Author is beyond long-winded
The synopsis of this game looked good. I love space role-playing games, and having been a naval officer for 7 years, I liked the thought of reimagining shipboard life in space.
But good god, the author writes like his life is on the line if he doesn’t spew as many words out as possible.
Example: “The tritanium hull is thick and dotted with force-shield emitters that can block or turn aside all manner of threats with only the occasional leak-through while the maser suite is capable of hurling intense macro-laser bursts from a dozen different firing points. “
Not only is it an elementary run-on sentence, but almost the entire middle section could have been eliminated. It actually is tiresome reading through the game, because I’m at the mercy of a blowhard thesaurus fiend who eschews punctuation, grammar, and perhaps more importantly, FLOW.
