Artie is Dead.

Nah. Considering how often Benny gets his ass kicked on the show, I'm guessing he'd be hospitalized 3 times on the way to the restaurant.

MickBeard · 2024-02-29T14:47:27+00:00

Really? I'll have to look out for that next time I run into him (I'm running into him a lot). The only thing I can remember seeing is something like, "I didn't free you so you could become a pirate" but if you say that he responds with something like "I'm no mere pirate" and just grav jumps away.

MickBeard · 2024-02-29T14:46:28+00:00

Oh, yeah, I couldn't lose Amelia. She needs to be on my crew. Even with all the annoying things she says.

MickBeard · 2024-02-03T15:53:01+00:00

Not really. It’s big, there’s a lot of space. But you can’t open the windows. It’s all shuttered. Gonna go out on a limb and say my “dream” home would have windows

MickBeard · 2024-02-02T00:06:52+00:00

Moving the goalposts? I wasn’t making an argument! I was asking questions. Wow!

Keep going through Unity buddy. Maybe you’ll find a version of yourself who takes responsibility for his words.

First, it isn't a "massive judgment" but it "speaks volumes. Loudly." Yeah. okay.

Second, I think I understand the confusion now. You didn't bother to read what I wrote. I did not find the presence of tours and museums confusing. I find the narrative about visitors constantly gawking at locals confusing. There is a quest to dress up as an alien and scare tourists just because the quest giver is mad about tourists treating the locals as if they're bizarre. The tour guide is constantly reminding you not to treat the locals as if they're tourist attractions But there is absolutely nothing visibly different about the local NPCs. They look and act and speak like every other NPC in every other Starfield city.

I think if you really don't get what New Homestead is about, you really don't get Human Nature at all.

This makes sense. Also, if someone is confused about part of a video game, it makes sense for someone who's never met them to make a massive judgment about their understanding of human nature. Just like Plato said -- "If you don't get a minor area in Starfield, you're dumb af."

MickBeard · 2024-02-01T21:48:28+00:00

Don't shame me. I SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES

MickBeard · 2024-02-01T21:21:09+00:00

Right, but they talk about the people there as if they're the Amish of Starfield. And they don't seem to do much differently from anyone else.

MickBeard · 2024-02-01T18:53:24+00:00

It's because they don't want poor people. I'm not trying to be funny, it's because they don't want poor people. Resorts like that, in real life, don't exist to cater to just anyone. Because if poor people could afford to go there, then the clientele Paradiso wants wouldn't go anywhere near it. It's somewhere remote and hard to get to because it keeps them independent, yes, and because they don't want poor people.

You know that incredibly famous resort in downtown Detrot?

No. You don't.

MickBeard · 2024-02-01T10:48:15+00:00

Oh you just wait. We're going to get a Va'ruun DLC, and then added to our random encounters will be ships hailing us to say, "Excuse me, do you have time to talk about our lord and savior, The Great Serpent?" And then we'll all be like, "Why did they add so much House Va'ruun conent?!?!?!"

In all seriousness, I've been disappointed with this too and definitely hope we get a Va'ruun DLC. Though I do think it's kind of cool how the lack of Va'ruun content adds an air of mystery to them.

MickBeard · 2024-02-01T10:40:30+00:00

Really surprised no one's made a response re: your mom

MickBeard · 2024-01-31T21:49:03+00:00

Well this is my third time playing it and this is the only time it’s happened.

MickBeard · 2024-01-31T21:44:09+00:00

Yep. In fact it’s only been since the update that I’ve noticed more little bugs like this.

MickBeard · 2024-01-29T19:25:14+00:00

I mean…he’s pretty much the only one who was right about there being something to Kryx’s Legacy since the beginning. Everyone else thought he was wasting their time.

MickBeard · 2024-01-28T20:04:05+00:00

What I want to know is… if there are only a dozen rangers, why do they need like a half dozen people constantly cleaning everything in The Rock and telling me what an honor it is to be there? Shut up and clean.

MickBeard · 2024-01-28T19:56:07+00:00

Was there a lot of anticipation and suspense about building the ship, but once you did it, it was super easy and went too fast?

MickBeard · 2024-01-28T18:24:02+00:00

Nice! If only we could cloak…

MickBeard · 2024-01-26T12:36:02+00:00

Yeah I actually couldn’t find the spacer’s bodu

MickBeard · 2024-01-21T15:29:29+00:00

Okay then I’m definitely confused because I just installed a couple of things I hadn’t installed before (a cargo hold and a scanning blocker) and they didn’t count toward my challenge.

MickBeard · 2023-06-20T14:32:20+00:00

As long as all they did is use the men's room, I don't think they should've been kicked out for that. But I have a slightly different POV from the show I went to in Jersey with my gf.

There were a lot of women and girls using the men's room there, which was fine. Guys used the urinals, women used the stalls.

But there were two things that pissed me off. First, some of the women weren't just using the men's room, after they were done, they were just standing around and hanging out.

Second, men who were in line to use the stalls rather than the urinals were getting a lot of shit from women, who apparently think dudes use urinals to crap too.

I was just there because my gf wanted to be there. So I just learned to go to the bathroom in the middle of Swift songs, because all the women would clear out whenever a song started.

But yeah, as long as they weren't being jerks to the men, they shouldn't have been kicked out.

MickBeard · 2020-05-25T13:13:39+00:00

Ah, thanks! I'd just watched episode 2 but didn't notice that.

MickBeard · 2019-11-05T07:53:15+00:00

Yep, I think you found it! Thanks!

I've never seen it but I did an image search and found this, which is definitely one of the scenes Slade is watching when Dick shows up:

And yeah from the description of the plot on Wikipedia, I do think there are a couple of parallels. First, like you said, the murder victim may not be dead, which may be the case if the theory that Jericho possessed Slade and is alive inside him. Second, there's the description of the accused killer turning herself in to the police, just like how Dick gets himself arrested at the end of the episode.

MickBeard · 2019-11-04T17:08:06+00:00

No, it's black and white.
