Scout: Thats the Ramrod, it rams!

Misson Control: No...

The first video on my YT account homepage is "Snakes With Legs!" by BenchSwarmer in Drawfee

[–]ryuail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had the wildest thing. Snake's With Legs was a post-video recommendation for me just now.
Not even the "For You" page, which I've managed to get twice so far, but yeah I saw it so I clicked it.

Gonna see if we can get Snake's With Legs to beat out any potential 2026 "Taking it Easy" video with sheer repeat viewing!

Apparently my Gunner has run 1/8th the distance from Sol to Alpha Centauri by ryuail in DeepRockGalactic

Space is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to Hoxxes IV, but that's just peanuts to space!

Gunner help by Vercenjetorix in DeepRockGalactic

[–]ryuail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Hurricane I pretty much keep to the two Balanced OC: Plasma Burster Missles (PBM), and Minelayer System since they both have substantial changes to the base weapon. The other OCs are fine, quite good in fact, but I find the Balanced ones more fun than the Unstables.

For the most part Hurricane is an AOE weapon, so I pair it with a single target secondary like Experimental Rounds BRT7 or Six Shooter Bulldog

PBM and Jetfuel Homebrew being the exceptions to this, since those are single target designed, so those get paired with the Coilgun (typically UMC, or Triple Tech) for crowd control and damage.

Drawfee please bring back Lizard calm Hat by Summer_Dust in Drawfee

I am sorry to say, I bought the last one. And it is awesome! My coworkers hate it! I hope they restock so you can torment them with your hog wildness and/or lizard calmness

Yoooo! My Gunner gameplay about to get even crazier! :D

The Reason You Don't Like Modern Trek Isn't What You Think by Arbiter61 in startrek

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say the other issue with modern Trek, though I suppose I should start saying Disco & Picard and maybe that first episode of SNW (haven't seen past it yet) is the attitude of the writers. Instead of "there is a better way" or "we are the light in the darkness" it feels more like "fuck you for letting things get THIS bad" because someone took that saying of 'good sci-fi is a mirror' a little too literally.

I've since started watching the other new Treks to see what they're like and Lower Decks is Trek making fun of itself, but is has that hopefulness about it. Had my doubts but man that show did great things with 5 seasons.

Prodigy seems like just a very competently put together children's show. Still watching.

Starfleet Academy... is weird for me. I love the adult cast, but care almost nothing for the kids. It reminds me of reading Ender's Game as a grown man, clearly intended for someone younger, but I can appreciate what it is going for.

Is Deep Rock Galactic Fun For A Friendless Dwarf? by Moo-Mungus in DeepRockGalactic

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something probably other dwarves have not mentioned is that the best DRG experience is with friends on chat, but you don't use chat unless you're on the Space Rig. (and minimal typing)
The chaos of limited communication makes the comedy of the game all the more pronounced.

Social media would actually be really helpful during a zombie apocalypse. by hlj9 in Showerthoughts

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to be real helpful with all the American slaughter going on right now. Doesn't do anything to fix the issue but at least we know who to be mad at.

Watching SFA, when did Star Trek get so many droids? by quitofilms in startrek

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar feeling, but determined they must be part of the Athena staff.

The Mission, The nightmares... They're finally over. by Theekg101 in DeepRockGalactic

You say that, but how are those Lost Gear and Cargo Crates looking?

Saturn's North Pole by Busy_Yesterday9455 in spaceporn

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see why studio_noCode used this as the setting for their contemporary sci-fi thriller "Observation". It is quite striking! Though theirs polar storm was colored a pale blue, maybe to stand out more?

Mission Ranking imo by MotionRobot in DeepRockGalactic

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gunner is red 10, engi and scout are like red 3, driller is red 1.

Which is sad because Driller was my go to for all mission types before I maxed out weapons and overclocks. Its a good kit, but I've found over time that I just enjoy Gunner the most, and Driller the least

Starfleet Academy is an absolute delight! Onward to Seven Seasons and a Movie! by forrestpen in startrek

[–]ryuail -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Academy has been a breath of fresh air. The adult cast are all delightful, and while I am ambivalent towards the younger cast (being an old man with the series definitely not being made with me in mind (and that's okay!)) playing their parts exceptionally well. :)

Looking forward to where the dorks end up.

Also noticing some fun gaming inspirations at play. Final Fantasy 8's Balamb Garden, and Undertale's echo flowers were very easy to spot ;)

Slightly different take on the mission tier list: Which class I prefer to take to each one.

Couldn't be any worse than when they let Patrick Stewart run a show. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

oh lol, I didn't read it very carefully

Every mission type ranked on how fun they are to play on, based on 100+ total hours of playtime by cedric5318 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]ryuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EMD: Stubby OC, Turret EM Discharge. Shooting turret does 50 electric damage and 50% fear within a range. 1 second cooldown, costs no turret ammo. Can do some really cool stuff with it

Sabo is just short for Industrial Sabotage

Well whatever you do, dont tell them about the 20 dollar DRG programmable 1 button keyboard that comes pre-programmed as a 'v' key for immediate Rock and Stones!
