Lol what a loving idiot.

No, no - you see, nothing in life can be predicted, previous patterns of behavior mean nothing, and extraordinarily obvious and undeniable evidence is all completely meaningless. In reality, everything has the same chances of happening, all things are a gamble, and you need to have disposable income and realize that spending it, no matter what you spend it on, is always an uncertainty and you have to be ready to lose that money.

What an embarrassing shitshow. They're designing and arting their butts off for something that has zero gameplay foundation. Throwing dreams at a wall and looking what doesn't get flushed down the space toilet.

I used to feel bad for the employees but these guys are complicit in the scam. They're selling lies to keep their jobs.

I purposely used a dead company for a planet name because that's how dead this game is.

There is nothing I want to be. There is nothing I want to do.
I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.
I wish all of this really was in a game that existed just so I could see goons drop nukes on mining plots that these idiots paid real money for.

He's selling this concept as if it's a real physical thing!

"Sit down, watch TV", "Having dinner wioth your friends", etc.

I guess the spergs are now rubbing themselves thinking about actually living in Star Citizen.

That's the key to the dream friend. Real life is hard and lovely. Star Citizen will be the thing that finally makes you happy.

I think I heard him say that you can buy land that comes with some sort of UEE 911 protection.

But if the UEE is busy eating donuts, better be armed.

Or you can just claim land with no UEE protection.
