just a bit of bored spitballing stopping at point:melk
for the umpth-time, BUT:
isnt melk a sore spot for ages now?
arent melk rewards mood after some 50 hours+?
isnt the hollow weekly chase afterwards stale
(but you still do them cause they’re there?!? )
so what would i do with him without turning into a servitor in the lowest bowels of the ship ?
well “someone” would get ptsd by the request, but given how easy and fast you swim in melk bucks, make him the distributor of weapons customizing parts for every and all chars across the board
scopes, magazines, foregrips, get a 40k canon-codex and spill out whats in there.
10k a pop, fees for switching and finally melk bucks could be spend again.
practical chances (the later of course in the distant future) could even be on the backburner, for me at least, if only we had something.
so yeah, mid-ish horse beating for make an already mod an actual game thing using an useless asset thats again already there.
i have too many bad memories of staying up just to maybe get a new blessing and grinding contracts like theres no tomorrow. im glad hes out of business.
i’ve had a lot less instances of people getting toxic in game over a deaths/melee or ranged kills and even a lot less speed runners since contracts are irrelevant.
melk was a cause of toxicity in game imo, good riddance.
it would be so funny if they write him going out of business and turning traitor
This would be incredible, but I’m afraid the 5th Chaos God - Tencent - requires that customizable weapon parts appear only in the premium store as part of various weapon skins.
you know, at this point i wouldnt even care.
last thing i spent melk bucks on as an “upgrade” must have been early 2024.
ONE other pickaxe 80/80/80/60
(which could have been that way in brunts for dockets but i couldn’t be arsed to kook cause i didnt wanna switch between 2 marks for testing)
was my latest “qol” purchase, saving me one click to switch.
anyone saw an atm machine on the mourningstar? i’ giving those little rear-crack-scratchers for free, ogryn got better asswhipe right now
at least DO SOMETHING fs with the carrot that lets us kill 1000 dreg/scab ad nausea for the last 2 years and the major part of it with useless habitorial soothing and zero useable items/rewards.
yes “we dont need to do them” but karking come on, someone asks you if you want extra cheese and bacon you gonna say no?
see, they got a free solution already there, not even as a “testing thing” / netz /doppelter boden "oooh we tried and it didnt … whatever.
nope let melk run his ramble for all eternity, standing vigil to yet another useless spot at the COMMUNITY hub.
almost as they want to corral us as fast as possible to the map pool.
like pamplona bull run but in vegas, shiny sheet every where but ruuuuuun nothing to see here.
caaareful, slippery slope towards “fisto” from new vegad
i used to fulfill his contracts as well as i could, back in the dark days of hadron’s brick factory, so i got his 1000 bonus each time.
this locked me into playing a certain character until his contract was done, even if i felt like playing something else.
always took kill x, pick up materials, never bothered with grims, or 6 missions without deaths, in pubs? oh no.
if i had the “1 mission without casualties” contract, i would do a sedition speedrun on sundays (and have some newbies join towards the end and manage to ledge themselves, lol).
way to add stress to weekends because of that guy’s dumb contracts.
a year ago i made a second zealot for playing with someone who wasn’t into high difficulties. the guy left and i thought i could use extra characters to farm more melk money and blessings, so i ended up with 2 zealots. tbh i’d keep #2 at lv 30 forever to troll people and give #1 all further progress, but it is what it is.
as for melk, i paid him a visit yesterday with all 5 characters, and he offered me some junk with max damage in the 60% range, while also mocking my zealot’s hygiene… parked my ogryn at his desk because he starts blowing his nose and scratching his sack at some point, that’s what melk gets for his trouble.
Sounds more like an Armory role for hidden Ogryn NPC
I think parts of the game just get to an end point similarly the penance lady is probably forgotten by some. If any thing there could be a banter option to dialog with NPCs around ship for nostalgia, repeating cinematics and new story line dialogs.
i mean, yeah brunts selling the hardware(via servitor in absense), still melk so far was the guy for the upgrades.
blessings etc.
with them being “useless” since the crafting revamp, i was thinking “upgrades” in a more tangible style.
hence the vouche for cosmetic weapon addons.
so far brunts been giving us the blue stuff with the odd 80/80/80/60 but what was then to be made from it relied on the blessings in your “knowledge-book”
anyways … add hookers to the mourningstar that charge melk bucks for all i care
story of my life.
i made a 5th vet then a zealot for powercycler 4 and thrust 4 respectively.
i dont want to see melk improved i want him to suffer like i did
