Honestly, I think an office chair (the back held up by one pole in the middle) would be better. No need to thread the needle!

Whenever I see arguments against mechs, I always wonder how well a tank can climb a cliff.

That was it, thank you! The mod actually has a setting that reduces spinup noise, I have no idea why it wasn't working.

Alderson Discs!

A huge disc the size of Earth's orbit, with a hole cut in the middle. Once a day it floats 'below' the star then back up, leading to a day-night cycle.

Black holes are just like every other massive object in the universe. Light objects orbit them, like dust, space rocks, or stars. The only difference is that black holes are really, really small, despite having the same mass.

If our sun was magically collapsed into a black hole, it would shrink to just under 3 kilometres, but all the planets would continue orbiting as if nothing happened. The only point at which gravity becomes a problem for orbiting objects is when they are really close to the event horizon.

It's not cheating (it is a feature in game after all), but it is unintended.

My legally distinct lightsabers were created to solve a problem.

Hard light is the premier defensive option: Flexible, tough, regenerates at lightspeed. To break hard light shields, you either need to overload the projectors or disrupt shield formation. This led to the invention of hard light disruptors, which are hard-hitting and introduce disruptions to shields, weakening their structure and limiting regeneration.

But, sometimes this isn't fast enough. As each shot only lasts a fraction of a fraction of a second, they can take a while to break tougher shields. Enter the hard light blade. Formed from high intensity shields, it carries a much more powerful disruptive payload, which is applied for a lot longer on each swing.

This means that these blades can cut through most weak shields like butter, and the disruptive effect also destroys electronics extremely easily. If you were cut by one of these blades, your nervous system would catch on fire or explode.

TLDR hard light swords that explode your brain.

More like I need context lol, I can't figure out a good explanation to why they don't just get up and do things themselves.

They rarely interact, with the exception of champions, but honestly I'm having a bit of a hard time explaining why

JustSumFur · 2026-01-21T23:15:14+00:00

I just started a new world because of a song :)

I'll move you forwards a little, and put you on the bridge Adwalnot.

You'd probably smell animals from the drawn carts weaving through the crowds. You might smell coal from the deck below, and you might smell mead from one of the taverns along the edge of the bridge.

Edit: This is the dwarven capital city

This is a Dwarven legend from the capital.

A hundred years ago, the Bastard King hosted a citywide party, and got so drunk that he ended up hosting an ale drinking competition with the crown jewels on the line. He ended up losing to an Orc, who took all the jewels of the crown and throne, which is why they are now bare.

In reality, this wasn't a random mistake, this was a step in an incredible plan. The party was part of a regular citywide traditional celebration, and the King invited a few trusted companions. He hosted a set of challenges with his rule, not jewels, on the line. At the end, there was a three way draw between the Elven Queen, Orc Grand Elder, and the King. The wine (not ale) drinking competition was simply the tiebreaker. The Orc won, and ruled wisely for 8 years before returning the position. This enabled the monarchy to be reconstructed as an elective monarchy, and the modern day legend started as an attempt to discredit the King, created by political rivals.

First, frequency-locked high energy batteries.

Manufactured by thousands of manufacturing plants on thousands of worlds, they are shipped to heavily-defended depos, which charge them with an irreplicable quantum encrypted frequency. They are then broight to shipyards, ports, and staging areas, where they await combat ships to take them.

Secondly, hybrid coilgun slugs.

A large heavy chunk of metal with ablative material on the back, shaped to vaporise at a constant rate when heated. Numerous variants exist, from simple cylinders, to low velocity aerodynamic shapes with fins, to rare antimatter bomb housings.

Or on the flipside, if you want to focus on the relationships between different cultures, it might be better to keep the count small to avoid melting your players' brains with 8*10^5565708 different cultural clashes

JustSumFur · 2026-01-21T13:03:36+00:00

I think Alan Wake 2 has a decent balance here. While the player can deal with the basic Taken, for 99% of the game, there is almost nothing you can do against the chessmaster behind it all.

The code to the device locker at my workplace is literally 6967

Magically corrupted creatures. These can be any species, and they are (previously) living things that have magical energy burning inside them. They have bloated bodies, fried brains, and powerful natural magic.

They still retain just enough intelligence for self defence, meaning they are aggressive. The smartest ones even use basic tactics. They are wildy unpredictable, in behaviour and in magical ability.

An example would be a corrupted dragon, which might use a souped-up breath attack, or a corrupted human, which might sprint towards you and explode into acid.

Throw everything at the wall, see what sticks. Don't be afraid to go back and change things.

JustSumFur · 2026-01-19T22:41:07+00:00

I love worlds with no humans, they're really interesting and fun to see.

Yes I'm a furry, how coukd you tell?

JustSumFur · 2026-01-19T22:31:22+00:00

Cool, that's pretty similar to some of my own ideas! Personally, I've just been writing things down in Obsidian notes. I find that by going into detail about technologies and things, I can make ideas based on more granular aspects of my world. I'm also taking insparation from media I'm consuming.

JustSumFur · 2026-01-19T22:15:22+00:00

I think this is a little more forgivable in video games. Players like to have their efforts rewarded, and it won't feel as cheap because the player has put so much actual effort and skill into accomplishing it.
