I appreciate how angry Derek gets when you ask him what he called. It shows a real passion for whatever it is that's happening here.

Why The Long Dark Is Better Than Star Citizen

by Spooder-Mun, Grade 8

The Long Dark is a game where you run around Canada then die of hypothermia. There's a story mode with two of five planned episodes released, plus a sandbox survival mode which is the more interesting part of the game for most people. While this sounds familiar it is better than Star Citizen because Star Citizen just says it might one day have those things instead of actually having them. Instead of paying a bunch of actors to look bored in mocap suit they went for some stylized art that looks a bit weird but is still well done. You can choose to play as a male character, voiced by Commander Shepard from Mass Effect, or a female character, also voiced by Commander Shepard from Mass Effect. Mass Effect is a game series where you run around inside a spaceship sometimes, but usually when your spaceship explodes, something other than bad coding caused it to happen.

Here's your character status page:

There's also a few other stats to manage, like how much you're carrying (which affects how long you can sprint for), wear and tear on your weapons, tools, and clothing, etc. It looks a little on the grognard side at first but it's pretty straightforward, and most importantly, not a loving chore that detracts from the fun premise of the game. If you let Star Citizen fans design this game you'd probably have to manually manage your breathing, with a button for breathing in and a separate button for breathing out.

Things you can do in The Long Dark:

Look at Trees


Wait for Star Citizen to be playable


Read and post in threads about Star Citizen on internet forums

The biggest reason that The Long Dark is better than Star Citizen is that it exists and you can play it.

In conclusion, Canada is a land of contrasts.

Not happening apparently, Skaddon saw CIG's MtD and ran to the hills crying...

:laffo:

Trust me, what's dropping today is so horrific, that I have no idea how Shitizens are going to reconcile their feelings.

I particularly loved, and am looking forward to the brutal evisceration of Ortwin who was just asking for it with his Rule 11 bullshit, which he later put in a public filing which he didn't even need to do. All he did there was piss off the attorneys and set the stage for hostilities.

Oh, and we get to see the infamous Feb 27, 2012 waiver - all 3 pages of it, which prove beyond a doubt that not only did he not disclose that he had an interest in the venture, but also that he was double dealing the whole time. Which is pretty much in the realms of disbarment seeing as the infamous GLA which he negotiated for BOTH sides, is now in dispute.

For me, the hilarity is in FKSS accusing Skadden of hiding the GLA, when in fact they failed to include the highly explosion waiver in their own response. The Skadden response to that is one for the history books.

Other worthy topics include the decimation of the FKKS argument over the meaning of the word "exclusive", as well as their inference that SQ42 is part of SC, is not a separate game, but they are allowed to sell it separately.

As to the engine switching part? loving :laffo: Just wait.

Seriously, from what I hear, the response is absolutely horrific and it's highly unlikely that FKKS will even respond to it without triggering another time bomb that Skadden set for them in it. But knowing Ortwin, my guess is that he's going to respond, thus providing more lols and taking us right into the Feb 9th show-down.

They're hosed. Completely. There is NO way out, there is NO escape, and there is NO coming back from this lawsuit without writing Crytek a big loving check.
