Cruises aren't even expensive which is the funny part, actually one of the cheapest vacations considering what's included. Outside of camping cruising is cheaper than most destination types of vacations with a similar but better vibe compared to Vegas.
Why would I want to go to this disgusting seedbed of infectious diseases that is going to sail to some third world shithole and possibly get raided by Black person pirates?
If you can afford a yacht and don't mind the astronomical upkeep, it's a private home, with servers, on water. I know some people that are regularly invited to vacation on one and a 5* hotel does not compares.
There is a class of people in our society who don't even consider money as a factor in determining what they do with their time. You spend your life slaving away to support their lifestyles.
I saw a cruise advertised recently, can't remember the exact amount but I remember thinking that that even I, as a poorgay on state bennies could afford it. Made me change my perception of cruises for sure.
Not even bottom tier cruise for 8 days was $800 Australian. cheap as frick. Buffet included. Food was slightly above sloppa grade but not too bad.
They make their money having a casino on board, drinks and shilling photos.
I have been on multiple cruises. They are awful, but I have boomer parents so I have to put up with them.
The food usually sucks, the service usually sucks, everything is restricting as hell, the rooms are tiny, and you still need to pay for shit that you’d think would be complimentary.
The best part about the last cruise I was on was that a passanger fought with my brother in a fist fight, which I enjoyed mostly because I hate that homosexual.
Carnival cruises are the Chuck E Cheese of the sea. Black folk break out into mass brawls and one of them always goes missing by falling into the ocean. It happens at least monthly. If Black folk can afford it literally anyone can.
Agreed. I remember my manager got me to go to one of those. Honestly the only interesting thing we're those group sex orgies and secret parties that were there.
i dont get the point of these things, why does all of this need to exist on a boat?
Setting aside the pointlessness, don't people know that boats sink? Wouldnt you rather go to an amusement park that you dont have to live in fear of waking up one night to find the floor soaked with water and that you're already on your way down to a deep dark watery abyss
>Food poisoning, lack of power, clean water issues, sewage issues, missing persons
Yes, these things should continue to grow.
>A fricking amusement park in the middle of the sea. >homosexual modern "men" turn their nose up and scoff at this miracle of modern engineering.
Holy frick numales need a shotgun enema.
It's just Ganker being compulsively miserable and antifun killjoys, they were left out of everything as kids and developed a deep cynicism and antisocial complex. Most of the people in this thread are poorhomosexuals who have never been on a cruise ship despite them being cheaper than ever these days. Just boring manchildren with no sense of joy, adventure or daring sneering at things they have never experienced for no reason other than to be contrarian. Most are also probably irrationally scared of boats and the sea.
>>Food poisoning, lack of power, clean water issues, sewage issues, missing persons
Literally not an issue on these ships that cost 1-2 billion USD to produce.
All 3 can be issues some of these ships are very old. This new one though shouldn't be an issue for a bit as long as maintained. Seriously the upkeep on this thing will cost more than the ship all those amusement rides on a fricking boat normal theme parks already can barely keep shit maintained. That south park episode Cartmanland sums it up real well owning a theme park is a nightmare owning one on water is what the frick are you doing tier more money than sense

If you think the odds of you dying on a cruise ship in any way should stop you from going, I hope you never leave your house to drive to the grocery store.
Going to the grocery store is the safest way to obtain good nutritious food.

>left wing strawman of right wing beliefs
The modern right supports 'consumerism' because they believe economic freedom is tied to free expression. That is, you don't have someone telling you how to live, but rather you choose your own interests and hobbies.
They support "environmental destruction" (not really) because they believe excessive environmental protections pull up the ladder for young people and makes it too expensive and difficult to make use of natural resources the way past generations did; they're trying to ensure future generations can enjoy prosperity and not be reliant on the State.
They put GDP growth on a pedestal because a good economy has a strong correlation to social security and confidence. That is, people have the financial luxury to pursue their interests and desires and so they're not constantly living in fear of going broke. They feel like their country is strong and that they can believe that tomorrow is going to be better.
>people not being miserable 24/7, resenting the world, living in fear of some imminent apocalypse and having hope for the future is a fantasy
not him but you're not making a good case for yourself here anon
The modern right is the right wing of liberalism, a destructive progressive movement.
Optimistic individualism and hubris are two sides of the same coin
And existential nihilism leads to the death of nations. What's your point? I'd rather live in a society that has confidence in itself than live in one that hates itself.
Genuine traditional conservatism doesn't create anything, it just seeks to preserve what already exists. It is stagnation by definition, you can't have a society that exists in a permanent stasis; that's not how humanity works. And furthermore, what qualifies as the 'correct period' to focus on is also highly subjective. Some people think the 1980s was perfect, some think the 1950s, some think the 1870s, some think the 1300s, some think 200BC. It's not like any of those points were utopian either, some ways they were better and some ways they were worse. And the same can be said about the future; maybe in some ways it will be better and some ways it will be worse.

Seeing the massive divergence in outcome between the leftists I know and the conservatives as they age, its because the leftists don't have the ability or talent or drive to make anything of themselves, have already given up on life, and resent everyone who's more successful than they are. They're basically just waiting to die, so stagnation is okay by them.
Its been really hard to watch that happen to people I considered friends.

