    Marvel Universe stuff

    There's basically zero corona measures in Australia/Sydney. He definitely isn't violating them in his own house. And yeah border restrictions (like most rules/laws) don't apply to people with enough money.

    What did you just read?

    I found the second a lot harder to get in to because Gideon is a much more entertaining narrator than Harrow. Also I found Harrow confusing as fuck for the first 4 chapters or so, until I realised what the different perspectives were all about. Having said that even the second book was fantastic...

    Stellaris

    I do full kinetic weapons for corvettes and destroyers, maximum shields my power can support. Cruisers I might do full kinetic or hangers depending on my tech and mood. Battleships mostly tachyon lance+neutron launchers, with some hanger battleships mixed in, and a bunch of corvettes in the...

    Ah yeah I meant spiral type galaxy. edited my post.

    Stellaris

    Play 4 arm spiral galaxy type, that makes there be a lot more chokepoints. I think it might be worthwhile playing total war for a bunch of games, with high AI density on small-medium sized maps, on as high difficulty as you can stand. You will die and restart a bunch of times (at least that was...

    Victoria 3 - Paradox

    Yeah I get it, I just think it's a positive attribute and you don't. I mean my favourite game of the last few years is Oxygen Not Included, and the expansion Klei released for that late last year changed the base game even more than any paradox DLC, and I think it's wonderful. There are paradox...

    Right, thats great, but still far fewer than paradox has released in the same period.

    Victoria 3 - Paradox

    I don't think other companies do that. What company has released a new 4X game every 5 years? Stellaris is 5 years old and has been revamped so many times, it may as well have been new games. Since Stellaris they also released CK3 and Planetfall. In my opinion Paradox are one of the good ones.

    Victoria 3 - Paradox

    Funny, I think it's a great thing that paradox keeps refining games, releasing new content and changing things to keep them fresh and interesting. I just finished playing with the latest Stellaris and Surviving Mars DLCs, need to get on to AOW:Planetfall:Star Kings and the last few Cities...

    Wheel of Time

    "Tuon, tough? True, she was the Daughter of the Nine Moons and all of that, and she had been able to get under his skin with a look back in the Tarasin Palace, when he thought she was just another Seachan noblewoman with her nose in the air, but that was just because she kept turning up where...

    Stellaris

    Play become the crisis if you want to get insane fleets, being able to build ships faster, with minerals instead of alloy, and have them take almost no unkeep is nuts. You kind of don't even need to worry about fleet cap at that point but you can always just mass anchorages too. When you have...

    Warframe

    Almost all of the trials are pretty hard to fail if you try at all though, and even if you do it doesn't really matter. It doesn't hold you back at all unless you are specifically waiting to use an item that needs a specific MR right now!

    Love, Death & Robots

    Even though probably weaker than S1 as a whole it was still good. Santa episode, Pop Squad, Snow in the Desert all top tier. In fact the only really weak one I thought was Ice.

    Stellaris

    I didn't use become the crisis this time, I wanted to make it more of a challenge. That perk is far too strong and makes the game too easy when you're already playing a total war civ. And yeah that invasion of the awakened empire was very short and violent. My biggest challenge so far this game...

    Stellaris

    This is the most fleet power I've ever had. Time to invade the last awakened empire.

    Stellaris

    Just to put this to bed, I just tested and Gavin is right, it averages the fleet. Example, 1 battleship+1 corvette fleet is faster than a cruiser.
  17. sakkath

    Stellaris

    That could be the case too, and if so it must weight ships 1:1 which is why my fleets of 40 corvettes, 15 battleships and 1-2 titans move so fast, easily outspeeding enemy fleets that only have smaller ships in them.

    Stellaris

    From what I've noticed Grey Tempest mostly use strike craft. I love the L cluster, as Furry mentioned they tend to really fuck with the AIs while I'm invading the L Cluster. My current game I don't have any L-gates anywhere near me, some AI opened it and he seemed to hold them off fine but they...

    Stellaris

    My ravenous hive got this far through eating the galaxy when the Raltek Peacekeepers FE decided that I was a galactic menace (probably due to my liberal eating and neutron sweep usage), awoke and declared war So I decided to show them what being neutron sweeped felt like. I don't think they...

    Stellaris

    I'm only playing on admiral, never seen 7k fleets that early but that does sound like the typical way I lose the early game. Last week I had 3 restarts in one afternoon after overpowered early aggression against my fanatical purifiers.

    Stellaris

    The rubricator? It should only kill the relic world colony you dug it from, then sit there in that system waiting for you to come kill it. I had that happen to me once, now I know not to do that arch dig until I'm ready to kill the dragon. It seems like a common event, I get it every second game...

    Disco Elysium

    I just tried to smash a trucks window with a crowbar, failed. Turned, complained to my tiny japanese partner that it must be shatterproof. He looked at me with intense disappointment, grabbed the crowbar and smashed the window in with one swing. Not emasculating at all.

    Disco Elysium

    Picked this up.. Interesting experience so far.. Haven't died yet although I have taken damage a few times from doing things I obviously shouldn't have. Apparently I'm a 'sorrycop' because I keep apologising to various people for the shenanigans I appear to have been up to the last 2 days which...

    Stellaris

    So I just enacted this: I had enough diplomatic weight to outvote every other member put together. Then the unbidden arrived in the middle of my empire. I managed to push them back to only 4 of my systems, and was slowly trying to grind towards the portal but they had broken out and taken over...

    Stellaris

    I'm not a stellaris expert (only on my 6th or so game) but I've had good success trying to rush strike craft cruisers, they seem to dominate everything smaller than a battleship to the point where it seems useless to build anything smaller for any function other than pirate patrol or fast moving...

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I've been using spotify for years so the switch didn't bother me at all. He's had some great guests since the move. For example the episode with moxie marlinspike is one of my favorites, and the recent elon musk one was excellent. The journalist who made trafficked was also great. On the...

    How hard is it? Would my rocket league/fortnite loving 7 year old be able to handle the mechanics? As an example, he struggles with overcooked as it's too fast paced.

    Stellaris

    My last 3 games have all ended the same way, I dominate the AIs, federation, vassel or annex them all, stop the mid game crises, then pick a fight with the awakened empire, which tends to end inconclusively, then the game ends and I win on points. Awakened empires are so hard to contain because...

    Wrath of Man (2021)

    Promising young woman is a completely different genre. It has no action at all, it is a dark drama.

    I hung out with Dani Filth and Nicholas Barker. Nicholas was a gigantic bitch who spent the whole time complaining about ex cradle members who had left the band. So yeah I can't top Lemmy.
