Speaking of Nee Vegas and things that suck how would you salvage the storyline of the frontier ? I'd make it so that , while you do go explore a space station, it's one that never launched and is currently being used as headquarters by a local warlord. The hero is not the courier but is instead the intern. The NCR base consists of twenty people because Portland is not a priority for the NCR. Dr. Voss was H-Bomb's edgy pre-war soda mascot infamous for his radio ads where he'd kidnap whole families and force them to try H-Bomb in twisted experiments. They even paid a few actors to play him in public appearances. One of the local warlords is broadcasting as him. Blackthorne was real but he was a colonel who Elijah fried for trying to prevent him from shooting wounded BOS soldiers His brother is leading the NCR detachment trying to establish friendly relations with Portland. Tiberius Rancor is a Legion defector who requested being posted as far from the Legion as possible. The Enclave remnants are a gated community instead of an evil space station and are broadcasting music. The Snake People are instead a weird snake worshipping cult. The Legion isn't involved. The Crusaders don't exist. There is a brotherhood detachment but it's small and was only sent up here to investigate what Elijah did in Portland. It consists of a Mormon missionary, 3 knights, two scribes, a local scavenger named Charlene Yong with odd powers and a history with the Brotherhood, and a strange deranged teenager named AmeriKKKa who gives a backstory that doesn't make sense, is freakishly strong, can survive anything short of a fatman to the face, and is hiding a secret that may destroy the NCR as we know it. Also enslaving her leads to a bad end. “AmeriKKKa was now the courier's slave, but women are not little china dolls and their hearts are not toys to be played with. Sick of being constantly left alone in the Lucky 38 AmeriKKKa eventually hacked a

group of securitfons to ambush the courier and forcibly drag him back to the Lucky 38. She then broke the courier's legs with a sledgehammer after he said she was crazy and ordered her out of his apartment. He lived out the rest of his days bedridden as AmeriKKKa's beloved prisoner, given everything he could ever want except freedom. It turns out playing sadistic mind games with the mentally unstable and superstrong may lead to bad outcomes. A lesson we can all take to heart.”

A game called Hardspace: Shipbreaker sucks so much harder than any of this.

From @kinek

Corps bad, but also 7 minute voiced non-cutscenes of talking head characters talking about shit I don't care about instead of letting me get back to cutting up ships. Unskippable too, so you're forced to experience the majesty of some baby's first union narrative.

Imagine stopping gameplay to do something like land acknowledgement every 15 minutes with unlikeable annoying characters.

From @2DBussy

Reminds me of Hardspace Shipbreaker, where some new diversity hire came in during early access development and trashed the small scenario about a rogue AI, to turn it into unskippable podcast cutscenes of a girlboss black woman talking about unionizing against le ebil corporation (in the end union wins but literally nothing changes lmao).

the black girlboss is also a lesbian that overshares about fricking everything and coupled with the unskippable podcast scenes makes you regret owning a computer

The background and setting never changes from this generic floating spaceship breaker/spaceyard with some cosmetic upgrades that do nothing to the empty space station you have to stare into while the girlboss extols the virtues of the new union for the umpteenth time.

I am thinking of making a thread about the games community on steam and reddit. Thoughts?

And they preferred spending time on that garbage scenario instead of making the game less shit. Imagine if it had more than like 3 types of ships, and even better, imagine if it had a proper modding support.

Could've become a classic engineering game, instead it's a leftoid shitpile that is entertaining for a few hours only.

The community discussions on steam are filled with sneeding and r-slurred trolling, a fave of mine: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1161580/discussions/0/4031347532800225058

It's just bad. None of it even makes sense. There's no reason for the new vegas factions to even be present in any of the storyline. They literally just exist because of nerdgasms over recognizing the thing they like.

I was there when that one neurodivergent valve youtuber did a Q&A stream with the developers and /v/ raided it and just spammed the QA with various sneed, baneposting, and other assorted 4chan memes while the host was completely oblivious.

I don't think I've laughed so hard at something on the internet since

might have to give this a rewatch myself and pick out some of the best moments for you guys

I would not allow any writers who had ever in their lives written any smut fiction.

The Crusaders are the Brotherhood of Steel but mormon. A lot of them are hot asian women because the mod developer had a type.

Tiberius Rancor is the villain, Legion spy, and obvious traitor.

America is a teenager you can make your little slave girl in the mod. I wrote a more Fallout-esque ending to that particular choice.

The frontier is an infamous mod for Fallout New Vegas. I just gave my elevator pitch for rewriting it into something not terrible.
