Fortress Andreja sounds like it could be a banger of a location!

[@RichardBejtlich]

It would have spikes facing outward in all directions. 😆

[@catbertz]

I've been rocking Dark Universe Takeover for several days and it's been fun. I haven't looked for them on the board so far, just discovering them on the planet map as I do other things. The first one I discovered was crazy, as all the bad guys were fighting and getting wrecked by those giant acid spitting dinosaurs lol. It was chaotic af. The dinos killed all but two of the bad guys, so I decided to punch those guys to death in a fair fight. 🤪 It's a great addition and I can't wait to see what the mod dev adds on.

[@RichardBejtlich]

That's awesome! I haven't gone to a planet with creatures yet. That's my next step.

[@marconihimself]

One simple change for a POI mod would be to create a pool of caves in which you can find artifacts, instead of all of them being virtually the same. These new caves could even be dungeons of its own. There wouldnt be a need for tons of caves, just assign one different from the other for all caves that have artifacts, and keep andreja's cave as vanilla.

[@RichardBejtlich]

Agreed. I feel like caves are the next frontier. It would be like D&D.

[@Backbone420]

Hell yeah, I’ll be waiting for this one. Catch a smile out there. o7

[@RichardBejtlich]

It’s a big step forward. Just updated today too.

[@johniethompson8788]

Richard...my comment is that I'm glad you showed up in my feed. New sub. 👍

[@RichardBejtlich]

Thanks a lot!! Tell your friends too. 😆👏🙏

[@atticusgalt10]

I'm just happy this mod is possible.

[@RichardBejtlich]

💯💯💯

[@ardentdfender4116]

This mod was added to creations store yesterday. As I’m on PC and I downloaded it last night and it wasn’t there on the store before yesterday. This mod has more random variation of POI listed than anything I’ve seen before at 50. There is also 1-2 other mod in the creation store that are suppose to add even more variations to any dungeon type encounter. So that mod and thus one together could add even more variation to the encounter possibly. But that would have to be tested. However, at 50+ random variations, that is a lot of POI land based encounter maps.

[@RichardBejtlich]

It's just the beginning! 🔥

[@my0866]

It really does look amazing, can’t wait for the day a mod creator, fills a whole planet or even goes subterranean. Games not perfect but it is the best create your own character, 3rd person space exploration game I have ever played.😊

[@RichardBejtlich]

I like the idea of outposts underground!

[@IceBoNeZ]

"Fortress!" I'd love to see a fast travel mod that imitates Star Trek's 'Transporter Beam' tech, including the classic beam in/out particle lighting animations & sounds from the different series. Even having a Transporter Pad module in the ship, to transport (fast travel) to & from. Now that would be really cool! Unfortunately I will no longer be using any creations or mods, as I only 'just' managed to get my original formally corrupted save working again, so I'm definitely not in any hurry to go through all 'that' pain again! 😄 👍🏼 I now have a full ship walk through & take off of my fav ship build, so I will try to find a way to show you! Cheers for the awesome content! 👍🏼 🍻

[@RichardBejtlich]

Thanks for watching! I get the pain with mods. If you want to share your ship build without having to put it on KZbin, Pixeldrain is a temporary (4 month max I think?) free option.

[@IceBoNeZ]

@@RichardBejtlich Cheers, I'll look in to pixeldrain. 👍🏼 Would I just share a link to my uploads here in your channel, or would you prefer somewhere else..?

[@RichardBejtlich]

@@IceBoNeZeasiest is leaving a new comment, in any video, with a link. When you reply to an existing comment, it’s tougher for me to see it.

[@ovoj]

Ive had the same idea. I think it will be possible as some mods allow you to send your shop to space without you in it.

[@downix]

This mod is awesome!!

[@RichardBejtlich]

It is and only going to get better I think!

[@vincentgagnon8569]

Fortress. Looks great, i know i may ask for the moon but each new POI should have unique loot. Many POI have magazines so maybe a unique decoration would be enough.

[@RichardBejtlich]

Good comments. I think this is only the beginning!

[@510DeshawnPlays]

Whoaa downloading this tonight

[@RichardBejtlich]

It's fun but what's going on under the hood is what I want to see... 😆

[@shantyguy]

Starfield is a great game, but those normal Bethesda game loops feel a little bit weaker in it. A mod that adds more variants of POIs, deeper more interesting caves, and maybe a few more planetary biological/geological types would get me back in a heartbeat.

[@RichardBejtlich]

💯💯💯I think those are on the way.

[@willia451]

I'll think about it after Shattered Space drops and the dust clears. Who knows what that's gonna break? Until then the mods I use are quite simple and limited and only from verified creators in Creations. Just speaking for me only.

[@RichardBejtlich]

Makes sense. All of my recent play has been with a test character.

[@Starfield_Eclipse]

Fortress, I am going to be watching for this one to come to Xbox

[@RichardBejtlich]

It dropped right as I published this video! Enjoy on Xbox.

[@marconihimself]

Awesome stuff, Richard. I hope this one gets to Creations soon. Do you know if this is compatible with Desolation, if I load Desolation after it? Dont want to see human presence in the fringes.

[@RichardBejtlich]

TYVM! I think the mod author said it's NOT compatible with Desolation.

[@matthewwebster3143]

This is on creations i downloaded it last night

[@RichardBejtlich]

How do you like it?

[@matthewwebster3143]

@@RichardBejtlich really fun I'm on the look out for new POI mods so seeing this video today sort of confirmed I'm on the right track, keep up the great content 🎉

[@ZygmuntNadratowski]

Fortress!

[@RichardBejtlich]

TYVM for watching!

[@jimmyv1602]

Does this work alongside poi variations?

[@RichardBejtlich]

Yes I believe it does.

[@morrisonhulshof3224]

we need a mod that puts you far away from your target so you can drive and plan

[@RichardBejtlich]

That would be interesting.

[@yomamma4612]

how'd you get your harem?

[@RichardBejtlich]

The Gang's All Here mod. So much fun. Plus the Astrid mod. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e56Xdmmip9drqdU

[@guillerivero247]

Así que los "jugadores" dependen de mods que arreglen el "juego" para sentir que lo disfrutan, que hay algo interesante más allá de la planicie gris, algo por ahí, lo mismo de allí.. ?!? Épico

[@RichardBejtlich]

Epic 👏😆🔥
