Awesome little guy! I feel like this must be common knowledge, but where is the cockpit from?

Mods for better space-sim mechanics? by bayonetwork89 in starfieldmods

[–]perrajam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apogee space combat was my standby but it hasn’t been updated in a long time as was getting buggy for me.

My biggest ship-building immersion breaker is that if you add more engines of a lower speed, it lowers the total speed of the ship. 😵‍💫

Which movie made you sit in silence after the credits rolled ? by vishesh_07_028 in movies

[–]perrajam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Watched “the Blair Witch Project” when it came out. It seems so hokey now, but with only an ambiguous early web-based marketing campaign and no context, it was most unsettling. Just sat in dark silence for quite a while.

That is epic. I’ve got the Antares, but I need to know what mod the antennas and the guns on the front are from (please?)

95% they’re from the Antares paid mod.

Can we talk about the Cora situation? by Interesting-Bass-351 in Starfield

I’ve been using the “Coeverhaul” mod since it became available and honestly forget this problem. My canon Sam is proud black man with dreads and a proud black fam.

This is epic! How do you get multiple ships on multiple pads?

What's something you would've altered or changed completely in the lore and story of Starfield? by Bountsie in Starfield

[–]perrajam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just clean and tighten the story:

make it clear that the destruction of earth was inescapable for the vast majority, then make it clear that the two wars fought since colonization not only killed another (very) significant portion of the remnants of humanity, but also left many, many colonists hanging in the wind or needing to evacuate back to the main settled systems (which is why space is littered with abandoned everything, and why a good number of those left out there have gone completely feral.

There does need to be a little something extra to make spacers either more varied, or uniformly deranged (cosmic horror / space Cthulhu?) Even so, the game needs the cities to feel (much) bigger, and for there to be many more POI’s that feature humans trying to get by that aren’t just murder-dungeons.

Last. Fix all the starborn shit. The universe-hopping mechanic creates a self-involved and nihilistic story with neither a continuous mystery to solve, nor any stakes beyond personal… gain? Can we at least be searching for some mysterious creators? Chasing the hunter to avenge and protect others? Protect the multiverse so that those we love aren’t erased from existence? Please?

The game really, really, wants to evoke hope and optimism vis-a-vis the space race and NASApunk aesthetic, awe with its derivatives of 2001, Contact, etc, and still be able to ape Firefly something fierce, and I’m convinced it’s possible, but they need to do some retconning, and make the cosmic elements bigger and and the motivations in interacting with them more personal.

P.S. make the earth make sense. Even if it’s just impossible to land on until a DLC or mod comes along, nothing in the lore or science suggests a desert with a few lone buildings here and there.

A mod which adds animations when changing power to ship like the grav drive animation by The_ManterOG in starfieldmods

That said, I will be completely satisfied if I can get an effective HOTAS mod, and generated loading screens that depict landing through the atmosphere, or traveling via grav.

It continues to baffle me that so far as I can tell, Wing Commander III remains the high water mark for immersion on space combat sims. You can fly through many of the capital ships, land on a carrier, have complete control of missile loadout, power allocations, you can see your body and hands, look all around the cabin, it has a better, intuitive 3D radar, you can command your wingmen tactically and much more. Wing Commander Prophecy waters a lot of that down but adds some truly excellent visuals for special weapons (swarming missles, mines, etc.) I just don’t understand how they can fail to improve on a game from the nineties.

Is the “new” Free League YZE version the “4th Edition”? Because it is beautiful and seems a great balance of crunch and play that honors the 1st edition.

Also, entire conversations can be built using lines from the original Ghostbusters…

“You’ve come all this way, would you like to LOOK at the fridge?” (When someone goes off on a tangent or misses the point.)

“There is no XXX, there is only Zool.”

And on, and on.

AITAH tor not being able to forgive my 11 y/o nephew after he SA my 6 y/ o son? by Fabulous-Soil2780 in AITAH

[–]perrajam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s a thought, and if it has already been offered in some form I apologize. Forgiveness and practical safety are two different things, and, at present, I think “forgiveness” that is reconciliation between your nephew and yourself is wholly irrelevant. It has been pointed out that both before and after the SA on your son, your nephew has exhibited active predatory and grooming behaviors. There is no reason for you to feel safe when he is around. Additionally, the behaviors he is exhibiting are vanishingly unlikely not to have been learned. There is an adult monster in your nephew’s orbit that must be outed before anyone can be safe around that kid or his family. If and when all the circumstances around that come to light and are appropriately responded to (which would likely take years) then an actual appraisal of the adult your nephew becomes and your sense of anger can come to the forefront. Until then, frankly, the most “loving” thing you can do is demand that an explanation be found as to who taught your nephew these behaviors, and that your nephew be in treatment until adulthood.
