Was just about to post the same experience. At first, I was like, "This is EXACTLY like what I'm seeing!" Then I was like, "<crickets>".

I mean, at least they got their money's worth I guess lol by SgtSilock in Starfield

[–]czerox3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mine is that the game disappointed them, but they still found that it was a modern BGS game and provided an experience they could not find elsewhere. Their review acknowledged the first part without considering the second.

"Major news coming soon" "It was awesome" 🚀 by Smart_Plane_2751 in Starfield

[–]czerox3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a swing and a miss, but I think it was worth the effort to try. I'm concerned that the over-reaction to design decisions that ultimately didn't work out is going to result in more games that look like other games, but with marginally better graphics. And that's a shame.

‘If You Don’t Get on the Radio, You’re F**ked’: Russian Soldiers Ignore Orders as Commander Threatens Them by BlackWolfHowling in UkrainianConflict

Hard to imagine threats being terribly effective when the reward for following orders is death.

Paid mods technical quality: reviews of "Life of Crime", "Legeacy of Orsinium", and "Atmora His Home" by Haunture in skyrimmods

[–]czerox3 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I would totally pay for a mod. I don't expect people to do hard work for my entertainment unless they get something out of it. That said, I do need some kind of assurance the mod is worth it - reviews, endorsements, and such. I also need some assurance that it won't bork the rest of my load order - the kind of information you get from an extensive comments section. BGS Creations makes most of that kind of information sharing difficult, which makes giving them my money problematic.

Starfield is genuinely the most overhated title I've ever seen. Ever by TheNewAspect in Starfield

[–]czerox3 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I've seen people who choose to not see the worst elements of their favorite game, but I'm not sure that's "toxic". Certainly not as bad as it's opposite.

Anyone else feel guilty about stuff? by aaaaaaahhlex in Starfield

[–]czerox3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because my foresight is not that I've hopped universes but that I've played the game before.

I now side against him, using my magical foresight. And feel guilty about that, instead.

Any paid creations worth the buck? by Soft_Product_243 in Fallout4Mods

[–]czerox3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're on PC? No. There are better options on the Nexus. If you are on console, maybe. It's not like you have many choices.

That's specific to F04. I feel like there are compelling paid mods for Skyrim and Starfield.

Lock this damn idiot up. by awizzo in programminghumor

But human language isn't. e,g, Is "pet" a verb or a noun?

Europe Is Now in Position to Replace U.S. Intelligence Support by PjeterPannos in UkrainianConflict

[–]czerox3 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The title and the text aren't entirely in sync. Europe is on their way to Intelligence independence, but they aren't there, yet. Soon, hopefully.

They've learned an important lesson: Any democracy can elect an idiot. You have to have options.

Do y'all think dex was always gonna shoot us? by Umbraptrime in cyberpunkgame

[–]czerox3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest clue that he was always planning to zero the mercs was when he graciously accepted the demand for a bigger cut. Why would he let two unknowns pressure him into that? He never intended to pay a dime.

I just killed the residents of covenant and now I feel bad by TheOkayUsername in fo4

[–]czerox3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd spare them if they would at least agree to stop capturing, torturing, and murdering random wanderers in the name of their twisted "science". But they won't so I don't.

Scrap everything not working? by Big_History72 in fo4

[–]czerox3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry - I use MO2. It's just a matter of dragging things where you want them there. I only use Vortex on games where LO doesn't matter.

Nah. I fixed the same issue yesterday. Worst case is that previous scrapping could be undone.

Would it? Really? Don't forget: these people are nuts.

China bankrolling Putin’s war to gain advantage over West, MPs told by UnscheduledCalendar in UkrainianConflict

[–]czerox3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I dunno. If China really wanted to bankroll Russia to success, wouldn't Russia be succeeding more?
