There’s the problem. You bought a BSG rpg wanting it to not be a BSG rpg. They will always make this style of game. If you want a different style of game, they will disappoint you.

Ive been playing BSG rpgs since Morrowind, and so I got exactly what I was expecting, with some cool extra bits on top. And as such, I absolutely love it!

I played Outer Worlds and, I think I completed it. The setting got old and the plot… what was the plot again…? I’m like 90% sure I finished it but I couldn’t tell you what happened.

Contrast that to Starfield, I’ve completed two faction quest lines and they were both superb. They took unexpected twists and turns and were full of lore and interesting characters. The Crimsom Fleet quest line was epic, and payed off in just the right way for me (seriously the discovery at the end is 🤌). The Rjujin quest line was also great, and took such an unexpected turn from the initial thing of applying for an office job. Also the toy you get from the questine is really fun to play with, crazy that someone might play the whole game and miss it because they thought applying for a corp job would be boring.

At the moment I’m taking a break from story missions, and I’ve been taking pirate hunting bounties, and just exploring. I’ve found loads of random encounters and followed threads to some epic stuff. And I’ve still only just started the main quest line.

The game is so much deeper than Outer Worlds, while also being far broader. Also, Bethesda make open world games, if they had released something as stripped back and linear as OW, they pull have been torn apart for it, even more than they are now.

Oh man of I could customise a buggy as well, and have that buggy drove out of my customised ship, I’d be so bloody happy about that

From the article it looks like that was an issue with ZeniMax Online Studios

Fallout76 was a bad game. Not really evil though. And I heard it got much better, admittedly long after launch. I really enjoyed Fallout 4 but I get that I was in the minority there. Either way, I don’t think a company should be totally panned just because they made the main character voiced instead of silent. Re-releasing Skyrim got old, but you don’t have to buy it, lol. I don’t know what you mean about their launcher. Was it bad? You could always start the games from the exe as well. You’ll be happy to know there’s no launcher for Starfield anyway.

I think they’ve made something amazing with Starfield, although it starts quite slowly.

Pirate the game if you want, no judgement from me, but don’t justify it by pretending its some moral good.

The plumber was being silly with the cat

Oh why not, it’s a really good game. Did Beth do something evil or something?

I’ll add the Discworld games. And Simon the Sorcerer!

Yeah the lack of city maps is frustrating. So hard to find your way to certain places without a mission to go there.

Just in case you don’t know, CP2077 is great now, and set to get better when the dlc drops soon.

Starfield early access hits tomorrow, I think it’s gonna be tricky to convince myself to also do my washing, shopping, etc. this weekend!

That’s really scummy. A lot ofnpeopke have been paying $45 a month ans been told they woukd get a new phone at the end of it. Now they just change their mind? How is that not breach of contract? Looks like a class action is needed here!

Here’s changed their name to Evri to try and escape their terrible reputation.

Wtf did you just call me?!

Supposed to be a troll I think, but that blatantly a goblin

Also the military cosplay guy has a swastika on his arm.

I’m stumped.

They said they don’t drive

I think it’s just straight up whistle

New here. I was reading all the snarky strawman comments here and thinking “what the fuck are these people on?”. Then I read your comment, which is clearly and concisely written, and makes good points. I hadn’t thought of it that way and it makes a lot of sense. Not saying my view is totally flipped around, but that’s some food for thought and I’ll be snacking down.

Now will the rest of you calm down about owning libs and speak nicely to each other?

Its just how photography copyright law works. The person who presses the button owns the photo. I was a wedding photog or a while. I wouldn’t stop the couples sharing my photos on social media, but they wouldn’t be allowed to sell the photos for use in marketing or anything. Nit that ot ever came up.

If a couple asked me not to use their photos for advertising then I would have taken them down, not because I was legally obliged to, but because I’m not a horrible person.

When I was getting started I charged less, because I didn’t have examples of my work at weddings. But I made it very clear to the couple that I would be using the photos for advertising o get my business off the ground, so they knew their pics would be all over my website, etc.
