I would definitely agree that, despite all the complaints of stability, lack of variety, etc. etc. -- the worst part of the game is most definitely its addictiveness In fact, I would wager that the people getting upset over relatively trivial matters *wouldn't* be, if the game were not as engaging as it were.

I think the box should have a warning label on it that says stuff like "Freelancer may cause you to forgo necessities such as sleep and personal hygeine in favour of gaming" ...
