1. I'm enjoying it so far, myself

I played one of Smedley's earlier games, Tanarus, back in the nineties, and was all kinds of pleased to see that some of the staff from there (to say nothing of Smedley himself) are still around. I can see the influence of that game all over this one too; there's a really strong "this is what we've been working towards for fifteen years" vibe. This project is run by good people.

I probably am going to buy a stack of cert points off of them soon; I'll probably be playing around with this one for awhile and it's certainly given me a few bucks' worth of entertainment. That and I want to support those guys on general principle, since I love ridiculously ambitious game projects.

I love Vanu fighters. I suck at flying Vanu fighters. I am getting quite good at carrying both of these facts in my head at the same time.
