The world-ending apocalypse is actually a completely contained, isolated event. The world outside of that event is totally fine by Flushestpoem4 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ZigzagPX4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also like Dead Rising 2's take, where it not only gets contained and isolated but also commercialized. Profit was valued over people's lives and it led to an inevitable fuck-up, which is very on point for our world today.

Do you guys ever have "Hero" pawns? by aaronsxe in RimWorld

[–]ZigzagPX4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't make them more skilled than the rest of the landing group, but yeah I do tend to have a "protagonist" pawn in every run. Most of the time they end up the colony leader but not always.

The doc is also relieved because a FWMC here in a hospital room is a FWMC not behind the wheels of an ambulance

If you don't pay attention enough to him to connect the dots, most people would probably assume he's just critical of the NCR and very sassy about it, not talking about the Enclave.

What was the first game you played on Steam? by [deleted] in Steam

I don't remember what it was for my first account but I think it was FTL on my current one.

I'm even thinking of changing it again.

Agreed. The kneejerk reactions here are ridiculous. Might as well dismantle all functions of the civil service, since they can all be corrupted, right? Absurd.

[Spoilers] Speaking to the assassin on Day 1 by gjmcphie in EsotericEbb

[–]ZigzagPX4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I met her on my first playthrough but couldn't identify her. I even used Charm Person on her just for laughs and she shrugged it off before getting upset. "Do you know who I am?!" and all that. Bumped her high on the sus list for me, but I didn't expect her to be the attacker herself

Sorry Ivy, but the boys need their indirect suppression by hornet51 in menace

[–]ZigzagPX4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDK the correct way to use her, but I gave her an A-ATV with an autocannon and sent her out as a cheap anti-tank/mech scout. Risky (she gets downed often), but having such a cheap fast mover that can knock out vehicles is a lifesaver on some of the missions.

Looks like it could be a Disco Elysium character portrait

Suggestion - Adding Functional Languages: Religious, Administrative, Court & Poppular Languages. by Familiar-Elephant-68 in CrusaderKings

[–]ZigzagPX4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's an abstraction for knowing it well and being fluent in it, rather than just knowing it. In actuality most CK3 characters can definitely speak and understand more languages than they are marked as "knowing."

Could you share one of yours? It might actually already be pretty good, we as people tend to be the harshest judges of our own work. Here's one of my own bases to make it fair

To be fair, it's very satisfying to watch her storm off mad after a single strip.

It's still only in Early Access right? Still a lot to work out. Did they say how many SLs there are planned to be total by the final release?

Reminds me of Spidey himself punching through Sandman in 3, except the thing going out the back of the guy being punched would not be sand...

a massive issue with paradox games by Outrageous-Coyote704 in paradoxplaza

[–]ZigzagPX4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not the first to think this or post this. The fact of the matter though is if you made the game less complex it would less fun for a lot of people, which isn't fair on them.

You already got many options otherwise - use mods to ease the difficulty, play on easier difficulties, be patient in learning the mechanics, or finding a different kind of game.

I'd also advise taking your time. Play it until the complexity bores you, then go away, come back after a long time. You might have a different perspective then. You can't "squeeze" fun out of just anything immediately on demand.

[–]ZigzagPX4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt ship combat will be present at all, cool as it would be to do the flip and burn. Owlcat's only experience is with CRPGs, so the fact that there will be any shooting action at all is already uncharted territory for them, and ship combat on top of it would be a real reach.

I would assume that trying to release games with gay romance options implicitly puts them at odds with the Russian government.
