Alot of people have been making feedback threads lately, and I figured it’d be fun to have a self reflection thread! Look into the mirror and wince with cringe at the player who stares back!
So what kind of player are you? Are ya robust or not, a roleplayer, a graytider, nice and helpful or distant and aloof, that one moth who does viro perfectly but never talks, the cap who passed out in the bar 2 minutes in and has their ID yanked by the clown, someone who’s just interested in the mechanics or just likes to fin alternate power sources when the SM blows? Or maybe you play for the antag roles because you really enjoy bashing people over the head with a toolbox and maxcapping the brig, or always go miner for those sweet boss battles, whatever it is let us know!
Personally I like to play sec to help keep the station safe despite being unrobust (I try not to be shitsec as best I can) as well as play music and chat with people! I also enjoy playing curator and doing news broadcast about the station and it’s crew. I enjoy adventuring into maint as well as dressing up in different outfits (usually skirts or suits)! Lately I’ve been a musician and just played songs for people around the station.
Most of the time i just try to help around in my department as much as i can, i like jobs where i can chill and do my own thing like scientist but i guess i’m also a masochist at this point considering that i play medical despite saying multiple times how much i hate it.
I feel that i am really, really freaking unrobust and that anytime i do something kinda cool lag fucks me over. I need to tone down on the salt when i die or get brigged from bullshit.
I am an absolutely average, unremarkable run of the mill engie, a decent-ish doc, a good roboticist (altough being bad at that would take active effort imo), and while my sec robustness leaves a lot to be desired, i actively attempt not to be shitsec, with mixed results. I’ve let too many actual antags go by having too much faith in criminal scum.
I am physically unable to trust a clown or mime even when they are right.
Done alot of shit, i really like to maxcap since everyone shats their pants when it happens just like the server itself lol. Otherwise i will generally be a dick to sec because they are generally meta gruding cunts, i can also sometimes be a dick to random people, and i’m sorry for that sometimes the rush to get something done makes me throw out all basic human decency…
I think I am okay, and my player feedback post seems to mirror that idea. Occasionally I get called a shitter in game although I don’t really know why? If I am an assistant I tide a little bit, but just to get the things I need to be as effective of an assistant as possible. Engineers shouldn’t have to be bothered with things like HoP’s door being locked open, or an entire hallway of lights being broken, so I like to do those things. There should be a maint job that does that stuff. Janitors CAN fix lights, but its not like they can fix doors. They don’t have the insuls to multitool a dozen wires in a door to unlock it again.
tangent aside, I can understand WHY some people think I am a shitter, but I really do try my hardest not to be. I think its only like one or two people who think so, but I have no idea why. Occasionally if someone disagrees with me in dchat, they start spewing shit like that, and I do shrug most of it off, but I really dont want to give off that vibe. But I am prone to doing specific things for days at a time. Right now I am on a kick where I roll dice to decide my actions in relation to certain things. The last round I did that in, I rolled a 93 on the 100 sided die to assist the station in dealing with the heretics, so I installed cameras with xray all across maint. One time I rolled really low on “being alive” so I killed myself. I recently pissed off a magicarp because the dice and the 8 ball agreed that I should kill the mobs. I do my gimmicks, but when shit gets rough I drop them to actually assist the station. Maybe someone out there is just really sick of my gimmicks.
I lately became lizard hating lawyer shitposter, but generally I think most consider me as friendly and helpful. I have played a lot as MD and engineer and helped a lot of people. Also me hating lizards is from when l-word was allowed, so I could play as clown and scream l-word with the megaphone and noone would care.
I like mining and think I’m one of the better miners we have atm, though not the best. I also like making cool stuff on the station that others can also benefit from. Despite maining LRP I will not fight you unless you provoke me.
That’s about it. I don’t really have any enemies and I don’t think I’ve managed to consistently annoy anyone, which I believe is important.
