Yeah, that butt-hurt snowflake was livid when Bree went through and deleted all his crap. Then he violated their rules - again - by commenting on the moderation.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:They don't care about shooting people in first person. They care about interacting with their autism chariot in first person. They care about flying around and playing the role of Malcolm Shepard as they fly their starship Millennium Beepop around the galaxy. The primary draw of Star Citizen isn't that it's a game, it's that it's supposed to be some kind of immersive experience. You're not playing a space sim, you're participating in a First Person Universe. Elite is a game that features tight mechanics and a coherent design philosophy that covers every aspect of player interaction. The priority is providing high quality gameplay. In contrast Star Citizen's priority is the narrative. In Elite your character is a sterile, unimportant participant who has no impact on the uncaring galaxy at all. Star Citizen markets itself as something more immersive and player-oriented, that's designed to compel the player to play for one more hour because of how good the story is.

I would absolutely go to CitCon or whatever, but I drat sure wouldn't fly to LA to do it. It'd be funny to walk around in some kind of very obvious beet signage and see who figured it out and/or was brave enough to say something. I imagine it wouldn't actually be too bad, lots of them seem to think I'm the reasonable one

thatguy posted:The vision wouldn't ever have been a reality anyway because the average gamer won't care about the dumb backstory you made for your dumb character and if you have something cool and there's a way to take it from you then it's going to be taken. Exactly. The narrative is largely irrelevant in multiplayer games. The people who care about that stuff are little better than the idiots who pretend to be Clanners in MWO and make everyone else wait while they do a ceremony, and they inevitably get pissed when someone else shows up and plays the game without following their dumb rules. The best stories don't come from someone pretending to be their Mary Sue space pilot, they come from emergent gameplay like the history of EVE. The people who are so arduously supporting this game in the hopes that it becomes their narrative utopia have ignored two indisputable facts: 1. CIG does not give a gently caress about their players, except as a means of extracting wealth. 2. The greatest source of wealth for CIG, should this shitshow ever see the light of day, will be new players who have no regard whatsoever for legacy players who expect things to be done a certain way. So assuming the game even does see the light of day it will be infested with assholes who don't care about how the game is "supposed" to be played. When the backers complain to CIG they'll be treated the same way CIG treats everyone else who they no longer consider a useful source of revenue.

thatguy posted:The Goon MWO lore was particularly funny because it revolved around roleplaying as giant sentient alien bird-people from a book that most people didn't consider canon. Someone like TBK or whoever still plays that game could probably explain the comedic nuances better than me though. (squawk)
