While and may share some similarities in terms of their tone and content, one player managed to make the connection even more authentic with an impressive ship build that evokes the terror of one of the most fearsome alien races in all of fiction. Bethesda's latest sci-fi RPG may feature a handful of alien creatures for players to battle but when it comes to intelligent life, 's take on the galaxy is somewhat lonely, especially when exploring the surface of a planet. Still, having no extraterrestrial factions is certainly more desirable than coming face-to-face with the Borg.
Shared to Reddit by user nathantravis2377, the fan showed off their ship designed to replicate the appearance of a terrifying Borg Cube, the vessel that transports the villains throughout the cosmos.
The creator notes that they used around 240 different modules to create the imposing vehicle, revealing that it's largely hollow to keep the overall mass low enough to fly. In terms of weaponry, while a Borg Cube is usually stuffed full of weapons, this ship only sports four Particle Beams, four Ballistic Auto Turrets, and four shield generators.
Despite the incredible size and scale of nathantravis2377's Borg Cube, the creator insists that it was actually a rather simple ship to design. While the shape is no doubt basic, actually fitting together all the necessary parts to make the vessel airborne without exceeding mass restrictions must have been an incredibly challenging task. How it fairs in combat remains unknown but one has to imagine that the amount of armor packed into every corner will ensure it's protected even in the most deadly of dogfights.
certainly has plenty of hostile alien forces for players to fight when they opt to settle down and establish an outpost but the addition of a hyper-intelligent force like the Borg would be a real game-changer. Unmatched in terms of their brutal efficiency and technology, the Borg are a race of cyborgs that travel through the galaxy collecting data and knowledge from every species in encounters, feeding it all into its hive mind through a process known as «assimilation.» Terrormorphs may be extremely scary when they're discovered infesting a planet, but they have nothing on the Borg.
While may have received mixed reviews at launch for its lackluster writing and gameplay, one aspect that pleased both players and critics was the ship editor. The in-depth nature of the system which includes hundreds of different modules and parts allows for some fantastic customization that's only really limited by the amount of resources needed to piece it all together. One can only hope that Bethesda leans into this aspect of the game in any upcoming updates to expand upon it even further.

While there may not be too many massive cities to explore in , one fan's idea to introduce more is turning heads in the community although not everyone seems to be too enthused with the idea. While players cruise around the galaxy and explore the thousands of largely barren planets on offer, 's story will undoubtedly drive them toward several major areas of human existence: New Atlantis, Akila City, Neon, and The Key. Outside of these locales, most of the other settlements are small hamlets constructed on planets that don't have an atmosphere that could sustain a society.
is already bursting with Easter eggs and references to popular culture but one fan's recent discovery may just be its sneakiest yet. Through players' adventures in Pelican Town, they'll be able to collect a plethora of decorations for their houses, including one particular cool item that takes the form of a lengthy fish tank that can be filled with various ornaments. Following the recent 1.6 Update, a new piece of fishy furniture can now be added to the aquarium that's no doubt a cheeky nod to the most iconic sea sponge of all time.
The 1.6 Update for introduced plenty of new features into the game and one of them, the bookseller, has just become even better thanks to the work of a talented fan. Appearing twice every season on random dates, the bookseller floats into Pelican Town and dishes out his wares to the farmer, who stands to gain some handy stat boosts if they purchase his guides. While there are already just under 35 different books that can be purchased, one player took it one step further by introducing even more to the merchant's stock.
It's not often that one gets to climb into a gigantic tank in , but one talented player managed to do just that by creating a powerful vehicle that serves as a homage to another classic video game series. Thanks to the incredible building mechanics available in the latest game, the community has spent thousands of collective hours pushing the system to its limits in an effort to create as many wonderful contraptions as possible. This build is one such instance of hours of effort paying off with a functional death machine.
After a couple of months of consistent updates for , ConcernedApe has released yet another patch that adjusts the game and while it may not be massive in terms of content, it should make a particular kind of farmer very happy. While the farming RPG may be nearly a decade old, it continues to be one of the best-supported video games in recent memory as its creator continues to listen to the community's feedback. The recent 1.6 Update was one of the biggest expansions to date, so it stands to reason that some bugs need to be squashed.
and may not have great deal in common but those fans who want to see the Forgotten Realms clash with Pelican Town are in luck because a new mod is aiming to accomplish just that. Over the last few months, it's difficult to think of two games that have dominated the industry more than and, thanks to the former receiving its 1.6 Update and the latter earning a plethora of awards for its impeccable writing and game design. Mixing them both sounds impossible, but that's not stopping some talented fans.
In a game as big as , it stands to reason that even some of the most obvious Easter eggs would remain hidden for month after release but thanks to one eagle-eyed fan, the latest discovery is a throwback to the classic era of video games. Bethesda is known for sneaking in plenty of fun references to other titles in its massive RPGs, and while some can be quite on the nose, most are subtle nods of recognition. is no different, but to really appreciate this new find, one must be familiar with some classic hardware.
Given the vocal nature of the community, it stands to reason that developer ConcernedApe has taken some cues from players over the years, and one fan has just discovered proof. Throughout its nearly decade-long lifespan, the fantastic farming RPG has been expanded upon with a wealth of new items and content for players to discover, and the latest 1.6 Update is no different. The Iridium Scythe, which was introduced in the latest major patch, is one such addition that was clearly based on an intuitive suggestion from a dedicated fan.
When it comes to challenging the Automatons in , the Devastators are no laughing matter, even when players are able to perform some impressive fancy footwork to avoid a magazine of high-impact rounds. In general, most Helldivers would prefer to simply destroy their opponent rather than engage in a dance of dodges, especially when the cost of failure could result in a painful casualty. However, there will always be those who want to push their limits and really stick it to the Automatons for their cruel and merciless onslaught across the galaxy.
In a game like that's already overflowing with secrets, one fan's discovery of a new, seemingly rare Easter egg is definitely cause for excitement. Over the course of the farming RPG's development, creator ConcernedApe has quietly added plenty of special details and features that only the most dedicated players have managed to unearth. While the animation of the developer's logo that occurs when it's clicked a few times during 's start-up is one of the more commonly-known secrets, a recent discovery suggests there's even more to unearth.
Making friends with the citizens of Pelican Town is one of the core pillars of but for those players who don't want to spend all that time researching who likes and dislikes what, an excellent new cheat sheet makes the process much simpler. While many guides have been created to help illustrate exactly what presents farmers should dish out to the villagers of the game, it can be especially painful navigating through them all at a moment's notice. Having essential information distilled down to a single page makes the process much easier and more straightforward.
While the Boost Packs in are no doubt a fun way to expand upon players' traversal skills, one fan took it upon themselves to create an even better version of the feature. Players are able to hone their skills with 's Boost Packs as they level up and add points to the skill but even at its highest level, the oxygen-guzzling equipment only allows users to fly up, making horizontal movement especially difficult and imprecise. Fortunately, those wanting to soar through the air like a bounty hunter are in luck thanks to a new mod.
