Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

I really super hate the Diamond City Radio DJ and I hope that him being so terrible is because there's a quest to replace him or something

he and his neurotic worrying kind of grows on you after a while

but yeah, if you go to diamond city, if you visit him and the dugout inn, you set off a chain of events that cause him to grow a pair

may require you to come back after doing the initial visit, you know it's starting when a guard tells you to talk to the dudes in the inn

after that he sounds like a goon trying to be all smooth and cool

y'know blizz had a really good opportunity to make a great rts with the starcraft release strategy, they could've done big overhauls with both hots and lotv and really kept the stuff that worked from wol and tried new and different things in the expansions to make the game better

instead, they introduced a few new units in each expansion and tweaked numbers on old units and called it a day

also i figured out how to make walls and corners work in shacks. you have to lay down floors first and then the walls snap to the floors. This means you don't need the corner pieces which i guess are actually intended to be reverse corners w/ the outside part being the 90 degree side.

I maintain that their emphasis and refusal to budge on APM sinks like inject and crono did them in.

agreed

raising the skill floor of an already complicated game like starcraft makes it basically impossible for someone to play casually for fun. games like dota and lol are successful because even not knowing anything about the game you can pick the man who looks coolest and go click on things for a bit

yeah a birdseye view that also gives you a list of settlers and their current assignments so they can be easily changed would be good

a birdseye view would be nice but not really necessary, but i cant believe they didnt include a way to check what settlers are assigned to what. even if it's like you have to build a terminal or something just anything to make settler management less awful

if you are in building mode you can mouse over a settler and their assignment will be highlighted but that only works for settlers you can find that are in los of their assignment. its dumb as hell.
