Another Silly ? Favorite Galaxy

Post by JeffBTX »

Sorry. Another "silly question" along the lines of "What is your favorite ship" and "what is your favorite OXP" and "what is your favorite way of preparing Trumble Steak".

If the question seems silly, don't answer it, or flame it, nuke it, shove it up your ship's exhaust pipe, I don't care.

:)

Just looking to see if there are meaningful observations.

After all of the native missions are done, and you have been in all of the galaxies, which is your favorite to cruise around and operate in, and why? (should probably leave OXP-specific reasons out though).

Tentatively I can see how one native mission might make Galaxy 4 a place to avoid (I dunno, I haven't experienced the mission yet, I have a vague notion of what happens).

Tentatively I can see how Galaxy 1 might be the best place to go back to, simply because it is the best-documented.

The best evil juice in the eight comes from Zaquesso, in Proximus (G5), so that’s the place to be.

I'm currently in Galaxy 5 just now, and I don't know if I'm imagining it but there seem to be more alien (i.e. non-human) worlds here. After an extended spell in Galaxy 4, it feels a lot more varied and interesting, species-wise and politically too.

I liked Galaxy 3. Probably because I spent a lot of time there.

Interesting observation about G5, Disembodied… if you ignore the various types of ‘humanoid’ (8 systems), there are 111 systems with ‘human colonials’ dwelling therein. So human colonial systems are in the minority in G5 (I might check the other charts later).

Government types seem to be evenly spread in G5, i.e. between 31 and 33 for all eight types.
