There is. More than one, actually. It's just none of them are called Star Citizen.

I checked back hoping to see a scathing DSmart article, but the saved blog spot seems to have disappeared. Did Legal eat the draft like a bad doggy?

Also I finally figured out the mind of DSmart. I have 3 kids, two of which are just starting school. When I ask them to do things they sometimes retort with the exact same things DSmart does. "Uh, because I don't WANT to." "You are not a developer kid, so you wouldn't understand." and so forth. Every response of his on the Steam forums follows this pattern. It's seriously like trying to have a conversation with a toddler that ignores every social construct we have developed over eons of humanity, except a toddler doesn't know better. Pretty hilarious stuff out of a 4 year old - not a 50 year old.

The best Final Fantasy game is the one you played first, the rest of them are garbage.

Except Final Fantasy 6. Which is the best one.

I played final fantasy 7 once and it was utter garbage after the first couple hours of a pretty cool premise. I never managed to finish.

FF14 owns though. It owns so much.

Nah. 9 is the best. The first I've played was 5 and the last was 1&2 on GBA.

E: FF14 is a good game if you like bad games and like anime, which is also bad.

Final Fantasy 4 has a giant dumb space whale and is therefore the closest one to Star Citizen.

The best FF game, mechanics-wise, is a tie between 9 (oldschool, perfected) and 12 (what all RPGs should move toward). The best FF game, story-wise, is none of them.

He claims he took it down because too many people were asking about it, but that it is still going through the process of being 'cleared by legal'.

They also have no idea how an economy works. 3 years in and they still haven't hired an economist to at least explain the basics to them.

Sit the gently caress down scrub, they don't need a loving economist, this isn't Eve we're talking about here, where players totally run that poo poo and they needed an actual economist to un-gently caress what players did to it!.

What the hell do ya think Chris brought Tony in on this for, cause he wrote loving banking software as a hobby in his retirement palace?

Then again, I did clock more than 550 days of playtime into FFXI. Loved the poo poo out of that game until they completely threw balance and challenge out the window to try and drive people to XIV before it was even released the first time.

I hate MMO RPGs. For me they are nothing but repetitive tedium and people calling you a human being. That's why I play League of Legends.

I basically agree, and only play them if I've got a small group of friends I can roll with while ignoring the rest of the players completely outside of market interactions. Thats how I played XI, its mostly how I play eve aside from being in the Imperium.

Used to have a small group I played team league with, but burned out on that poo poo a long time ago.

Yeah, it can be fun if you have enough friends willing to play. Most people I know are not willing to commit to anything more complicated than L4D or LoL.

Just one more turn. The game.

Of course watching Aerith get a navel piercing in FF7 has nothing on knowing that I was going to watch my treasured Colonel get popped by a Sectopod in XCOM because of a moments lapse in judgement.

I could have brought them all home.
I should have brought them all home.
I could break all the rules and scumsave, but then what am I even fighting for anymore. Can I ever go home? Can any of us go home!?
