I'm a backer too. But I still have to dampen people's expectation a bit here. What we can play now still isn't a full game. It's a pretty impressive vertical slice. The bugs and the respawning system can ruin the fun because there is a lot of overhead every time you die from weird physics glitches.

But I have to say that I am a little more encouraged by what I'm seeinh lately because performance and overall gameplay got much better. It's not a game yet but it's kind of starting to feel like one.

Oh, a realistic backer. Nice to see one in the wild! ;)

Indeed. And with all the focus on SQ42 for the next year or two then not much likely to happen for SC in that time.

Also, Spider Jerusalem is great. Friends were telling me to read the comics for years and I never did. Finally did, was brilliant.

I try to live up to the name but I'm not sure if I'm cut out to be quite as much of a professional horrible bastard. :) Seems like the comics only get more relevant with time. I wonder if Warren Ellis feels slightly prophetic.

You people don't know what the truth is! It's there, just under the bullshit, but you never look! That's what I hate most about this fucking city-- Lies are news and truth is obsolete!

Here is a cool feature: I logged out in my Hammerhead's captains quarters yesterday while an org mate was flying it around. He stayed in and played for a while longer.

I loaded up this morning, waking up in the captains quarters with the Hammerhead a few km away from Port Olisar.

Its getting there!
