I’m in the camp that says: let the designers create the game in the image of their choosing. Criticism is fine but I am sooo done with the internet (especially Gamers) demanding how their Art-Entertainment be served to them.

at the time of my post, i dont think you’ve linked the proper verge article.  i think this is the one you want:

It is common in media to depict violence in real places. Movies do it all the time, many games as well, even your local news. 

Some are meant to die, forget the dream, and awaken under the morning sun. You’ll think it all a bad dream.

My main advice would be if you went full netrunner/hacker on your first run, go the opposite route this time, get a sandevistan and mantis blades or the mono-wire. The combat is a totally different experience, I love it! My first run as a male V I was a netrunning beast, I had RAM for days, I could quickhack anything…

Yes. I am now in my forties. When SC releases in all its glory, with full features, I will eat my words. With my dentures. Just before I croak. At 94.

Or ... we really are having fun. Hurts to think you might be wrong, huh?

Hey hey now. I’m just saying, it’s come a long way. Have a look:

While it’s hilarious it’s still in Alpha, they’re clearly very successful at delivering a space sim experience that rich people with expensive rigs are having fun throwing money at.

Silence racist clown. 

Don’t bother responding to him, dude is totally a racist asshole.

Please, by all means, highlight a better group of game journalists than Mike Fahey, Evan Narcisse, Jason Schreier, Maddy Myers, Cecilia D’Anastasio, Patrick Klepek, Gita Jackson. Name the site or the journalists. Go on, try your best.

It’s not just that. It’s a combination of factors. You should watch the Gamers Nexus video, he goes over a lot of it.

“...and can probably go back farther if you so bother.”

I’ve only been playing since Awakening, so I don’t have a lot of history with the franchise, but I kind of liked raising relationship ranks by actually interacting instead of just standing next to each other in battle.

However, the place seemed huge and I felt like I spent too much time running around, especially…

“Is it that hard to just scroll on by?”

You can watch the full video below; maybe you know some of this already, or maybe, like me, you knew almost none of it and it’s 42 minutes of really interesting stuff!
