    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I hope they have space exploration/combat + vehicle exploration/combat. Really I just want Freelancer 2: Bethesda Edition.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yeah if they switched engines that'd be the biggest question. TES5 was so successful on Xbox that they could conceivably ditch modding and still make a commercially successful TES6, but it definitely wouldn't be elder scrolls. Some of the almost incidental modability in some C# games like...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Dyson Sphere Program. Was really impressed how stable it was, especially for being made by a handful of people in China, allegedly. Both are great engines. Personally, if I hear a game dev with an interesting concept is choosing one of them I'll feel relieved and know the game will at least...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Starfield would've been a great time to jump onto Unreal and work on that integration leading into TES6.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I'm curious how they're going to translate their theme park open world RPG style into a near-future space sim. Something like Bethesda does Freelancer is pretty exciting and is what a ton of people really want, but I doubt they're getting there with this near-future tech unless this is going to...

    The Mandalorian

    Bobafett's popularity was pretty organic given his limited tole but makes sense. He's the badass bounty hunter with a Corinthian helmet and a bunch of gadgets in a space western.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    The elephants in modded warband were hilarious. They were tanks that you could either whittle down or do a perfectly timed horse jump attack.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Dark souls 3 was the first from software game i didn't finish. Just got bored of the same gameplay loop of running into a new boss or encounter, memorizing their animations and then execution them. It's hard to describe but it didn't feel like i was getting good at the game, just getting good at...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Anyone who makes the choice to roll up TaleWorlds forums, a company that took 40 years to release Bannerlord, to give advice on project management skills probably has nothing useful to say about it. brb, going to give some life coaching to a homeless person and hope he doesn't bite me and give...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I can just imagine the creative direction meetings. GRRM: "OK, I've cooked up this complex political structure between different warring nations in..." Hidetaka Miazaki: "Hmm, I'm thinking everything is just fucked with no politics. There's just a bunch of like, zombie kings or something."...

    Guys don't look into offbuilds, stick with the meta. I need to eat.

    Path of Exile

    This sounds like a legend. So many people who like to supplant their mediocrity by gimping themselves to off-meta builds would find this shit, and these people will talk CONSTANTLY about the virtues of their stupid builds that they wouldn't be able to keep a secret.

    The E3 2021 Thread

    I saw this thread and thought about why I don't really care all that much about E3 2021. I feel like over the last ~5 years I've gotten so jaded by the same AAA games being done over and over it's hard to get interested in another round of the same game I've seen before. I couldn't get through...

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    Played a bit more, did a circuit where I traveled to one corner of the map scooping up domain era probes. Ran into a Domain Era Vessel or something I couldn't beat. I'm still having a bit of trouble exerting control my ships. I want to have a nice attack squadron that isolates and murders...

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    Having trouble getting into the game because of the combat. I kind of expected to have tight control of my fleet and be able to out-maneuver the enemy with some Honor Harrington moves. I know I'm just a rookie but I looked up videos of what I think is high level gameplay and it feels like people...

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    I suped up my fastest ship with speed buffs and kite enemy ships around while my forces pick off their ships in piecemeal. So cheap but funny.

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    tutorial, small combat, level 1. I'm only using the Nexerlin mod. I kind of want to dump a bunch of faction / ship mods in but don't know what to pick. I got what feels like halfway through the tutorial. I love the art style, been so long since I played a real 2d game.

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    all right, somebody said this game is kenshi/warband in space so I'm installing this game. Besides Nexerelin what mods should I add. I'm just looking for anything that fixes bugs or whatever and is unlikely to conflict with Nexerelin.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Yeah it's hard to really discuss the viability of the approach without knowing how extensible certain aspects are. Are there any significant impediments to dramatically increasing the print speed, or having people place plumbing electrical in as its being laid down? Can the mechatronic gantry...

    I'm excited for JWST just because of the science and engineering around it. I'd be curious to know what tangible benefits the JWST is expected to provide, or what Hubble has provided. Like, yeah I get that we'll be able to add a few decimals of precision to our knowledge of how tall the eagle...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I wonder how they run the plumbing/electrical. I'm sure it's not too hard. Would be funny if they did it while the concrete was being printed and drying. 3d printed windmill turbines seem weird. I'm not a civil engineer but I figured concrete would be out due to low tensile strength.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    It's an experimental system so any real cost is going to be yuge because it's built by engineers using the one of a kind hardware they designed and any "in 10+ years and when we built a million houses" cost is going to be total bullshit.
