I'd be happy to do VA work for literally every character in the game lol. But that offer only stands if I get to voice all of them, I won't take a partial deal :colbert:

Also, while we're talking about streaming games that work, I think I'm gonna stream some Slime Rancher on Friday either before or after I suffer through Star Citizen some more. It's super fun and it like... actually works.

my impression was that non-japanese porn games usually work by getting a niche of deviants on the hook and then milking them by releasing content at a glacial pace

how about a hentai with anime dickgirls that cum pictures of spaceships?

You missed my last few posts, commando. They're a bit hard to miss because they're not missives, nor do I have a blog. But I am trying to contribute a little while I'm kept very busy at work.

Is it sinking in yet? Just how badly you've been deceived.

Derek is rolling out the dragon dildos references, that's how close we are to the end.

Got to pledge level @ �1,500: Be a Jameson. The last money was spent on merchandise.

CMDR Jameson was the name of the original Elite CMDR, so I tought it'd be a nifty E-peen for people to see "Fangrim Jameson" fly about the universe.

What's hosed up though is that the pledge level is borked. Anyone can make a "Jameson"-character, making this pledge level a joke.

None. Was an E:D backer though - in for about $2,200. Haven't played in over a year.

Would I get a refund in E:D if I could?: No.
Would I spend so many $$$ on a game again?: No ;o)

I played a bit of Wing Commander on my Amiga, didn't like it much, but it had Luke Skywalker in it, so why the hell not?

Been with SC since day one, more or less - they were competing in the early Kickstarter days. SInce I've been waiting for a new Elite since the late 80's, I saw SC as a direct competitor.

After the KS hubbub died, I kept following both. I know enough about computers and management to quickly realize that Christ Roberts' vision was a fata morgana. Noone could do what he promised, especially not with a non-custom engine.

So I read a lot, and one day I stubled into the Warlord on a forum. I remember him from the Usenet days, and I've been in love ever since.

Regarding goons: I HATE them!!!

They ruined EVE Online for me, wayyyyy back in the day (late 2005 I think) - about a couple years in, before the big corp wars really caught on. Had finally got a rare blueprint for my corp (a nifty miniing laaser, IIRC), and we were transporting it backto base, when Goons killed us for the lulz.

I rarely cry about it anymore, just wehn I'm lonely and drunk. Or drunk. Or lonely. Or awake... ;o)

TL;DR: No real story with CR, just fascinated bu the gullibility of people, and a morbid fascination of seeing this trainwreck happening in slow motion. Don't want it to fail as such, but when it does, I'm going to be here and say "Derek Smart was right!", and eat a fuckton of paarpcorn! ;o)

How the gently caress did you drop $2200 on ED? I spent �100 and got the 'all expansions forever' package.

In other million dollar sci-fi property shill news,

Disney rehashed the Super Star Destroyer and the AT-AT walker, and the Star Wars Explained dork hyped it up like the shill he is, "they're already breaking new ground!"

So loving embarassing. Even worse this guy has a Patreon, I doubt Disney is paying him for all this free advertising.

Well, I'm not pleased about the megacaliber 6 but naming the thing after the gun is pretty plausible so I can roll with that. New Super Star Destroyer is fine. None of it is near as bad as the stupid dragon star destroyer for admiral Thrawn. It's like a flagship with a lower back tattoo. I'd rather he be uncanonized.

My bad.

Wasn't $2,200 - was $2,800 *sigh*

All in all, it amounted to �2,200 which is about $2,800.

�1,500 for the pledge "Be a Jameson", the rest in supporting a novel and a crapton of merchandise.

I did get hundreds of hours of good times out of it though, so money's not completely wasted.

I wanted to support the game of my dreams, but it deviated too far from what I imagined, and ended up feeling too empty, grindy and shallow for my tastes.