Leftists are mostly young and afflicted with the climate hysteria that has been pushed on the youth for decades, this death cult of environmental hysteria gives young people an awfully negative view of the future and makes them believe that they must diminish their quality of life so that in some far off uncertain future the world will not end. It's all bullshit of course with an ulterior motive, but can seriously affect impressionable youth who feel responsible for the world being somehow "worse" even if the "worseness" is largely illusory, exaggerated or just flat out not a problem. So you will see a lot of young people with a withdrawn, hopeless mentality who have no drive to better themselves because they've already been convinced that the world is ending and that it's all their fault yet they are paradoxically not responsible and powerless to stop it. So they miss out on life, not taking the risks their boomer parents/grandparents took when they were young, not going places or trying new things or seeing the world because of self inflicted stagnation.

Let's be clear about this homosexual, for a period of time all of humanity decided "hubris" as a concept didn't exist, and we could do anything. This idiotic mindset would break itself against something eventually, it just happened to be the climate crisis
But it's just inherently disgusting and unsustainable. Clean energy and tech wouldn't fix it. That would just lead to more pollution, the same way more efficient coal consumption in the 1800s lead to more coal burning.

The thing is, your entire ideology is predicated on the assumption that doomsday is in Two Weeks unless we enact turbo hippie communism RIGHT NOW. The problem being that your ilk have been saying this shit for 50 years, and every time your prediction fails to pass you just push the dates back. In the 1970s, they said we were gonna enter another ice age. In the 1980s, we were told that we were going to run out of oil by 1999. In the 90s, the ozone layer and ice caps were supposedly going to be completely gone by the 2010s. When I was growing up 30 years ago, I was told that my city was going to be underwater in 20 years. Sorry, but I just don't believe you anymore. You have cried wolf too many times.
The idea is that you can visit and sightsee a bunch of coastal town/places while also enjoying the time you spend on getting there instead of just sitting around for hours and being bored while on transit. Basically a super fancy exclusive hotel that also moves around
That being said, I know some people go on cruises on those without really ever leaving it during the trip, which is something I don't really get
Novelty of living in complete luxury on the ocean?
Are you much of a "scenic location"? kind of guy?

You have problems.
It’s all there is to do in this hell we call a multicultural society. When you realize the solution you’ll know that millions will die, because some genus just aren’t compatible living around anything else. It’s like playing King of the Hill on a CTF map, it doesn’t work and actual humans have reached their breaking point.
Like others have said, it's just a fancy hotel that moves around so you get to see more sights on your vacation. The funny thing is though is that surprisingly few of the safety regulations have been updated since the Titanic. Most of these ships still only have 2 watertight compartments so theoretically another Titanic situation is possible.
With that being said, these ships have vastly improved communications equipment, GPS tracking and much better lifeboats.
I would hate to go on one of these just because it looks like an amusement park for kids and I think being surrounded by screaming children would ruin much of the appeal of a nice sea voyage. If I had to go on a cruise I'd probably choose a Cunard.
Its safer than a plane usually. They're good when you're a kid or an adult who wants to cheat on your spouse for a week then forget all about it like summer camp for adults. Old people love em cause they party til they die on them blowing every dollar as a last frick you
Thats a great idea. Could even have dlc where you travel to New places on the boat after main game of being on the boat. Too bad they don't make good dead rising games anymore
Was just about to post that.
Maybe zombie survival styled towards dead island? Or perhaps post apocalyptic management game where you get stuck on the sea with everyone on board, but the crew knows they can't dock without people getting infected?
Something like that.

Think about that for a second.
Think about how many morons are on this site at any given time. Just imagine how fricking stupid you have to be to be considered the biggest moron of them all.
Do we? Given nobody has ever built or sailed a ship that size before.
Yes we should have better systems now, but never fully discount the unknown unknowns or the ability of hype/marketing etc to override safety concerns.
For all you know, some engineer involved in the project is screaming at their bosses about some major safety problem & they're completely ignoring it claiming it'll never be an issue. None of us will know until years after it's sunk, with you on board.
Not likely. Cruise ships are even safer than modern airliners and are loaded with safety features, along with being on the ocean rather than 30,000 feet in the air, you have to be pretty moronic to die on a cruise ship.

It goes on too safe of routes and stays docked during shitty weather: it'll be fine from sinking. It will create a frickton of pollution and rapidly spread a lot of cold, flu or food poisoning bugs to ruin a lot of peoples' vacations, though.

It's the same reason why lots of communities will stop going to local businesses once the Wal-Mart shows up. They're getting their vacation desires met by the boat: why bother stepping off of it?
One big difference between cruise ships and ocean liners is that cruise ships aren't really meant for heavy waters and only meant to coast around peacefully while an ocean liner has to make trips between two areas regardless of the weather and condition (not that ocean liners are a thing anymore anyways)
Cruises are depressing as frick if you don't have a wife/girlfriend to go with. I went with my parents a few years ago and I was so depressed seeing all the couples. I had my own room with a balcony and it was kind of comfy at night to just listen to the waves and stare out a the ocean with the moon in the sky.
It was a melancholy type of feel, still was mostly depressed the entire time.
Unironically reminds me of some Phantasy Star Universe/Online 2 shit. In a good way.
Makes me want an MMO where the central hub/lobby is a cruise ship like this now.
What happens if you fall from one of these? Assuming you survive hitting the water without any major injuries and someone sees you fall and reports it, would they be able to retrieve you, or are you just lost at sea?
Lifeboats are also used as passenger craft. So someone throws you the donut floaty thing and then the lifeboat is deployed to pick you up. If the waves are big and you cant swim to the ring you'd be fricked pretty quick tho i imagine.
I was on a cruise a month ago. Lifeboats look tiny from outside due to scale but they hold 150+.
Cruise ships are required to have MOB (Man Overboard) detection systems nowadays which would alert the event and track your body in the water. However, this technology is pretty new and due to the coof a lot of the checks for the presence and functionality of these systems weren't done by the coast guard, and they haven't yet bothered to pick up the slack. So it'd really depend on how lucky or unlucky you get.
This is more what happens if someone else falls off a ship, not what happens if (you) fall off
wtf is the person that fell off supposed to do in the half hour it takes for the ship to find you
can you do anything if you have your phone or will it not have service

