Is anyone else noticing that whenever you try to study for finals you realize you could be playing starfarer and do?

I also like how there are more people online during the week than during the weekend. We are a strange demographic us starfarers.

This game is too epic, I agree. I stopped playing other games almost completely, space games are just too epic, and this one is the best.

It's not stopped me playing other games, but it *does* make other top-down 2D space combat simulators seem a bit poor--for instance, I installed Space Rangers at the weekend because everyone told me it was a great game, and I uninstalled it about two hours later because the combat sections felt so awful compared to Starfarer. Same with more recent games in the genre like SPAZ!

Yeah I had to drop SPAZ for a while. I am enjoying it again. I still like the arcade-y combat in it. It's just satisfying on a different level.

Dammit, Starfarer runs poorly on my school laptop even on minimum res. I wanted to blow some stuff up in chemistry, perhaps
