All us blobby nerdlingers are jealous of Sandi's mid 50's metabolism that's been the best at metabolizing ever since she was a little girl, enabling her to eat anything she wants and maintain an emaciated figure. Also, copious amounts of amphetamines help. That bitch is spun the gently caress out constantly.

Guys, that was just a script one of Ben Lesnick, Developer's friends made to automatically grab screenshots when she was on the screen. No biggie. Just like the space door in CIG HQ is only some wood, paint and some old Sears garage door opener. Just like how SQ42 is gonna be out this year.

The mass though. If you somehow get caught unaware around a corner you are basically being hit by a small passenger car.

Bill Nye made an actual spacecraft and sent it into actual space cheaper and faster than Chris Roberts could make fake spacecraft you could play in fake space.

The scope of CIG's failure really does sink in when literal spacecraft and missions achieve their goals within the same budget. Even more so with Crobert's claims that $1 development dollar without a publisher is equivalent to $4. He's basically pissed away two AAA games and two tent-pole Hollywood movies with absolutely nothing to show for it. I guess I really don't understand game development.

Very excited to order my SC polo shirt. I'm sure it will ship promptly, have quality stitching, be sized properly, and not be covered in industrial ooze from a leaking shipper container.

Yeah, like the time I ordered those Nike ID sneaks. They came from China.

Yeah, and I ordered 9 1/2 Wides. What I got was something a 6 year old would be hard pressed to fit on. And the nearest Nike store is well over 4 hours away. So that was a great experience. Really. At least for the $150, couldn't you have made them clown shoes, Nike?

Worms and spiders aren't animals.

Why would you hunt birds in space, and for that matter why would the birds be in space? Shouldn't they be in an atmosphere where they could fly?

I would assume so, they are using that hilariously illegal TOS to try and bully people right now, but any actual sign of someone taking real legal action will probably make them grant it

That might not be the case forever though since the scale of getting a refund went from

Just Ask
to
Press them
to
Threaten Chargeback
to
Cite Laws / Actually Chargeback
to
Literally file for court proceedings

The next step is making you fight the customer service representatives in a Kumite tournament with glass wrapped fists for refunds

At least they didn't promise free and easy refunds if you were ever unhappy with the project or their financials if they were two years late. Because if they had done that what they are doing now would obviously be a really lovely thing to do! If, in the unlikely event, that ever happened it would be like they told the customers one thing to get their money, then immediately rescinded those promises the first time they became inconvenient.

Unfortunately one of their customer service reps was recently in a bicycle accident and broke his wrists so CIG is hiring some A-list martial artists to fight on their team. Good luck, GOONIES.
