Yet another MMO, but this one is set in the Star Wars universe. Because light sabres, yo.
Conclusion: Amateur night.
This would have been great in the late nineties. Right now, the voiceovers are fantastic but the quest interactive cutscenes are ugly. The choices are sometimes vague and unforgiving. There is spectacular effort with all the rendered videos, but that just took away from resources for the game itself.

My TODO list is big. More annoyingly, it’s not really one TODO list. I have notes scattered throughout my computer: in text files; in a local knowledgebase; in program source.. and in this case in the rc.xml configuration file for Openbox.

Fantastic.

Due to an interesting bug with fdupes (again, something I should write on) I splatted some of my system. While it’s trivial to restore stuff because I do proper regular backups, I decided to install the updated rc1 (Release Candidate 1) of Unity Linux.
I found a reproducible bug on wordpress.com around 2010-04-11 or so, where images are not deleted when the user supposedly deletes them.