There's actually a recent (few months ago) video that shows a guy jumping off the cruise ship as some dare or something. He's likely drunk, and the cruise doesn't seem to be in america, but it was at pitch black night and the cruise ship just went going, had no idea he went over, and he died.
tl;dr if it's dark and/or you don't get spotted and thrown some kind of high visibility float ASAP you're fricked, the ocean is a big place and it takes a cruise ship a long time to turn around to pick someone up

Literally happens every few weeks. If you aren't wearing a life jacket you're fish food.
I tell you right now that a cruise ship is an alcoholic's paradise if you pay far out the ass for the "drink package" which is usually several thousand but it's ALL YOU CAN DRINK alcohol, like you can literally stay drunk and drink around the clock.
I promise you that alcoholics love it, can just ask for anything at the bar and you don't have to fork over money because it's already paid for by the drink package you purchased. I guess they don't expect people to consume $1000's worth of alcohol in a week, but they underestimate alcoholics who are drinking around the clock everyday. I'm sure some of you homosexuals would be doing that, just going to a bar at 10 AM or some shit.
Would have been fun when I was in my 20s, but even going to anime conventions now and staying buzzed around the clock is murder when I finally have to come down from it.
Drink packages is like $80/day, not thousands. It's basically drinking 8+ wienertails a day which are $8-$12 on a cruise ship. So yes, it's an alcoholics paradise because the booze is cheap, you're allowed to be drunk everywhere on the ship, and you don't have to drive or go anywhere. And in the morning you're drinking mimosas with your breakfast.
I don't know what cruise you went on but my parents paid like $1200 or some shit for a drink package for a one week cruise. It might vary from ship to ship or company I guess.
It's per person so $80/day would be be over $1000 on a 7 day cruise for 2 people. Personally I don't drink enough to get that value because even a full day of 8+ drinks I have to take the next day off drinking.
I wonder if alcoholics die on cruise ships from the excessive drinking? I bet they do, it's probably a common issue the cruise liners have to face, having drunks everywhere.
Not that I know of, it's just old people dying of old people things from what I understand whenever people die on cruise ships. If you're too drunk the bar will cut you off and security would stop you.
they have constant security, it's not enough just to get on board, you'd need to keep the charade up the whole trip, you'd have no room, you'd have no cards or documentation proving you should be there, which could be asked for at any moment, and you'd have none to present for food or drink.
You COULD and it does happen, but it's very difficult to get away with
If you don't pay for a cabin with a balcony and window view then you're cucking yourself bad. It's pretty comfy kino to stand or sit on the balcony at night and watch the ocean while listening to music or doing whatever.
Jacking off well not really because you have neighboring balconies and people can easily see you and what you're doing on the balcony.
>Kevin McGrath, went missing from a cruise a few days ago >Checked into his room at 3:30 AM, failed to show up for breakfast at 7:30 AM >The man overboard system didn't detect anything >Not spotted on surveillance footage >Didn't pass through customs when the ship docked later that day >An extensive search of the ship turned up nothing
Where the frick did he go?
If he had a balcony it's possible he fell overboard, especially if he was drunk and it was that late. Some anon said the MOB doesn't always detect/work, so if he was drunk and fell off his balcony into the water than he most likely drowned and sank to the bottom of the ocean.
i think theres a bunch of movies about it, but from what i gather half of the movies are bout the cruise filled with zombies and the other half a totally not dead island riptide copy cat.
Some morons in Sydney let one dock, knowing it was filled with covid, then we wound up having the whole fricking country locked down because those dumb c**ts let 4k infected run rampant in our most populous city (at a time when we simply didn't know if it was going to be Ebola-level deadly with a long incubation period).
This shit is like the very manifestation of man's hubris.It's like laughing in the face of God. It's gonna go out to sea and simultaneously hit an iceberg while being struck by the largest lightning bolt in history.
this mentality is common among people with PTSD and childhood trauma just so you know, this idea of some impending doom if something is enjoyed or done boldly
That's hyperbole, there's not that many things and that cruise ship is 5+ day ship. They really only have a dozen or so major things to do, many of which can be experienced in an hour or two (ice skating, wake boarding, the zipline, etc). Plus it's about variety, they have something for everybody.
Yah know, if equity and inclusion wasn't the mantra of society right now I would have no issue going on a cruise. But we live in the era of multiracial shit-castles and I simply don't trust being on a vehicle like that with these kind of variables in play.
I've heard these cheap cruises are literal hell. As some anon put it, it's a bunch of poor people pretending to be rich. Imagine thousands of pic-related.
Most cruise people tend to agree that you should avoid the absolute cheapest ones and go a step up
>ost cruise people tend to agree that you should avoid the absolute cheapest ones and go a step up
This is true. Carnival caters to the poorer demographic and tends to have a lot more black people and mexicans. Black people actually love cruises, but they obviously won't go on the more expensive liners unless they got money obviously. The Liberty cruises are a bit more luxurious and upscaled. Carnival is shithole.
I can't speak for Disney Cruises, but I imagine it's full of screaming children and what not.
Disney cruises have way more entitled behavior than Carnival, Carnival was like a redneck drinking party if you've ever been to one, it was actually pretty chill, no Karens. Disney on the other hand, lots of Karens.
Have you seen how complicated it is to navigate through the Disney Wish? Of course you would start to feel super entitled that you have to travel all around the deck to get to another deck.

