Granted that whoever decides to run the private server has the equipment necessary to allow everyone to access it. and not lock it behind and absurd paywall
you're all forgetting the bottom line. STO has entered the stage in its mmo lifespan where its nothing more than a cash farm. If the devs really disagreed with it, then they would do something. they would strike or whistleblow. but the don't. so the devs are complicit. this is just the state of the game now. its all about…
uhh no. the problem is not people's budgets. Its companies using FOMO in order to price gouge digital assets for which there is no limit or scarcity. its predatory, and the devs are willing participants.
i agree. its almost like if they gave people advanced notice, they would be able to plan and budget and be more willing to spend money. but again, we need to realize that bundles and flash sales that only last 2 days, are aimed solely at whales. and if you're lucky enough these days as a normy, to just have $300 lying…
Why not demand better working conditions? Are you getting paid for every different hat you're wearing? If you're doing 16 different jobs, then your salary should reflect that. Or you know, you could bring up to your bosses that 1 person working 16 roles is absolutely ridiculous, and frankly unfair worker treatment. And…
I think we all just need to accept that STO is no longer about making and maintaining a great Star Trek game anymore. its about money. its about making as much as they can, and squeezing from whales as long as possible until they decide to shut down the server. that's all it is now.
its how you know the game is at end-of-life. The focus now is squarely on squeezing as much money out of the players as possible before they shut the game down. this is pretty much how all mmo's go out. We just have to wait for the "We're sorry to announce..." blog post.
i don't like that they removed old bundles to introduce this one. what is so wrong with giving players choice? like the bundle that offered the kelvin ships had no reason to go away. Using FOMO to manipulate consumers should be outlawed. if you can't sell your product based on its quality, merit or fair practices, then you…
My idea is to offer new ships as "Major Projects". Sort of like Fleet Projects, only instead of a bunch of people building fleet stuff, it would be a solo project, you "building" a T6 ship. And then when its done, you get the ship and you can start another if its available. now when its complete, you will have spent…
no interest in celebrities and rich people going to space, something us ordinary people will never be able to afford to do. not when the earth is burning, and people down here are suffering.
to be fair, the Netflix version of Sabrina is actually true to the comics, which were very dark. The comedy version from the 90's was a complete re-imagining because it had to be appropriate for kids, which the original source material was not.
not even worth it. but no, im not. Calling out hypocrisy and calling out others thinly veiled bigotry is not the same thing. but anyway, im not going to engage with you any further because i know exactly what i'll get, and i don't need that kind of energy.
i look forward to this person coming back tbh. I like their posts, and they balance out the other people here who think their feelings/opinions = facts. And yeah, its kind of on the rest of you to not respond and ignore this person. by engaging with them, you are equally responsible. we really need some adulting up in…
