With everything SC will have and have to offer, did and again will silence all haters. Disappointed people will enjoy the game either way as they did with every game. But on other hand SC isnt 3 hour campaign or leveling up based MMO. SC will offer almost infinite gameplay with highly dynamic world.

CrazyLoon posted:But fine, every goddamn goon hyping it up so goddamn much, makes me think Witcher 3 can do no wrong, so I guess I'll get around to that next when I find time, though I'm also honestly preparing myself for disappointment given everything that's been said about it. Also given I STILL haven't finished Eternity or Tyranny, both of whom I like but just...can't get back to... I didn't like Witcher 3

Toops posted:It's ok Dogeh, I don't actually think you should hit yourself in the face with a dinner plate for liking Elite. Braben deserves to break even for his sprawling tone poem on crippling depression. I just did that quest and yeah the whole thing (plus that probably starts a new line, it says she's "Probably batting her eyes at the man at arms." who then straight up beats her to death for not reading him the letter, which at first seems like wtf but there is a whole huge conspiracy with DONT READ FOR FUCKS SAKE cleopatra and ptolemy and how the soliders and garrisons report information to them so far, I wouldn't say its like a loving cormac mccarthy book or anything, but the writing is decent and the plot is pretty loving good also you can find better legendary items than the store bought ones in the world by buying loot crates LOOT CRATES with in game gold (which they absolutely throw at you past level 10) or completing quests

Baxta posted:Yeah they need to flesh out itemization a lot. I personally don't like PVP that much so replayability is going to be non-existent for me unless they get their poo poo together with items. Yeah I hit like hour 5 and suddenly felt like I hit the bottom of the core experience. I know there are events and raid type deals, but the whole thing just feels paper thin to me, dunno why. I haven't finished the campaign, is it worth it you think?

He's going to follow. Loot crates for random clothes / armor / weapons / ammo / missiles / blade processors / modules / upgrades / everything except ships. $50 for package of 5 crates! Best deal!

So it seems these are the numbers of pioneers sold in the endquote:around 4000-4500 out of 5000 made available. Which means that, as this thread has often guessed, the number of whales is around 2000-3000. ![]() Even at $500 dollars a month per whale they're going to need a quite a bit more to make ends meet. I wonder if they'll dip into the Javelin piggy bank this month.

Surface detail defending US health care is the best thing since I watched people exiting the theatre at citizen con as they were too bored to listen to a bearded man about the language of Chinese space turtles. You know how breaking bad would have ended in Europe? With the dude getting his bloody cancer treatment in episode 2

Combat Theory posted:You know how breaking bad would have ended in Europe? With the dude getting his bloody cancer treatment in episode 2 ![]() SD: incentives for insurance companies (who pay to provide healthcare) are different than incentives for hospitals (who are paid to provide healthcare). though even your argument for hospitals is flawed, in the US hospitals actually provide a ton of unnecessary, excessive, wasteful and even ultimately harmful treatments, for which they then bill insurance companies, which is sometimes bad for patients and always bad for the system in general because it further incentivises insurers to deny care whenever possible to save money. Also, if a for profit hospital can keep you coming back by only partly treating a chronic condition, they'll make more money than if they cure you and send you on your way; I know this reads like a conspiracy theory about cancer cures and I don't think it's actually true in most cases because doctors actually give a poo poo, but for-profit healthcare and the pharma industry are basically terrible and that's definitely what makes the most business sense. Also crunch is terrible and should be illegal, if a company needs more man hours than it's staff can provide in a 48 hour week, they can hire more loving staff. At the very VERY least they should be legally bound to pay overtime and there should still be a legal cap on weekly work hours. Yes, even if workers are "passionate", taking advantage of the passion (misplaced or otherwise) of your workforce to extract more hours than you are paying them for is scummy and immoral at best.
