An interview with one of Elite Dangerous' most hated

I prefer the term "nietzschean ubermensch" but "jerk" will work, for the philosophically illiterate.

Zarek Null...

I'd like to thank everyone for their support. Your feedback has inspired me to aim for even greater heights. As a result, I have issued a public proposal to the SDC that I officially be made the proper successor to Harry Potter:

Ah, more shameless self promotion, not only did he link the article to reddit an hour ago, he linked it in the comments of his application post as well.
 
I'm going to be on ps4, so I doubt that I'll ever met Zarek, but having read the interview I think he has a point.
Even more so having read around on the forums a bit.
Combat logging is rubbish, take your death or go solo. But all the complaints about piracy basically come back to logging. Being an actual pirate, playing the role and being a larger than life character in the game is exactly what you should all be doing: don't just kill ships interact with them.
Actually it is what I was doing in the 80s, just with no one to talk to.
Okay you don't have to be a bad , but there should be bad asses iut there. We should all be winging up to go hunt him, or of course trying to volunteer.
There are so many people who complain that there is nothing to do except grind.
Yes there is, there's roleplay. This is how you do it. If I hadn't read this interview, I'd probably played as just new wandering round trying to make some cash.
Now I'm inspired.
I'm not going to play anything like your character Zarek, but I am going to play in character.

Why does he need a successor? You can't die in the game, and in real life he's in his late teens or early twenties apparently. You might be in for a long wait.
 
Ok, I'm just getting up and and drinking my first cup of coffee. A few thoughts occur to me now that I've had a day to all of the posts in this chain.

1-Punished Mobius is CMDR Mobius's alt account
2-the writer of the article is Zarek Null
3-Zarek Null's video "Never Take Candy From a Stranger" is actually really funny, and almost won me over to his cause. Not quite, but almost.
4-Goose4291 should get some kind of special prize for post #211 on this thread

1. No it isn't and I don't think either of us appreciate being associated with the other. (Copy Pasta) (I actually have nothing to do with the player group. By recruiting I meant for my own personal crew. People you can call in a fight and you know will come. Even if the noobs can't fly the pips still help. And they have fun. Since the name causes confusion I will clear it up. For games I have pretty much always used some variation of "Mobius" It used to be "Solidus" but since the Phantom Pain came out I felt compelled to change it to Punished. Both names are references to Imitations. Solidus and Venom/Punished are both in a way pretending to be something they are not though they truly believe themselves to be that person. They believe themselves to be the real "Big Boss" the real "Snake" So in that sense I believe myself to be the real Mobius when in reality I am just a meme.)

1.B And besides would I really grind for two Corvettes?

2. An interesting theory but No. They are indeed two different human beings.

3. Yes it is funny.

4. Yes he should receive a prize.

How can you speak with such authority about point 2...unless...you're the author of the article?!? I knew I smelled something fishy.

I actually am widely hated, and I am attacked relentlessly anywhere I go with a high population. And it's been that way for at least 6 months. I'm better known through my contributions to Reddit and YouTube, than through the forums, which I rarely visit. But now that I see how toxic the forums can be, I'll have to visit more often.

When youve had your account hacked and wiped, had your office email spammed with attacks and your wifes been harrassed over your actions in a computer game, then we can talk about how hated you are :D
 
This has to be the most interesting article I've ever read:


This daring journalist probes deep into the psyche of one of our galaxy's greatest criminal masterminds. And he ends up discovering a shocking truth:

...that the galaxy would be utterly void of purpose in the absence of our "most hated" commanders.

I've no idea who you are and probably never will, but fair play to you for rp'ing a psycho character. [smile]
