Recent "Inside Games" episode
The guys mentioned a few things that I don't think they fully understand, in fact... I am certain not many onlookers understand.
"Oh you have a reclaimer? You must be a big spender!"
No, not even. I have a stupid big mortgage but the ability to upgrade your ships in small increments over several years easily gets you there. I have a gaming budget, so if no game comes out during a certain month, I'll toss that $90 CAD toward something else. SC sometimes gets that because I spend so much time playing it and am liking it's direction.
Also having the ability to refund your ships at any time (for in store money at least) you can change your ships 1x a day. You have access to virtually every ship within a couple years if pledging is your thing. Additionally, you can score all those ships within that time frame in game by playing normally assuming there isn't a wipe. Bruce mentioned that the game wipes every 3 months... not sure where he got that info from though.
There are several other things that are a bit off the mark but that one was a big one that interested me.
Did anyone else watch it? What did you think?
