Thallax are basically human dreadnoughts

So basically robots

They're more of a marine equivelent

tbh

Even got power armor

crystal forum
#

we love torment engines

lofty sedge
#

No, cuz the only thing left of a Thallax is their head and spinal cord

#

They have no torso/limbs

#

They're basically human minds implanted into a robot body

arctic talon
#

nervous system as well

crystal forum
#

every faction in the imperium has to have the "suffering torment unit"

arctic talon
#

you forgot the nervous system

lofty sedge
#

Spinal cord includes that

arctic talon
#

nah the whole

#

neverous system is intact

lofty sedge
#

Also, idk if they were suffering tbh

arctic talon
#

they are

a lobotomy doesn't make you immune to pain

#

in fact it doesn't touch that part of your brain at all

lofty sedge
#

They excised some of their emotional centers to reduce the pain

arctic talon
#

they get rewarded painkillers

#

for killing people

crystal forum
#

pain isn't an emotion!!!

arctic talon

#

it simply removes the distress

#

from pain

#

not pain itself

crystal forum

i forgot which part of the brain has pain

but it's one of the baser ones

#

A microcosm of Bethesda's problems and virtues

#

Problems:

  • the story being more hollow than my skull
  • your choices don't matter nor does it include anything from the base game. What about the different factions from the base game?
  • it's not like there's many choices anyways, there's only two endings
  • the raider factions themselves are somehow less detailed than say... the unknown SM chapters in the depths of the lexicanum

#

The furries
Playing with knives
Gun

opaque coyote
#

Virtues:

  • Exploration itself is fun
  • The side quests are actually really fun also
  • New toys to play with
#
  • It isn't... painful to go through the main quest line?
#
  • water gun

I remember the basic rifle being slightly goofy busted

The basic rifle just isn't good either

Too heavy, gets outpaced before you find it, looks terrible

I just

#

I just don't like how it looks

#

It looks so ugly

#

For fucks sake NV had the BAR just use that

#

Or the G3 from Fallout 3

#

Why is the only automatic rifle a fucking WW1 based lmg

opaque coyote
#

Kinda strange given that there's already a .44 magnum

#

But hey it's fun

#

Seriously would've been an opportunity to implement the 12.7 mm pistol from FNV

#

Or just a Deagle

Guys what souls like game would you recommend to bow players

#

(for context I already done all fromsoft games with bow only except sekiro)

opaque coyote
#

You can dual wield crossbows

#

And use them at the same time

#

A popular pvp build, although it got nerfed, was to use two Avelyns

remote wadi
#

Thanks

opaque coyote
#

Oh no wait

#

You can farm it to get a second one

#

Would take a while though

opaque coyote
#

Dark Souls 2 is easily the wildest game in terms of what you can do tbh

#

You can do some truly demented bullshit

#

The saddest part about Elden Ring was that Powerstancing was kinda nerfed to shit in comparison to DS2

#

Which is sad because again

#

DS2 Powerstancing was fun as FUCK

Aside from the fact that he changes you

Nurgle doesn’t love anyone

Nids aren’t evil because they are hungry

Mf Hannibal lector wasn’t evil he was just hungry

sly zenith

Yeah nids are evil lmao

Never heard that one

There is a variant of tyranid that can feel pleasure and hate. And it does things that could be considered sadistic

valid needle

If Nids were truly dumb animals they wouldn’t be able to outsmart and overrun most of the galaxies factions

Like imperium fans saying we’re not also evil

looks like they took a page from the aftermarket quest 3 head straps

and made it better

it looks much comfier than the standard quest 3 strap

hallow plover
#

I dread the prices

spring cairn

they said it won't be more expensive than the index

#

so there's that at least

hallow plover
#

Yea but will it be affected by tariffs

#

My maple bucks can't get much american things these days

crystal forum
#

also it was expected for the new headset to be standalone since that's where the market is right now. direct to PC cable is dead

steam machine looks v good too but i'm more after SteamOS

would love to get that separately for my pc

"new technology allows for the highest resolution streaming where your eyes are looking"

wintry cloud
sly zenith

Lmao

crystal forum
#

so the headset adapts to where you're looking or something?

at least this means it has eye tracking

No it’s probably a joke

It’s a Reddit thing and it should be purged

i have to go through meta then link to my PC

crystal forum
#

and meta just keeps having issues with my PC

spring cairn
#

I was more talking about the sensors you have to put in the corners of ur room but i get it

crystal forum
#

i dont fucking use the meta UI at all it sucks so much

spring cairn
#

yeah

crystal forum
#

that hasnt been a thing for a while

#

current VR just scans your room with cameras on the headset

#

which also lets you do augmented reality stuff

spring cairn
#

valve index is top quality but the setup is basically ur entire room

crystal forum
#

yeah it's just old

#

it was good when it came out

spring cairn
#

holds up if you don't factor the setup imo

crystal forum
#

well it cant work standalone

#

it has to be connected to a cable

#

that's pretty ancient

#

even though i barely use my headset without being connected to my PC, it helps a lot with moving around the room when i need to do stuff without having to remove the whole headset

