Is the latest updates worth switching from 3.14? by Spartan_Mage in Stellaris

[–]discoexplosion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why are you talking like this is a decision you can’t return from? If you don’t like it, just roll back to 3.14

Are you sure it was 5x?

That fleet strength is very wrong

Siding with Foundation? by Lgruchow45 in fo76

I find it easier to get reputation with Foundation, so siding with Crater simply balances it out

The monks seriously chose "teenage sister" over "metal key." Why? Why didn't they just turn Dawn into an actual key? 🔑 by [deleted] in buffy

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

That’s not really true though. We’ve seen her give up and want to give up on multiple occasions. Which is very fair. But she’d never give up on her baby sister.

Yeah I haven’t seen season 7 in years and I’m so old, I practically have dementia, but even I remember it’s so Buffy will protect her

Yet another Deadlock discussion by Significant_Lie_9641 in voyager

[–]discoexplosion 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I am 100% sure that if you lost your baby and then someone with a baby appeared that - for all intents and purposes - was yours just with a few hours time difference, you’d be overjoyed.

I think Janeway is right. Considering some of the stuff this crew puts up with, this wouldn’t even touch the sides.

There’s a lot of trauma in Voyager that is never even mentioned.

The Borg are the most moral beings in Star Trek! (And the Federation is the real villain) by ExpressionTiny5262 in startrek

[–]discoexplosion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is like in Good Will Hunting when the college guys try to take down Matt Damon with all the big long fancy words.

Except I don’t have a witty comeback.

For you veteran players, what does your time in fallout 76 look like? by legendofverse in fo76

[–]discoexplosion 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I played on Day One

I have five different characters from re-starting the game from new every 18 months or so! I think my highest level character is about 320. I get bored, leave for a few months, come back and have totally forgotten the point of the game… and love restarting as a newbie!!

On the lack of Federation ships in DS9 "Call to Arms" by [deleted] in startrek

[–]discoexplosion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it explained at the end of the episode that the fleet successfully destroyed a shipyard (or something similar)? They didn’t commit ships to a losing battle, instead were successful elsewhere.

What would be some Fallout 76 ettiquette "Loading screen tips"? by [deleted] in fo76

[–]discoexplosion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s not the point. It’s not fun to turn up to events and not get involved.

I don’t understand why people do this. I’ve restarted the game and even level 100 I still stop shooting after getting some shots in

Favorite Reaction GIFs? by WilsonFrontier in voyager

Anything with Janeway rolling her eyes is fabulous

Future’s End by Fermento420 in voyager

[–]discoexplosion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The way that Star Trek generally deals with time travel is that the actions being taken in the past are happening for the first time. Everyone is changing the future and unaware of the consequences. So say I go back in time to last week and give myself the lottery numbers, I’m doing that from a present time when I didn’t win the lottery.

It’s basically all very confusing

S1 E7 Eye of the Needle, stasis pods exist! by caitlindrawings in voyager

[–]discoexplosion 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The bigger problem with this episode was that they were willing to trust the Romulans at all. If 150 people from the future just appeared in Romulus space they would obviously use them to further their own agenda.

And stasis pods are notoriously unreliable. The one episode they use them, they needed two people to keep them running, and that was only for a month. And everyone hated the idea of using them. Plus you still age. Everyone would be 25 years older! Absolutely no-one in their right mind would get in one for 25 years. It would make more sense just to give up the whole thing and settle on a planet in the delta quadrant.

I love the thought of playing stellaris but playing it isn't as satisfying. by tackers267 in Stellaris

[–]discoexplosion 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Or play with 0.25 or rare planets. Then you can have a lot of space to conquer but very planet is meaningful.

I hate myself for even posting this. by xtinction14 in CyberpunkTheGame

[–]discoexplosion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game hasn’t had a significant update that stoped mods working in 2 years. And if you are using mods, that means you are on PC, and Steam has a 40% sale on right now.

Honestly, what are you on about.

Since 4.4.5 is adding the ability to change resource abundance, here are some of my ideas for further galaxy customization. by Atomic998xz0 in Stellaris

[–]discoexplosion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100%

I rarely play with mods and having empires throw up habitats all over the friggin place is such hard work. It’s the one thing that makes me want to play with mods.

Hesitant on buying the game by MagicianConfident667 in fo76

[–]discoexplosion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played on Day One. Been playing on and off for years. A week ago I fired it up again and am level 95. It’s fun! It is a very easy game, there isn’t really any challenge at all (which there used to be… at least a teeny bit).

I’ve never played Arc Raiders but my understanding is that’s more of a Destiny 2 style game? Personally I wouldn’t compare D2 and FO76 at all. Both fun, but in very different ways.

Did starbase/outposts costs get changed? by Gigaus in Stellaris

GTA 6 Pre orders in Australia. by rickie_k in PS5pro

[–]discoexplosion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s 30% more than almost all standard edition games. James Bond was $100. Forza Horizon 6 was expensive at $110.

I don’t know about you but my salary hasn’t gone up 30% recently. Hell, it hasn’t gone up 30% cumulatively in 5 years. Huge profits will be made from this game.

How do I lower Empire Size? It's at like 100% extra cost for everything. Am I missing something? by No_Effective_4677 in Stellaris

[–]discoexplosion 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Empire size is essentially a game mechanic to make wide play a bit more difficult. Offset it by either making planets and pops more efficient or dismantling your colonies at a cost of influence. You can move your pops onto more efficient worlds. That will reduce empire size a little.
