I'm on a space liner. I can only afford Eta class. I order a Croberts on the rocks. I get a Sex on the Moon, quality 40%

I complain to the space steward, who screeches at me and runs off. I hear more noises from the back of the space liner.

Finally after a 20 argument with xXWeedInSpaceXx I have recieved my correct +2 perception drink. Quality 80 but that's fine. Eta class after all.

There are 14 more hours of "actual time" remaining on this flight. I want to die.

Later, the pilot steers into an asteroid and the ship is stranded. Our distress signal is answered by people who just keep yelling fofofofofofo at us.

I love you.

Come to think of it haven't goons already played out 99% of the SC jack off fantasies in Eve? I mean they:

Let a newbie direct a corporation for fun, then he wound up being good at it.

Blew up the first megaship while hammered and bored.

My favorite bit about this weird fanfic was the presumption that the NPC anti-slaving space fed authorities would be both nuanced and still credulous enough to look at a cargo hold full of people recently deceased all with the same "sudden vacuum exposure" cause of death and say "yup, no slaving here but we will have to cite you for transporting corpses without a licence."

Is there anyway short of just reading through the archived Eve thread that I can hear about the Goonfleet and its many adventures?. The idea that goons took on the mightiest non-goons in space and dumpstered them is so glee-inducing to me and i want to experience it anyway i can.

There is an actually well written history of player poo poo that went on in EVE that mostly ends with Goons causing mayhem.

Yeah lol, there is an extremely good chance that $200 ship isnt even in game yet. There was a chart that showed the relative sizes of the ships that had been sold at that point and as far as i know probably less than a quarter had even been rendered in game yet. Some were absolutely massive, probably bigger than the environments they've made playable so far and require a bigger crew than is even so far possible lmao.

When you think about it buying a ship is like buying forums swag, the ship doesn't exist and never will, but you are entitled to swing it as an online dick in the Star Citizen forums.

Or at least that's how SC chucklefucks use their game. If Croberts made a roleplaying IRC room they would be just as happy as if they actually got the game they paid for.

After reading through this thread in its entirety, I can now conclude that Star Citizen sounds like a larger-scope, 3D Space Station 13 that somehow ends up being less fun-sounding than the decades-old farting spaceman game with obtuse controls.

That will happen right after the water rights sale on the planet (only $299.99 for 10 square kilometers!). (Warning---These rights only raise the possibility of local space authorities coming to your rescued 50.000001% of the time).

A few months ago I decided to check out SS13 and there were plenty of people playing.

I wish it would get remade though tbh it's a bit too arcane. I can figure out dwarf fortress just fine but after several hours of trying to figure out what the gently caress I'm doing only to have some dude yell at me (so naturally I then make it my mission to just kill that dick) I still have no idea what's happening. I had fun though.
