That's brilliant. Sometimes I love the internet!

Thanks for sharing :)

I love the idea of the game but sadly its key features (unwarned timed events with discovered rather than spelled out objectives) make the idea of playing it too stressful to be fun. Working to schedule isn't fun to me. :s I should probably give it a chance... Maybe with a guide.

Somebody needs to put the 'infinite landers' bug back in. Trying to play the game gathering resources legitimately is nigh impossible.

what an enormous universe, so many shinning stars in the sky, quite different from guild wars 2 world

I was really ticked when I found out about the very short time limit. You use up something like a quarter of it just getting to the planet the droids are coming from and getting back. I found it to be a quite enjoyable game. Would have loved to see Mass Effect take more from it.
