Tbf, it cuts both ways. Ive been asked several times in this thread how much of my money I've been tricked out of by Star citizen, and when I answer, I get the feeling folk think Im lying considering how little it is.
You're not bragging about it.
I've not much ventured into the subscriptions and mtx. That SWtOR MMO I canceled after 6 months (which I quite enjoyed). And Warframe, which is F2P but I played so much that I frequently said "I need to compensate them for my time enoyed with Warframe." I never looked but I might have put in like 300 - 400 EUR in it. The monetisation model pulls it just out your wallet, but at least I dont regret it. I got a Saryn frame with a skirt and that replaces the vanilla construct around the hips. The skirt goes whoosh when parcouring and reveals the juiciest thighs and chunkiest hips in Warframe. Totally worth it.

Let's think about it for a few more seconds:
The game was supposed to be out over 7 years ago, has accrued a groundbreaking development budget in the meantime, and still hasn't got its player character to a shippable state.
Astounding...

Yeah looking forward to it as my ship list looks like a phone book with all the duplicates!It'll be fun after the wipe...at least that'll perhaps give me a reason to go back and play more regularly than I have of late
I'd happily help you get rid of thatAs requested... I can safely say that outside of this screenshot, my avatar will never again be seen lugging that piece of gold tat around ...ever.

That's a peachy after looking at your post history I hope that was sarcasm or else the projection is off the charts.Hello, Doctor, a person I know seems to have a creepy obsession with a video game. Like, they cannot help but constantly talk about it, even during discussions of other games. All signs point to their mind unhealthily fixating on it 24/7, despite warnings from others. Can you prescribe any treatments or medications that might help them? We'd like to improve their happiness and quality of life so that they may enjoy other games in peace
But I still don't get whenever I post something good about SC and mention ED or other games as comparisons that compels you to report them to the mods or moving into personal attacks instead of just discussing the subject, meanwhile you have no problem bringing ED and other games and comparisons when it pleases you:
Elite Dangerous: 4 million copies sold, plus 8 million free copies
Apparent refugees: 0.00004 million
Frontier be like:
I love that in Elite, Cyberpunk, RDR2 and NMS too
It goes on and on but I think we get the point by now and I just don't have that kind of time.
Your issue is not posters talking about other games but doing so in a way that puts SC in a good light. Can't have that, no no no as that hurts this safe space of everything SC bad.
Mole hit me up don't forget!

If you try the game during freefly, the pvp is not representative of how it is outside of freefly. During freefly, pvp is almost with no consequence because almost no regular player put bounties on other players, too much one shot players doing random stuff with no intent to play regularly. In fact a lot of regular players don't play during freefly. Outside of freefly, if you play like a jerk you get quickly some bounties on your head that calm you down. You even have guys loving killing jerk free of charge...
It's the females, I mean femurs, again. Bloody rib-stealers. And all of the fuss only to jiggle their hips so offensively. Every femur has to be hand-crafted from an existing player rib.
Lol, 4 out of the 6 posts you've quoted are replies after other people have brought up ED. Including one thread started by... you. Shockingly
Of the remaining two, one is a comparison using a spread of space games, not just fixated on ED. And the other is just a fun meme about bobbleheads, parodying the tribalism between the two games rather than seriously engaging in it.
It's all very clearly distinct from you endlessly shoehorning ED into this thread in 95% of the posts you make...
It's amazing how these people can extrapolate from "CIG is doing a thing" to "no one else has ever done the thing before and CIG is revolutionizing game development." Male AND female characters in a game!? CIG has invented animation retargeting!
How so?Translation: "StuartGT: stop posting Star Citizen videos, discussing many games, and answering questions with information - it's all spoiling my off-topic Sandra rants, can't you see i'm hurting here?!"
I'm not the one reporting posts to get them removed remember.
For someone so found of dishing out you sure have a hard time taking it.
Which, to surprise of nobody, seems a common trait of the "push everything sc bad" camp.
Oh the many times we were asure here that the company was disbanding. That only whales enjoyed the game due to sunk cost falacy. That the flight model is no clip. That performance was irrecoverable and the game impossible to play. There are no gameplay loops. No quality whatsoever in the game and lo and behold comes the wave of refugees exposing a completely different reality.
Understandably it's been a busy easy year for the "sc bad camp" as they have to rebuild the narrative. Which I have zero problem with, just don't try to shun out those who don't buy it.
This is such a nonsensical tangle of strawmen that it's hard to know where to begin.
Let's take this one for example: "That only whales enjoyed the game due to sunk cost falacy".
Who has ever said that here?
Like... ever?
People have said that whale purchases can constitute P2W. Sure. Or that those who've spent a lot of $$$ may engage in sunk cost fallacy thinking, overselling the alpha to themselves (and then to others). Sure. But those aren't even close to the same thing.
Those elements also seem to be as true to this day as they've ever been ¯\(ツ)/¯
As do claims that SC's performance is relatively bad, the gameplay loops regularly 'tier zero', and the overall quality beneath the pretty skin decidedly 'alpha'. Or that CIG's financial affairs are deeply suspect in various areas. (Sheer quantity of shell companies, dividends prior to official profits, etc etc). Y'know. The type of claims that are actually made here with regularity. (As opposed to the strange pastiche of the same which you've written above.)
So yes. Some spaceheads may think the flight model is pure 'no clip', to their tastes. I'll give you that.
It's an outrage. Somebody stop the internet...
Yes D. The minute you had your Damescene conversion, the entire world changed too. That is definitely how things work.
Also noticeably how solipsism works too, but that must just be coincidence.
I'm afraid Daniel, if you're going to keep shovelling out guff like the above, I'm personally going to keep rolling my eyes and blowing raspberries in your direction. Because you really do talk a pile of old nonsense...

Not sure if performance/bugs/stability/crashes etc are irrecoverable but they are indeed extremely bad. Quality is indeed terri bad. Especially bad when one considers this game has been in development for 10+ years and has spent nearly half a billion dollars from others in coding it. Would be great if for once you addressed that simple truth without having to resort to discuss ED in the SC thread for once?
As for the "wave", how many exactly is that? I mean, we have also found a great number of posts in reddit etc of people leaving SC and moving to ED, you can find them cited in older pages here too, so
. Which by the way is amazing: Abysmally shameful that players give up and leave a game even before it is actually released.Unless of course, what you call the "wave" is the few youtubers you often post here, which only demonstrate that there are more clicks to be had in SC, and that they are obviously interested in monetizing those. Streams about hilariously broken games that have world records in funding would also tend to get lots of attention. Plus there is also the "attention" that CIG prolly simply pays for in some form or another. I doubt that exemple is the only one.

Dear gods, trying to compare CR with some of the greats from history..... i know CR loves to do this, his ego is huge, but the faithful putting him on that pedestal is just insane. He made some good computer games a few decades ago. He failed his last major computer game project, he's failing the current project. He is not one of the greats of history.
That's nothing. Witness this guy's excitement at 'tortoise features'
I'm also not sure if this has ever been done before...
Is that the French Rexshilla?
