    I can agree with most of that and won't quibble about each issue we might disagree on. I'll just single out one issue I would challenge you on. I do not agree in any way that "There's no such thing as objectively measurable morality." That's a Post-Modernist belief that cannot withstand even...

    5e

    I am a long time fan of D&D, playing on and off since about 1980. Over the years I have taken an interest and kept an eye on the changes, and been skeptical about many of them. I was playing during the "satanic panic" which was much more real a thing than players these days ever admit. In the...

    I give up.

    I don't want to be seen as a defender nor an antagonist, but IMHO; the only things I can see wrong concern the lack of a sense of urgency. Virtually every job should be approached with a sense of urgency as a part of the work ethic, and when you answer supporters that it will be done when it is...

    Star Citizen Fatigue, featuring Richard Bong :D

    When this subject comes up I always recommend people read Skunkworks by Ben Rich. In it Ben details how his boss Kelly Johnson, at the famous Lockheed Martin group; managed to deliver the U2 spy plane, the SR-71 Blackbird and the F-117 all on time and under budget. It was in part that he sat...

    I give up.

    I think we can be certain it is defined. We can also be certain CIG is not going to tell us what the definition is until they reach it. Why would they? We paid them up front. To be sure though, they have defined "Beta" very carefully to pull in as many new players who won't stomach all the...

    The Witcher is a masterpiece

    I am greatly saddened to learn why Henry Cavill left. Horrible, terrible, shit on your shoes, #&^%$. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh0U98JHADo

    Do Over

    I think it depends what they intend to change. I think changes like the ballistics magazine nerf, range nerf and S5 weapon speed nerf were all supposed to be permanent. I really hope they change them back.

    Having second thoughts on the horrid mistakes in 3.14?

    I give up.

    I think it’s silly to say SC is a live released game. If we can say that, we can say anything. We were not invited to play a released game. We were invited to playtest.

    IAE 2952 mystery ship?

    Personally, the style reminds me of RSI—both the Perseus and the Polaris. Yes, I’m familiar with all the differences, but if RSI were going to build a utility ship with no need for huge strapped on engines, it might look like this. I’m betting RSI, maybe a new salvage ship for that game loop reveal?

    Return of the Dragon

    Critical Drinker is particularly sensitive to the political BS you’re talking about and admits he presumed from the trailer that the show would include such brain breaking bs. The main thesis of the vid above is that he was mistaken, and that the series is not heavy-handing “the message”, but is...

    X-Wing Supercut

    "Trench Run" sounds just right, though peeps who haven't seen the original would never guess what that is. I have to say, Peeps who haven't seen the footage at time index 0:56 would likewise never guess how epic that maneuver is. Flying on the deck makes radar lock hard, as the surface below...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    I do apologize if you thought something I said meant I don't respect your right to enjoy the show. That is and was not however, the topic of discussion. It isn't about you. I don't know what generation you are but try to understand if you're not elderly enough to appreciate what's being done...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    Again, that's all bullshit. Here again is the place this thread was derailed: Obviously I was not calling disagreement about the content of the above bullshit, neither your ability to enjoy it. What I said was that it is indeed BULLSHIT that you think people are complaining out of lack of...

    I give up.

    It's for this reason that I am constantly frustrated but not disappointed. When we all signed onto this project as supporters, it was because wwe were promised a game like no other. CIG has not yet failed to deliver on its promises. That can't happen until they go beta. If when they go beta...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    Hey, that's twice now you've misrepresented what I said. The first time was when you pretended I'm not open minded, and lack attention. That's bullshit. Now you're pretending I said it's bullshit that you enjoy it, and we all know I never said that either. What the fuck do I care you if you...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    I think you misunderstand all the complaints fans make when they object to changes in source material to suit a new audience. It's got nothing to do with thinking no one can do it better. Tolkien was a verbose "purple proser" whose writing was good but far from the best. One can argue that a...
