My wife got one of those little manscapped trimmer kits for some reason. The nose hair trimmer doesn't cut close enough; the beard trimmer, which is waterproof and has an induction charger, won't charge at all when even slightly damp, lasts about five minutes, and stopped charging after a half dozen uses. The ballsac lotion is ok though.

CIG make trimmers too?
 
The thing that gets me about that clip is the physics. Note that the ship is at an angle on the ground, so when he walks up the ramp and on to the ship it should be at an angle as he walks along, but that doesn't happen, as soon as he gets in the ship it suddenly changes so he is upright compared to the ship, and to all intents and purposes now walking at an angle compared to the planet surface. Obviously the ship physics takes over from the ground physics so there is no consistent physics in the game, each ship object has it's own physics, never been done before!

When it is that slight of an angle i dont really notice when playing. Now, fit that Cutlass was upside down on the ground, Im sure you can guess what happens when you go inside.

If the ship were in soft death and the gravity generator was off it would behave like you expect.
 
i might try it. i usually cant stand RPG stuff because i dont like fantasy for the most part. if im riding a donkey and there are elves and dwarfes im out.

For other story player single games, i got through maybe 30 minutes of RDR2 and Cyberpunk before i stopped. The only single player games I've gotten through are the first The Last of Us and some of the older GTA's. TLOU may be the only story type game that ive ever finished.

TLoU part 1 kinda sets the bar for story games, mainly because the gameplay was as good as the story :)

Hmm. I hadn't really sat and considered this point. Which game will outlast the others?

ED will survive for a few more years, it's still got a decent playerbase, a niche game that never had a huge playerbase at any point to begin with. Prediction: 2027.

Starfield will do a Fallout4/Skyrim. Be VERY VERY popular for, say, 5 years, and tail off but still have an active playerbase after that with mods etc. They won't be the space sim audience though. Based on skyim 12-15 years, Prediction: 2035.

I'll add NMS - it will continue for many years, perhaps 5-10 years before charging for something new. They made so much damn money they've been living off it the lies for years so far and actually turned it into a very good game, even if I don't personally enjoy it. Prediction: 2033.

And SC? A whale and his money etc (paraphrasing), so it won't end anytime soon. Or ... all of a sudden it will collapse in a flurry of legal action, backstabbing and financial accusations. 🤷‍♂️
That would make Elite and NMS lifespans around a very respectable 14 and 17 years respectively. And yet, I am pretty sure we will get people saying at those times “See? I told you it was dead”. 😄

Marvel at how this clip demonstrates the fantastical graphical fidelity of Star Citizen:


EDIT: Sorry, I'm being told that's just a random ship exploding.
You are wrong, I have been told that is a well timed and extremely cunning player railgun shot taking advantage of the depth and all around awesome pvp gameplay in SC.

Sorry about the babbling in the background, some Youtube vid i was listening to.

I continue to fail to see the difference, playfully speaking, between this video and the ED collection of an object in space via the cargo scoop.

* End result;
- You can get an object that is in space inside your ship.
* Process to achieve this;
- ED = 2 years of development (picking up objects with the cargo scoop is something that can be done in ED since 2014).
- SC = 10 years of development and still explode ships for no reason and you get random 30k all the time.

I'm bored of the "do it all manually" or "inventory and physicalized cargo" nonsense... it's nonsense that is causing development to be 10 years and not 2, and still everything explodes, is full of bugs and crashes, and goes horribly. Playably it adds hardly anything, but SC players think it's something worthwhile....

Anotherone who just wants Freelancer 2 and can't stop winging about it.

Why does SltEMike still play this? At this point i think its just about trying to make as much youtube money as possible.

He's so angry his forced laughter makes him look deranged.

Mike constantly runs hot and cold on the project.

However, for older backers, who were promised a modern Freelancer remake and still don't have it, their frustration is understandable.

There again, CR announced he would make Freelancer in a couple of years in 1999 and after failing to deliver was bought out by MS in order to get the game in a releasable state, and it still took them 2 years to get something ready that was way less in scope than what CR promised.

So basically anyone who believes CR when he says he will deliver something is just asking to be duped.

The biggest problem with Star Citizen is Squdron404. That's what its all about, Star Citizen gets the left overs.

I made the point, and i made a thread on spectrum to make this point, we are paying money for ships that are not usable in Squdron404, they are for Star Citizen, most of the money we pay from those Star Citizen ships actually goes to Squadron404 development.
Its a missappropriation of funds.
I also made the point that Squdron404 had been under development for ###### donkeys years and was likely to be under development for as long more as it already had. If it ever comes out.
So to make us wait for Squadron404 to be done before Star Citizen gets the focus it needs while also paying for Star Citizen and those funds being missappropriated for Squdron404 is really cynical on CIG's part.

SaltEMike argued with people on his channel that all that ^^^^ was a good idea, and that people who disagreed with him are stupid.

Can you guess why he took that stance? Becuae he thinks Squdron404 is Freelancer 2, he is advocating his own bias, a sunken cost fallacy, he ###### deluded himself that if all the resources were redirected to Squdron404 he would get his Freelancer 2 and #### Star Citizen and those who pay for it.

He is the absolute worst, in every sense of every context, of the people he points his schizophrenic fingers at, and now he's realised he's been a ##### idiot, he isn't going to get his Freelancer 2 because i was right, so now all he does is pee and moan that Star Citizen isn't Freelancer 2 and call people stupid for behaving in exactly the way he does.
