09:39 <LunchBot> You were caught playing KSP when you should have been launching the new SpaceX Rocket. You raise your baton. The glass kettle drums pound out the the overture. Your vision clouds with blood. You wipe it away and continue. The xylophonist's hair bursts into a violet flame, but he continues playing. He's either a consummate professional or very drunk indeed...

09:39 <LunchBot> New text is: You raise your baton. The glass kettle drums pound out the overture. Your vision clouds with blood. You wipe it away and continue.

09:45 <darsie> I had to reread this twice to find the the the.

09:46 <Judge_Deddly> lol

09:46 <darsie> :)

09:47 <Judge_Deddly> So the forum is apparently owned by Pricate Division LLC now.

12:38 <Judge_Deddly> Anyone play Xenonauts?

12:39 <Judge_Deddly> I see it's on a 75% off offer on gog and I'm considering getting it

12:39 <darsie> no

13:07 <Pinkbeast> _I_ wouldn't, I'd just install openxcom. Xenonauts isn't really trying to do anything new either.

13:14 <Judge_Deddly> Hmm.

13:23 <Judge_Deddly> You have to have your own copy of the original XCOM to play OpenXCOM

14:12 <Pinkbeast> Judge_Deddly: by a happy coincidence I do

14:13 <Judge_Deddly> Cool. I just went ahead and bought it, Pinkbeast

14:13 <Judge_Deddly> I didn't go for the original XCOM because it seems like it's more for enthusiasts of the original, and I only ever remember playing and hating the demo.

14:14 <Judge_Deddly> Xenonauts apparently has a better and more intuitive UI, from what I have read online. I don't want to have to study a manual to play a game.

14:15 <Althego> wouldnt be surprising, the original xcom is old

14:15 <Judge_Deddly> Having said that, if the game is good enough, studying to learn how to play it can work out well. See KSP.

14:16 <Pinkbeast> Well, I hope you like it too

14:45 <Judge_Deddly> I remember enjoying Scot Manley's series

15:07 <sandbox> I remember enjoying jefmajor's series on KSP... 12 years ago
