We will all ultimately get the same old forum members writing the same 'old stuphz' (Bottom Hat) the stalwarts that frequent this Forum are potentially and partly the contributors to the downturn, as Solid community members they may have actually been able to get through and had a viable impact on the direction and development of the game, But it's honestly at this stage not a blame game. It's just bloody sad.
If contributors like Obsidian, Kate, Yamiks (regardless of, off colour language) and many more etc. can't get through to them. Then what chance does the average Joe have?
I hope and pray that they turn the clock back a few years, Stop the grinding mentality (Jamesons crash site, Dav's hope, need I say more) to keep people in game for longer so they can post / announce play time to investors. They could've actually built on a great foundation.
A mile wide and 1" deep, I've heard many times.. it should've progressed as a mile wide then 2" deep then 3" etc. with a story, my god it was already there.
By now it would be a mile wide and 90' deep.
Shame on you Mr Braben you sold out. but I'm sure you are doing well for yourself and I for one am glad.
I don't feel my time in Elite was wasted as it filled a gap. Pre-Carriers and Odyssey, as I had no time for that mentality.
There was actually a post many moons ago from a lad who said things like pip pip and what what a lot stating "Death to Yamiks and the Queen" what was that all about.... He later corrected himself to only include Yamiks in that observation, it passed moderator appraisal? but my honest appraisal didn't (makes you wonder).
Oh well, I definitely had around £300 worth of fun while it lasted (to include paint jobs and DLC), I would've spent £600 or £1000 and more if it was worthwhile.
I Still Would.
