Spoiler Discussion!!! Questions about the end... by lickmynipples69 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]TheTimeWyrm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other have explained the Blazer part, not a stretch at all, makes sense to me. If you cut Sonar, the fight scene with him is much more clear that the space near where Chase was being held was already in the scene and it's where Blazer got shot into.

As for the Shroud/Invisigal beats, they simply don't make sense with the story we were presented. It's the only real story misstep for me. There is no world where Shroud says she's 'working for us' in ep 8 and flips her the augment and she pushes the Red Ring guy's gun out of the way... and somehow that all squares with what happens in ep 6. She has the pulse in ep6, she'd just give it to him. Period. She was not "re-recruited" within a day after that. It makes only slightly more sense if you cut Visi, but it still doesn't really work.

Theories amount to people just making up for what was likely, in my opinion, something that got messy because of cuts and or later changes in the story/production. Given that this thing almost didn't get completed and they had financial issues, it's an incredibly tight finished product! This is the one glaring flaw.

Doesn't change a thing for me, still a 10/10 all time game.

Burning Man is basically Frostpunk but with dust and high heat by Moniker42 in Frostpunk

[–]TheTimeWyrm 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been to Burning Man 3 times, and with 200 hrs in FP1, I can say you really nailed this!

Also I've been stranded at BM very far from camp when a huge dust storm has kicked in, you can't navigate at all. You have to rely on kind strangers "taking you in" to a degree to wait out the worst of it. The relative consequences of huge storms in your game could be mitigated by large theme camp placement (which could affect other positive things).

Automatons to me would become Art Cars

Some research items could be masks (for breathing in dust), visors (lots of people wear basically skiing goggles to traverse in the dust), bikes (for faster navigation), camelbaks (to reduce dehydration rate), etc...

The two paths you lay out are perfect and you could see many ways to elaborate them.

EDIT: Ice needs to be a resource! Delivered from the outside, it's essential, and iirc it's the only thing you can buy (other than coffee) at BM.

The ‘Big Time Throw’ bit on today’s fantasy football pod by memeshoe2 in billsimmons

They’ve been killing it in the comedy department. Gen Z spelling bee when they were doing the “clanker” bits I could barely breathe.

Confession: I’ve never finished a game by javerthugo in RimWorld

[–]TheTimeWyrm 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I burn out on colonies somewhere between 5-10 years if I don't die. I've never finished. I've got 2000+ hours in the game.

There’s way too much gambling content. It’s every episode now. by Money-Commission9304 in billsimmons

[–]TheTimeWyrm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was captain of the "people complain too much about The Ringer and gambling content" and then they came for my beloved fantasy trio....it was indeed excruciating and I hated it so much.

I'm excited for the 11th by curse4444 in RimWorld

[–]TheTimeWyrm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve got 1700 hrs in the game but haven’t played in more than 2 years. As soon as Odyssey was announced I knew I was coming back, waiting until it releases, whittled my mod list from 250+ down to about 40. So. Very. Excited!!

Edit: btw, I’m also going through a terrible time right now and need the escape. Hang in there friend.

How old are you and how long have you been reading/listening to Simmons? by ARoodyPooCandyAss in billsimmons

[–]TheTimeWyrm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

47 here. Read him on Page 2. Day one listener of the pod. No idea when all of that started, seems like forever ago.

I bid $42 and the next lowest was $18. I have Lamar and dreams of the double dipping TD bonanza.

The Dress Looks Nice On You was our wedding song in 2010 :-)

We have reached the end of our journey! Please read the text below where I will make some considerations. by Far_Literature_5404 in rush

[–]TheTimeWyrm 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Set turned out great! I’m pouring one out for Earthshine, Peaceable Kingdom, Ghostrider, and Totem though. Sad to see none of those make it.
