What are your favorite neurofeedback "games"?

Mass Effect is the greatest game ever made and anyone who doesn't enjoy "making the rounds" giving emotional support to grown ass adults after every fight is retarded.

That's funny, I was just lamenting that there is no sequel to Black and White 2. This looks like the boring half of Black and White, all the frumpy villagers but no creature to train to fuck with them.

ME2 is great. Only thing that would've made it better is the real mako and podracing.

I know you're being facetious but it was great the first time through when I played it on release, and the second time when I replayed it to get the perfect completionist ending. But the third time through I mostly want to enjoy the mechanics and high points, but also feel obligated to resolve...

Biggest reason I probably won't ever replay ME is because I'd feel compelled to deal with the squad mate drama again. It felt like taking high school drama problems and applying them to a crack team of galaxy saving soldiers. And the romance in ME never paid off because you never got to hatefuck...

If they made a driving simulator game built around Mako and Pod Racer physics it would be game of the decade.

I fucking love pod racing. Who wants to fight me about it?!?

After being a big fan of bone conducting headphones, an implant that let me play audio without them would be compelling if it did visual as well as audio.

Yeah I didn't really plan to do it like that. It wasn't until I was mostly done when I realized how similar it is to my research factory.

Smart! and AreaActions are it that I've tried.

What's the best way to trick a kid into getting into Pokemon so I can justify my purchase and play it with or without him????

How I think I'd do it: Grand plan making the game open-source and ultimately unprofitable How I'd actually do it: Wake up, realize I'm developing a 25 year old game and find a new job

Just unlocked nuclear. The ring design is holding up well. It's a bit laborious to create a ring everytime I add a new ingredient, but it makes teching up for the first time with unknown growth patterns pretty straightforward. I just need to pick an open spot, plunk down some manufacturers and...

Yeah I mistyped, I want to replay as vanguard and basically build a team all around charge->nova, which I totally enjoyed as an alt class to infiltrator on ME3 multiplayer. I have to imagine this build is tough on insanity but there's gotta be a way to cheese it even at non-journalist mode.

I kind of want to play through the trilogy again as an adept and wombo combo the fuck out of everything. It'd be irresistible if there was a mod to play as Volus Adept

Yeah it was interesting going hard on ME3's multiplayer preview before ME3's release. In order you survive you had to fight very aggressively, always dealing damage or you'd be overwhelmed. Once ME3 came out I used the same strategy on the hardest difficulty and got smoked constantly until I...

my circuit board factory, first usage of oil, don't know what to do with fuel or petroleum coke yet

They aren't "some indie studio", they are a "medium dev teams of 33 people". Even if they were owned by Disney they are greatly aided by Unreal Engine and Satisfactory is better than what it'd be if they went with Unity, OGRE or they rolled their own engine.

So for a mega-factory like this, how do you typically get from mining ore to the top of the pyramid? Do you bring the raw ore in by train and then process it from the ground up to the Assembly Director Systems? Also, it's not a big deal but I kind of wish the awesome sink was just the Space...

This comment is three years old, but I figure I'd drag it out of the grave even if it'll annoy Brahma. Epic gets a pass from me on their Epic Storefront because they are supplying the game dev community (as well as non-game devs like me that use Unreal!!) with a pretty far-reaching ecosystem...

I haven't given it much thought and I'm just learning the ropes in Satisfactory but looking back at previous builds I've done in games I tend to try and "unify" the aesthetics promoted by the game with what is materially-efficient once built and time-efficient to build. I really like the...

Interesting, I kind of figured even the highest tier belt would start to bottleneck as I scaled up. Maybe I'll start overlapping different materials when I get to ten rings wide. I just built my first oil extractor, so I'm just hitting mid-game. I have no real clue how many different items might...

What's the advantage to stacking them? I kept them unstacked to allow me to stack the same type later, and make it easier to add a splitter / merger to the one I want.

I just about refactoring my starting base to accommodate my mini-factory in-situ approach. I created a semi-circle (accidentally, a heart) bus that wraps around where I chucked my space elevator. I'm probably going to create a "basic copper" mini-factory out of my copper mess. No idea how well...

"inventory space isn't an issue" *has 80% of inventory occupied by 40 carefully chosen items and quantities* *spends weekend creating a "main storage area" to quickly choose and balance item quantities*

Your factories produce only lies.

my stator factory

my first "double wide" factory. Copied my reinforced steel plate factory and then built a screw factory next to it and topped it with 2x bolted frame assemblers. I'm actually using the route images I'm making to help attach all the belts / lifts. The AreaAction mod not replicating them is a...

Cool, that's probably what I'm looking for. Is that something a lot of people actually do? In DSP you could infinitely improve mining speed, drone speed etc with exponentially increasing costs, so there was a benefit to scaling up your research. I'm guessing there's nothing similar in Satisfactory?

here's today's build, rotors! In the background is the copy-paste version next to some other mines.

Cool. I kind of liked how DSP had science/minute to quantify people's productivity. IIRC by the time I finished I had 4k science/minute, which meant I could do the last research level every minute, which I'm guessing is similar to "employee of the month".

So in dyson sphere program the productivity of what the player made was measured in how many of the final research component (white cubes) were made a minute. These were used to indefinitely improve stuff. Is there an analog in this game?

The dribble of road to mark what's in storage is genius.

aaand copy pasted with AreaActions, cool. Too bad the mod author seems to have gotten defeated by C++ and never implemented belts or saving of blueprints.

Made my first vertical factory, real simple!

Installed Smart! last night, which seems to speed things up. Also got AreaCopy but haven't used it much. I ditched the Third Person View mod, didn't like it. I'm still at the same tech level as the above images. I want to upgrade my miners to Mk II and use their output and rework my current...

Yeah, it's rare that I'll read it when I could be doing anything else. Even as the "baseline" activity it's a huge part of my life now because there is so much time enriched by it. Even chores like mowing the lawn, doing dishes etc are amenable. It's opened up the whole literary world for me...

Not sure if this counts but I listen to audiobooks when I fall asleep. I think this is normal but it's always taken me 30m+ to fall asleep, sometimes several hours. I've always been annoyed by how wasteful and boring that was, but now I lay down, turn on an audiobook and when I "feel" tired I...
