Star Citizen Video Game

[Nirex]

Since I know a few here like star wars/star trek and things space.

 

Here's my take on Star Citizen (an open world scifi game that was crowdfunded years ago and still in 'development')

 

While there are bad things in the game that can be considered unchristian (ability to do drug runs, bounty missions, and mercenary missions) you can completely avoid them, that's the great thing about open world.

For the most part you can design your character, get a ship and fly around space (or like me get out of ship and try to fly around space before realizing you went too far and dying of lack of oxygen), quantum warp to planets, mine resources, etc.

 

Can be a time waster, but doesn't have to be. Just an interesting play if taken in moderation for scifi-fans.

The fact it gives you the option to not partake in the negative things is a real plus I thought.

Still in pre-alpha as they have giant goals of adding more exploration, star systems, and options to do in-game.

From You Tube video I see ..scenes associated with guns, shooting etc ...this type of game I would never play, way too violent for me. 

 

I am Planet Zoo type  peaceful and relaxing.

Ah yeah, that's the stuff I meant I avoid. Since it's open world I just opt for exploration. The guns are for others that try to militarize any game, but it's not the only thing the game has or even the point of the game.

 

It's main purpose is just a space scifi simulator.

I like open world games, you don't have to follow a story (it's not necessary to play violently).

Star Citizen is beautiful but requires a very good computer, also, it's not out yet (Armageddon could happen before lol).

In the mean time, Elite Dangerous and No man's Sky are nice space games.

I actually bought it this year play Star Citizen in its current alpha state and get quite a bit of enjoyment out of it. It's buggy of course, but they fix things as they go along. By 2022 they will have "full persistance". 

 

(I do admit, I'm a Bounty Hunter, lol. I view it as a fictional setting where humans have the right to punish the evil ones and a right to lethal self defence, in the manner of Israel you might say.), and so I often go about hunting down people who have broke laws (and they get sent to jail when you catch them, they don't die), I always find the game of cat & mouse is a thrill 😄. But my character (since I think in RP terms lol) doesn't take up illegal or criminal contracts. (Though even if someone did, I wouldn't take offense, since I could reason it's like "acting" a role, but that's just "my view" anyway, I know not all would have the same conscience decision).
