That was a fun fucking read. Amazing.
Fair call. I only just got the community update so I hadn't seen it.

It's such a genuinely unhinged document. I was reading it after seeing some specific page numbers online and I wanted to see the original source. it's just a fucked view of the world.
Imagine celebrating the idea that you've had no personal growth or made no social progress in twenty years. And not that it needs to be pointed out but it's also bullshit because the right have been marching fast towards fascism.
This is accurate to my experience when I worked at the supermarket.
I know it's actually pronounced Wooster.
I was playing some Everspace 2 and while it sure is pretty and feels pretty good there was something lacking that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. I’m only 20 hours or so into it but I just felt like it wasn’t quite living up to my memories of Freelancer.
Now I last played Freelancer over 15 years ago so I was sure that I was just seeing this through a heavy mist of nostalgia, so I reinstalled the old game, installed the HD mod and a few other user made tweaks and loaded it up. The opening scenes were definitely nostalgic but once I started to fly missions properly again it became crystal clear, nope Freelancer still kicks the shit out of every other space game I’ve ever played since.
Elite Dangerous, Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, Everspace 2, Spacebourne 2, EVE Online, (edit adding more I’ve played here: Chorus, Star Citizen, No Mans Sky) they all have strengths but nothing feels as good as the grand daddy Freelancer.
90% of people now share just 7% of wealth growth an inversion of the norm in 1950 – 1960.
So long as you enjoyed all 6 minutes. A full album might offer more long term value.
