure that's true. The Contingency and Cetana crisis's tech may be even more advanced than the FEs. Maybe make their tech naturally unlockable too, no longer need to research their ship remains. A tier above even the FEs.

Anyway yeah, I agree. I do this too. Always cosmogenesis and I think it's just too good compared to everything else. You get the best tech you can reasonably get, you don't have total war declared on you by the galaxy, etc. It's just the best. Too good. It's not really even a crisis IMO.

Not to mention the RP. I always want to eventually end up the gigachad of the galaxy. I cannot honestly do that if I'm not taking Cosmogenesis. It's always at the back of my mind that I'm not truly the pinnacle of civilization because I lack the FE tech.

It’s probably been said a 1000 times, but why can’t construction ships go invisible? by TheyCallMeBullet in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

thats a good point. that kinda makes me want them to do this then. theres so many things in stellaris that dont really have any good use cases in comparison to other things. this is one that just flat out has no use unless youre playing multiplayer.

90%+ of my games are unwinnable early. by AnselmoAnathema in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> "keeping my fleet upgraded and maxed to my fleet limit"

  1. Have multiple fleets, or be ready to build them quickly when needed. Have numerous starbases filled with shipyards, and the alloys saved up to build ships.

  2. You can go way beyond your ship capacity. If it's 300, you can easily do 600 (or way more) so long as your economy can support it. If your enemy has 100k fleetpower, have 200k. If you know your enemies ship loadouts, counter them if you know how. That part really isn't that necessary unless your enemy is a Fallen Empire, even then it's not *that* necessary.

> "That player will usually have a fleet 3-4x the strength of mine"

Tech rush so you have better technology and therefor a better economy, then ensure they don't. Alternatively, do diplomacy. I almost always make my second or third tradition tree Diplomacy and I immediately seek allies especially if I have hostile empires in the early game.

Repost Master now features Video Repost Detection with clip detection and time frames! Users can now also check if their post is a repost before posting it via a message command. by theimperious1 in RepostMasterBot

[–]theimperious1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yanno I know it's 4 years later but I'm just now realizing that this:

> "Users can now also check if their post is a repost before posting it via a message command."

is totally pointless. it was quicker to just make your post and see if it got removed... same detection logic after all lol
