I’m assuming you’ve played it, but for others reading this: It’s more than just bonus content, the base game has been reworked to integrate the planets into the progression.
A Space Age playthrough is different than a base game playthrough basically from the get go.
Factorio addict and I can’t resist responding.
It’s absolutely worth it in my opinion. They have reworked multiple major systems in the game for QOL improvements (but most of those changes do not require the DLC). The progression has been reworked to fit in with the completely overhauled late game that revolves around traveling to different planets and managing logistics between them. So you’re not just getting bonus content.
I’m just dipping my toes into the new content but I think they did a phenomenal job of expanding on the base game without just adding another layer of complexity. I won’t go into detail in case you hate spoilers, but when I got to my first planet it was a similar feeling to the first time I played Factorio. It brought back that feeling of winging it and having to work out the best way to solve problems, which I hadn’t felt since my first couple playthroughs of the base game.
they ask Republicans to decide which issues are important
I love this. They are so reactionary and seem almost incapable of counter messaging. I say almost because they managed it once with the tarrifs are sales tax response.
bruh’s out here advocating for genocide
$554 a month at 5% growth is $440k after 30 years. So yeah not millions.
Why would I pay for news controlled by a billionaire? My tax money already goes towards CBC who are… probably better than WaPo.
I’m calling Israel a US military base.
Thanks in part to the US military base in the region known as Israel perhaps?
Pretty sure OP is asking why the US gov relentlessly supports the genocide, not maga morons.
Pointing out that the prequels have the slightest hint of an interesting story does not change that they are garbage movies. All you’ve done is summarize the plot in vague terms that are only slightly more vague than the movies themselves. They do not “explore how an opportunistic politician can subvert democracy to create a fascist dictatorship”, they barely even dip their toes in the attempt.
The prequels do not do an adequate job of establishing why the republic is vulnerable to being hijacked by a fascist dictator. They do not adequately establish how Palpatine is able to seize power. Germany was reeling from WW2 and was thus vulnerable to a charismatic dictator like Hitler. Hitler successfully used the hate and anger of german citiziens, caused by the very real suffering they were experiencing post WW1.
What the fuck happened in the prequels? There was a trade dispute, whatever that means, (it’s never explained in the slightest), and so Palpatine gets appointed supreme leader or something? No suffering of average people is asserted, no populist rhetoric that gains momentum because of real suffering. Just, there’s a war so we need a supreme leader and it has to be Palpatine.
The plot is completely nonsensical and I challenge you to outline Palpatines rise to power in detail. Every single character acts like a complete idiot and does nothing as Palpatine blatantly seizes power.
Not to mention the dog shit dialogue, stiff delivery, boring characters, racist caricatures, and blatant and obnoxious pandering to children.
The prequels are absolute awful movies in basically every way imaginable. Pretending they are some sort of intellectual piece of work just exposes you as an idiot or someone who hasn’t watched the movies since they were 8 years old.
Sorry to be a dick but those movies are seriously fucking bad and I have issues.
If that’s how you feel, ok. I’d love to hear your reasoning for why any of the prequels are better than FA.
I felt like it dragged a lot in seasons 3/4 but the ending was fantastic.
Yeah I understand Trump has a better chance of winning if less people vote for Harris. My point is that instead of blaming voters for not wanting to vote for dems people need to blame the dems for not being worth voting for.
Looool.
You’re right that the OT are just fun movies that are much less impressive than when they came out.
The prequels are hot steaming piles of shit in comparison though. Maybe you need to remove your rose tinted glasses?
We can’t be together, I’m a senator!
Tired and factually incorrect narrative. Grow a spine.
No they fucking don’t.
Fuck Israel too.
Yeah this is why I’ve never tried it. When I was still on reddit the way people talked about space age turned me off. It seemed like a massive time sink that was more about upping the logistics to the nth degree than about new mechanics.
I really like space age so far because of how differently I’ve had to play on the first planet I landed on.
