Have they employed more people, or are you just counting Ben as equivalent to about 100 fuckwits in both weight and mentality?

This is still, without exception, the most hilarious dumbshit thing a citizen has ever said. The idea that an actor, who will have a booking agent do all their negotiations, would work for free because some guy that hosed over one of their contemporaries worked with you once, years ago... It's like saying Pizza Hut gives away free Pizzas if you ask because they like making Pizzas.

It's loving insane.

I repeat, you guys need to be so obsessed about the game, and must stop doxxing people who like it immediately, or the people calling you out. Contrary to popular opinion it is not normal to spend months reading every single reddit post about the bad space game, especially when you dislike it so much.

I am not a mod so I can't issue a Mod Challenge, but that doesn't stop me from issuing you a User Challenge. I have an absolute gem of an idea for you commando. How about pulling your underwear over your head and then go run out into oncoming traffic and try to take a selfie so you can post it here.

in the UEE, they're so progressive that they allow their DI's to wear jewelry. also there's been no practical change of uniform in thousands of years and they've changed chemical treated digital camo for t-shirts bought in the boys section at wal-mart.

Cohh has always been way too lenient with Star Citizen. I don't think he follows the game much but at least one of his mods is a whale backer, which likely contributes to his views on the "game".

Did he play 2.5 or 2.6?

Elite: Dangerous is unique in the fact that the shitizens believe both that a) It's been in development for about 20 years, and b) It's just copying Star Citizen.

Dude is way too nice period. How the gently caress is he a streamer being that nice.

I have no idea, he made mention that the menu looked different and some rear end in a top hat in chat popped up with how he wasn't using the right subscription-based version so it would be different.

I just wanted someone to stream this lovely game to a wider audience than 30 people, 20 of whom are us and 10 are whales.

This game is worse than the OYUA in the fact the blue balls reach new heights that would gain the respect of even the most jaded Dom.

The holiday stream was hilarious but things are already going back to status quo. I need some new blood spilt or this thing to loving implode already

Elite actually started development in 1963.

Braben sacrificed 20 virgins (tbh not that hard to come by in the space game community) to Belial, and was cast back in time so he could cheat Christ Roberts out of his deserved glory as the saviour of PC gaming.

That's not the weirdest thing though. Now I'm not some conspiracy nut, but it's well known that the false prophet David also happens to be a crack shot with a rifle, and when he's drunk he's been known to reminisce about his time in Dallas... even though there's no record of him ever being there! Coincidence? Maybe...

To be fair, SC has alreay delivered the best mutliplayer space sim around, and its barely even developed. It unlikely they will ever live up to the hype, but whats theyve shown is already very impressive.
