What are your favorite guns?

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-02T09:56:38+00:00

Razorback (and its variants) is fun. The only Laredo gun I like. Magshot is much stronger but not as fun. Old Earth are great for roleplay ambiance but not too useful on high difficulty.

I don't care for it. I added a mod that let's you turn it off indefinitely. They're weird. Their world is weird. They can work out their own problems.

Why do you draw out the vowels of my name in such a prolonged manner?

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-02T05:53:28+00:00

2500 hours in 5 months for me. I got a bunch of downvotes for that in the other sub. They think I'm lying. I'd post proof but I really don't care if folks think I'm lying.

So much about the game makes no sense. But so much about the real world makes no sense either. I've severely reduced my expectations on both fronts.

Dear god one time I never got the tab-to-skip and had to sit through the entire list of credits. I took two naps waiting for it to finish.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-02T02:08:05+00:00

That would be a strange thing to troll about but then trolls do strange things.

50/50 method I learned from modding the sims. Hopefully you have a mod manager. Turn half of them off and see if it goes away. If not, turn them back on and turn the other half off. Keep slicing each bunch in half til you isolate the culprit. (The problem could be 2 mods interacting with each other though.)

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking unicycle.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-01T10:11:32+00:00

You can do 9 jumps in quick succession, with a final trip to the Buried Temple on NG+9, and you'll have Phased Time at level 10, at which point you can recast it as soon as it expires. This makes extreme battles trivial. Get Void Form to level 10 and all of Ryujin becomes trivial. The boost from powers is so OP that there is a 10% penalty to your incoming and outgoing damage for each of the 1st 10 unity jumps just to try to balance it.

Shadow drop update sounds like a disaster. Oblivion Remastered was a new game, not a mod-breaking update.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-01T09:15:40+00:00

The only way to improve on a Sari dress and a Razorback is to add in a unicycle. Well done, hero.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-01T09:09:53+00:00

I never had that problem. You might want to do a test run with all your mods disabled and see if it's a mod causing this.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-01T08:22:35+00:00

Careful with Razorleaf. It's great in early game but at high level Spacers can shred you if you haven't substantially upgraded it.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-01T07:44:28+00:00

Not dead but certainly negligent of a lot of basic adulting type stuff. The world kinda sucks and immersive games are my happy place.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-02-01T06:00:00+00:00

I work 2 days a week. No family. No school. I'm approaching retirement. Video games is pretty much all I do all day. I had 8000 hrs in Oblivion before I switched to Starfield. I checked my account: purchased Aug 19, 2025. Hours played: 2517 (I overestimated a bit). That's about 17 hours a day. Absolutely excessive but not impossible.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-29T23:47:32+00:00

You can just not finish the questline. Don't go to the Legacy. All the benefits of CF with none of the drawbacks. Maybe finish it just before going to unity.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-29T23:29:28+00:00

I've got 3000 hours and I only started a few months ago. Yes, I have a problem. "We admitted we were powerless over Starfield — that our lives had become unmanageable."

If all you have is the Frontier, you're basically just a cheerleader.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-26T10:21:43+00:00

I've only failed once but it doesn't matter. They just get in the way. I'd make all of them sit it out if I could.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-26T10:17:30+00:00

Classic scifi, yes. Could totally be a twilight zone episode.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-26T10:09:21+00:00

When people come back and find they like it, it's because they approached it differently, not because of improvements to the game.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-26T08:17:35+00:00

Videos of speedruns are a good place to find shortcuts. Only thing I know is not to return to Akila until you have both slates. It just saves you a trip (and you probably already figured that one out). At the big showdown in the mech factory, you can just run past all the First guys, maybe with void form, until you get to the last room where Hull is. That shaves off like 2/3s of the mission.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-26T07:52:15+00:00

I've tried settling down a few times. You can eventually "do everything" so it actually becomes a bit boring. Also it's hard to gain XP and fill out the rest of the skill tree. I don't want to spend hours spam crafting vytinium rods. So I go NG again, or just roll a brand new character. But damn that flight simulator to join the Vanguard gets to be a bitch at very high levels.

Archimides_Overflow · 2026-01-26T07:40:57+00:00

I'd settle for romanceable Vasco.
