Spore
« on: September 24, 2008 08:32 am CDT »
Quiet around here. I like to think you're all busy playing spore, like me (when I have the chance to, anyway).

Okay, so it's not great. And it didn't live up to the hype surrounding it (but really, how rare is it that things ever do), but don't discount it just based on a few negative things you may have heard.

It is fun. Whether or not it's worth the $50 is up to you, but give it a try however you can.

I have not heard anything but good things about the game, but it's not a game that interested me much to begin with so I don't know if I will ever play it.

I've heard mostly bad things about it, for good reason. It has a lot of faults, but I think it's a lot of fun overall.

I was going to buy it as soon as it came out, but the DRM stopped me cold.  Anyone else pissed off about it?

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

What about it? I heard they ditched the 10-day reauthorization system. Isn't that a good thing?

Yes, if that was the end of the story.  Instead of 10 day activations, they now have that limited activation count bullmalarkey like Bioshock, only there's no way to reclaim activations (like via uninstallation).

I just bought it and used a crack to play it. They get their money, I can install it on my PC as many times as I want.

It looks like that's the only sensible option open to most of us.
