Having technical difficulty, have a poem.

The Transcendental Orbit of the Dark Raven Moon

Drawings on primitive walls have a moon that rises with a face down between two pillars. From the iron age, images on shields of the raven moon hailed the histories biggest empire. Tales from the dark ages invoke the dawning of the night that saved us from the laissez-faire attitude towards slackers wasting their lives on paltry non-productive endevours such as scribbling, inventing new noises and making a show of themselves. Even 500 years past they were able to know that it that eclipses the sun for the quinquennial years.

But all of these are just fanciful fairy tales for a phenomena quite boring and explained by scientists in the modern times. Opposite of orbit of the planet lies an invisible portal, a dimensional rift, a wormhole of such, that the moon passes through with its antithetical brother from another reality temporarily cuckoo-doppelganging it’s position until it cycles back through the moongate. It’s all quite basic and uninteresting when you really look at it on paper unlike the imaginative times of old. Yes, there are better things to do than ponder what the burning ravens of black fire do when they disembark the dark moon and descend upon our land. These are things science has already classified then declared base, boring and not worth further study. In fact there isn’t much of anything to spark wonderment anymore with all the knowledge we have. Resume work.

My technical difficulties are still real life home maintenance, relationships where everyone needs help, lack of sleep, high stress, and viruses for days. I should maybe be able to start work tomorrow. It’s been 6 days, you guys deserve at least a micro patch. I got basically nothing done since it’s been non stop, ya know how she goes. I closed my door, turned the phone off, friends will be there when I finish. We’re entering work mode, but I wanted to be here last Sunday, lol. Sometimes you gotta help people, ya know? Love is more important than all.

2) Networking that pushes the envelope where no networking has gone before. People laugh at this like it is impossible to innovate, but I marketed it to Midway in 2003, and they laughed too. Meanwhile it was working in house as a Tekken style(3d fighter) MMO with part of what today is known as rollback code. Midway's manager was mocking what is today's standard thinking rollback and such was impossible. Infinite action players same zone, limit only by video card and other hardware, networking ain't a limiting thing anymore.

4) First MMO designed for late game. Everyone enjoys mmos until power capped and then get bored.
There is no power cap to begin with(just a log log logarithmic progression), but there are many many many other end game design elements to make it so want to keep playing end game! The grind is there, but better and more fun things are around too! You can build up a super big fleet and it get destroyed to pieces and you start over again. You have a power floor level that you can't go below so you're always building permanent power, but temporary spikes of power surges and galactic dominance for fleeting moments give a rush. The larger the fleet, the larger the fleeting moment.

8) PVP bounty system. Everyone can PVP at all times. Stakes are low if your ship explodes. If you get attacked without declaring aggressive mode or an opponent to duel, the aggressor gets a bounty on their head in accordance with the damage dealt to you. If this bounty gets high enough, and they get caught, they will be put in jail. When they log on for the next few hours or days, their character can play only in jail, and visitors come see him and such. Enjoy roleplaying being a prison inmate, or just use a different crew member on your account. Developing many crew members is a thing for when you fly capital ships.

10) Omnipotent roleplay: Earn your right into a a movie anime by great roleplay! Live game masters in about 6-12 months after the content updates roll through. We bias people with Founder's RP tokens some and good manner role players who stay in character(we have chat logs and even game logs). This promotes good role play even when not live GMing. Who doesn't want to bring their friends to a movie and surprise em with their own character in it? So stay in character for a better game! https://www.starfightergeneral.com/live-role-play/

Punky-Pulpy action, Levels, stats, skills, talents, items, fleet amassing, and great apocalyptic space plots, trippy Lewis Carrol level Mad Hatter humor along the way. It's really weird to see how this synergizes from a game design standpoint. Players naturally want to level up and power up... That's the twink min maxer in all of us. So when humor, plots, intrigue, or NPCs getting your blood boiling to action vs them happens, you get stoked, rewarded, happy and tossed off your axis. Then when resolved, you look back and get serious about powering up. The core of a RPG gamer is always powering up, it is something we can't get rid of, but the core of a game designer is to get you out of a spreadsheet mindset temporarily... And then you appreciate both more. So tacky humor, along serious pulp action and serious leveling up game mechanics... It is like a symphony of fun.
