Its addictive like any Strategy game often is that lets you manage fleets, build armies, take over planets or colonize them and explore space which triggers some interesting events and side stories to your conquest of the galaxy. Its still in the development via DLCs but the core game is alright. Each play through varies so in some cases you can write some very interesting stories about your experience. I kind of liked the game better when it first came out. Seems unbalanced right now but the developers keep working on this. With each update I notice there usually is an expansion in the choices you can make to build your empire and how you defend it or attack others. Right now, this is my favorite space-themed game.

Basic, team-based multiplayer shooter. Present-day weaponary with nothing too fancy or specialized. Lots of fun if you just want a multiplayer shooter to jump into.

I thought I must have missed that this is 'chapter 1' in the title or something but this is the whole documentary. If this were an english paper you gave to your teacher or professor you would get an F. Its incomplete and the narrative goes nowhere. I am completely serious. Where is the conclusion? I could see it if this was an advertisement. But supposedly its a documentary but its nothing more than what you can read in a headline.

Is this meant to convince gamers and programmers to be white hat hackers who hunt black hat hackers? Because it does not even give a reason to that or anything for that matter. It just plays a random set of dubious statements from arrested hackers. For all we know this 'documentary' is just an edited together compilation of statements these people were forced to say. One of these guys has a handler for god sakes. It would seem he is a translator but the hacker in this case clearly understands the english spoken to him. Maybe this hacker can not speak English well but the guy next to him looks like a business man who got this hacker on loan from the government. Which again is something not explored.

Documentaries go into detail about all the subject matter they bring up. Exposing several facets of issues because there are complex details which express the experience. The experience is something lost on future generations or people from other backgrounds. When you live under different circumtances you may not understand an issue very while. So documentaries need substance. And they need to back up their claims or conclusions with things that can be verified and explored by the viewers otherwise it is not indistinguishable from fiction. And all documentaries follow a non-fiction narrative meaning the excitement is in that fact the events shown or expressed actually happened.

So this is a short piece crap I would not even call a short film. Its a clip. Do not waste your time. Watch an educational video on programming. Go meet up with real people.

To summarize the film. Hackers: I did bad things. I am ashamed. I was poor and had no other choice. I kept doing it or did hacking (instead of other crimes) because hacking was fun.

We should know how it is that these guys are talking to us today. None them are speaking from a jail cell or white room. Its either an apartment, nice office or server room. In other words this stroy tries to sell the idea hacking is bad, dangerous is a better word, but refuses to explore how bad it is. And it lacks the details of these crimes only loosely stating hacked organizations. Its a reality that people have been punished badly on trumphed up charges or false accusations. So how do we know or decide these guys are criminals and did REALLY bad things without exploring this? Fine, hacking is bad but the story plays like the classic crack dealer from a poor neighborhood story and they simply replaced crack dealer with hacker and Detriot with Romania.

On my best play I nearly raised the GDP to max but then the debt crisis happened. I kept unemployment to near zero. I made Germany the tech and productivity captial of the world. I even got rid of some unnecessary taxes as so much money was being made. Crime was reduced to insignificance and somehow I got Germans to stop drinking themselves to death, eat healthier and made organic food and the environment our focus without a carbon tax. That was my main strategy to get the economy so good. In addition proper timing of introducing policies to reduce poverty and unemployment and funding robotics and space exploration made it a complete success.

In the end due to my nation's greatness extremism prolieferated in the shroud of nationalism. The moment I treated foreigners as human beings racial tension erupted. And due to my promotions of technology cyber crime was presistent even though overall crime was essentially zero. I had brought law enforcement and public military service at max to combat this oddity only to have it re-emerge later. Almost all groups loved me and my popularity was only tarnished by the tanked global economy and debt crisis.

I gave funding to education early on at great risk because I knew the future GDP of our nation would give an opportunity to all people. I made balances in our policies to help the liberals deal with living in the great nation of Germany. In doing so the capitalists bagan to hate me as equally as the liberal. But only the liberals were trying to assassinate me. The funny thing is I never considered nor had need for a police state until the liberals started trying to kill me. They forced extremism because no policy was liberal enough for them without destroying the nation. So they had created their own nightmare. I had hoped I would somehow get them before they would get me. In the end it was the minroity group of liberals who couldn't stand living in a truly great nation that killed me. I could have kept Germany the city upon a hill forever.
