Honestly I'm a firm believer in mentorships and other type programs. I wish I had someone who would have filled my head with some knawwwledge so I wouldn't have had to bumble my way into it. Or at least helped guide me a bit. Instead what I got was the same people reinforcing the same poo poo behaviors. Nerds who barely gently caress aren't going to help a nerd with feeling of loneliness and adequately explain why they aren't loving. You need someone aspirational (someone who fucks) calmly explain to them why their entitlement isn't sexy and nobody is entitled to gently caress you.

I mean that culture has kind of passed and nice guy thing is thoroughly in the culture now. But back than I was pretty pretty lost and the advice my friends offered me 'be yourself and someone will find you' wasn't exactly helping my loneliness.

Let me ask you a simple question...how many regrets do you have in your life?

I really like how Lando has to ask a backer's question, get an answer, and then correct the answer he's given because it might instill unrealistic expectations with viewers.

That my NPC girlfriend to be (who is hotter than any women alive, smarter than the greatest minds of our time, but for some reason is totally into me and totally turned on by stereotypical misogynistic actions on my part) will be ended before I can procure my simwank pod that will allow me to completely enter the game as promised by Roberts!

The Kilrathi have always been a furry knockoff of Klingons, because Chris can't do anything original.

And yeah, the whole "noble savages who have worked out interstellar FTL travel" thing is a bit far fetched.

At least with the Klingons, they were a slave race that revolved, murdered the gently caress out of their former masters, and stole everything that was left behind when they fled.

They didn't figure anything out, they just stole it. They even stole cloaking tech and ship designs from the Romulans.

(Totally not because props budget back then was hilariously small, and lore was not even something they considered when repainting ship models.)

To any normal person, development hell would rhyme with undefinite release dates, delays, developers coming in/out all the time, switching engines, putting outsourced work to the trashbin or reworking stuff constantly.

.. but I guess none of that applies to Star Citizen, doesn't ring a bell at all, no, no, no.

They started it with their French Fries and Dressing. I'll give them a pass for kissing, however.


Hobold posted:

There was a technology transfer between the Klingon empire and the Romulans to swap warp drives and cloaking devices (Treaty of Smarba) which gave rise to the KR refits before the Romulans became space-faring proper. Romulan ship designs wouldn't really take off until the sparrowhawk and relied on a bunch of old D7s when the Klingon empire brought the first D6s online.

edit: You're right about the 'Old Kings', though.

At no point does it dawn on him how insane this is, large npc crews with near human intelligence manning various stations requiring constant input, being managed as real departments in a company. I just, wow.
