I'm pretty sure if we had a rogues gallery of people in this thread, we could take the piss out of their appearances, but it wouldn't be nice.

Its fair enough to take the piss out of people of the things they say and do, but let's not have a go at people for how they look. (unless they dress up as bunny man!). I mean, really, its not that good we take the piss out of Ben for his size, although that depends on how much of it is self-induced and how much of it is a medical condition. Regardless of which it is, he clearly now has a serious medical condition and probably doesn't have long left to live.

Why would anyone want to explore boring procedural caves in a broke rear end piece of poo poo like SC when Deep Rock Galactic exists? This is the problem with trying to make your game do everything, none of the features are going to be particularly deep, innovative, distinct, or fun. Hmmmm, one game has a noticeable feel/style and lets my friends and I shoot hordes of bugs as a team of drunk space dwarves, the other has empty voids of nothing, bland milsperm graphics, and if I fire my gun at someone I'll noclip into the sun. Which one is more fun?

I know Kitchen Nightmares is reality TV and should not be taken as fact, but I love that garbage and one of the running themes to a lot of bad restaurants is bland food from having gargantuan menus. Oh yeah, we serve EVERYTHING but none of it is particularly good and our restaurant is right next to a bunch of places that serve much better versions of the same stuff for a similar price. Whhhhy are we going out of business??

Wasn't there some Hollywood pizzeria episode where the owner had designed a headache inducing complex menu using subpar ingredients and his dream™ was to sell frozen pizzas in supermarkets, despite his menu being completely unsuitable for that?
It's almost like... choosing CryEngine for a space MMO :D

So Star Ciziten can take at least another eight years.

Edit: 8 x 30 million = $240,000,000 more needed.

Some of the comments by people having spent a few hundred or thousand, are quite concerned. And others are 'no regrets'. Anexample how the same thing can look so different to different people.

Nope, it's just a Billy Mays beard.

His obsession with being anally penetrated with a girl's tentacles is also pretty normal, I say.

A lot of peoples' body shapes are practically predestined, and short of surgery like lapbands around the stomach or stomach stapling there are often fairly limited proven ways in dropping weight. With exercise and diet you can do a decent amount but for many people they'll still be overweight to some degree.

Ben, however, seems to court death by calories with his eating habits and that's entirely on him.

This is why lapbands/stomach stapling works. Otherwise the body has a genetically set level of metabolism/satiation that is very, very difficult to override.

The problem lies with the fact that no one knows what SC is supposed to be, aside from "sci fi" of some description, they each have their own view of what it is and it rarely aligns with anyone elses. Commandos are often confused of the differences between 'gameplay' and 'chore' and 'in game now' and 'maybe one day' so there's really no helping them at this point.

Its everything to everyone!

From second life in space to a PvP arena to a milsim to a PvE game with more to explore in a single crater than the whole of Skyrim.
