Because the universe is fucking huge, that's why. I'm sure there are plenty of civilizations out there that are not as advanced as us, probably a ton of them, but it's equally likely that there are way more advanced ones, too.

most of what you are talking about actually happened just before they went free to play or shortly after, meaning it was in development already

Have you guys seen what happened to STO after it went free to play?

I think it's a product of our enviroment, these days there is so much light pollution around cities and such that people just don't see the sky as it really is. I want to live somewhere where I can look up and see the milky way strewn across the sky with my naked eyes =(

I like this thinking aswell. The fact that we exist and we do these things, to me, says that there must be other planets out there with similar life behaving in a similar way. I'm sure there's fantastical, strange, downright bizzare life out there aswell, but we don't have any reason to think there's anything other…

I've been playing the beta for about 3 months now and have logged about 350 hours, it's not finished but it's still very playable and addictive

someone is actually working on an Eclipse remake, I think they're planning on including it in the official map list too with unique assets and such created for it

isn't directed panspermia just shifting the origin of life a step behind? the next question is 'how did the abiogenesis of the aliens happen, then?' it's definitely a fun thing to talk about and it's probably one of my favourite sci-fi tropes, though.

yes, exactly. full of fuck indeed.

you can barely tell it's even him.. why are they going to edit it out? so ridiculous.

Blasphemy.

5 million? fuck, where do I sign up? i'd risk it for 5mil.

I get anxiety too but it's never that bad, but a courage pill like this would be amazing..

I tried the demo of that. I never got the game.

yeah, I just can't in good conscience pay that amount of money for something that is essentially a glorified SD card. fuck sake sony.

i'll wait until there's more than 1 or 2 games worth playing, but thanks for the suggestion, I watched a review video and it looks cool

yeah, you're right about that too. I'm only level 40 on Nightmare right now and unless the challenge of fighting monsters all day in Inferno is really fun I think i'll probably just stop playing until an expansion comes out, because really there's nothing else to do. which is fine, because every game isn't supposed to…

ditto with the psp games, are they working on the vita yet?

is the 32gb one still not out in the UK? i've been waiting for a price drop and for that to come out before getting one

how about some good games that aren't just HD remakes or ports of things I have already bought on my PS3 and would have to buy again just to play on my vita?
