There was a time when I was more sympathetic to conservative conerns over SJW (this was before the term "woke" took off) preachiness and naivete. I agree it doesn't make much sense for everywhere to be a diverse, multi-ethnic hub straight out of a corporate DEI program. But then I ran up into the thing that presumably turns off every other educated person off when they try to deal with conservative thought. Conservatives are fucking luddites. Like say you're a geologist who believes in traditional family values but you're also studying groundwater reservoirs and notice current agricultural practices are exploiting the resource too rapidly which will lead to poor crop yields and sinkholes in a decade or so. If you try to point this out to a conservative, they will call you a woke soyjak and invent conspiracies for why your data was fabricated by Soros in an effort to use regulatory standards to pacify and control the population. At that point your cultural concerns become secondary to the fact that a buch of moronic hicks are going to destroy the local industry and then beg for bailouts all the while never even realizing that their own dumbassery caused the problem in the first place.

These are not "conservative" concerns. They are normal, self respecting people concerns. You are not normal. Nor do you have self respect. You are pathetic.

When there is crowd panic because of shooting or some shit it's not even localized yelling and screaming, it's just some distant "yelling crowd" sound effect playing in the background.
Wait, so let's say we have an NPC her X and you are here O X----O Then the sound is, what?, here? S-----X----O?
X doesn't have a sound, it's just background noise. You hear a screaming crowd "somewhere". Like a laughter track in a sitcom from an audience that doesn't exist.

thats actually a good mod idea. replace screaming crowd with a sitcom laugh track

Yo, guys, I decided to give this game another try, but instead of doing boring missions just play around.


So I tried landing on Phobos, Mars' moon. GUESS WHAT BECAUSE I DIDN'T EXPECT IT. YOU CAN FLY INTO IT AND NOTHING HAPPENS - no landing, no crash... YOU JUST CLIP THROUGH IT WHAT THE FUCK

Just from looking at the screenshots in this thread, this game has the largest amount of $currentyear looking characters out of any recent release. It's insane.

This was apparently his real trigger.


Somehow I feel many Codex users would want their own sex-swapped clone.

Really? In my game Phobos is just a big asteroid and I can't clip through it, it's solid. I can't land on it either because it's not a planet. Can't reproduce your issue.




You can land on any planet except gas giants if you just double click anywhere on the planet's surface you will land on that location.

But you can walk around Venus in your shitty suit. Daylight with 500 Celsius? Duh, that's nothing. There's even copy-pasted from other planets 'abandoned mine' with a bunch of fellas, waiting lonely on this planet until someone arrives so they can shoot him, lmao

I am the starman now.

I am disappointed that I cannot find an edit of this titled Stallman.

So you crash when you hit it? Because I flew just right through it.

The shops in the city sell resources at an affordable price for outpost building/research by the way
What's the point of searching for those resources in the wild then?

I remember Skyrim had ore mines. You could explore the world for the purpose of finding those mines to mine the type of ore that you needed for your crafting. But you could also just buy ore from merchants which destroyed the reason to go out and explore. And it was affordable too, considering Skyrim's totally broken economy.

Yeah TESVI has no chance if they keep their current team of writers. It’s very obvious there was no pushback on the dumb shit they came up with for Starfield.
It's not the writing.

They need to completely abandon their old systems, starting with Gamebryo.
Oh it’s definitely the writing I have an issue with in Starfield. Like being forced to listen to an old white man talk to his brown wife about her only keeping him around because he’s convenient before I can continue the quest. Why does this conversation exist? What does it add? I’ll take Bethesda’s dull writing from their past games over whatever the fuck that is.


Also Todd will continue to use Gamebryo until he retires in 10 years.

yeah, I crashed, looks like a bug for you. I've seen a lot of graphical glitches in my game too so far.
