Most of hacking is done by mass effort with maybe a couple percent of people that aren't doing basic things to protect themselves being affected. That couple of percent is enough to keep the hackers flush. (So please, follow basic cybersecurity steps, people.)

The plain truth of the matter, though, is that if a hacker or group of hackers is targeting someone individually for reasons, that person is in real trouble.

This has been a PSA for everyone chasing fame and clout.

Agreed 100%, but to be fair I knew which way the wind was blowing with this game back before release when they made that horrible yaw change to keep pvp 'engaging'.

The whole legs thing would have been a nice to have, though. Not being able to just stand up out of my chair was immersion breaking. Once upon a time I jumped through a whole lotta hoops to get it working with my VR headset and NGL, I cried when I drove my rover on Mars. It was that gorgeous. What struck me most was physically looking over my shoulder and seeing the tires of it kicking up dirt and leaving that telltale track on a world where nobody had ever been.

Then I realized I could never leave a bootprint. I think the worst punch to the gut with the space legs thing was not being able to do VR with it afterward. Like...wtf, there's just a very clear disconnect between what direction the ED devs took the game versus what the players wanted.

That's so sad to me. From my POV being non-binary isn't aggressive. It's just that there are more important things to worry about than gender.

It really is that way! I've been telling myself it's time for another LE playthrough for a year now but I'll say it again. A modded playthrough is on my LIST! I love the Expanded Galaxy Mod with all my beating heart =)

There's really just a metric ton. I found this video that has a way to install a bunch at once, but just keep in mind there may be some other mod out there you'd like too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Eqg9fDClCM

I did but it's been a LONG minute. No insightful opinions, unfortunately, but it was fun for the time period, good story compared to the original Arena, which I also played.

The fact that people care enough to update the game and allow mods really speaks volumes here. Thanks for linking, I might just have to partake in some nostalgia =)
