An honestly medics are unnecessary on this mission. People either survive or die.

Excuse you I patched up a synthbody after an attack without tools so he could walk again. Pff, unnecessary medics my ass :P
Synthbody? When?
Morul got acided hard enough that he started melting and whoever pufferfish is fixed that somehow.

Eh, Xan values himself too highly to sacrifice himself or anything like that. I guess I'll just have to make some convincing arguments about how I've changed or some bullshit that people will believe. Start crying and stuff.

No, I mean the fact that it was Stacy's brain I accidentally ate and not someone else's was pure happenstance - I'd eaten brains before then, of Sods which don't really count, but civilians too. Stacy just happened to have seen the Star-Eater somehow.

Oh. Why'd they want to court martial Flint? He's the one actually nice, sorta sane guy on the ship.

Then again I'm viewing it from the perspective of character, not military efficiency.

@ paris worrying about post-mission-trial:
don't.
what is, is. you're trying to do what you think is right, and are you thinking of the team, the mission, etc. even if it doesn't work out, you're putting in the effort. Quite frankly I totally ignore council/tribunal/chain-of-command stuff. I just do what I think is appropriate, and that is that.
The command staff decided to just retcon out him having ever have been on the mission, because they really don't now how to deal with someone who has initiative in following orders and/or hates the guts of his commanding officer and isn't afraid to say so. There can't be a 'trial', since he's been on the ship the whole time.
Wait what? Wasn't this Auron?

What is happen

I feel kinda bad about that knight. I mean, killing random militia is alright but this is just sad.
Eh, what do we care about some humie's family? Ideally we'll be throwing billions of them into our war machine in the future, after all.

I meant while playing - doesn't matter if you're asexual if a god is puppeting your body after all - but I suppose that'll wait until later.

Agreed, rip in pizzas.

At least they removed it within days of launch, as opposed to blindly trucking ahead despite the backlash. That's an impressive turnaround for a games publisher, and I think they deserve credit for that.

I'll roughly repeat what I said in response to the announcement:

No. Do not praise them. This is how things are supposed to operate: when a company tries to bend you over a table, scream and shout and struggle until they release you. Once they have, don't turn around and apologize for fighting back while telling them how grateful you are that they let you go! Look the fuckers in the eyes and make sure they know that they can't pull things like that. The fact that they responded to massive negative backlash does not make them 'good', it makes them 'rational and reasonably intelligent', or as we gamers like to describe it, 'not EA'.

Look at all that hyperbole.

All I said was that it was impressive that they, you know, listened to feedback, something that a majority of companies (not just game developers and publishers) fail to do on a regular basis. I'm not apologizing for anything or thanking them for anything.
I do admit that's impressive by today's standards of listening to feedback, though.

Yeah, as FD said, they shouldn't get credit for fixing a fuckup, just a 'okay, you fixed it. Now don't do it again'.
This is assuming we're treating game companies like 3 year-olds, which I think is a reasonable policy to follow.

That's just to convince the boss to go start conquering our weaker neighbours if we have any - we need to start building up that orkish momentum after all. More importantly, we gotta involve ourselves in as much combat as possible in order to buff ourselves up enough that we can hank our boss and become the boss. Then we can become Warboss, and maybe a Warlord eventually if we can get off planet.