Guys, I was so disappointed when I went on my cruise ship a year and a half ago. I couldn't find any cute anime girls to frick or invite back to my room, or even any anime fans to befriend and explore the ship with.
I even wore anime t-shirts and jackets, also one night I walked around in my Demon Slayer Haori, I got the Tanjirou one, looked so cool. I was hoping it'd attract some girls who like anime, or maybe just some anime fans in general. I didn't get a SINGLE notice at all, it was depressing. I ended up having to spend the entire cruise just jerking off all night and crying. I guess anime fans don't go on cruise ships, kind of lame. Granted it was bunch of normalgays, so I suppose the odds were stacked against me from the start.
I'm actually being serious, I wanted to find some anime girls to frick and some anime fans in general to be friends with for the duration of the cruise. I didn't find any, and none approached me. I did wear anime stuff though.
>Bro get this... you get to swim... BUT ON A SHIP! >Bro bro bro get this... you can play tennis... BUT ON A SHIP! >BRO like bro it's incredible like... you can DRUNK... but like ON A SHIP!
I don't see the appeal.
It's $500 for five nights for a luxury hotel on the ocean. The buffet is a $30/plate Vegas buffer. The fine dining is $30/plate dinner. All you can eat. All included. Wanted to try lobster? It's on the cruise, it's included. Hate it? Get another entrée. The said hotel visits tropical destinations, it's free to get off the ship and visit those destinations. These ships also have entertainment acts, magic shows, Broadway style plays, casinos, etc. It's literally a vacation where you show up and everything is handled for you, almost like adult day camp.
>m-muh environment!!!!!!!!!
anon you are going to be dead and gone in a few short years, there is literally no reason not to enjoy yourself and condemn Zoomer homosexuals to hell, besides the fact that climate hysteria is largely exaggerated and cruise ships don't really pollute that much anyway, not as much as homosexual leftist journalists would have you believe, they just hate cruises because they hate fun and anything luxurious, largely because they are commies or socialist adjacent.
Black person I'm only 30 and I intend to live until at least 90 and yes I WILL still be clapping Latina cheeks. I believe in humanities potential and I won't just give up. Honestly you sound like a gay.
Humanity is fine, we're not going anywhere. How is a little pollution going to do anything to humanity's potential? It won't. We'll just figure it out bro. Stop worrying about climate doomer hysteria peddled by homosexuals who don't know what they're talking about. The world's not going to end.
>How is a little pollution going to do anything to humanity's potential?
Anon there's a island of plastic in the Pacific ocean. The water has microplastics in it. They're finding decades old plastic toys deep in the sands of beaches.
I'm not going to pretend I have the golden answer but at least be a bit aware that this is is real and it fricked our future generations, you can't just shit on them because "they're annoying and liberal".
>m-muh environment!!!!!!!!!

Am I the only one losing sleep about the more than 0% chance of nuclear war? That will really frick up the environment. I hope to due in the bombings if/when it happens.
We're not getting TES6 until we're 50 anyway. At least this way Todd will have some actual fricking inspiration for the next Fallout to be released in 2056.
>That will really frick up the environment. >I love the environment >No, I lever leave my bug hive "city" that constantly pollutes the air >But golly gee can you imagine all the poor trees if nukes flew? I mean who gives a frick about humans
Absolutely cursed, the second you step foot on that island you'll be stuck in a temporal loop where you can never leave it. But it's still kino and S0/L
Just lots of smelly, angry young men never leaving their compartments, shit everywhere and screaming at all hours of the night. Jannies would be working overtime with no rest (for free) mopping up the cum puddles, shit bombs and raped femboys in the lower decks. At least 2 murders a day and the ship cannot legally enter port.
i'd find the /tg/ cross posters and go start a DnD game. I've always had a dream of going on a cruise with some bros to marathon a short campaign for the duration of the cruise. We'd just claim a table and the buffet and camp out there for like 12 hours a day.
actually a great idea, I went on a cruise once where I spent a bunch of free time writing a campaign setting for my group and it's an awesome headspace for that kind of thing
Think about what kind of men play videogames and post on Ganker. Now think about what they were like when they were children. What kind of negative experiences and trauma they had that shaped them into this emotionally crippled, pathologically negative, socially moronic mess. Scared of the world, hiding away in virtual playgrounds, pessimistic to their rotten core and generally spiteful of the world and their fellow man. With this in mind nothing in this thread should surprise you.
you're personally attached to an embodiment of excess

you're making up scenarios in your head to be angry about like a hardcore Gankercel
The buffet would be emptied out within an hour of it opening.
In reality, the autistic homosexuals on the Ganker ocean liner would be too picky to try new things, so there would be tonnes of untouched food and one or two common foods completely gone. The lobster would be untouched or taken away to be used as a fleshlight. Despite their work, the janitors still have to microwave their hot pockets in the staff room. The Gooner residents are nonstop rutting in massive fetishistic orgies so the refreshments, high calories foods, and alcohol runs out fast in order to fuel their nightlong carnal sexfests. There are at least 2 obese neckbeards who cannot physically get to the higher decks or fit through the stairwell so they remain below. The gacha addicts are occupying the casino 24/7 even though the dealers run out of money days ago and there just betting with nothing. The black guys on board have formed a gang of men that exclusively play fighting games and hoard the seasoned salt. The dickyposters have taken the children to the bottom deck never to be seen again.
Not very, it's a very touristy area with cafes and giftshops and whatnot. Probably constantly packed with chink tourists year-round too. >t. been there twice
>everyone looks at this ship and sees a zombie game >I see a fricked up deep see horror game which turns the passengers into body horror dead space monsters
So what's the reason for going on a cruise ship like this instead of just going to a on-land resort? Is it just for the novelty of "resort, but on a boat", or is there more to it than that? This just looks, to me, like going to a luxury resort, but with the added danger of drowning in the event of a catastrophe.
I understand what he's saying, though. I never cared about cruises because they always felt too restrictive to me. I like being free to go where I want and do what I want when I want.
There isn't one. It's just an amusement park on the water. They exist as a cheap "vacation" for poor people and moronic boomers who don't know any better. Just fly to somewhere interesting and get a taste of different cultures. You'll have a much better then time then a floating monument to everything wrong with humanity.
Daily reminder cruise ships are for boomers but there's a catch.

