I mean nice comments are nice I know but I think what's important is that you are happy with the picture in the end instead of always worrying about if people will comment on it
Just because no one said anything doesn't mean that they couldn't have seen it and appreciated it silently
Not everyone leaves comments on things, and they have their own reason for that. Sure a nice feedback is always great but not everyone will want to bother dissecting the picture just to say what they liked in it. They might just say they liked it and
that's it Even a simple 'cute!' or 'good job' is good, it shows that person cared enough to let you acknowledge that it appreciated what you made even if they don't want to/know how to put it in a longer sentence

I see why Hotline Miami is so popular. The action is fast, the tools at your disposal allow for a lot of creativity, and probably the most important part is that death isn't all that inconvenient. Not having to go to a loading screen to restart the level makes the transition so much faster and easier, so going in recklessly feels less like a risk and more like a puzzle, figuring out what you can get away with and what to look out for.
the atmosphere is insanely trippy, and I'm pretty sure the main character has multiple-personality disorder or something similar, but that's not a bad thing. The apartment music gets kind of annoying after a while though.

Maybe it's just nostalgia-goggles, but this still feels like one of the most fun strategy games I've ever played. The camera's a bit wonky, and the inability to adjust the sensitivity is frustrating, but it's a gripe you can compensate for, and the actual gameplay makes up for it.
Even if they don't actually do all that much for you, the ability to have your units take different formations is a feature I greatly appreciate, and one I imagine somebody's found a way to actually take advantage of.
Balance is definitely a bit spotty once the high-tier units come into play, but before that there's a nice mix of interplaying roles and counters going on where each unit has a clear purpose.

Specifically the XSMech (paired with XSMech variants mod), instant crafting, job offers (no need to do quests, just requisition your crew), food stacking, and Imperial weapons (requires the Tabula Rasa crafting mod to make the crafting station, if memory serves) mod packs.
There are also scads of race mods, though the only one that adds the most stuff (including planet-side settlements) would be the Avali mod pack (most up-to-date one would be listed as Avali Triage, as the original mod author no longer updates). You'd need a character creation booster-mod-thing to actually be able to use mod races, though. The xbawks mod, I believe, is the best quality one available.
Also, unless you can somehow find them off-site, then you'll need a Chucklefish forum account to download mods. The Steam Workshop page that a lot of people migrated to isn't always up to date, and mods are subject to disappearing one day and fucking up your save file. No.797162

There are mods that do the devs' jobs for them and fix perceived mechanical flaws (for instance, falling four blocks causing damage on a low-gravity planet), and removing the Spelunky-brand Invulnerable ghost that chases you while you try to gas up your ship.
Of course, people sometimes go to aquatic planets to get around having to go to moons because fluid dynamics are their own brand of fucked.

>By 1970 the USSR will have overtaken the capitalist countries economically, creating a new great depression in the west>The population explosion in India cannot be supported by agriculture. Scientists predict a massive famine by the years 1980, wiping out at least 1/3 of the countryI'm sure there were a lot of scientists supporting that.
What about all those peak oil predictions, 2000, 2008, 2012, all would be peak oil, and holy shit there would massive unemployment.
What about an inconvenient truth? By now we're supposed to have had massive floods in Europe, America and India.

I could not store such a prodigious amount of offal, nor could I rid myself of it easily, possessed as it was by unnameable things from outer spheres. When excavations beneath the manor broke through into an ancient network of aqueducts and tunnels, I knew I had found a solution to the problem of disposal.
The spasmodically squirming, braying, and snorting half-corpses were heaped each upon the other, until at least I was rid of them. The warrens had become a landfill of snout and hoof, gristle and bone - a mountainous, twitching mass of misshapen flesh, fusing itself together in the darkness.
