I don't understand why people in Constellation get pissed off when you suggest that Cora stay at the lodge, like the orphan Sarah is responsible for.

I'm guessing it's intentional that people pronounce his name like it's a business, SamCo? I don't know how universal it is but I noticed several characters don't really pronounce his name as two words like his real name is Sam Popeil or some poo poo

Like I regularly get into space battles with flotillas of pirates or interdimensional travellers or the loving Navy. Sam bro just leave your little girl with her grandpa who she loves and vice versa when we go on our next space advenyure

I don't know who I was supposed to sympathize with, because whatever the Dev's intentions, it didn't reflect well on Sam. We've seen that most Rangers just have sleepy desk duty in places like the Clinic and very rarely actually Maintiens le Droit. I don't think having custody would have imperilled the FC.

Tankbuster posted:the problem isn't with obsidian games. They have better writing and narratives than bethesda games by far. The problem is the people I went to college with in the states went from being nice berniebros to voting for hillary (in oklahoma lmao) to sharing joe biden is the next FDR articles while sharing breadtube videos. They all seem to think that Fallout New Vegas is one of the most poignant and hard hitting tales of how american capitalism is bad. Like come on fellas you literally went to school with kids from vietnam whose parents were dodging actual bombs. huh they must have played new vegas wrong. to me it was about murdering ncr commies while my buddies Vulpes and Arcade cheered me on

Epic High Five posted:The quality of rice I'm putting out in Sakuna is something I'm going to need to hide from from any communes I apply to post-climate collapse. This game really a rice growing simulator and beat'em up that each boost the other, wild. Hopefully just chugging along making medicore rice means eventually my crop will be powerful enough on its own that any skill on my part will not be required. Oh it is so good. Rice is life and the videogame mechanically married actual real deal rice farming with metroidvania player power in such a wonderful way.

UC didn't lose those war anymore than Freestar won them. Both sides fought each other into a stalemate and nobody is happy with the results. The stupid status quo treaty that ended the 1st war is what caused the 2nd war. The dumbass status quo treaty that ended the 2nd war will cause the 3rd war.

The cowboys deffo won the first war, the disputed system joined the Collective. Second war was a stalemate as far as I can tell

quote:In 2194, the United Colonies placed a star station named the Clinic in the orbit of the planet Deepala in Narion. The unaffiliated inhabitants of Narion objected to this and demanded the Clinic be removed out of fear that the UC was planning to annex the system, but the UC refused. In protest, Narion's people voted to join the Freestar Collective, which sent a military force to the system in 2195 to protect the locals. Hmmm, seems like a toss up.

Oh there's a lore reason why the two governments (really awkward when they call them factions in game imo) won't expand inti the 92 unclaimed systems around them. That's neat

Freestar did try to expand, which is what caused the most recent war.quote:The Freestar Collective began colonizing the planet Vesta in the Lunara system in 2307. This was opposed by the United Colonies, who in 2308 lodged a formal objection to the Vesta colony on the grounds that the Collective's expansion into a fourth star system was a violation of the Treaty of Narion. When diplomatic talks between the UC and Freestar broke down, the UC placed the Vesta colony under siege, resulting in the deaths of all of the colony's Freestar defenders.

the uc is so cartoonishly evil but the "good" path is to say what happned in the past didnt matter, we have the opportunity to shape the future. which you might as well have said "we can fix the nazis by just being a good nazi"

the original treaty between the FC and UC restricting them to 3 worlds each is so silly and shortsighted I have to assume it was put in place to ensure continued hostilities rather than quell them

I sent the baby out to go foraging and came back to everybody saying he's gone missing and samurai guy is hunting for them. I'd love to help look but it's Spring 1 u know how it goes, I'm sure they're fine and I'll find them eventually. The baby was fine foraging before! Helicopter parenting!!

That being fake would be a bit, video games shipping with malware isn't new or unusual, or rootkits, or some other bit of malicious software. Edit: I'm definitely thinking of rootkits, not malware. Either way, publishers and developers don't give a gently caress about what goes on your computer lol, just pay up loser. Lostconfused has issued a correction as of 20:51 on Sep 18, 2023 |

DaysBefore posted:Every time I learn something new about Freestar it becomes funnier and funnier that the UC lost two wars to them The Freestar collective should have collapsed like, two minutes into its creation. Their main system is basically one shoddy town and a few outlying farms, and while the second big system is home to a bunch of powerhouse corporations and industrial capacity they're all so loosely governed and corrupt they might as well roll over or stab the government in the back the moment it suits them or the UC rolls up and starts bombarding them from orbit. And while I can see citizen militias in their own starships being able to do some damage in space, how would that even be coordinated when everyone is constantly backbiting and trying to do their own thing?
