Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
- Comment on Starfield's abandoned gore and dismemberment system sure would have made it less grey 6 days ago:
I had put so many hours into trying to sort my bases for NG that I didn’t even want to try and start over for NG+.
If I ever DO decide to pick it up again, assuming the save is still compatible I made a separate save file before finishing the game just to be sure.
Who knows, maybe someone will make mods to make it the game we all wanted it to be and I’ll give it another go.

Star field couple have been a lot of things if people who haven’t picked up a controller in decades hadn’t decided to try and make it as generic and casual as possible.
And maybe it’s just me, but the second I

finished the portal and restarted the game
, I lost all interest in playing the game itself.
They made the content of individual plays not matter to me, so once I did a few speed runs to the finish line I just deleted the game and haven’t played it since.
Also i could never figure out their base management system. I was hoping for something like “fallout 4 settlements in space” but all I got was “way less complicated Satisfactory”.
I stopped playing about a month after it came out, so there’s a chance they fixed some issues that I didn’t know were issues, but I still haven’t had the desire to try playing it again.
- Comment on Half-Life 3 rumours are about again after a teaser from G-Man's voice actor 2 weeks ago:
Oh look, it’s that time of the decade again.
More half life 3 rumors.
Wake me when Gabe holds a copy in his hand to announce it to the world.
- Comment on Manor Lords is getting new maps, building upgrades and reworks for the marketplace and ale distribution 1 month ago:
Ive seen it being played by almost everyone on my friends lists at one point or another
honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s hundreds of thousands, if not millions.
- Comment on Manor Lords is getting new maps, building upgrades and reworks for the marketplace and ale distribution 1 month ago:
It’s a neat game. I’ve put a couple dozen hours into a few villages over the last few months. There’s still a lot to improve on, but based on the little I’ve learned about the developer this seems like more of a passion project than a money maker.
Chug along, little dev, there’s dozens of us waiting for updates! *dozens!×
- Comment on Indiana Jones doesn't "endorse" Nazis, Bethesda assure, just in case you were confused by him repeatedly murdering them 2 months ago:
“It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness, that is life.” - Jean-Luc Picard
You make valid points. I know I’ve heard enough people who start off with “the nazis sure were bad, BUT…” and proceed to fangirl over every technological achievement made by Germany, even those that came after the allies.
There’s certainly a line where it goes from “fantasy parody of real life” to “someone wrote a fan fiction about the fourth Reich and clearly has a crush on Hitler whether they want to admit it or not”
Literally the only way they would have conquered the world is through the wonders of “Sci Fi Magic Bullshit” ™️
- Comment on Indiana Jones doesn't "endorse" Nazis, Bethesda assure, just in case you were confused by him repeatedly murdering them 2 months ago:
Indeed, they made plenty of mistakes, otherwise they would have won the war.
But it’s less about whether they could have sustained their empire afterward and more people trying to say that portraying them as such is “glorifying” them or propping them up in some sort of idealistic way.
- Comment on Indiana Jones doesn't "endorse" Nazis, Bethesda assure, just in case you were confused by him repeatedly murdering them 2 months ago:
Murder is a crime. And it’s bad. (crime doesn’t necessarily mean bad, see Robin Hood for more details)
Nazis don’t count, all you’re doing is cleaning up the trash.
- Comment on Indiana Jones doesn't "endorse" Nazis, Bethesda assure, just in case you were confused by him repeatedly murdering them 2 months ago:
I’ve heard plenty of people try to say WOLFENSTEIN glorifies nazis
I’ve had one idiot tell me ANY media that paints them as competent or successful is glorifying them. And setting anything in a world where they succeeded and progressed technologically instead of collapsing is basically saying Hitler’s world view is valid.
I still don’t know how to respond to that beyond “if you think the nazis were incompetent you don’t know history, and if you think showing a future where fascism took hold is unrealistic I have some bad news for you”
It’s fantasy, and specifically a fantasy in which you get to go on a massive killing spree against some of the worst people in history, how you can somehow pull “this game is making these guys look good” from that, I’m not sure.

Murder?
I think not. Murder is a crime. And it’s bad. (crime doesn’t necessarily mean bad, see Robin Hood for more details)
Nazis don’t count, all you’re doing is cleaning up the trash.
You can’t murder a nazi. You can certainly kill them though.
It’s an important distinction, in my opinion.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO earns $30.6 million more despite laying off over 2,000 employees in 2024 — salary package represents a 63% raise from the previous year 2 months ago:
Providing nothing that isn’t covered by other areas of the business, while profiting off the misery of others?
Guillotine.
