says the guy who hasn't played ST:R. 
You've GOT to be KIDDING me.
Seriously. That doesn't seem physically possible. What are you doing sitting in front of your screen instead of playing it ?
Indeed, not playing ST:R is like trying to beat someone to death with his own skull. It simply doesn't seem physically possible.
The reason that I haven't played it yet is simple... I haven't played FS at all in well over 2 years. I can't recall exactly how long ago, but its been just over 2 years since I moved into my new apartment and my Saitek X52 is still sitting in its box from when I moved. From before that however, I recall that I was getting tired earlier in the evenings (not go-to-bed tired but don't-have-the-energy-to-play-FS tired) so I found myself playing FS less and less. I continued to FRED somewhat, but since I wasn't testing my own missions, I eventually stopped doing that too. I even dropped out of the community for quite a while, resurfacing here between 6 to 10 month intervals. Hopefully I'll stick around this time.
As to why I don't play THESE days, it also comes down to the fact that I have a 2yr. old daughter who not only could get to and damage my stick, but who also requires constant attention... that is, to prevent her from injuring herself or damaging something in the apartment... as well as the daddy-daughter attention. TV helps fill in the gaps... thank GOD for Treehouse TV on digital cable.
I'd like to get back to doing FS... both FRED, gaming, and modding, hopefully once my baby gets a little older and a little more responsable. When that time comes and after I've played through the original campaigns to see all the new cool effects, ST:R will be at the top of my list of campaigns to play... then, back to my old projects.
Later!
