Deraldin Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Homeworld rerelease collector's edition will contain a 12-inch, light-up Mothership Looking at that takes me back... right around the time I was playing Homeworld, my parents also gave me a model Klingon battleship to build and paint. It's recursive nostalgia, I tell you. Dammit people! Now the collector's edition is going to be an extra $25 with an extra large crappy plastic statue that needs to be plugged in.

Drowsy Emperor Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I really want this but its going to be way too expensive for me with the shipping and customs. (more like 200$) Its just not worth it, even if its one of the best games I ever played. Funny how appealing collectors editions look until you find out that all the extra stuff does is take up space and collect dust.

Bryy Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I always thought Grey Delisle (Viconia, Jeanette) was the best voice actress in the video games world, but my respect for her just grew exponentially. She knows what proper humor is and that's a rare quality in a woman. Especially in such a hot woman with such a great talent. I don't think you understand what humor is. Making fun of domestic abuse is not humor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceVC Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 You switch broke on dead serious, huh. I know this is no surprise but I agree 100 % with Bryy, there are some topics around social justice that really aren't funny or shouldn't be considered humorous. Jokes about topics like rape and domestic abuse I fail to see how anyone can find them in anyway remotely funny What humour does around these topics is detract from the seriousness of the subject, I'm not saying that just because people laugh at rape jokes that makes then supportive of rape but it doesn't help with the societal problem of addressing the problem at every level "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Bryy Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 You switch broke on dead serious, huh. Black Humor is amazing. But jokes about very real and very harmful stuff is just not funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drowsy Emperor Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Black humor is about "very real and very harmful stuff" by its very nature. That's the definition. You're just drawing your own line and pronouncing whatever is on the other side as distasteful. That said, I'm not defending her - I haven't read anything she wrote so it may very well yet another sucky thing written on the internets.

melkathi Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 It always amazes me how 1) people on this forum let themselves get baited into arguments with the selfish-idiots-brigade, and 2) there are intelligent, smart posters who do not have certain people on their ignore list.

Well for me I don't like to ignore anyone because if I blocked everyone who had a different or dissenting view to me I would have very few people to debate with and often the discussions are interesting "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Drowsy Emperor Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 That's a shame, I just remembered it the other day and thought they were probably working on it. I did wonder how they were going to make the game work. To make a credible vampire/werewolf/mage game you'd need enormous urban environments because these creatures are rare and a huge system to generate NPC's to make the town come alive, along with everything else. To me it always sounded a bit like over-reaching from a company whose primary MMO has far less content. It was my opinion at the time (and it still is) that its beyond the cost effectiveness of current technology (if the game is to look any good).

Hurlshort Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 In regards to WoD being cancelled, I can't say I'm surprised. It was announced a lifetime ago, and there was never any real progress shown.
