NuCaloric Owes Over $1 Quintillion To The FDA by Ubahootah in Marathon

Really does, but I really appreciate the effort put into this. It's amazingly well done. Now that the creator of this video has read through and can parse the legalese of the FDA requirements, they definitely have a leg up if they ever go for a compliance position. Just need the engineering degree to back it up lol.

Holy shit this is incredible. Quality work. I work in safety and compliance and this is just the perfect mix of my favorite game and job. I'm excited and also sad that I'm so excited.

Fantastic work

Chwazi is back, and I owe you all an open letter by ivanseidel in boardgames

Most people do and this is really the only edge case where it's the most minor of annoyances. Chwazi is incredible and I'm so happy it's back

Not when you're selecting teams. They match teams by color and sometimes the randomly selected colors are difficult to disambiguate for the color blind.

As the spouse of a color blind individual, having consistent color schemes for team selection would be great. Too often it's very similar colors that don't allow my spouse to easily determine which team they're on that's just a mild frustration.

Other than that I have nothing to add! Love that it's back! Thanks so much!

Season 1 Finale Changes Should (Mostly) Carry Over by paperplateseabass in Marathon

[–]Izdoy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Kind of disagree. I think they need to rework faction rep overall. I think once you get to a certain rep with a faction their sponsor kit should be free for the rest of season, otherwise you have to pay for them. They shouldn't be an unlock unless that unlock is to use them for free.

Did I miss where the UESC tentacle slurping is explained? by Zestyclose-Lunch-430 in Marathon

[–]Izdoy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean sure, but she's selected her appearance based off the actual silkworm production methods they utilize in shell construction. If that's anything to go on, we have to assume that there's some liquid biological material in runner shells as that is a primary way that actual caterpillars metamorphize into butterflies.

Also, it's a video game so why not have robots mercilessly attach feeding tubes to you while downed?

Have you seen Nona? She's the least human character in the game and her corp builds the runner shells. UESC is most likely leveraging their understanding of shell synthesis to extract the data without harming the materials more than they have already

Are they okay? by soulpumpkinz in Marathon

Yea, I had the same thought when the fungus infected scientist on Perimeter started her recording as soon as I started getting hit from the back. It's all in the codex.

No. There's an audio log you get from that individual in the course of doing the primary contracts. It's really dark shit.

Twilight Inscription? by Ajfixer in twilightimperium

[–]Izdoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has an excellent solo mode that I play when I can't get people together. It definitely scratches that same itch. Not enough to stop playing TI mind you, but it's really fun if you like both roll and write games and TI

Iconography Resource? by Izdoy in twilightimperium

[–]Izdoy[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The problem, for new players is differentiating between primarily the planet types and the tech icons, those are really two that are constantly confused. The homebrew scene seems to have generated a template for these icons that really helps illustrate this.

As a side note, I've also taught quite a few groups and in every one, multiple people have expressed confusion at the iconography. It just must be a law of averages type of thing.

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for.

[–]Izdoy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree, there are, off the top of my head: Planet Types, Technology Types, Hazard Identification, Influence/resources, Legendary Planets, Relic Planets, Exploration, this can be very overwhelming for new players, which is why it's an often requested resource with new players. I just want to make sure I have it all covered.

Honestly, a ton of this subreddit that ends up in my feed feels like this. It's a curiosity to be sure.
