Loiosh posted:No drugs, no alcohol. As one person on the site I used to moderate described me: Boring No drugs, no alcohol *binges on spaceship jpgs* Just kidding, you're good for this thread. I'm glad you're still posting here and trying to evaluate SC against your own expectations. I imagine you'll tired of their "alpha" tech demo pretty quickly, but maybe they'll be able to keep leading you on with promises of drip fed updates and bug fixes. It all depends on your expectations I guess, if you see the game going in a direction that you like at a glacial pace, will you be satisfied?

Chalks posted:No drugs, no alcohol *binges on spaceship jpgs* I'll probably lose interest again and wander off. I like janky alphas, but for about 5 hours or so and then I go wander away until things are interesting again. With the exception of WoW's beta and World of Warships beta, I've never stuck long with early access because I don't want to burn out on what's there. In WoW's case there was so much new poo poo to experience it was... legitimately mind blowing. I had tried MMOs with UO (only tested, never bought) and EQ (played to level 13 in a week, then quit), but skipped everything else because it wasn't enough beyond EQ to really bring me in. WoW was the first time I got captured by both a world and by the tech and just sucked me in like nothing before or since. In World of Warships's case, it was just 'that thing' I did after work and exercise. Play for an hour or two, then get onto something else. I've been participating in SC like I did for KSP. I take a nibble whenever something is new, get interested for a few weeks, then do other stuff for months. That meshed well with the lack of deliveries over 2014/2015. I'll give it a more involved go tonight with my buddy and then see what he thinks, but after that, probably sit back until their next feature delivery (2.1? I think) while they sort a lot of the current janky poo poo out.

I should mention that the reason I gave up on EQ is that (at launch) mages would have to sit on the ground with their book open to recharge mana. They'd change that later on, but that single system pissed me off so much I just hosed off of EQ and MMOs for years.

I don't see the point of anyone trying to attack you over your anticipation (you seem reasonable about it) but I think you'll come to the same conclusion about the game soon enough. I hope anyways. This poo poo's not getting beyond the crappy janky stage as far as I can tell.

I think you're an arsehole or at best a deluded idiot who acts like an arsehole to avoid admitting they've been duped, but I don't want you to suffer and die an early undignified death. I hope for your sake that the rumours are true you are on a [properly supervised, sensible, sustainable, calorie resticted] diet, and that the livestream was a cheat day/unusual situation because it was a special occasion BEN LESNICK BEN LESNICK BEN LESNICK READ THIS READ THIS READ THIS Ben, I hope all of that stuff kraken posted too. But if you're not, here are some baby steps that will absolutely change your life, for the better, starting today. 1. Drink nothing but water, forever. (no vitamin sugar poo poo. no aspartame squirts. no diet chemicals. Water.) 2. Use your 45 minute (or whatever) lunch break to walk. (eat your lunch at your desk while you're working. Use your lunch break to just walk up and down the freaking street, or whatever.) That's it. Today, start this. It will be the beginning of a wonderful lifestyle change that you can add other healthy things to later on.

I am addicted to Doobie jpegs AMA I legit had a dream last night where I was aboard a star ship and for some reason just blurted out 'Shitizen' and Croberts himself was there and turned round eyefucking me while everyone else looked at me like I just said something overtly racist. The most concerning aspect of this is the only contact I have with the poop is this thread

With $100M In Crowdfunding, 'Star Citizen' May Not Be A Scam, But It Feels Like A Cult - Forbesquote:"It’s astonishing to see the rabid reaction of fans to any criticism the game endures. Anytime the work of the team or Roberts himself is questioned, a literal army descends on the author or poster to ensure they’re verbally beaten into submission."

We're not talking like, big daddy government here.

I don't get this thread's obsession with Loiosh. So he likes the game in it's current state: there are plenty of things that other people enjoy which I don't. And while he probably spent way more on it than I would deem reasonable, it doesn't seem like he's in financial distress from it (at least not on this thread; too  to check to make sure he doesn't have an e/n thread or anything). And unlike almost every other SC believer he doesn't ooze  or pretend to have an expertise he clearly doesn't have.tl;dr: LEAVE LOIOSH ALONE!
