Octopode posted:That's a pretty extreme reaction for disagreeing with someone on the internet, to be honest. You should try to just not give a poo poo what anonymous strangers think, instead. But I do have to ask, Octopode-- because I really don't know-- do you have any misgivings about the funding model, selling high priced ships without limit to backers? Some find this entirely reasonable in a 'caveat emptor' sort of way-- others are disturbed by the potential downside risk and moral questions. I assume that you're unconvinced by claims about a toxic workplace culture and acts of financial fraud under the Roberts. But if you did encounter undeniable proof, do you think it would jaundice your view of CIG or the game? Would you see them as unrelated -- and support the game while ignoring the rest? Or would you become more critical of the team? No wrong answers - just was curious to see where you stand on those sorts of matters... G0RF fucked around with this message at 07:34 on Nov 28, 2015 |

Gorf, I want to say that I respect you as a person and that I empathize with your "this is wrong on a fundamental human: human interaction level" argument.

DreadLlama posted:gently caress you let's fight. Here's a free tip for all of you college era neo-teenagers: If you're torqued on adderall, you need to equalize with a downer. Beer is the best choice. If you hit up the cheap plastique liquors, you'll blast straight on through to boner ape phase, which doesn't end well for anyone. And don't even think about the harder stuff. You not ready. That's why we're having this little chat in the first place. Call the same guy you got your blue pills from, have him bring you a 6 pack of decent beer. Not light, but not IPA-ABV. Over the next couple hours, work the beer slowly. Put on something kind of mind-blowing. The Cosmos, Planet Earth, Porn of the Rule 34 variety.. doesn't matter. Then just ride it out until your jaw un-clenches.

Toops, do not dismiss my drug-inspired ramblings as representative of this community as a whole. To do so is disingenuous. A balanced perspective represents everyone who has an interest in this game. Not just the people who agree with you.

Star Citizen originally started as a demonstration that there was sufficient demand to justify creating a space sim. The original scope was around $20 million or so with whatever the backers not funding being taken care of by already lined up investors. Now shut the gently caress up about that stupid topic.

But I don't want to push my chips forward and go out and meet something I don't understand. A man would have to put his soul at hazard. He'd have to say, "OK. I'll be part of this 'verse. "

Don't ask me why, but that face denotes sarcasm in Twitchland. I was watching this same stream for a little bit and the game looks boring as gently caress. $96M apparently can't buy entertainment.

jaegerx posted:So how is working at cig? Oh it's pretty great, man. Living the dream, hahaha, so blessed to be a part of this. I mean, I get to spend every day in perpetual prototype (you ever seen groundhog day? Love that movie lol). Requirements change hourly, and we're always being screamed at by some lunatic skeleton witch, and Mr. Creosote from The Meaning of Life. But it pays the bills, ya know? We can't get out of the windows in our new office, and we don't actually have monitors bc they spent all the dough on backup mocap cameras, but we can still write our code on paper which is pretty cool and retro (lotta startups have been going "full paper" it's super-chill), and you should see the desks, they're top of the top shelf. Spared no expense. Every few days, a weird english-sounding guy waltzes through in an Obi-Wan costume, yells a lot about "immersion," and makes us scrap all our work and start over. When the bad man stops yelling and glides out, a hideous, twisted wraith with neck tattoos clomps in and repeats the last few things he said except in this hideous screech. It's kinda scary LOL! Then we crumple up our code and shoot it at the garbage almost like basketball, haha, it's one of my favorite perks. The pay is poo poo and there are no benefits but I always try to focus on the positive. At least I'm not one of those babies in Africa who are too weak to swat the flies off their eyeballs! #iamastarcitizen Toops fucked around with this message at 09:22 on Nov 28, 2015 |
