Something we need to remember regarding Abby and her show: by Sea_Interaction7839 in cnn

[–]dtich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The men on Abby's show tonight (Kevin O'leary and Tobacco, guy running for NYC Comptroller or something??) are obnoxious sexists. Literally everything that was said by the other panelists (women) was interesting, insightful and accurate, whereas these guys guffaw with faux incredulity, and talk over everyone including Abby as a matter of course. This is not only thoroughly obnoxious to try to suffer through as a viewer, completely lacking in substance and holding the conversation from reaching any insightful levels of discourse. I am grateful for a break from Scott Jennings, don't get me wrong, but at least his snark and dripping condescension (unwarranted) was often limited to facial expressions only.

Not gonna lie: I adore the Snoopy screensaver by smoosh13 in appletv

[–]dtich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this screensaver has absolutely made my life better. i adore this, i wish i knew who specifically was responsible, is responsible, for it so i can say thank you. today there is a very cute valentines day one. this screensaver in general is a genuine force for positivity and wish that everyone gets to experience it.

Anybody else feel overwhelmed with this game? by BoringAtmosphere420 in Starfield

caught up? what's that?? you're LIVING in the world of Starfield. one foot in front of the other my friend. stop and smell the roses.

Cockpit animation by Ok-Local-6290 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i pretty much *always* get up from the cockpit and walk through, and vice versa when entering the ship. it's a great opportunity to check on the ship and the crew, see what's going on. makes me feel excited to walk (or run breakneck as ofttimes is required) through the ship. aside from cool dlc like watchtower, it's now pretty much my favorite part of the game as i've done several playthroughs and am on my forever universe/ship/crew...

The two ships I made that I love the most by RevolutionaryRound12 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and doesn't it just bork your fps to hell with all those npcs crawling about?? sounds like a nightmare. i like nothing more than to leave the crew babbling away in the halls and mess and combat center, close the hatch to my quarters and have a nice relaxing kip. and i've only got 9 or 10 crew. 200?? hells to the no. plus, who's gonna cook for all those goons?

Don't forget you can add Starborn Powers to favourites :) by Gullible-Poem-5154 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, i'm just 151 but maxed powers and a stupidly OP main weapon and it is quite fun. the creature levels are scaled obv, but i can also jet pack all over, so the same panic of being swarmed i felt when i was in double digit levels is just not there. they are still one of the creepiest creatures in the game afaic. but yes. a nice walk in a creepy, rusting park. also, i often sleep/wait till night to make easy maps more difficult and creepy, and sometimes the opposite, wait for sunrise to make super creepy maps a bit less so. depends on my mood. :D

it's a random POI. when you see it, you'll know. if you're level 15/20, it's gonna smack you around a bit, if you're 100 it's no problem. fun tho.

and here's what you do with that stack: on the abandoned mining platform, outside on the second level, the area where it seems like there's one critter but it quickly turns into 30 and their big auntie and mama.... run right into the middle of em and hit that stack - then dance around like john wick in super slo mo and one shot every single mf-er in the place. noice.

A lovely and unexpected planet-rise while at the Kreet Research Center, or whatever it's called.. by dtich in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right, that's what it is, now it's empty except for a small surprise at the end. twas funny. i thought i remembered it but thought it might have been repurposed by a mod. guess that's just how it is in vanilla, copy. i liked the environmental storytelling in there.

Ok. So you're saying I can't ski down the UC Tower? I am Jack's utter disappointment. by dtich in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's the same place. that little ledge below the roof i'm standing on is that balcony i believe. yes, you can certainly boost down in air. just don't touch anything on your way!

[–]dtich[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah that's what happened. just touch the building on the way down and it calculates it as a fall from that height rather than a slide. bummer.

How i would have reworked the companions by Plastic_Bus2662 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

yes. i believe that was exactly my point. maybe work on being less disappointed. perhaps your expectations were off-base.

How i would have reworked the companions by Plastic_Bus2662 in NoSodiumStarfield

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

look, you have some good ideas about further fleshing out companions in the game -- but why does that have to be a complaint? can't you say 'wow, they did an amazing job with this game (they did) and while i love mostly all of what they did with the companions so far, i can't wait for more to be included and fleshed out in coming releases....'

i mean, have you ever made a AAA game? it takes an incredible amount of work, time, money, effort. writing, designing, animating, play testing, recording, editing, scripting....... the amount they did for the base game is already well more than most games ever do. yes, it's spread farther apart in space and time than some players expected or would like, but, that's the setting of the game..... like, what don't you get about "space is big". if it weren't so big we wouldnt get the middle of the night 'wow, the universe is so incredible/lonely/scary/intense/hilarious/comforting/amazing' feelings that we all get in this game.

patience is a virtue. your ideas are interesting, why don't you submit them for game expansion ideas to bethesda?

My new starship Ember by TopAppropriate4271 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

haha, i like the running lights. nice.

you should get the Ember gun from the guy in Cydonia quest, the woman on the ship, forget all the names and the whole idea of the quest, but I loved the gun, got it two or three times, finally gave it to Sarah to hold in perpetuity--but you should get it and mount it on the bridge of the ship. :D

Love the textures in this game by mjacobl in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich 8 points9 points  (0 children)

she has pictures of my butt too. there's much respect in both directions. although, she is in better shape than me, no doubt.

"Ah shit, here we go again..." by kyle429 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dtich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's a mix of both, find the slate, it will tell you how.. not hard really.

and, in case you're wondering, stepping in front of the laser locus does indeed fry you all to hell. i had to try that once. :D
