Let me see.
Alas, poor Lando!
I knew him, Lesnick, a fellow of infinite leaks, of most excellent fanboying.
He hath borne ship news on his back a thousand times, and now, how abhorred in my spaceship dreams it is!
My pledges rises at it.
Here hung those lips that I have been scammed by I know not how oft.
Where be your community posts now?
Your deflections of criticism?
Your tweets showing Chris' car?
Your empty stares at the camera that were wont to set the twitch chat on a roar?
Not one now to mock your own sales pitches?
Quite chapfallen?
Now get you to Sandi’s chamber and tell her, let her bring donuts iced with sugar an inch thick, to this favor she must come.

He uses the same avatar everywhere, and it's the same avatar that one of our IT guys uses for the chat system at work. I am super tempted to ask him about his opinions on spaceships.

It never fails

The poo poo these nerds get all worried about/think will be feasible features in the game is honestly pretty astounding. SC has metastasized beyond simply being an unfeasible pie-in-the-sky dream project for these guys and turned into a blank slate they can project all their 7th grade "wouldn't it be cool if a game did X" schoolyard fantasies onto. Like who the gently caress cares what god drat bed you immersion-yawn your way out of in your little immersion boat in immersion space. Nerds.

Hey everyone, remember when we were 3 months late on releasing a ship to the game that sold seven figures?

Well you aren't getting the Idris either. We were 3 months late last time to add "polish" to the starfarer and get everything perfect which I bet you will admit is not a complete, buggy, malfunctioning, ill-designed, rushed out, stationary and ultimately worthless mess.

Don't expect anything else either until it meets the "Expectations" of the game, the starfarer somehow being the best example of that

Don't forget to buy $200 worth of ships you loving idiots

Like I'm not an expert but it would seem to me that starting a miniature farm to help food banks would be like trying to help the poor by spelunking. Sure it could work but it doesn't seem entirely efficient.

Yeah, I gave it a shot back when AC was first launched, and it sucked. But CIG is just unethical enough to throw a bunch of stuff together and ship it, if for nothing else than to try to be able to claim that they'd fulfilled their Kickstarter obligations. Which, again, is what I think will happen if a government agency doesn't shut them down first.

The question is, how long will that take?

Sooner the better imo. I don't have any misgivings calling this thing a scam, and the sooner gullible people stop getting fleeced, the better.
