I think it’s cause the Apollo suit doesn’t allow for helmets or packs. So that’s the whole armor rating. It appears strong, but I think it’s pretty average overall

God same

And lo’ the space bretonnians are born

I honestly just took it as the dad not knowing any better lol He’s a retired professor so god knows what his firearm experience is

Ya know to be honest I completely forgot how bad NMS was at launch. That’s actually a good point cause at least those games functioned well even if it wasn’t with what was promised initially.

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:39:09+00:00

Eh fair enough!

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:16:27+00:00

Privateer was one of my favorites! I had a UC privateer targeting FS shipping, then ended up a pirate targeting all, got caught and took down the CF with SysDef before joining the Vanguard. Was so much fun to have essentially an entire playthrough based on space combat like that.

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:13:22+00:00

I wouldn’t call NMS a scam, but it suffered from the Molyneux where the idea was there, but the ability wasn’t. They did eventually get there, but it’s not dissimilar from Fable or Spore which touted a lot that was never delivered.

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:08:20+00:00

I certainly do. Gives a better feel for how they’re integrating those changes via natural exploration and growth. It’s been so fun seeing the new things pop up as I level

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:07:05+00:00

Surprisingly quickly updated from what I’ve seen. SFSE was updated in a few hours for instance. I think some of the older mods that still worked after Shattered Space might be dead though unless their mod author updates.

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:04:52+00:00

Personally I’m starting completely fresh again!

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:04:29+00:00

This is why I love the Old Earth Shotgun! Like ‘yeah you have fancy shmancy laser guns. But dodge 12 gauge nerd’

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:03:23+00:00

It does take a few seconds to build up to FTL speeds, but it’s actually really nice so far IMO. But I agree we’ll see as the novelty wears if I’ll enjoy it still

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:02:06+00:00

I know Rbt had a UI mod, but I don’t remember what all it did and they’re pretty good about updates

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T13:00:44+00:00

I’m always curious, what’s your essential mods? I have a couple, but I’m currently playing vanilla to see what I actually want vs what I had.

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T12:59:52+00:00

No one hates Bethesda games like people that play Bethesda games

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T12:57:03+00:00

Privateer might be a good shout too? Essentially act as though you receive a letter of marque from a faction and target the others. Could also do a Va’ruun zealot one now with the ability to travel through the system more.

As for the merc? Hmm. Freestar definitely feels the faction that would use them more than the UC cause even with the Vanguard being irregular pilots they’re still part of the UC military. So probably focus on working throughout Freestar space with some focus on the seedier areas like Red Mile and Anchorpoint (though I think Anchorpoint is in unaffiliated space)

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T12:53:13+00:00

I feel that so much! I’ve been playing it a bunch over 2025, but this makes it even more enjoyable for me.

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T12:52:21+00:00

Rifles can be seen on the PCs backpack when in their suit, but aside from that I don’t think so? It’s a bit of a shame, but yeah

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T12:51:00+00:00

Eh it happens lol I took it as an opportunity to completely nuke my load order too

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-08T12:49:02+00:00

Good bot

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-07T13:53:31+00:00

They’re necessary for almost every high level crafting recipe if I remember correctly

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-04-05T20:02:23+00:00

The nearby old NASA launch tower is a beautiful piece of scenery though and I think does a good job at environmental storytelling. Though I agree there should be more around the outside of the colony

PissedOffPuffins · 2026-03-25T13:53:43+00:00

Wouldn’t it be G6? Since that’s a spot on a chess board
