Dear Spore,

alectoperditaPlease give me back the last 30 hours of my life. I loathe you and your illusion of progression.
Love,
Alecto and her empire of Mokonas bent on ruling the galaxy with an iron fist
P.S. And now some more thoughts on Spore.
It seems there are a number of somewhat broken gameplay elements in Spore (mainly the Space portion):
1. AUTO-SAVE PLZ! Or at least give me a shortcut to save. Because otherwise I forget and lose the last 5 hours because you decide to crash!
2. Military sucks ass. How are you supposed to expand to the rest of the galaxy when there's constantly some douchebag attacking your colony every other minute? Most of my time has been spent ferrying between my colonies (yeah, all 3 of them) to fend off foes or over to some planet to avert ecological disaster.
2a. You could have made it more clear that the ecology has to be completely stabilized. I would have many less ecological disaster.
3. I was into that "no cheating" policy at first, but now I see why the cheats are transparently built into the game. BECAUSE YOU CAN'T PROGRESS OTHERWISE. Thus, I am now cheating your stupid ass off.
4. I'm playing on Easy mode here. That either means I'm really bad at this or you're really broken.
5. Stop being like crack, k plz? I need to spend time on other things; like fanfics, spending time with the cat or the boyfriend, or eating dinner.
6. Seriously, stop being like crack. I'm going into withdrawal at work just thinking about you.
7. Stop making me be all CAPSLOCKY and LULZ!
