Stupid game
Feb. 14th, 2005 09:05 amOK, well, Monday again.
Not so bad today. Half term means clear roads and empty car parks.
Saturday
ehrine made me play EVE. I'm rather afraid that I'm going to have to kill him for that. Repeatedly. Well, once I've got my skills up and bought a titan.
(dammnit).
Think elite, with all the good bits from the later versions (missions, mining etc.) a few more things besides, a little less joystick, a little more point and click, and multiplayer online.
With skills. That train in real time, rather than game time. Which does mean I'm going to have to log on at about lunchtime to set a new skill training. The good news is that it does (just) work over VNC, so I can :)

If it doesn't, I'll go off and play WoW, probably trying to going whatever guild Ian (Suki) is in, since he's the only person I know who plays it.
