I've been doing that. I'd like to see the option for me to comment on the planets that others have discovered, and the way they've named things... AFTER everything has been found and/or named. i.e. interaction

In an ideal version of this game, there would be a way to leave an imprint on a planet that transcends and is comparative to other players... something more than naming.

There's an additional candidate on every ballot (other than Hilary and Donald) that people could choose as someone to vote FOR.

I'm in the US a lot but I'm not a US citizen &I don't have a vote, but if I did I know I'd vote FOR Johnson/Weld. As a libertarian I wouldn't presume to tell anyone else how they should vote though.

Perhaps this poll, like the upcoming presidential debates maybe ought to include the Gary Johnson option?

I've been playing for 10 hours and haven't seen anything named by anyone else yet. I'm kind of looking forward to it.

It'd be cool if there was some way of interacting, or even just leaving a 'guest book' style message for those who come after to read.

The Boris development is interesting. Theresa May immediately rises to the top of the pile with his removal from the equation. I wonder what the Tories will do?

@doomguy2: It doesn't have to be that way though. The rhetoric of the emerging powerbase (whomever that will be) can be positive and constructive while at the same time supportive of the democratic leave choice. I don't think that a politician could win a general election with a racist prospectus. The only thing the referendum asked (and therefore gives a mandate for) is leaving the EU.

That was a heavy punch at PMQs. He might not be willing to acknowledge the no-confidence vote from his own party MPs but will Corbyn now follow Cameron's instruction to leave? If he doesn't, Tories will win (Corbyn-led Labour is completely unelectable and only the hardest-core believers would say otherwise). If he does go, Tories can say that he only did so after being told to by a Tory Prime Minister. Guaranteed win-win for them. Ouch.

I haven't had especially recommendable experiences with games this year other than these three.

@aethelred: I never really understood that given that both coalition parties had to compromise. It wasn't as if they (i.e. the Lib Dem component) could have done any better. They tried to hold the pledge in the negotiation. Conservatives made an issue of that pledge and the Lib Dems lost in the negotiation on that front. From that point onward my feeling was that blaming the Lib Dems for not upholding a pledge that they no longer had agency to uphold was logically odd, even if maybe it felt emotionally like a betrayal to some people.

But then I'm 36. Not exactly a 'young person'.

I love fully self-serious sci fi and cyberpunk. Neuromancer and Altered Carbon are some of my favorite books and DX:HR is one of my favorite games. I'm replaying it for the fourth time right now in the lead up to DX:MD release in Aug. Can't wait.

@kmfrob: I don't like him, but I don't hate Cameron either. He's a classic Eton-produced one-nation Tory with all the limitations in perspective and understanding that this correspondingly brings, but I think he has a principled core to him... He's not the absolute worst.