It's regretful whites and like, thirdie elites posting in here, who have known excess themselves
I bet the people defending this shit are fatties who couldn't have afforded cruises and vacations in the 80s
The only thing I dislike about cruises is when the ship stops in an American port like St. Thomas, even for a day, everybody has to wake up at 6am for customs. I'm on fricking vacation bro, leave me alone.
No, that's called investment and sensibility
Eating yourself obese and dragging your sorry carcass onto a floating circus with the other clowns, that's a waste of resources
meaningless babble, you are insecure and hyper self-conscious, uncomfortable in your own skin, and feel immense jealous hatred when you see people being carefree or happy because it reminds you of what you cannot have.

Cruises in the Americas are like $300-$700 for a week.
You cannot find better travel deals than that, hotel costs alone can be more than that for how long the cruises are and it includes food, drinks, and travel.
>paying hundreds, if not thousands, just for the torment of being surrounded by the constant, shrill, agonizing tone of screaming children with zero escape >this is a vacation somehow
Even as a child myself, I never understood why other children would shriek as if they were literally being killed. Having children myself is suddenly supposed to make it music to my ears?
How much worse would it have been if I got all bashful and defensive just because I actually don't have children? I'd rather own it, just like how I own the fact that I don't like hearing high-pitched screaming. I don't really see what's so odd about that.
the idea of over two thousand people toiling in the belly of that hulk is crazy. rarely seeing the sun or fresh air until your contract is up. thousands of meals a day, thousands of linens to be washed.
I saw a video clip of this rich dude on his private plane and he's flying through the air and has 3 naked chicks with him just sitting there while he grabs their breasts and stuff. man I wish I was an oil prince.
sour grapes/crab in the bucket/guilt complexes, they believe that they are "bad" or "shameful" or "greedy" for having fun and so refuse to allow themselves to live, sad and many such cases
there's just something really neat with how mankind can overcome the adversities of nature and create a mobile luxury cruiseship filled with various amenities and rides
Only for pathologically miserable homosexuals with no sense of fun or joy to b***h and moan about these marvels of engineering and to loudly decry them as "shameful" on account of their Judeo-Christian guilt complex and aversion to anything enjoyable.
Cruise ships are completely impractical. They require the planning and infrastructure of a small city. You could just go to the actual Vegas instead of gambling on a boat.
>Meet the Sky Cruise, a gigantic flying resort that was conceived by Tony Holmsten about 11 years ago and was recently animated by Hashem Al-Ghaili. The aircraft is equal parts spaceship and ocean liner, and it comes with just about every amenity you could imagine. Its ginormous size can accommodate more than 5,000 guests, who would arrive on board via commercial or private plane (that’s right—jumbo jets would land on top of the Sky Cruise).
>The aircraft is designed to use nuclear energy, which means it would be able to stay afloat—without landing—for several years. Twenty electric engines would be powered by nuclear energy, with a small nuclear reactor on board using highly controlled fusion reaction to provide unlimited energy.
Am I the only one who likes cruise ships because I get to be near the ocean? For those who don't know how or can't afford paying for a boat and a spot at the marina, cruise ships are a good way to see the seas.

I thought cruises were for poors
Cruises aren't even expensive which is the funny part, actually one of the cheapest vacations considering what's included. Outside of camping cruising is cheaper than most destination types of vacations with a similar but better vibe compared to Vegas.
Anon, cruise ship prices aren't as expensive as you think. Sometimes they can be cheaper than a hotel room.
And yet many in this thread still can't afford one.
Why would I want to go to this disgusting seedbed of infectious diseases that is going to sail to some third world shithole and possibly get raided by Black person pirates?
Idk anon, sounds like cope to me. The third world is the only place you can get a proper rum tasting tour.

No they just let you starve anon.
cruises are literally just simulated yacht experiences for poor people without the underage girls and drugs.

More like

Some of em even have Lambo engines
If you can afford a yacht and don't mind the astronomical upkeep, it's a private home, with servers, on water. I know some people that are regularly invited to vacation on one and a 5* hotel does not compares.
There is a class of people in our society who don't even consider money as a factor in determining what they do with their time. You spend your life slaving away to support their lifestyles.
>successful people and their decendants are le bad
Crab in a bucket, like the rest of leftypol.

