Re: Page: 118
Anyone else cringe when he showed a still-strange and still-potentially hostile and technologically superior race exactly where Sol should be? Especially since Listel like Beryl were stated to have eidetic memories at some point, if I remember correctly He's on diplomatic mission. The whole point w...

Re: Page 117: I will demonstrate!
This is getting kinda ridiculous. Even is we assume it's something Loroi actually care about (because they don't look very religious), the worst thing that existence of humanity does, is to imply that Loroi were not first race of Soia-Liron, which as far I can tell, nobody but hardcore nationalists ...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)
First Beryl is all but "get away you hussy", and now, as far as I can tell, Talon is really pouty for not being allowed to touch Jardin. That's funny and interesting subtext, thought I don't think Arioch is going beyond some minor teasing and actually channelling Terrible Writing Advice by going for...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Nah. I think they ought to have at least one crewmember on entire ship that has set of skills that would effectively make her tailor.
How difficult it would be to quickly make something for him that would fit his frame? It's literally just "clothes like for Loroi male, but taller and sturdier"

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Well, religions with strong universalist or missionary traditions, will of course have very heated discussions. Whereas the lesser focus of spreading their lord's will, the less presence of alien will be of relevance to them. Take Yazidis for example. They do not proselytise, and pretty much never a...

He probably meant minor stuff like occasional clenching of teeth or fist. Involuntary muscle reactions that would betray inner tension.Arioch wrote:What sort of emotional display did you have in mind? I wouldn't expect veteran crew (human or Loroi) to burst into tears in the middle of a fight.

Re: Outsider in Stellaris.
Nice.
You might want to take a look at one of elves mods.
They often have ears, new clothes, new hairstyles.

Re: Outsider in Stellaris.
I plan on getting it, and odd are I'll do something like this, but I haven't gone in depth in reading prerelease stuff enough to understand all these mechanics ahead of time. Hell, as a paradox game I'm assuming I won't understand most of the mechanics even when I'm playing it. I've read all dev di...

Outsider in Stellaris.
I am very excited about incoming grand strategy game in SF setting called Stellaris. I cannot believe this question hadn't occur to me until now, but how, broadly speaking, one would implement space nations from Outsider in the game? There are plenty options for racial customisation, though unfortun...

Re: Page 111 discussion
There is always Supernormal stimulus. If applicable of course. What exactly makes Loroi females attracted to their males? In human females being attracted to men its very broadly confidence/physique/popularity (Yes, I summarised entire human sexuality in three words. Bear with me). And in Loroi? Eve...

Re: Page 112
It is odd how much effort Tempo appears to be putting in what should be simple "show him starmaps, but nothing intel-worthy" message. I think Alex noticed something odd too, and not just being unused to seeing other people use telepathy: Look at his expression in third panel.

Re: The Loroi are Evil!
I guess a neutral side strong enough would be able to secure their borders, and enforce their neutrality. Its just that no neutral power in the sector is strong enough to do so. Humanity might be able to pull it off for a while (fairly long one, in fact), because they are so remote, but joining futu...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
As long as there are incentives, usually economical, people from "core" world will emigrate for colonies. As long as colonies aren't established sorely for prestige, but, for example, new colony has some valuable resource thats so much cheaper to mine that it offsets cost of interstellar transport, ...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
It is precisely because humans are immune to main Loroi advantage (telepathy), humanity should ally with them. Neither side would be inclined to be gracious to their ally on principle for helping them win the war (there would be no need to, winner would be undisputed master of the sector), but with ...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
A sane German leadership might have been able to win the war, but a sane German leadership probably wouldn't have started the war in the first place, so that line of speculation only goes so far. That is good point, sane leadership would be less likely to start a war (at least at two fronts). But s...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
I shudder to think of how the war could have gone if someone competent was in command of the German military. Rommel? actually german commanders were very competent the problem was stretching their resources too far and a confusing set of rules about the german leadership. Yeah. Oberkommando Wehrma...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
I see. I haven't seen any research data on the subject, but I would surprised if that were true. The sadistic people I know of are delighted and encouraged, not deterred, by the tears of their victims. Well, psychopaths lack empathy, and Sadist enjoy suffering of others. So of course tears, which a...
