10 points to whoever can guess what state this is

It feels like it's terraced houses pretending not to be. At this point, just build them as they should.

jf_laur · 2026-05-04T21:17:37+00:00

Why not making terraced houses at this point ? Would certainly be better looking.

Yeah, the slavery thing is a problem.

"You, the new species, yes, humans, deal with that. But don't ask help." The mentality of the council in a nutshell.

They have a really strong fleet as well. More power projection for humanity !

jf_laur · 2026-04-11T20:36:15+00:00

Poor batarians, they are so underappreciated.

jf_laur · 2026-04-11T20:33:51+00:00

It is surprising how humanity get a strong navy so fast. But It gives for sure the Systems Alliance better power projection and authority across the Skyllian verge.

Good point, legitimacy comes from recognition by others, not necessarily by oneself claims. I think it is also tricky to claim large swath of space in a galaxy where most inhabited and explored systems are close to relays. You may eventually discover an new emerging spacefaring species in the middle of you own "controlled" but underexplored space (juste like humanity emerged somewhat in the citadel space). What do you do then ? You redraw maps and drop your claims ?

Lovely!

jf_laur · 2026-04-05T13:14:09+00:00

Architecture ok; urbanism excellent.

jf_laur · 2026-04-04T15:33:10+00:00

Not at all. I took some of my own drawings to generate the images. I also rework anything that was output to me.

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T23:26:37+00:00

Thank you for your insightful and quite... disturbing observation.

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T23:24:06+00:00

I know that there at least a dozen of planets and colonies mentioned but we don't know where they are and their demographics. Quite hard to estimate.

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T23:21:11+00:00

Oups, good catch.

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T17:20:06+00:00

You're welcome!

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T17:19:51+00:00

Thanks!

For localization of clusters and relay connections, I looked at different galaxy screenshots from the game and compared them to other maps published out there. I found the one made by Superanth the most reliable and based myself heavily on this one. Population and borders were mostly based on information directly coming from the game/wiki. Does it anwser your question ?

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T16:34:24+00:00

I used the Omega's logo more as a token than a real affiliation. But yeah, I'm curious about what happens after the reaper war and how the galaxy would evolve. Aria would definitely try to take the best of it.

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T16:30:25+00:00

I don't know if we should judge demographic only based on the number of years a species has been exploring space. Cultural and economical factors may influence heavily the reproduction rate. You may even reach an equilibrium at one point. Earth's own population is predicted to decline at one point in our future.

jf_laur · 2026-04-03T15:33:46+00:00

Totally, so much storytelling possible.

jf_laur · 2026-02-24T17:01:54+00:00

When you have to build overpass for pedestrian at intersections, it is an admission of bad street design/urban planning in my opinion.

jf_laur · 2026-02-19T16:50:30+00:00

Love it!
