I've been playing it for years and I certainly hope it's never "finished". It gets massive updates every 3 months (quarterly), and even after it's officially 1.0 I hope it continues to get regular updates. The version is irrelevant to me at this point - it's fun, interesting, and unlike anything else out there, and it only gets better with each update. That's all I want out of the project.

It's taken nine years, but Daggerfall, the huge second Elder Scrolls game, now has fan-made remaster
Daggerfall remains, to this day, one of the best games ever made. I still have my original boxed copy, and several pre-patched CDs that Bethesda would mail out back in the day. I replay it a few times a year, because it's held up so well and there is nothing else that scratches the same itch.
I frequently wonder what Bethesda would be like today if Peterson, Lakshman, and Lefay had stayed at the company and Todd had been chased out, instead. Those three created The Elder Scrolls from scratch - lore, gameplay concepts, all of it. They had a TES Bible covering the story from Arena to Oblivion... and one by one, Todd excised all their influence from the franchise.
I miss the oppressive, grimdark atmosphere and lore, the complex world simulation, the unprecedented freedom, the unflinching maturity, and the epic, massive dungeon crawls.
I don't see anyone trying to make a game like that again, ever. Certainly not Todd Howard's Bethesda.
Admitting the genocide part out loud... and there will still be no consequences for Israel's bloodthirsty terrorist government.
I'm on Debian + GNOME right now, which works fine for me, but I plan on trying out Pop! OS in the next couple weeks. I've put off a long time because it's downstream of Ubuntu and I'm no longer a fan of Canonical's direction.
The big anti-cheat tools (BattleEye and EAC) are already compatible. The only remaining problems are a small number of developers that intentionally announced that they will be proactively blocking linux... like Bungie.
Now if Valve can just give us an up-to-date version of SteamOS for desktops...!
I am getting really tired of these right-wing dictatorships trying to play the "discrimination" card whenever their governments are criticized for their heinous actions.
...are they going to apply this rule to Nintendo or Sony...
They absolutely should. Closed ecosystems should be illegal. They are literally an intentional form of unethical, predatory trust.
Nah, BDSM is all about consent. I don't think he requested that consent before inflicting that amount of widespread pain.
Monstrous right wing imbecile is right wing monster, imbecile. Full story at 11.
Oooof. This one hit REALLY close to home.
Only about half of those vehicles are actually in the game right now, too.
The thing is, with only one exception that I can think of, everything can be acquired in-game. The only reason you'd buy one of these ship packages is to have immediate access to those specific types of gameplay and, eventually, free in-game insurance (which otherwise also uses in-game currency). Sometimes these things make sense for player Orgs, but I can't imagine any Org needing all vehicles at all times... especially at that price.
