What is a 'viable species' if not one that has dramatically grown in population, has no real predators, has managed to live and establish itself in virtually all land ecosystems and that has shaped the world as it sees fit?
Brain size != Intelligence.
Such environmental changes were our own doing, so we've literally have made ourselves smarter if indeed the environment was the cause.
Thanks for your thoughts and the reply. I'd enjoy going into more depth on this and explaining my reasoning, but we're probably getting too far off topic for the thread.
#4 Slingshot around a planet
Though a one-year snapshot is interesting, it doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with EDO, or it may have only partial correlation.
fair enough but 1) we are not all the same people and 2) I think you are not understanding the complaints many have with the FPS part of the game.
So you see the game as Frontier's share prices?
For me is so obvious, that the last year FD releases, EDO and JWE2, were badly perceived by shareholders both for the bad clients reception AND that they show the technical critical limitations of the Cobra engine, viewing all the year procedure as a critical failure, that the lack of confidence in the future was fulfilled.
I have my issues with ED:O but that share price looks no worse than loads of other things, and significantly better than some of the stuff i have money in (I had money in Luna....... £280 down to 5p in 24 hrs).. The economy at the moment in general is in the toilet and i imagine companies assosciated with just entertainment are likley to feel it harder than companies who produce something of important utility.
Seeing as you brought it up, for the Eric Schwartz & Amiga fans.. funny thing is that I saw this before I was familiar with Portal. Played through both since though, great games!
And that's why you shouldn't invest in those volatile funds, during the lockdown, and still untill today, I've invested in other funds then entertainment, withdrew all my Frontier shares, and had some of the best years.
HOW DARE YOU, RUIN THE OP'S talking point with FACTS!!
if you like a game that much, and have over 4k hours in it...and cant justify a gaming PC to play it, which you can easily get a pre-built for about $900 to run it just fine, then you are just cheating yourself of some well deserved fun.
It was a more of quip than a blogpost prompt, but sure. At least it's out and can be improved.
It's not just the pc itself and I don't realy care about the costs, I'll have to make room for it too, my Xbox is in the living room hooked up on a big tv and a dolby atmos system, I play from my comfy recliner, my wife definitely wouldn't want a pc in the living room so there's that.
The first thing that I always check when assessing whether I will like a game or not is the publishing company's stock performance chart.
Before I came to these forums I wasn't aware that people did such a bizarre thing.
Only the ones dependent on share prices or steam charts, to bolster whatever point they are striving to make, surely?
I don't believe EDO's combat could ever be intended to attract the 'dedicated FPS' players, of any age, but it is fun to play in its own way, different, but not awful!
Nah, there's a fair few other categories of 'special' I've seen on this forum - not that I'm claiming to be any better - that make me wonder if there's some kind of subliminal messaging going on in the hyperspace tunnel that leads to obsessive behavior