#

oh also

#

this is interesting

#

with the quest 3 you cant really do much if you're in a room that's not fully illuminated because the cameras cant scan

#

IR illuminators means this headset could function in a completely dark room maybe

#

good for spooky experiences

wintry cloud
#

This little energon cube being a console is actually cool

crystal forum
#

this thing is literally a gen 1 night vision device

#

i am not making a joke

wintry cloud
#

Looks really easy and plug and play

#

I do want that controller the most though since i already have a PC

sly zenith
#

Google FN-MTL-30

#

They made the boltor real

crystal forum
#

CPU of the frame

#

CPU of meta 3

#

some pretty good improvements over the meta 3

#

so standalone it will be even better

#

not that steam users will use it often that way since standalone graphics suck ass

#

VR chat is borderline unplayable without a PC connection just because of all the huge player models

#

you could get a total of 2TB of storage if you get the 1TB internal storage and a 1TB micro sd which is fucking insane

#

plus of course you could quickly switch out the micro SD's if you want to divide your entire library into a couple of SD's

#

this headset is really going to be the best on the market if valve delivers

#

definitely blows away the meta quest 3

#

though it probably wont be cheaper than the quest 3S

#

meta has been focusing way more on making VR accessible recently

I am aware different ethnic coding can and has been in this specific legion, and that they aren’t all black coded

they can be ethnically caucasian black asian south american but their skin is charcoal black

in fact they go to war with the NCR over it

they're more tolerant in 2 but still assholes

anyways fallout should not fucking be about the BOS

languid meadow
#

they don't go to war over outsiders since they've been openly recruiting for decades at that point

they go to war because the NCR started taking all the enclave tech and the BoS hey wait a min that's our shit

the thing about starfield (ive given this schpiel 1000 places but not here i think) is that beth open world games thrived on the gameplay cycle of "you're at A and sent to B but along the way you find C which tells you about D" and they cut out the entire concept lol

Ok let me try to explain this to you before your soft spot collapses

I am gonna say it

Enclave did nothing wrong.

crystal forum

they straight up did not intend you to survive, like they expected you to die. idk how more clear i can make it

languid meadow
#

EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT THE GLOW AND HOW IT IS DANGEROUS, they don't expect you to even TRY and do the task. It is not their fault we are insane and don't really know about the glow

crystal forum
#

they literally talk to you like you're a moron

languid meadow
#

it's like saying "hey get my shit from a volcano" of course you're not gonna do it

#

they know no one is stupid enough to try

or insane enough

you can't tell me the guy doesn't expect you to die

i love the cheek thing he does after giving you the quest

#

like "oh boy"

#

clay models are so cool

languid meadow
#

he doesn't even expect you to try, you can ask around the wasteland about the area and they'll be like "shit is dangerous don't go there" again they are assholes but not evil. Because he expects you to know about the place already.

#

like im not gonna say they ain't pricks

#

they are

#

but not evil

prime seal
#

"go kill yourself"
-a not very evil asshole

crystal forum
#

they don't even want anything to do with you unless you do the crazy task and prove yourself useful

#

also isn't it crazy how much fallout lore comes directly from 1

#

like that game created everything

prime seal
#

how is it crazy?

storm jungle

nothing

crystal forum

#

that's why I like tactics BoS

they're evil

storm jungle

Aw man 😔

crystal forum

imagine if there was only the first fallout

#

it would still hold solid

prime seal
crystal forum
#

just really good worldbuilding

prime seal

all the writers got to do their thing

languid meadow
#

I still think 1 is better than 2 in most aspects

crystal forum
#

and tim cain!!

#

my fav gay game dev

prime seal
#

2 plays better

crystal forum
#

i dont like comparing 1 and 2 because i like both

#

though 2 has better gameplay

#

and more variety

languid meadow
#

yeah gameplay wise 2 is better but I think 2 just feels like it tries to hard comedy wise but it can be really funny

prime seal
#

and theres more stuff you can do and you can go about doing things with more options

crystal forum
#

also something the fallout games forgot with 3 is how much it's inspired by mad max

prime seal
#

first game with gay marriage was f2

crystal forum
#

there's tons of mad max looking vehicles in 1 and 2

#

and ofc tactics

#

3 must have ignored that because the engine couldn't handle vehicles

#

so now we have no mad max stuff at all in the setting

languid meadow
#

the engine could barely handle the capital wasteland so yeah it would explode if more than just vertibirds were around