Anon, you're doing your crusies wrong...
I saw a cruise advertised recently, can't remember the exact amount but I remember thinking that that even I, as a poorgay on state bennies could afford it. Made me change my perception of cruises for sure.
I mean, if you want an interior cabin, but why would you ever want to do that?
Not even bottom tier cruise for 8 days was $800 Australian. cheap as frick. Buffet included. Food was slightly above sloppa grade but not too bad.
They make their money having a casino on board, drinks and shilling photos.
cruises are for the poor
I went on a month long one last year. Wasn't fun but my grandparents are old so it was the last chance to travel with them.
I have been on multiple cruises. They are awful, but I have boomer parents so I have to put up with them.
The food usually sucks, the service usually sucks, everything is restricting as hell, the rooms are tiny, and you still need to pay for shit that you’d think would be complimentary.
The best part about the last cruise I was on was that a passanger fought with my brother in a fist fight, which I enjoyed mostly because I hate that homosexual.
you have to be 18 to post here, homosexual
Cruises are literally aimed at poor people
Cruises are a supposedly fun thing I'll never do again
only NPCs enjoy cruises

Carnival cruises are the Chuck E Cheese of the sea. Black folk break out into mass brawls and one of them always goes missing by falling into the ocean. It happens at least monthly. If Black folk can afford it literally anyone can.
That's the Star Wars themed hotel room in disneyworld or whatever place that was in
This. The larger the ship the lower quality of the overall experience you get.

It's just Ganker being compulsively miserable and antifun killjoys, they were left out of everything as kids and developed a deep cynicism and antisocial complex. Most of the people in this thread are poorhomosexuals who have never been on a cruise ship despite them being cheaper than ever these days. Just boring manchildren with no sense of joy, adventure or daring sneering at things they have never experienced for no reason other than to be contrarian.

Literally not an issue on these ships that cost 1-2 billion USD to produce.
All 3 can be issues some of these ships are very old. This new one though shouldn't be an issue for a bit as long as maintained. Seriously the upkeep on this thing will cost more than the ship all those amusement rides on a fricking boat normal theme parks already can barely keep shit maintained. That south park episode Cartmanland sums it up real well owning a theme park is a nightmare owning one on water is what the frick are you doing tier more money than sense
i dont get the point of these things, why does all of this need to exist on a boat?
Setting aside the pointlessness, don't people know that boats sink? Wouldnt you rather go to an amusement park that you dont have to live in fear of waking up one night to find the floor soaked with water and that you're already on your way down to a deep dark watery abyss
If you think the odds of you dying on a cruise ship in any way should stop you from going, I hope you never leave your house to drive to the grocery store.
Going to the grocery store is the safest way to obtain good nutritious food.
Trains are the fastest way to travel across land.
Planes are the fastest way to travel period.
Walking is good exercise, saves money, lowers and harm to the environment.
They all serve a purpose.
Yes and you're statistically more likely to die driving on the way to the grocery store.
But you still have to make that drive. The alternative is not eating and dying from starvation.
You don't have to go out on a boat cruise.
You don't have to make that drive. Delivery exists now.
Google tells me 18 cruise ships have sunk in the last century
So your odds are pretty good, to be honest
and a cruise ship disaster is survivable and kino
Alexa, how many plane crashes have there been in the last century?

>left wing strawman of right wing beliefs
The modern right supports 'consumerism' because they believe economic freedom is tied to free expression. That is, you don't have someone telling you how to live, but rather you choose your own interests and hobbies.
They support "environmental destruction" (not really) because they believe excessive environmental protections pull up the ladder for young people and makes it too expensive and difficult to make use of natural resources the way past generations did; they're trying to ensure future generations can enjoy prosperity and not be reliant on the State.
They put GDP growth on a pedestal because a good economy has a strong correlation to social security and confidence. That is, people have the financial luxury to pursue their interests and desires and so they're not constantly living in fear of going broke. They feel like their country is strong and that they can believe that tomorrow is going to be better.

The modern right is the right wing of liberalism, a destructive progressive movement.
Optimistic individualism and hubris are two sides of the same coin
And existential nihilism leads to the death of nations. What's your point? I'd rather live in a society that has confidence in itself than live in one that hates itself.
Genuine traditional conservatism doesn't create anything, it just seeks to preserve what already exists. It is stagnation by definition, you can't have a society that exists in a permanent stasis; that's not how humanity works. And furthermore, what qualifies as the 'correct period' to focus on is also highly subjective. Some people think the 1980s was perfect, some think the 1950s, some think the 1870s, some think the 1300s, some think 200BC. It's not like any of those points were utopian either, some ways they were better and some ways they were worse. And the same can be said about the future; maybe in some ways it will be better and some ways it will be worse.

Why are leftists comfortable in poverty?
Seeing the massive divergence in outcome between the leftists I know and the conservatives as they age, its because the leftists don't have the ability or talent or drive to make anything of themselves, have already given up on life, and resent everyone who's more successful than they are. They're basically just waiting to die, so stagnation is okay by them.
Its been really hard to watch that happen to people I considered friends.
Divergence in outcome? You mean winning elections?
Easy to spend all your time politicking when you don't have a job because you're unemployable.
that's a nice cope for surrendering the entire political arena to your enemies, you can't replace principle and effective policy with "hard work" (workmaxxing to posture in front of other rightoids)
How do GOP slaves cope with the fact that their kids would rather live in inner cities than their lily-white suburbs?
Leftists are mostly young and afflicted with the climate hysteria that has been pushed on the youth for decades, this death cult of environmental hysteria gives young people an awfully negative view of the future and makes them believe that they must diminish their quality of life so that in some far off uncertain future the world will not end. It's all bullshit of course with an ulterior motive, but can seriously affect impressionable youth who feel responsible for the world being somehow "worse" even if the "worseness" is largely illusory, exaggerated or just flat out not a problem. So you will see a lot of young people with a withdrawn, hopeless mentality who have no drive to better themselves because they've already been convinced that the world is ending and that it's all their fault yet they are paradoxically not responsible and powerless to stop it. So they miss out on life, not taking the risks their boomer parents/grandparents took when they were young, not going places or trying new things or seeing the world because of self inflicted stagnation.
Let's be clear about this homosexual, for a period of time all of humanity decided "hubris" as a concept didn't exist, and we could do anything. This idiotic mindset would break itself against something eventually, it just happened to be the climate crisis
But it's just inherently disgusting and unsustainable. Clean energy and tech wouldn't fix it. That would just lead to more pollution, the same way more efficient coal consumption in the 1800s lead to more coal burning.

