CarrionCrow: Good morning. =)

Feeling better today?

moonshineshadow: Yep, not feeling so exhausted and tired anymore, getting a normal amount of sleep was really nice :D
That's good. Not easy to go through a busy day when you're getting maybe a third of a night's sleep.

So what about you, will you get some real sleep or taking naps on your keyboard again? :P

CarrionCrow: All right, putting this here for the time being as a placeholder of sorts.

One time I've learned from hanging around more than a few sales is that there are really good people here. But, the tendency is that once the sale of the moment ends, people go back to various random threads to converse, only coming back together on any large or consistent scale when a new sale hits.

I hope that this thread will help to change that somewhat. It's an open thread for people to see each other, hang out, talk about whatever comes to mind. It doesn't have to be about games, it doesn't have to be serious.
Hence the free-for-all title. ;)

There are no cliques here, no exclusive groups of people.
All who are capable of conversing without insult or the need to put others down are welcome. =)
That is both thoughtful and helpful, and I appreciate your effort in starting this thread.

I have a game issue that I hope GOG can address but perhaps the community of gamers here can point to some non-GOG help that would also be great.
I am desperately seeking a sci-fi galaxy merchant/exploration game that really is not about the killing.
Starflight 2 fit that requirement and I am truly stumped to find a galaxy roaming merchant/explorer since.
I thank GOG for offering "Space Colony" but it is more like a biodome sim rather than a space exploration, galactic merchant adventure game.

Are there any suggestions for a space merchant and exploration game?

bad_fur_day1: Reply wave to you nice gog gamers of the conversational free for all thread, thanks for cheering me up the other day.

"If your ever feeling down and out, all you need is the Cat Bureau."

Not sure exactly why I quoted that. Maybe because it's a quote that should be remembered more often.
Good evening. =)

Feel free to hang out if you like. There are a lot of good people here.

I'm just a person who spends a near-insane amount of time at their computer.
The people here are what make the thread.

In regards to your question, Wing Commander Privateer is coming to mind. If I'm remembering correctly, you can be a merchant in that game. Might be worth a look.

moonshineshadow: *welcome wave* So are you having a good day now?
Difficult question. I wonder what would constitute a really good day, lying on the beach all day in Hawaiii drinking cocktails with beautiful girls at a resort. Or looking for work in suburbia and maybe getting to watch the Man of Steel later. Hmm.

I would say the first one would probably fall in an even better category than good :P

Thank you, I will give WC a run (I recall I played a version back in the 80s and did not finish it) perhaps this version will have enough exploration and trading to immerse me into the game.
I will let you know :D

CarrionCrow: Good morning. =)

A rough spot here and there, but can't complain. It even rained for a couple minutes. -laughs-

How are you doing today?
As you might have guessed - i answer late - i'm in a bit of a hurry. But otherwise i'm good.
I have to leave to university now.

See you later :).
