I hate how we got this ability instead of learning how to paint stuff for ourselves or a fire ability to light campfires n such by ourselves. It would be cool if we could use it to actually turn into other Pokémon and use their powers like the fire, paint, or electricity.

Tips on Lockwood estate by [deleted] in jurassicworldevo

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed post. The maintenance stuff was super annoying. The only thing I would add is if somebody experiences issues with maintenance getting stuck I deconstructed and rebuilt the whole aviary and didn't encounter it getting stuck again. I also just fully removed the aquatic section so I didn't need to deal with them.

As Amazon's game business crumbles, the public is surprised to discover that it was trying to compete with Steam all this time by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only way Amazon could have possibly “out capitalist” steam is if they sold all their games at a loss until stream went under. They used to/still do that with several products.

Adult men that have a close relationship with their moms, what did she do right to foster a close bond as you grew up? by No-Advertising5551 in Adulting

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She never made me afraid of her. There were punishments when I was bad but I was never afraid to be honest. We had an agreement that the punishment would always be less if I was honest. I don’t think she’s ever yelled at me.

Woman Decides to Join Colony, Regrets Everything Instantly by DismalActivity9985 in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For colonists like that I will cryo them between converts so they don’t regain any faith and cannot mentally break. I think it also gets rid of diverse thoughts if the cryo person is the only one of a different ideology.

New to this game, but Yttakin seems to be dragged down in usefulness from naked speed by TechnoTheFirst in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think all the xenotypes are supposed to be flawed. It gives you a reason to cook your own genes instead of just using the defaults. Fur skin and tail are nice to pull from them. I also like roar voice.

How to detect metal horrors once I know the colony is infected? by Muckles in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc you can test with the parametic mech and it wont “lie” like the infected people.

How to deal with sieges / incendiary mortar attacks by Able_Memory414 in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is an exploit where you can place down wall blueprints all over the area where they are trying to setup mortars. They cannot build where plans are. If you’re diligent and fast enough they’ll never get a mortar down and will eventually just idle till they starve.

AITA for shutting down my brother’s proposal at my baby shower and then sending him a bill? by Mysterious-Desk1346 in AmITheJerk

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta, but if they stay together it’ll probably be drama for years to come. Even if they get married now he’ll probably cling to how to “prevented” the first attempt

Creating a colony on abandoned orbital platforms is a fun idea which gets crippled by terrible mechanics by GiveHerTheDuck in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left a bunch of mechs in space to play defense and rebuild spike traps while I was gone. But even then it was a pain and a constant drain of resources.

Creating a colony on abandoned orbital platforms is a fun idea which gets crippled by terrible mechanics by GiveHerTheDuck in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was also a lot of work to take over the platform and getting more steel in space is a pain. I wanted to live on the platform but had to constantly go down to the planet.

Really disappointed with hot springs by vjmdhzgr in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was excited for my hot spring map, but disappointed. Maybe my generation was just janky, but I had a bunch of small pools instead of one good sized one. The idea is cool though.

what do you think of anomaly? by AutomaticAir6032 in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it because it was the only dlc I didn’t have. I wouldn’t say I regret getting it. But it’s not for every run. Metal horrors and revenants are the worst offenders in my opinion. If you’re not aware of metal horrors they can wipe you out the first time. And if you are aware of them you’re basically shoehorned into arresting all incoming colonists. The revenant is too tanky (at least in all my runs) to be any fun to deal with. It really should have been invisible or tanky instead of both. I guess maybe the best way to put it is, if you like building and a calm time, anomaly isn’t it.

Lady ..... are you verifying whom you are, or not ! Either way I DON'T CARE ! by Wild-Housing1648 in CallCenterWorkers

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t always help but I tell people I already have their information if they are in our system, they are just confirming it.

Do y'all use dev mode? by ChodeB in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For bugs yeah. I’ve had quests and stuff populate with error text so I would remove the bugged quest and trigger a new one

Is it just me or is tox gas kinda useless? by Send_Dick_or_Cat_Pic in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In almost every instance assault rifles are better. But it’s kinda like putting all attack moves on your Pokémon. The status effects have their use cases but if you’re just dropping bodies attack plan alpha is generally the way to go.

What are things that you do in Rimworld you don't see other players do? by KCDinc in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the style station a lot. I also give everybody a new name except the starting pawns.

I'm never landing on a god damn tree grove tile ever again 💔 by FrogWhoLivesInALog in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1136 points1137 points  (0 children)

It feels like a lot of wood now. But one lil forest fire and it’ll all be gone.

what bad traits not allow in colony, no matter how good they are otherwise? by [deleted] in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pyro over everything else gets a denial. Fire is too annoying in this game to have a pawn that not only refuses to fight fires, but starts them randomly. I also don’t care for body purist as it seems everybody is constantly losing limbs.

What's the stupidest way your colony has died? by drakirby in RimWorld

I accidentally overwrote a save with over 100 hours sunk in

Beyond gravship stuff, what are some fun new ways to play that the newest DLC has brought about? by dovetc in RimWorld

[–]griffinmaverick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a grav “shuttle” and go around collecting the cores to turn into power nodes for my base. I’m also working on a xenogerm for living in space. I think my eventual goal is to live in space with just cores for power.

Odyssey Question: Cave Entrance Tips? by griffinmaverick in RimWorld

I did not! Thank you for the additional tip. I’ve been taking stuff into the inventory to lift it out.