Do you really think every regulation proposal is the same cause they are not. There are rules that corporations will fight tooth and nail to kill.
If you find a way to digitize clean water then go ahead and let us all benefit from it.

The thing is, your entire ideology is predicated on the assumption that doomsday is in Two Weeks unless we enact turbo hippie communism RIGHT NOW. The problem being that your ilk have been saying this shit for 50 years, and every time your prediction fails to pass you just push the dates back. In the 1970s, they said we were gonna enter another ice age. In the 1980s, we were told that we were going to run out of oil by 1999. In the 90s, the ozone layer and ice caps were supposedly going to be completely gone by the 2010s. When I was growing up 30 years ago, I was told that my city was going to be underwater in 20 years. Sorry, but I just don't believe you anymore. You have cried wolf too many times.

What the frick is wrong with you
The idea is that you can visit and sightsee a bunch of coastal town/places while also enjoying the time you spend on getting there instead of just sitting around for hours and being bored while on transit. Basically a super fancy exclusive hotel that also moves around
That being said, I know some people go on cruises on those without really ever leaving it during the trip, which is something I don't really get

Are you much of a "scenic location"? kind of guy?

You have problems.
It’s all there is to do in this hell we call a multicultural society. When you realize the solution you’ll know that millions will die, because some genus just aren’t compatible living around anything else. It’s like playing King of the Hill on a CTF map, it doesn’t work and actual humans have reached their breaking point.
Like others have said, it's just a fancy hotel that moves around so you get to see more sights on your vacation. The funny thing is though is that surprisingly few of the safety regulations have been updated since the Titanic. Most of these ships still only have 2 watertight compartments so theoretically another Titanic situation is possible.
With that being said, these ships have vastly improved communications equipment, GPS tracking and much better lifeboats.
I would hate to go on one of these just because it looks like an amusement park for kids and I think being surrounded by screaming children would ruin much of the appeal of a nice sea voyage. If I had to go on a cruise I'd probably choose a Cunard.
Its safer than a plane usually. They're good when you're a kid or an adult who wants to cheat on your spouse for a week then forget all about it like summer camp for adults. Old people love em cause they party til they die on them blowing every dollar as a last frick you
When was the last time a cruise ship sank?
Its very rare.
Costa Concordia
The captain sailing into the shallow waters of a shore is not exactly "sinking".
Costa Concordia never sunk, it tipped over after hitting the seabed.
you do know people can leave this when it docks for island hopping right?
Cruise ships can be cheaper than amusement parks, because they can use immigrant labor and such.
modern cruise ships are engineered to be unsinkable
they're not captainproof tho
I would have a blast on one just trying to meet cougars and milfs who'd invite me to their rooms
Its food and amusement included frick fest that travel around various islands and destinations.
They make for a nice get away.
that's a cake
would be a good setting for a game

Thats a great idea. Could even have dlc where you travel to New places on the boat after main game of being on the boat. Too bad they don't make good dead rising games anymore
holy shit
it's like this ship's only purpose was for this idea to come to light
it's perfect
Was just about to post that.
Maybe zombie survival styled towards dead island? Or perhaps post apocalyptic management game where you get stuck on the sea with everyone on board, but the crew knows they can't dock without people getting infected?
Something like that.
Capcom already did this with Resident Evil.
Hat in Time already did that

If you make a boat big enough waves won't push you, just make even bigger boats.
my thoughts exactly

Looks like a Mario Party level.
I'm still waiting for a FPS to take place for the whole game on such a ship.

That go kart track in the bottom right is what's catching my eye
This thing is going to sink and kill everybody on board. Looking forward to the live coverage.
If you genuinely think that will ever happen, you're the biggest moron on this entire website.
Think about that for a second.
Think about how many morons are on this site at any given time. Just imagine how fricking stupid you have to be to be considered the biggest moron of them all.
I kneel, moron King.
but enough about you
That's exactly what they tried to tell the public during the construction of the Titanic.
Yes, but that was just sheer hubris backed by nothing. We know what the necessary safety features are now.
Do we? Given nobody has ever built or sailed a ship that size before.
Yes we should have better systems now, but never fully discount the unknown unknowns or the ability of hype/marketing etc to override safety concerns.
For all you know, some engineer involved in the project is screaming at their bosses about some major safety problem & they're completely ignoring it claiming it'll never be an issue. None of us will know until years after it's sunk, with you on board.
Well for one at least this ship has enough lifeboats
And how do you know that?
Is this actually a shill thread to try to get some NEET bucks?
Long as they don't skip on the 9v batteries and walky talkies, it'll be ok.
no need to blog post anon
Not likely. Cruise ships are even safer than modern airliners and are loaded with safety features, along with being on the ocean rather than 30,000 feet in the air, you have to be pretty moronic to die on a cruise ship.
It goes on too safe of routes and stays docked during shitty weather: it'll be fine from sinking. It will create a frickton of pollution and rapidly spread a lot of cold, flu or food poisoning bugs to ruin a lot of peoples' vacations, though.
It's the same reason why lots of communities will stop going to local businesses once the Wal-Mart shows up. They're getting their vacation desires met by the boat: why bother stepping off of it?
what's to stop all the passengers from going to the top floor, and running back and forth until the ship tips over?
absolutely nothing. It's their freedom of expression and banning passengers for doing so would be very unbased
COME ON BOYS LET'S TIP THIS COW
Ah man this cruise fricking sucks, let's all run back and forth on the top deck and frick up the crew's day.

