RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

SMAC was so good. I think writing still plays a role in this, you can do a lot if you've got people immersed enough to start thinking "man, what kind of future society do I want to be?" I could see something with more emphasis on that kind of decision making, but it needs longevity. Hmm, tough.

False Idols might be my new favorite quest (and bit of writing) in the game, was so much fun having a companion of sorts on the flagship for a bit. Having someone come with you to problem solve was really unique. Also please keep letting me torment Rayan Arroyo it's funny every time

Now I'm wondering which ship has the best kitchen onboard, I could see the Lion of Sindria himself demanding that the Executor-class have only the finest amenities for their loyal officers...

Exactly this!! It's so hard to make everyone feel engaged and happy with it!!

Drives me nuts seeing AI generated artwork and writing in media, always makes me immediately think "wow, you couldn't find a single human to do this?" It feels disrespectful not just to writers and artists but to consumers too, as if they don't know any better and can't sense it.

I knew absolutely nothing about the games lore going into it, zero. And i was convinced to play the game by a friend and concluded ahead of time i wanted to play a big stupid moron barbarian woman to reflect my clueless ass, so femroe was a natural choice

It would be insanely cool to see some of the ships in Starsector as cross sections, or even just in perspectives that give you a concept of human scale. I always think about what it must look like inside something like an Invictus, it's a whole city! The luddics can probably fit a church in there!
