X4 - Foundations. I’ve played over a thousand hours of this game, and cursed it’s name through much of that gameplay. On the surface it’s a passable first-person space-flight simulator (in the loosest sense of the term) with combat, trading, and various missions. It also supports higher tier empire building and strategy, which I’ve found the most compelling, but that aspect is often at odds with it’s first-person nature. I grit my teeth every time I’ve had to interrupt the act of building out a new station or coordinate an assault on an enemy system in order to personally save a single transport ship from a pirate/Xenon/Kha’ak attack because no matter how good or how many NPC escorts I hire they are never adequate. And if you lose a ship, good luck figuring how which station or trade routes it was servicing. The one saving grace was the ability to pause the game in order to do things like designing a station or directing ships without the concern of being interrupted. Naturally, this drags out the game significantly.
Other major detractors are the clunky, thoroughly inadequate UI (yes, there are mods that help, but they never go far enough) and the laughably bad missions. However, I must stop myself here or I will end up writing a lengthy thesis on this game.
Suffice it to say, it’s a flawed, but oddly addictive game.
There are also no toilets yet on Mars either, so it’s probably just as well.
They’ve upped their funny
But then they find that by occupying that country their new home is no longer any better than their old home, so then they have to attack another country to find a better home.
Well that was a bit of an unexpected roller-coaster.
Besides some of the other good points brought up here, I’d like to say that it’s because communist countries typically were/are anti-religion, so it makes sense that religious leaders in capitalist countries would oppose any form of government that seeks to limit organized religion. So, they support capitalism because it’s the opposite of communism.
Good, but unnecessarily long video. There were some funny bits and good examples, but it dragged on and more or less devolved into a rant video.
The correct assertion that AI doesn’t really (currently) exist could have also been better explained. Good examples of why that is true were talked about, but not in service of reinforcing that statement. Instead, the assertion was used to punctuate the examples. So good examples and correct points, but it feels like the argument could have been better made.
They are either profoundly ignorant or a damned liar. In either case, it doesn’t make them look good.
If they made a documentary about the life of little Bobby’s brain worm, I might watch that. Provided, of course, that it’s also narrated by Woody Harrelson.
