| synsoul | hello | 00:22 |
|---|---|---|
| GeofftheMedio_ | hi | 00:22 |
| synsoul | how goes? just found out about freeorion. new to genre entirely. | 00:23 |
| synsoul | fun stuff | 00:23 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | how did you hear about it? | 00:23 |
| synsoul | Stumbleupon | 00:23 |
| synsoul | Random Wikipedia entry button | 00:23 |
| synsoul | :) | 00:23 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | it linked to the wikipedia page, not the actual freeorion website? | 00:24 |
| synsoul | that button just does a random wikipedia page, but i dl'd from the main wiki | 00:25 |
| synsoul | umm... can i ask like gameplay related questions while i'm here? | 00:26 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | ? did you use the stumbleupon program, or the wikipedia random page link? | 00:26 |
| synsoul | the stumbleupon toolbar in firefox | 00:26 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | that doesn't just link to wikipedia pages, does it? | 00:26 |
| synsoul | it was just chance, honestly. i must have 'liked' more than one 'free open source game' page | 00:27 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | ok | 00:27 |
| synsoul | not exclusively; it's just an addon that has that function | 00:27 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | mkay. | 00:29 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | yes, you can ask about freeorion. trying it out first might be more useful, though. | 00:30 |
| synsoul | understood. only been playing about two days | 00:30 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | if you've been playing two days, that's probably plenty to get the basics... | 00:33 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | I just didn't want to go over issues like "does FreeOrion have starlanes?" | 00:33 |
| synsoul | no, no | 00:35 |
| synsoul | well, I still probably need at least a week | 00:35 |
| synsoul | lol | 00:35 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | keep in mind FreeOrion is still under development... it's not a finished game, and there's probably not a week's worth of stuff to learn... | 00:37 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | beyond the interface and basics of the design, most of the content is still preliminary and not worth learning | 00:38 |
| synsoul | understood | 00:38 |
| synsoul | how long has it been in development? | 00:38 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | over 3 years now... | 00:38 |
| GeofftheMedio_ | a game like this is surprisingly complicated under the hood | 00:39 |
| synsoul | oh, i imagine. | 00:39 |
