It feels so good to be so bad.....at posting.

Turns out, using an engine that isn't complete dogshit and not blowing your scope out the arse means you can actually deliver on a game. Wow, gently caress me, had no idea.

Something bad is going to happen involving them when Star Citizen crashes as looking through posts it's clear they can legitimately not tell reality from what's happening in their head.

I'm sure it helps not having to redo everything a dozen times over because something is slightly off compared to the dream your thumb of a boss had last night.

WTFO refuses to play a game without a tutorial. Presumably that was never a problem with Star Citizen because since there is no gameplay you don't need to know how to do anything.

I'm surrounded by all these pieces of machinery that do things to keep me alive in space but some of them don't appear to be working. I don't know what to do and I keep tripping over all these packaged boxes of spare parts. Can't someone just tell me what to do? That's not helping honestly, none of this makes sense, what am I meant to do?

Hellion might be poo poo I dunno, not buying it as have too much to play already.

I do think the thread would be improved by a Hellion developer appearing here to post and tell us all about the tutorial because this poo poo is funny.

Star Citizen is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it's fidelity when you look out your window or when you watch youtube


One thing Star Citizen has going for it is that everything is so natural and self-explanatory. All of its zero gameplay options occur so organically. It's so instinctive they completely removed the tutorial.

This is a fact and they never sold themselves as anything else. Its supposed to be a multiplayer hard-ish sci-fi survival game set in space and thats what it is so far. Its just Rust or Conan Exiles in space.

They never told anybody they where doing a "Skill based MMORPG and a Movies and a FPS with RTS modules and hundreds of ships and planets you can walk on and capital ships needing 20 players to crew and pets and racing and moddable private server and sataball and customizable components you need a manual to read for and NPC AI and skins and FIDELITY !!!!!!"*



*Skins not available in game yet. May be available someday.

Just entirely coincidentally it's also a white supremacist rallying cry, as it's the eighth letter of the alphabet twice.

You know I think SC has nothing to fear from Hellion.
I haven't seen a mop or rail to lean on anywhere in the game.
And how are they meant to be a space game with no sand worms?!?
