It has to be real frustrating for people in his demographic to be using Twitter. Not being able to have a 30 page rant in one sitting must be annoying.

I was really hoping we'd at least get a good t6 science ship out of this Krenim nonsense. But no we two get more cruisers instead.

I thought by "depressing" you meant "video game depressing," like "I can't beat the last mission in the Cardassian front! Will someone group with me?" and not... that.

He posted his number to multiple women who never responded or acknowledged him in any way. Pretty standard pubbie tactic I'm sure, but seeing it play out off-game is terribly cringeworthy.

They should come with every ship.

What the gently caress did they do to the excelsior.

But yeah they started adding the "type 5" windows from the intrepid to the other new fed ships (andromeda, etc) and they look pretty nice so hey.

Well, you see when a mommy Odyssey and a daddy Vesta get really messed up on turpentine...and keep getting messed up on it during gestation...

No, seriously, ugly as poo poo. Thankfully we can use the normal models on it and get some neat windows and the type 6-7 skins at least.

That said, getting it because it's an Excelsior.
