WHEN WE DON'T KNOW WHO TO HATE, WE HATE OURSELVES.-SA USER NATION (AKA ME!)

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:

I just noticed in her resume that she's credited as "military pilot" in SQ42. Did we have this confirmed from somewhere else?

So, will she be our fellow student from the academy that we had some awkward crush on? Or is she the experienced pilot teaching us the ropes, through which our relationship develops into an awkward crush? Or is she our co-pilot, handling the ship while the plots forces us to the turrets or out in a hornet or whatever, slowly realizing our mutual awkward crush on each other?

So many possibilities my head is spinning

She will be your wingman/companion so even if by some miracle you can skip cutscenes you have to listen to sandi talk to you all the way through every level

The more of this thread I read the less likely I think that the game will ever actually release, but the more I want it to release because the more RAGE VS GOONS sentiment is building and if we've learned anything from Eve it's that everyone hating goons is the best environment to play in. I can't even imagine what flying my Jpeg around would be like if everyone legit hated us from years before the game even released.

Not just hated us, but engaged in rhetoric specifically designed to combat things we post on an internet comedy forum.

I'm sad dreaming about what could have been. :(

And for all you people doubting that SQ42 will be coming this year: I think you're wrong.

Squadron 42 isn't really a game, it's Sandi's big break. Think she'll allow Roberts to delay it indefinitely while she still has Hollywood ambitions?

No loving way. Gameplay be damned, those 10 hours' worth of cutscenes will be out before the year is done, willing to :toxx: for this

I hope you're right. 10 hours of quality Chris Roberts writing and Sandi's deer in the headlights "acting" wrapped around a rushed sub AC2.0 crashtastic mess would be the absolute pinnacle of hilarity.

that was the original pitch of Squadron 42, no save point just like dark souls but the gruesome part is that croberts will surely force you to watch his epic art called mocap because he wants you to believe he is an awesome movie producer/director.

since the spergs in SC really wants to have rape mechanics in SC then I hope CIG will create this one for immersion

Rapex product

The main danger with that idea is that it has a good chance to provoke an escalation of what started as a rape to "assault, attempted murder and possibly more rape at a later date". If the main feature of your product is "See, you can choose to be either raped or beaten to an inch of your life !" you need to rethink your approach.

I'm guessing it was during the recent indie roguelike revival. He probably noticed roguelike was a popular tag in Steam and thought it'd shift a few more jpegs.

Everything they do makes more sense if dismiss the idea they're making a game and just look at it from the perspective of selling more jpegs.
