  • I own an LGS and during covid I had a lot of “paying it forward” and it created a LOT of extra work for me for very little pay out.

    I had a friend from high school who now lives 2200 miles away. He purchased a game through my online shop and instead of shipping it to him he had me give it to someone local. That person bought a game, and did the same thing. This went on for two weeks or so. Everyone wanted me to do some kind of contest for their game. I was putting in 2-3 hours of work for $20 or so. After two weeks or however long it was, I gave up. I told the last person who bought it I gave it to a random person.

    This was all during the lock down so I could not even be open at the time. I had to hand deliver the prize around town, or set up a place for them to pick it up. I loved the idea of it all, but it was not worth it on my end at all.






  • The outside they are pretty different, but the inside, as far as I have seen, is the same. There are three dominant species across the galaxy and each station is inhabited by that system’s species. And there are also pirate stations. Those are different than the others. There used to be abandoned stations in abandon systems, but I have not yet played enough (I mostly play during expeditions currently) to comment on those. Lastly there is the anomaly, I will not go into detail about that because of spoilers. But it is different than the others.

    One thing I will tell you is once you get close enough to a station’s entrance you are put onto autopilot for landing.
