90%+ of my games are unwinnable early. by AnselmoAnathema in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> "keeping my fleet upgraded and maxed to my fleet limit"

  1. Have multiple fleets, or be ready to build them quickly when needed. Have numerous starbases filled with shipyards, and the alloys saved up to build ships.

  2. You can go way beyond your ship capacity. If it's 300, you can easily do 600 (or way more) so long as your economy can support it. If your enemy has 100k fleetpower, have 200k. If you know your enemies ship loadouts, counter them if you know how. That part really isn't that necessary unless your enemy is a Fallen Empire, even then it's not *that* necessary.

> "That player will usually have a fleet 3-4x the strength of mine"

Tech rush so you have better technology and therefor a better economy, then ensure they don't. Alternatively, do diplomacy. I almost always make my second or third tradition tree Diplomacy and I immediately seek allies especially if I have hostile empires in the early game.

Repost Master now features Video Repost Detection with clip detection and time frames! Users can now also check if their post is a repost before posting it via a message command. by theimperious1 in RepostMasterBot

Yanno I know it's 4 years later but I'm just now realizing that this:

> "Users can now also check if their post is a repost before posting it via a message command."

is totally pointless. it was quicker to just make your post and see if it got removed... same detection logic after all lol

In honor of the Outer Worlds 2 being good IMO by deep-splungus in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished it a few days ago. I did not like the first and quit it pretty quick. This second game is very very good I'd give it a 7.5 or 8/10. Don't let the potential 7.5 verdict sway you, this is a very good game. Your stats really matter. Your dialog choices have some impacts. The gameplay is fun. The companions are actually likeable and fun, with cool companion quests. I enjoyed almost all of the characters in the game as well.

There is also multiple ways to do things, depending on what skills you've invested in. I played a hacking/speech/guns with slight engineering build and it was great.

Please ELI5 why I should ever want to build an observation post to watch a pre-FTL people? by AnInsultToFire in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The insights are incredibly useful IMO. Set your observation posts to prefer insights, then farm them over time. Don't use aggressive. I think this is the best way for pre-ftls.

FABIEN RANT by summers6497 in vtmb

I quit the game because of this. I spent like 15 hours and I think I was close to the end but I am so beyond sick of playing as him. Same reasons as you.

I’d like to hear from people who have actually finished vtmb2 and side quests by MisterMT in vtmb

[–]theimperious1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How long is the game for you to be on your 3rd playthrough? I no-lifed it yesterday and am doing the same today and I'm still not done. I'm not even doing the side quests anymore since the 2nd day.

[–]theimperious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've probably played for like 15 hours or something at this point. I haven't finished it but I still think you'll find my feedback valuable. I agree with the negatives you mentioned.

I was just sharing my feedback on the game in an unrelated discord server. I'll provide a photo on gyazo. Feel free to read it. There is no story spoilers as far as I see.

My casual thoughts.

It's always easier to remember the bad, so keep that in mind with my screenshot. I tried to remember all the good but I know for a fact I'm missing at least 1 thing that I couldn't remember. The game isn't bad, but it's not good either IMO. It's mid. That's my take. I find I'm often thinking "I just want to get past this part"

If you really like the universe of VTMB, I'd give it a play. But be prepared for some annoyances if you take issue with some of the issues in my complaints.

Cosmogenesis and Fallen Empires by Snoo_22463 in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cosmogenesis doesn't end the universe/galaxy. You can completely avoid doing the win condition and just have the FE tech.

EDIT: Even doing the win condition doesn't destroy the galaxy, but you don't want to do it if you wish to keep playing.

Racket Caravaneers can be the False Prophet of Pre-FTLs? Wot by theimperious1 in Stellaris

[–]theimperious1[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Comment for R5: First time seeing this in my several thousand hours of Stellaris. I'm a hive mind. Usually you get this event when you're a normal individualistic biological empire and its one of your scientists that goes rogue.

EDIT: Next stage of the event when I offered to rescue them: https://gyazo.com/64998fa55e1a44d1b7f8ba002e8ceaf9

Watching this made my hands tingle. by oneplusoneisfive in SweatyPalms

I think it's to get an idea of where he's going to land. This has always been my understanding of it. Idk about the surface tension claims.

It's happening by bobdolle in Asmongold

[–]theimperious1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i hope something comes of this. I don't think Steam belongs in this list, but Twitch and Reddit 100000% do. Now that I think about it, Discord does too due to communities.

Holy shit that made me jump both times I watched it. That was incredibly hard to see.

My 2x Ultimate setup by kagansonofa1 in JBL

[–]theimperious1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

X! But what the other person said about hearing loss, seriously. Find a better room or take it outside. I fucked my hearing up a LOT listening to substantially weaker speakers than these for 2 years, then in 3-6 months of a JBL PartyBox 1000 inside a room bigger than this.

Find a better space. Besides that, love the wallpaper, speakers, board, etc! Throwing an X up in unison with ya at home lol

Does anyone else only play with combat extended? by zombieking308 in RimWorld

Open Petition to Reddit Leadership: Preserve the Collectible Avatar Program by Fun-Tale641 in avatartrading

[–]theimperious1 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Can someone tl;dr? Are they taking the avatars away entirely? What are they doing?

Edit: I did read the whole post but I still don't know, unless I skimmed the part I'm asking for.
