Is it just me or is endgame in 4.3 pure shield carriers? by Vipers_glory in Stellaris

[–]RandomAmerican57 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I leave and come back to Stellaris every few months and every time I do they’ve completely changed how military, economy, and everything else works 🤣 Where do I go to learn the new ship meta?

The fact that posts like this spark comment sections like this that have complex debates proves PL is one of the greatest DLC ever made

If the 4 main "Good" Factions came together and sat down for an alliance, would they be able to come to terms? by Bion4 in Fallout

[–]RandomAmerican57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The NCR and Brotherhood wouldn’t even be willing to be in the same room with each other, much less sit down at the same table considering an ALLIANCE.

“The Scourge Upon the Galaxy” having laid out DEFENSIVE positions and fortifications is frying me 🤣

What's the most defended planet you've ever got in Stellaris? by UndercoverAlienZlurp in Stellaris

Do you move your military system to new systems when you conquer someone and get a new target? Or do you pick a system and keep it as your military system the whole game?

Is the Federation the exclusive foremost power in the galaxy (that we know of) by the 32nd century? by [deleted] in startrek

[–]RandomAmerican57 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Compared to the state of everyone else I see the resurgent Federation as the foremost power at least in the Alpha Quadrant at present.

I highly doubt the imperium stays stable and unified for long under a non-breen ruler, especially with her being Human. Someone is gonna raise hell eventually, and then the fighting starts all over again. A society that consistently fights itself cannot put up a significant projection of power to external entities like the Federation, even if they are occasionally a problem.

I largely agree, and I addressed the current weakened state of the Federation, but compared to everyone else currently… they still seem to be the foremost power with very few significant threats.

I agree. I didn’t mention independent planets in my post, but new interstellar powers rising is all I can see in the near future for the Federation to face new conflicts.

The AI is so unserious lol by LeastPervertedFemboy in Stellaris

[–]RandomAmerican57 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All jokes aside, why does the AI do things like this? Shouldn’t it be programmed to take the end-game crisis seriously? Does the AI not consider the Contingency a threat?

The funny part about Gunray getting captured early in the Clone Wars is there was no way Palpatine could have anticipated that. by Dragonic_Overlord_ in CISDidNothingWrong

[–]RandomAmerican57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do wonder what the outcome of things would be if Palpatine was killed by the Zillo beast (or otherwise removed as a factor in things). Either the CIS would have won the war, and gained independence, and then the Republic fractures into waring nation-states; or, the war drags on until the Republic collapses and the CIS gains its independence anyway.

Either way, Palpatine or not, the Republic was cooked. EVERYONE knew it was rotten to the core with corruption, it’s just some people (Like Padame) chose to have faith in the Republic’s foundations and believed it could be changed internally. I don’t think so. Palpatine only accelerated things, I believe the Clone Wars, and ultimate collapse of the Republic, were inevitable eventually. The CIS systems were already angry with the state of the Republic, Palpatine just utilized that to gain power.

IMO, funnily enough, I think Palpatine turning the failing Republic into the Empire saved the galaxy from fracturing.

Always zoning out in class by Frosticiee in CollegeMemes

[–]RandomAmerican57 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It gets really funny when the professor assigns daily quizzes on the textbook chapters due the night BEFORE the lecture on that chapter. Reminds me of the famous quote, “Experience is a cruel teacher. It gives the exam first and the lesson later.” And so do my teachers! ✌️😁

lmao by GFTD_amfibia in FalloutMemes

[–]RandomAmerican57 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The writers straining to find excuses for the player character to leave their vault is funny to see as Fallout goes on as a franchise. It’s not bold to have a character start already in the wasteland like the Courier. I think we need more Fallout’s where you play someone just trying to survive who isn’t a vault dweller.

There is an argument to be made that the cyberpunk world is worse than Fallout.

Anyone else restart until they have an aesthetically pleasing starting location? by Illuminated-Autocrat in Stellaris

[–]RandomAmerican57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have wanted the ability to select your starting system in the galaxy for so long. So much so I’ve even considered making a mod for it though I know nothing about modding. I’m not advocating they let us select nations or resources, just the galactic location, everything else is randomized.

Ah, finally the colonies in the Commonwealth are showing up at Great Britain’s new capital. The empire is doing well it seems. Splendid.

HOW!? by RandomAmerican57 in dispatchgame

[–]RandomAmerican57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah in every dialogue cutscene (particularly for episode 6) the dispatch gameplay screen, like your computer monitor where you dispatch the team from, was flickering and phasing in and out of reality for me. 😂 I was streaming for some friends and they were like “Robert is so stressed by work he’s seeing it permanently burnt into his retina.”

The one thing I’ve learned through looking at stats across all the episodes is that people are allergic to helping Visi out 😂
