    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    Female hawk VA was fine I thought - it's the same VA as female V in Cyberpunk 2077 I think

    That's common in lots of places - it's hard work and frequently for very little pay or volatile pay.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Might need to do this for the mounts since I don't have those. Final major patch before Evercold also comes out Tuesday, including the finale of the MSQ for Dawntrail

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    Cly is probably my most elite unit as well. Tel is really good also once you get her leveled up. Her crits will one shot a lot of units as well and force pushing/pulling stuff to instakill or negate cover/pull into overwatch s really powerful

    Season 3 of Foundation was really good I thought as well (Empire/Daemazel stuff mostly)

    The Blood of Dawnwalker

    Timers can work in very specific instances. But adding a timer in an open world game is dumb. It would be like someone drops you off in Rome and says “you have two hours to explore, then we leave”. Sure, you can see some stuff, but you’re just going to be bitter that you didn’t have enough...

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    The Lower Deck writers actually knew the lore, so that would be an improvement

    Meh, not good. I hope that doesn’t impact their ability to provide additional content updates or expansions

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    All good suggestions. I think a “simultaneous operation” would be cool. Like you have an operation that requires two things to be done and requires two squads, but the actions of either squad effects the other Like one team has to bring down a shield or cause a distraction, which makes it...

    I slept on pistol until I saw how useful it could be on the Mando. The low AP cost and good damage output are nice

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    I would disagree - cover in this seems a bit more complex. First is the sturdiness of the cover - cover types matter because some of it falls quickly to blaster fire. Xcom mostly had a lot of indestructible cover not counting explosives or super high powered projectiles. The game also seems...

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    I mean you don’t have to use any story characters outside a few mandatory missions - you could roll with 100% custom since you can customize the appearance of the mercs you hire

    Speaking of spicy, is Dave's Hot Chicken any good?

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    In theory it lets you customize your squad a bit more, but I agree I end up using either the story/special characters (because they have unique perks/abilities) or stuff like astromechs. Again it kind of comes down to the limited squad size - why would I bring a random recruit when I can...

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    I stuck with the sniper rifle - made my sniper character do a secondary in scoundrel since it lets you ignore armor as a passive. They're basically an overwatch/assist terror. I enjoyed the mission on Bespin when you get to use that special unit - I basically spent their entire turn tossing...

    Stargate SG-1

    Pretty much - it's a power scale nerf since humans were basically god tier by the end of the shows, but they leave the door open to introduce stuff as needed.

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    This game could do that easily - I've noticed it's version of dark events are permanent and usually you can only prevent 1 at any given time from going into effect Like my options were coil units all get grenades or melee hits build resonance. Grenades was the easy choice to get rid of since...

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Both were. Although Artax was probably more traumatizing because as a little kid you thought the horse actually died

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    The 4 man squad limit is my biggest complaint about the game - it really limits your ability to mix and match or experiment more. It becomes even more frustrating on missions where it has some arbitrarily short time limit to do an action while simultaneously tossing 15 enemies at you. I had to...

    Ya the trailer had like a crane that didn’t work or something? I barely remember that part of the toy because I never used it either My parents gave away my Transformer toys when I was a kid because I got guilted into giving them permission to give them away by like 4 adults lol

    It still goes hand in hand with resources. If you look back in history, the people who became kings typically controlled the food. Once that system is in place, you don’t have many options. If you control the food, then you have a chance to become the new elite class, which allows you to...

    The First Descendant

    Considering their daily user count on steam, 6000ish is pretty damn high. You’d be banning a huge chunk of your active gaming population. Those 62 must have been giga exploiting for days on end, whereas I imagine most people tried it for like an hour or so and got bored

    You’re thinking too narrow on resources in terms of commodities. Land itself is a resource. The Puritan extremists that came over to the Americas wanted to establish their version of an ideal society that Europe wanted nothing to do with. Land, stuff to build with, food = resources The...

    Game is pretty unforgiving on hard once you get past the early missions. Clone trooper dude is great but the AP bottleneck is real with him and he is slow AF

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    Usually the easiest fix is setting fps from infinite to a different number. I had that problem in Helldivers, the video card would go nuts on some missions or during loading. Once I capped frames, it fixed it I capped frames at like 120 or something and everything on ultra and it runs/looks...

    Human migration like that is driven by one thing: resources. Be it resources you can use to build your civilization, or resources you can use to gain different resources (aka get rich selling it). The 2nd reason is more or less deleted if it takes decades or more of travel. I mean sure, you...

    There has to be enough people using the new C64s to make it at least worth it from a niche perspective. I occasionally watched videos from a channel called Retro Recipes and they were big into restoring old computers, but they invested in the new C64 production and most of their new stuff is...

    Except they are stuck there with no external way to resupply. Size is also a factor of population - the ship in the expanse was big from our perspective, but what about with 5000 people? 10000? more? You're going to have to manage your resources - when you start getting into decades or...

    My understanding is they were approached by EA to make it, but no clue how much involvement EA had. Can almost 99.9% guarantee lack of official mod support is from EA’s influence - why give for free what you can charge money for

    Zero Company - Star Wars XCom

    A few streamers have early access. Was watching the tutorial mission - between skirmishes you can WASD in third person behind the shoulder to move the squad through the mission at times. Effects seem nice for gunfire/explosions. Hard to tell from the tutorial alone - I know xcom had pretty...
