Why do you carry 2 different multi-tools and a knife? Not hating, they're your pockets afterall, I'm just curious lol
Also, all that shit, and the one thing that's a "sometimes" is your wallet? 😅 "well I've got my 20lbs of misc equipment, but eh I think I'll travel light today, no need to grab my 1oz wallet"
Pretty sure it'd still be vegetarian, just not Vegan then right? At least how I generally have heard it defined, vegetarians are OK with eating food made from animal byproducts (though it's preferable to avoid) and only vegans refuse to consume anything with any animal byproducts
Except those "dumb people" vote, and the people they vote for are the ones that determine which projects get funding and which don't. I'd rather NASA continue to get funding for real science than getting all their funding funneled into investigating "tinfoil stuff". NASA isn't an autonomous organization, they ultimately can only do work on what congress gives them money to do
That would probably help, but I find stealth builds to be really dull in Bethesda games. I do agree though that the mobility is great, I just wish there was zero-g combat (if there is, and I haven't gotten there yet, no spoilers plz)
And yeah star citizen has the best flight model and ship combat mechanics imo - it's a shame about the rest of the game... And to be fair there, there's only so much you can do that with a flight model when it's primarily going to be played on KBM or a game pad, but some games manage to do pretty damn well (Everspace comes to mind as a game with really excellent gamepad controls for spaceflight)
to be fair regarding what was promised, the vast majority of gamers arent out here reading every interview about the game ahead of time, so you can't blame them for seeing a game that takes place in space, with stuff like ship building being one of its big selling points, and then blame them for expecting it to have features on par with the other big name space games from the last decade. Just because it's not promised, doesn't mean it's not missed 🤷🏼♂️ like I said though, it's really not a deal breaker, it just would have been a big selling point for me personally.
I'd imagine that any person who says that UAPs aren't real, isn't aware of the actual definition of UAP. for which, frankly, I blame conspiracy theorists for conflating the term "UAP" with "aliens" just like they did with UFO
NASA already made official statements acknowledging that there are uaps all over the world, they are now saying that they don't have evidence that it's aliens.
Yes, of course UAPs are real, it literally just means "stuff in the sky that we don't know for certain what it is", what it doesn't mean is "aliens", hence NASAs statement
they have not said it's not real we have passed that point.
Again, they said UAPs are real (which again, duh), not that aliens are real
I don't think most people would say that UAPs shouldn't be investigated. Look how much people freaked out over the Chinese spy balloon incident. The dismissal comes when people start to make baseless insinuations about extra terrestrial origin.
And FWIW, we absolutely do investigate UAPs (and by "we" I mean the government), again, it's just in the context of "is this a foreign spy platform" not "is this a flying saucer".
Strong disagree. NASA is fundamentally a scientific organization, it's absolutely their duty to bring a dose of scientific rationality to conversations about UFOs. And besides, NASA absolutely is studying aliens. They're constantly doing observations of exoplanets for signs of life, as well as all the numerous missions across our solar system looking for non earth based life.
If people for some reason think that using some of the most advanced observation equipment ever developed to look for actual aliens is less exciting then tinfoiling over grainy video footage and talking about little green men, then that's their own problem, not NASA's. And giving into that kind of populism would just lead to public pressure on them to waste time and money chasing down conspiracies instead of doing actual science
If actual aliens are here it basically means travelling faster than light is possible.
Not just possible, but dirt cheap, otherwise why would they be constantly dropping down into Earth to see what we're up to.
Really, the whole notion is a bit silly when you think about it rationally. If a society was advanced to the point of cheap FTL (which, I feel the need to point out, isn't just "advanced technology" but "technology that operates in complete defiance to our most fundamental understandings of physics"), why on earth would they be dipping into the actual atmosphere, doing landings, or flying by private aircraft? Surely a society with such breathtaking technology could drop a single spy satellite into orbit and get every piece of info they could possibly want about us, especially now that we're in the digital age.
I have no doubt that alien life of some sort is out there, very possibly it's even prolific (though that doesn't seem to be the case based on our admittedly limited observations of exoplanets), but there's no rational basis for thinking that an advanced alien society would have either the means, nor the motivation, to constantly pop down to earth to screw with pilots, farmers, etc.
Literally the first game I ever played in VR, but it kind of stands as a good example of what I'm talking about. It's literally almost a decade old and is still at the top of most people's VR game lists. The VR gaming industry has stagnated big time.
And honestly what we need are more games like HL:A and (arguably) boneworks, real games, with a plot, characters, etc. Vertigo 2 is the only game I can think of that has come out recently that meets those criteria, and even that felt pretty cheap and unpolished
I definetely fall under that umbrella, I've got mods downloaded, but didn't bother with the achievement mod. I downloaded my mods after the first mission though.
I'm enjoying starfield for sure, but I think it does have a fair few faults, though I'll be the first to admit that a lot of them are subjective. For instance I can't stand bullet sponge enemies and the bullet sponge is strong with starfield. Drives me crazy when I can literally empty an entire magazine of an auto shotgun pointblank into an enemies face, and have it only take them down to like 40% health lol. I grabbed a mod that helps with it, but its still pretty bad, even with that mod, and it breaks the balance a bit. Hoping that once proper mod support is in we get something better.
I also think the whole "spaceship" part of the game is pretty half-baked, I wasn't expecting E:D levels of piloting immersion, but I'd have hoped for more than basically a series of menus and loading screens for interstellar travel. Additionally ship combat balancing is pretty rough, all the encounters I've done so far have felt comically easy, or ridiculously hard (The final mission of a certain UC Vanguard mission comes to mind...)
Overall though I'm definetely having a lot of fun though, and while there are bugs, it's definetely one the least buggy Bethesda titles we've seen so far, and definetely less buggy (in my experience) than BG3
Or when they extropolate from America the country being shit, to every individual American being shit for having the audacity to have been born here.
Most of us would also rather it wasn't like this, but our families, friends, and livelihoods are here, so generally speaking it's not practical to just up and leave. And our political system is to broken for us to really fix via voting
Trash on the country all you want, I'll join in with you - but don't blame the folks who are just trying to live the best we can in this fucked up country
I live in CA, literally entrenched in the history of "the old west" and I can honestly say not a single person I know has any cowboy memorabilia in their homes lol.
My dad had a little cast iron statue of a cowboy wrangling a bull on his desk at work growing up (a gift from a client) , but that is literally the only instance I can think of lol
And I also don't know a single person who regularly watches cowboy movies, I can't even remember the last time a cowboy movie was made in the US.. I think that remake with Chris Pratt?
