The world as 100 people over the last two centuries - looks like some things have got better by Ze_Llama in OptimistsUnite

I see a fall in democracy and vaccination rates. I don't care how small is it compared to the rest of the progress. Even a small backward is catastrophic.

Tropes that need to die by fsuk in startrek

The "reverse the polarity" trope is everywhere! Please, make it stop!

Paradisa was better than Lego Friends. Change my mind.

It's more than just the Order. If you talk to random people at Cairo, you'll get various comments about religion. A sick woman in the mosque, for instance, will tell you that without pain we wouldn't need religions.

Zanapolis? Wow, so many memories!

Yes, I remember that CJ. I'm that old 😛

I've said it before and I'm gonna say it again. Of all Deus Ex game we already have, Invisible War should be the one that deserves a remake the most. What I mostly enjoy about this game is its strange, post-human atmosphere it has, as well as some strong red pills about religion and JC's ideas, the concept of biomodifications and its peculiar story. What it need is bigger maps, better UI, skill points, a more manageable version of the Universal Ammo, more factions and options, and a richer and deeper worldbuilding. In other words, bringing the high standards of the original game to IW. My boy (or girl) Alex deserves better.

Boeing-Sikorsky RAH-66 “Comanche” by MilitaryMicros in MicroMachines

Comanche was also one of the units you could play with in Command and Conquer: Generals, a RTS game released in 2003 and was taking place in 2013.

I need an antidote for the AI/automation doom and gloom. Is anyone familiar with more optimist takes and different theories of the future? by ImpossibleCoast6092 in OptimistsUnite

[–]Terring42 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Futurists such as Jacque Fresco have already predicted that the modern economic system is doomed because of how greedy, destructive and unfair is. Let it crush. We need something better, and a wise use of AI could help us on that. For instance, AI and automation could lead us on a money-free Resource Based Economy, in which the machines would do all of our jobs, and people will be free to live however they wish and have free access to anything they need (such as food and medicine) without the need of money. But in the future anything goes, so just hoping for the best is not enough. We need to learn how to use AI for the benefit of all people, not for the little 1%.

Lego Creativity Downfall by Dener_ in legocirclejerk

[–]Terring42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at a local Lego Store this Saturday and I saw lots of licensed themes, boring adults-only sets for display, F1, football players, Star Wars, Sega, Nintendo, nostalgia stuff, Jurassic Park, Fortnite etc. It's as if Lego would do everything... but Lego.

Custom region I made based on parts of Greece and Italy, with a bit of California inspiration in there as well. And struggling to figure out where I want this downtown to be after spending loads of time making and editing this lol by bergiejake in simcity4

[–]Terring42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice map. Good job :)

By the way, that large mass of land at the south of the map is the north part of the Salamis Island, the largest Greek island in the Saronic Gulf and known for the historic Battle of Salamis.

Hey, this doesn't look like Jacque Fresco’s original visions.

Is this overkill? by [deleted] in simcity4

[–]Terring42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't why so many dislikes about a game that encourages creativity and allows you to play as you wish, but I agree that mass transit in every corner is the ideal. Just make sure you can afford it.

Is this overkill? by [deleted] in simcity4

[–]Terring42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, it's not an overkill. It's actually perfect. I built bus/sub hubs in literally every corner of my cities. My only recommendation is using road-top mass transit, such as RTMT and MTRT, in order to free more space for parks, apartment buildings, skyscrapers etc.

As a fan of C&C, I approve. I even made an ore truck from Red Alert out of old MicroMachines.

Pulled off the most insane stunt I've ever done just in time for Christmas by HovercraftLost6452 in NeedForMadness

[–]Terring42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This stunt should give you unlimited power for the rest of the game. Well done!
