    Startopia patched was broken

    I love the all living fuck out of that game but damn it was frustrating to play

    Basically exactly like Evil Genius.


    Which is why I wish these studios had a crack at a sequel, or would at least stick around long enough to properly support their games.

    Evil Genius isn't broken if you download the unofficial patch

    Startopia is just way messed up

    I want to finish school at some point and then get a decent job doing something.

    Yeah, that's a real concrete plan.

    I'll probably end up staying home to raise the childrens when Rachel and I do have kids, though, I know that much.

    If I really had to put my finger on it, I'd love to do one of two things: run my own nightclub (lucrative, but draining) or get my ass back to the outdoors and become a wilderness guide (not as lucrative, but much less chance of alcoholism).

    The ironic part about the guide thing is that I'm ridiculously well qualified to do it, but I live in Dallas. Maybe moving to the Pacific Northwest would help me out with that one.

    That's just the recreation deck! Your station has like 6 or 7 if I remember correctly!

    Its fuckin' awesome.

    There's the "main" deck, which is for things like the hospital and industrial work and your docking bays and what-not, the rec deck for all of your entertainment needs and keeping your residents and staff happy, and then of course there is the terraforming section where your religious stuff goes on and you can grow crops and what not.

    I'm pretty sure it's just those three sections, but the myraid of things that you do there make the game just a blast.

    How did you "fill up" your station? I only ever opened 7-8 segments of each deck and that was it. Got really bummed out there was nothing substantial I could put in the other segments the complete the doughnut.

    Sort of. There is a "Love chamber" where you can hire these winged angelic creatures to sit in chairs and "give love" to denizens of your station who are depressed. It's not exactly rated PG-13, all they do is sort of hover over the chair and an aura surrounds the target, but in principle it is essentially prostitution.

    too bad the game came out ages ago and whatever cult community it had has long since evaporated.

    I still play the game unpatched. Working Slug Pods beat no profit from bars any day.

    So what other games like Startopia are there? Evil Genius was mentioned, Black and White too, sort of, and of course Dungeon Keeper. Any more?

    You're forgetting the microbrewer. Can't have a team without a half-crazed, ex-military microbrewer with a penchant for pirate shennaningans.

    Being a writer wouldn't be that bad either.
    Or a animator.
    Maybe a webbdesigner.
    Or I guess I got some experience with some manlier stuff like digging drainages.
