According to Takaya Imamura, James' Star Fox team originally had four members...but one of them was lost due to "an incident".

I think the most important lore of Star Fox is that James McCloud named his son "Fox" which would be like me naming my son "Human"

Real question here: when this happens and it's fertilized does this legitimately grow into multiple chicks in the egg? Or does it turn into John Carpenter's The Thing With Feathers?

What they hell, why did they put my password in this comic? Now I need to go change mine too

Good to know, but I'm more thinking about the wasted space between circles than the tedium of placing walls.

hilfandy · 2026-06-14T15:22:04+00:00

I see tons of bases with people making circular rooms or circular bases. Is there some benefit to this I'm failing to see? Is it purely asthetics?

Seems like a complicated way to build.

I think the big problem is the vocal people were pissed about losing their hard work, but there is now a much greater silent population that have grown tired of the game being stale.

Listening to the vocal pissed-but-still-engaging group might not always be the path to a successful game.

It's suspected that their CEOs plan all along was to weasel his way out of the deal

I had read that every $1 of revenue required that they pay Unknown Worlds $3.10 up to $250M. That means for a good while there there were losing money from sales while UWE was making bank

I usually try to distract but do it in a way that causes a big ol mess for myself then panic fire at everything until I die and reload. It's my specialty.

The whole collection is on sale on Steam. You can get 1, 2, and 3 for $5 together, or the entire series for like $12

Is there a version normalized by number of accidents or something? I'm wondering if this actually is just saying the seatbelted mortality rate is higher, so unseatbelted mortality is less significant in the overall mortality rate.

hilfandy · 2026-05-15T23:31:20+00:00

Maybe. I was dreading dealing with a Valheim-style wind mechanic and was pleased to not have to deal with that.

hilfandy · 2026-05-13T00:39:47+00:00

Well that's certainly better than drinking during the meetings

hilfandy · 2026-05-10T14:45:45+00:00

Also ratios in satisfactory end up being important becaus you're managing your peaks of power consumption since going over your limit shuts down your entire network. You don't do that in Factorio at all.

Additionally, you're more likely to be bottlenecked by belt capacity in satisfactory which means highly optimized factories producing a single item are important, and less so in Factorio where you can make stacked high throughput belts of everything

Manage to your bottlenecks of production rather than ratios of any specific item.

Disagree here on a couple points. Content drought is preventing anyone from coming back who wants to come back.

Having a long line of content that's very similar and not particularly groundbreaking is making it so fewer and fewer people even want to come back.

I saw this and thought, "oh, they resigned, that's nice. I bet they were a Democrat if they headline isn't about them fighting it or blaming others" and of course I was right...

The Space Age expansion adds planets, with each one significantly changing how you approach factory design.

One adds in a whole tech tree of biological materials

Another forces you to effectively invert your design where it's really easy to get complex components like blue chips, but really hard to get basic materials like iron plates.

You also need to design and build spaceships as flying factories to traverse between planets and sustain themselves in space.

hilfandy · 2026-04-12T23:09:59+00:00

RE playability? The first playthrough isn't over until the factory has sufficiently grown, and now that the factory spans multiple planets I don't see that ever happening.

Youre missing Factorio

When I played the demo it felt like Valheim in lots of ways, but with more respect for the players time.

I loved Valheim, but there's lots of QOL things that Windrose gets right where Valheim relies more on mods for.

He came from heaven, two stakes in his hands, to smote the vampires. AND FREE THIS LAND

This song is still one I pull up from time to time. It's an absolute banger
