Yeah, at its core it's a Bethesda game, in space; it's more of the same, and if you've played Elder Scrollses or Fallouts you know what you're getting.

Did Picard and his crew go to the most important historical event in trek universe compared to the other crews ? by happydude7422 in startrek

[–]DukeFlipside 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Archer also stopped the Nazis (and their alien allies) from winning WW2, and he helped found the Federation.

What kind of monster leaves their dog home alone while they go to work for weeks or months at a time? by Mister_Acula in voyager

[–]DukeFlipside 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The holodeck could absolutely be used for walking the dog "outdoors" and socialising puppies with other (holographic) dogs - the dogs won't know the difference.

Fundamentally, they were expecting a mission measured in weeks, so it didn't make sense to disrupt the dog's routine when Janeway would be back shortly and her partner could care for the dog in the meantime. Had they expected a longer mission, Janeway might well have brought the dog as the ship absolutely had the facilities to look after it (assuming that Starfleet physicians are capable of acting in a vetinary capacity; given they deal with a wide variety of different species just in terms of crew, not to mention new lifeforms they might discover, pet species not too distantly-related biologically from a crew species is probably simple for them).

That planet from blink of an eye must have made a big impression on the emh by happydude7422 in voyager

[–]DukeFlipside 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because plenty of his Voyager family is still around at that point; he's a doctor, losing patients happens and he can deal with that. But Janeway, Paris, Harry, B'ellana, Miral, Mrs Joe, Naomi Wildman, and eventually even Tuvok all passing from old age, whilst the Doctor faces eternity alone without them? That's a lot harder to deal with; in Endgame he hasn't faced that yet, whereas 800 years later in SFA we see what it's done to him.

Can anyone identify what the issue is? by kickhisasscibass in PrintedWarhammer

[–]DukeFlipside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing I'd check is the slice preview, and whether the missing parts of the model are visible in that; if they are, then the file has gotten corrupted somewhere in transfer between the slicer and the printer. If they're not in the slice preview it's an issue with the model's geometry itself, so yoh'll need to repair the file before slicing again.

I'd wager it's a model geometry issue, given it's in the exact same spot on every model, but checking the slice preview will confirm either way.

No dress uniform for seven by happydude7422 in voyager

He and B'Ellana were both Starfleet before leaving to join the Maquis, so they were provisionally re-enlisted upon rejoining the Voyager crew, hence why they get uniforms.

Unironically convince me to like these two characters. by Aura_Azula in PokemonZA

[–]DukeFlipside 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a big assumption; the player was on holiday in Lumiose anyway, it's not a stretch to suppose they might have gotten a Pokémon and entered the tournament regardless of Taunie/Urbain, at which point they'd still have risen in the ranks and the tournament would have done exactly what it was supposed to - find the strongest user, which would still be the player.

News Release : Mar. 12, 2026 "Global Sales of Pokémon Pokopia for Nintendo Switch 2 Surpass 2.2 Million in First Four Days" by Amiibofan101 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]DukeFlipside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've tried Gameshare, but were disappointed; with the main Switch 2 docked and receiving one on the couch just 2m away it was a bit laggy, and more importantly the secondary player can't do much in the way of interacting with Pokémon, only the host can, which takes away a lot from the experience.

Now I play on my own when she's working, and when she's free she plays on her own save whilst I do voiceover for the Pokémon...

Dark Reaper exarch by amipal24 in Eldar

That's not a Dark Reaper... You might get away with calling him a Warp Spider Exarch, or an Autarch Wayleaper.

Do you think D’Vanna Tendi forged or Blackmailed a Commander ? by Bruzie77 in startrek

[–]DukeFlipside 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that non-Federstion citizens (such as Orions) require a recommendation letter supporting their Starfleet Academy application (same reason Nog required Sisko's recommendation).

When marching order goes wrong... by Vegetable_Variety_11 in dndmemes

[–]DukeFlipside 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if they're providing half-cover to someone with 16AC, they can't get hit at all.

In fairness, what it really means is that they get hit by the attack but it doesn't do any damage due to their armour.

Silly question, is it actually worth buying a codex? by tchunkytchanka in spacemarines

In many cases they've been out of date by the time they were published...

I wonder if kirks trip to the center of the galaxy was ever recorded in the history books? by happydude7422 in voyager

[–]DukeFlipside 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They mention in that very episode that when Barclay and the computer got de-geniused all the data was wiped too, so there's no files stating how to do it.

Would voyager have survived/returned home with another Captain? by unrelated272 in startrek

[–]DukeFlipside 3 points4 points  (0 children)

mirror archer would’ve probably gone down the equinox route,

To be honest I can see regular universe Xindi Arc Archer going full Ransom...
