No offense to this story’s author, but I kind of just skipped the article and read along with the comic strip. I’m fairly certain I’ve read this in the past, it’s very good. It doesn’t really need the deconstruction, as with any good story, it stands on its own.

Yeah, but as long as the actally do ‘seek out new life and new civilizations’ as they tell the tired dick jokes, they are still one up and pretty much any other ‘serious’ sci fi show that is out there currently.

I agree and hope this gets discussed more--it’s not the jokes themselves, but the types of jokes. I’m not saying there couldn’t ever be a dick joke in there, but it should fit the situations and be used sparingly. I actually think that many of the non-slapstick jokes have worked quite well and like how they…

Hopefully you’ve read the other comments on here and know you aren’t alone. I too keep worring about the general response to this show, but apparently it’s getting very good viewer reviews, and hopefully the ratings will stay strong. No need to talk of cancellation yet...

IMO this show is a breath of fresh air in a world where a new Star Trek series, formerly a beacon of optimism and hope, launches with bridge officers attacking each other before kicking off an intergalactic war.

I’ll go one further and say that the initial 8 were already around 3-5 too many.

When I click the link it says $29.88. Am I missing something?

Right? Couldn’t they even set up some schedule where (depending on the pods capabilities) take turns being in the pod each night, but still being together each day, or take turns being together for a month and then in one the pod, one out for a month, and then still spend most of their time in love but still make it…

Same here. I live in mid Ohio and don’t ever need to wash my cars. Sometimes at the end of the snowy season they can look pretty bad, but after the first spring rain or two they’re backing to looking all but new—minus any kind of waxed mirror shine, of course.

I would argue that this defeats the purpose of this game/experiment...except I’ve played the game and sadly have to agree. I would have MUCH rather had a dozen planets that were crafted to be explored, maybe god forbid, with more than one biome on a planet, maybe some creatures of varying intelligence and behavior,…

I agree, except there isn’t even lots of planets and animals to discover. From what I can tell, there are 3 planets to discover and the rest will look like (minor) variations of those 3.

You may be right, but I would argue that you might be discussing a symptom of the bigger issue, which is—many (most?) people bought this game to explore worlds, not to run around collecting resources in a difficult survival sim. I know that that is not what I though I was buying. I honestly couldn’t care less if I HAD…

So, I fully admit that my expectations were high. I actually bought my PS4 for this game.

No it doesn’t really matter...except for the $60 bucks a whole bunch of people paid to a company under false assumptions. It really isn’t a big deal, and the company should probably just apoligize and give like $40 rebates to anyone that feels they should. But that’s not going to happen is it.

Yes, very well said. This is exactly what I told my wife. That what we got in the game is mostly what is in the trailer—a trailer from TWO years ago that any gamer would assume is only some juicy bits that have much more depth and development in the ACTUAL game delivered two years later. I really have no problem with…

Totally agree. Also, part of the entitlement is what a consumer expects in return for the price. This was not a $20-$30 download indy game. It was a full price, full package $60 game backed by Sony as a top-teir game.

Absolutely the same here. Especially for MLB games. I often have a second one recording in case the first gets boring, and then you can switch over.