prime seal
crystal forum
#

it could have been accommodating for cars if the engine could handle it

#

but the engine is picked before the game is even designed

prime seal
#

idk i still think we wouldnt get a car due to a game design issue

#

a faster on foot option would have been better either way

#

because f3 sucks at directing you toward the cool stuff

near wasp
#

At this point walking around is the fallout vibe

crystal forum
#

it would have been a ton of work to make it all work

#

with cars

#

4 maybe could have had a car system if the power armor wasn't so prominent

prime seal
#

the game doest even have ads

#

and you expect them to add cars lol

crystal forum
#

and when you think about it power armor in 4 is like a car system

#

the customization and stuff

#

you even had greasers lol

prime seal
#

fallout 4 was really revolutionary

#

you could build

#

I forgot the hellcat company existed

oh yeah fallout 4 had a criminal lack of good vaults

which is so weird considering how vaults are like THE iconic fallout dungeon

opaque coyote

I think the only good was lord of the flies one

opaque coyote

Because they decided to put the invaders

I wish we got that underwater vault

"Oh thank god... I thought it was good"

there's a ton of leftover files

vagrant fox
#

o yea

crystal forum
#

again if they just didnt fucking make settlements we could have had this kind of stuff

languid meadow
#

if there is one thing every fallout game fumbles it's the merc companies

crystal forum
#

they must have wasted so much time making buildable shit

opaque coyote
#

Like

#

Walls are useless

#

Because they literally just teleport through it

spring cairn
#

the biggest fumble of fallout games (not including 1 and 2) is that they're made by bethesda

opaque coyote
#

What about NV

#

Literally not made by Bethesda only published

prime seal
languid meadow
spring cairn
#

NV is decent but I can still smell the bethesda cuz what said above

#

therefore

#

i look down upon it with my superior eyes

crystal forum
#

i dont like how boston was made

prime seal
#

interplay straight up stole the snowblind engine just to make a bad game

spring cairn
#

total bethesda death

languid meadow
#

Interplay after Fo2 kind of sucks

#

like lets be real

vagrant fox
#

I do wonder what's happened with Bethesda, they made kind of mid but kind of fun games but after Starfield boy do I wonder if all the talent has just left

spring cairn
#

they made 1 game

surreal nest

and they make it again

#

and again

Bethesda was never good

opaque coyote

skyrim and oblivion are full of fantastic additions to the lore

spring cairn
#

skyrim is a crime scene

#

with blood and guts everywhere

languid meadow
#

gameplay and main story wise sure

#

but world building?

#

pretty good

prime seal
#

the deadric realms arent ever fully fleshed out in morrowind

#

most of the worldbuilding comes from oblivion

languid meadow
#

well you only really see two iirc

crystal forum
#

anyways all the good talent at interplay left for obsidian and deep silver

spring cairn
#

no the dlc was kinda cool but still

#

with tentacle man

#

but still

#

they butchered the nords

opaque coyote
# spring cairn skyrim is a crime scene

Hottest take I have.

I think Bethesda should bite the bullet. Embrace the meme.

Do a full remake of Skyrim.

I wanna see a better version of the civil war quest line.

crystal forum
#

bethesda should just die so elder scrolls and fallout can go to more competent hands

prime seal
#

elder scrolls lore is something you dont get to experience playing the game

spring cairn

bethesda should just die so i don't have to see Todd anymore

at any gameshow evar

at this point bethesda is just sitting on elder scrolls lol

opaque coyote
languid meadow
#

while true you only really see two main ones in oblivion, and I think 3(?) in skyrim

prime seal
#

they should bring back kirkbride

#

and work on his vision

languid meadow
#

some of his stuff is cool some of it is not

prime seal
#

c0da was a massively interesting read

languid meadow
#

ok bringing this back to the nords

#

I like his stuff but I also like what bethesda did

#

because it makes sense in the game

#

they're not really nords anymore they're imperials cosplaying nords

prime seal
spring cairn
#

notmynords

languid meadow
#

Hold on

prime seal

tl;dr read c0da

spring cairn

og nords were like cartoon barbarians

prime seal

its unofficial but parts of it are referenced within official tes media

the kirk post is on his tumblr and I don't have an account

its also a deconstruction of canon being choosen by the corporation through official media

spring cairn

either way I like what they did to the nords in Skyrim besides the cities but that's like an engine shit

Also I like the fact that Khajiit can be anywhere from just a panther to a normal dude with hairy ears or something depending on the moon cycle when they were born

so i agree

Racism across all settings I see

#

im glad we dont have to deal with such things IRL

not but fr I recalle a book on khajiits about how in their culture the concept of property is literally "different"

i'm going to try and find it

ok they're not literally all in NYC that's just racist dude

the list of beastfolk is interesting but it sucks we prob wont see more sentient/sapient ones

khajiit can also manipulate space and time to spread lies accross it
