RSI Hermes is out!

[Vavrik]

Considering that a lot of our people seem to be attracted to Star Citizen because they played the original Wing Commander, or at least Freelancer, chances are that most of our crew are well past their teens.
Actually I am old enough to consider preparing a coffin that looks like one of them Cryopods. Just to rub it in the face of my heirs where all the money went that they won't get their greedy hands on.
Mua-ha-ha-ha..!

There's a lot that aren't too. Not many are here, most of them are just in in Discord.

also @Richard Bong ... and you know what's funny: I played Wing Commander back in the day, several versions, and also watched the movie when it was released and since. Most recently was last year. I loved it, but I don't remember a thing about them. I'd have to be promoted before I could recall the memory of anything that old.

The Hermes would be an excellent daily driver for all of us Jonny Quests out there.

Man, seeing something like that makes me feel young again.
Mostly because it makes YOU look way older than me.
Thanks for that ..

Simple.
Wing Commander, as a game series, chronicles the epic story of my Alter Ego Joshua "Howling Wolf" Mudjekeewis (*) as he and his trusty crew battle the evil Kilrathi to protect mankind and ultimately end a war that was forced onto us without any fault on mankind's part.
And then we eradicated the Kilrathi homeworld.
It was self-defence.
Probably.

PS: First time getting the option to name a character in a game. Obviously I'd overdo it...

The movie was obviously intended for a young audience but for what it is, it is quite good. I enjoyed it twice.

We were exploring movies that influenced Star Citizen last year in Discord. I mean right back to 1911 until pretty much current. It was a hellalota fun.

Well, watching the physics go haywire all the time it seems like CIG is still heavily influenced by the works of Georges Mélière.
