PederP posted:Yes, that's also been my experience when visiting America. It's not that we don't love sugar in Denmark, why we even have glazed ham, but it's primarily something to be used extremely sparingly outside of confectionery and deserts. Our local turnip sugar pushers try their best to get us to use more sugar in cooking, but it hasn't really caught on (apart from sugary beverages and candy en masse). But the American love of sugar in actual proper food is very odd to me. It's less that 'Americans' love this crap so much as the industrial food companies that tend to monopolize the landscape love it and everything is full of something actually worse than sugar -high fructose corn syrup. It's from subsidized corn, and they stick it in loving everything because they are looking to offload this industrial byproduct and the folks running the food industry don't lose any sleep over how addictive and lovely it makes food. It's difficult and expensive to avoid, but can be done though if you look at a typical American you can see most have not figured out how. http://www.businessinsider.com/billions-in-tax-dollars-subsidize-the-junk-food-industry-2012-7 https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/how-corn-syrup-might-be-making-us-hungry-and-fat/

They could have at least thrown Michael Beihn a bone and scanned his face into their horrible melty face renderer so he could deliver the best line from a movie in 1986 himself https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuEo09C45Tk

That was the worst trailer I've seen for a game in a long time. Even Stalin vs Aliens was better, and that's saying a loving lot.

Its weird that Hamill got a facelift though. I guess its just taken so long for the military complex in Squadron 42 to get its poo poo together that even your videogame avatar will age.

new splash page. Focuses heavily on mocap and melted faces. In fact the picture of spaceships doing space things is the only image that isn't animated if you mouse over it, because there is in fact no gameplay. Also it would appear Gillian Anderson's agent wasn't able to get her out of her contract, based on how many times they mention her. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/squadron42

Scruffpuff posted:Tip for CIG: you don't have to steal every gameplay element, rename it, then deny knowing about it and claiming you invented it. Especially since everything you reinvent has been broken poo poo. There's no shame in just using what the real game developers are using. You might even squeak out something resembling a smartphone app one day. There is if you have to report to the Crobbler. Giving a complex system a pretentious-sounding name is a classic method of managing up. It's not merely a context-sensitive USE dialogue, it's the Inner Thought System(TM). Deliciously copyrightable, and when Chris says "why isn't the commando procedurally pressing every button on the cockpit keyboard like I told you to do? This isn't fidelitous enough! ", you tell him "that's coming in Inner Thought 2.0" and quietly send your CV to a few more recruiters.

Why yes, I am the pilot of this craft, watch me jump down 13 steps just to break my ankles. Do you like my ridiculous chest armour and cock-cup? I designed it myself. You'll notice that, as a pilot, I often find myself requiring body armour in tight, closed cockpits.

Dear Diary, I sassed the gently caress out of my flight engineer today. I told that rear end in a top hat that the flux capacitor was sticking and I couldn't reverse the inverted high-beam intensity frequency and he tells ME that I might be wrong? Fucker better get ready to suck my oval office if he gives me any more lip.

Wow they're really trying to pretend like this is a thing that will happen Notice that as you hover over the mocap session and the cutscene, they move, but the actual ship flying does not move

I've never seen this level of openness and in-your-face audacity in a scam before. 99% of everything they put out is promising ongoing game development and implying tons of behind-the-scenes progress, but lightly scratch the surface and you see that the ONLY thing CIG has made is the superficial illusory stuff. They just put the scam right there out in the open, in your face, with full confidence. "Yep, we're completely full of poo poo, give us more cash and we'll make more fake trailers for a game nobody knows how to build." And every day, it's working.

You can tell that the ign footage apart from the last shot was directed by the Robert's himself and not the German cinematic guy, everything is static, everything is shot reverse shot. I have high hopes for sq42, it's going to be The Room of FMV with the budget of Heavens Gate.

To all my reddit bros, I have supported this project immensely for the last Now, with all that said and done, I would like to know why the inner thoughts design and implementation within the player UI has been changed, and why does my character voice the inner thought as well? Shouldn't an inner thought not be voiced? I have also imagined myself playing as a female character, as most of you certainly have as well, so why is that trailer voiced by a male? Anyways I really love what we have been shown and I want you all to keep down what you're doing!

All jokes aside I'm officially upgrading CIG's efforts from an earnest attempt at matching Doom 3 to an earnest attempt to reach the level of quality found in Dead Space 2. Which is seven years of progress in just four years of effort.