It's called a deck. Levels on a ship are decks, not floors

What's to keep a large wave hitting its side from tipping it over?
One big difference between cruise ships and ocean liners is that cruise ships aren't really meant for heavy waters and only meant to coast around peacefully while an ocean liner has to make trips between two areas regardless of the weather and condition (not that ocean liners are a thing anymore anyways)
You underestimate how big these ships are, when you're aboard it feels completely stationary.

Cruises are depressing as frick if you don't have a wife/girlfriend to go with. I went with my parents a few years ago and I was so depressed seeing all the couples. I had my own room with a balcony and it was kind of comfy at night to just listen to the waves and stare out a the ocean with the moon in the sky.
It was a melancholy type of feel, still was mostly depressed the entire time.
gay
Not an argument
Why didn't you try to hit up a single chick? Cruises are stupid easy for this.
Unironically reminds me of some Phantasy Star Universe/Online 2 shit. In a good way.
Makes me want an MMO where the central hub/lobby is a cruise ship like this now.
this looks like jump force wtf
scifi urban environments in modern japanese media are incredibly generic
that thing looks ridiculously decadent.
frick me the music was so good sometimes in that game.
What happens if you fall from one of these? Assuming you survive hitting the water without any major injuries and someone sees you fall and reports it, would they be able to retrieve you, or are you just lost at sea?
Lifeboats are also used as passenger craft. So someone throws you the donut floaty thing and then the lifeboat is deployed to pick you up. If the waves are big and you cant swim to the ring you'd be fricked pretty quick tho i imagine.
I was on a cruise a month ago. Lifeboats look tiny from outside due to scale but they hold 150+.
Cruise ships are required to have MOB (Man Overboard) detection systems nowadays which would alert the event and track your body in the water. However, this technology is pretty new and due to the coof a lot of the checks for the presence and functionality of these systems weren't done by the coast guard, and they haven't yet bothered to pick up the slack. So it'd really depend on how lucky or unlucky you get.
pretty dependent on if someone sees you fall and how fast they report it
?si=SoWt3fPDvSUuyIny
This is more what happens if someone else falls off a ship, not what happens if (you) fall off
wtf is the person that fell off supposed to do in the half hour it takes for the ship to find you
can you do anything if you have your phone or will it not have service
There's actually a recent (few months ago) video that shows a guy jumping off the cruise ship as some dare or something. He's likely drunk, and the cruise doesn't seem to be in america, but it was at pitch black night and the cruise ship just went going, had no idea he went over, and he died.

tl;dr if it's dark and/or you don't get spotted and thrown some kind of high visibility float ASAP you're fricked, the ocean is a big place and it takes a cruise ship a long time to turn around to pick someone up
They go back for you though you probably were drunk and belly flopped on the 19th deck.
You wouldnt even know you were drowning before you were dead.
From this height, hitting water is like hitting concrete.

"Poseidon's Palace" would of been a way better name.
does it really have enough life boats to evac that many people?
I wouldn't mind going on a cruise
I absolutely mind paying the asking price for a cruise.
I tell you right now that a cruise ship is an alcoholic's paradise if you pay far out the ass for the "drink package" which is usually several thousand but it's ALL YOU CAN DRINK alcohol, like you can literally stay drunk and drink around the clock.
I promise you that alcoholics love it, can just ask for anything at the bar and you don't have to fork over money because it's already paid for by the drink package you purchased. I guess they don't expect people to consume $1000's worth of alcohol in a week, but they underestimate alcoholics who are drinking around the clock everyday. I'm sure some of you homosexuals would be doing that, just going to a bar at 10 AM or some shit.
Would have been fun when I was in my 20s, but even going to anime conventions now and staying buzzed around the clock is murder when I finally have to come down from it.
Drink packages is like $80/day, not thousands. It's basically drinking 8+ wienertails a day which are $8-$12 on a cruise ship. So yes, it's an alcoholics paradise because the booze is cheap, you're allowed to be drunk everywhere on the ship, and you don't have to drive or go anywhere. And in the morning you're drinking mimosas with your breakfast.
I don't know what cruise you went on but my parents paid like $1200 or some shit for a drink package for a one week cruise. It might vary from ship to ship or company I guess.
It's per person so $80/day would be be over $1000 on a 7 day cruise for 2 people. Personally I don't drink enough to get that value because even a full day of 8+ drinks I have to take the next day off drinking.
I wonder if alcoholics die on cruise ships from the excessive drinking? I bet they do, it's probably a common issue the cruise liners have to face, having drunks everywhere.
They have clinics and stuff, but yeah, I'm sure there have been plenty since it's common enough already.
Just throw them off the boat anon.
Not that I know of, it's just old people dying of old people things from what I understand whenever people die on cruise ships. If you're too drunk the bar will cut you off and security would stop you.
>$80/day
I can barely drink that much in a month without feeling like shit. I just don't get alkies man.
I stopped drinking because I don't want to die in my 60s...
>I'm sure some of you homosexuals would be doing that, just going to a bar at 10 AM or some shit.
Yes
>I'm sure some of you homosexuals would be doing that, just going to a bar at 10 AM or some shit.
it depends...
Realistically speaking, how easy would it be to sneak aboard or stow away on this ship?
i'm not sure you're going to find that sort of expertise on Ganker
It supposedly happens a lot
they have constant security, it's not enough just to get on board, you'd need to keep the charade up the whole trip, you'd have no room, you'd have no cards or documentation proving you should be there, which could be asked for at any moment, and you'd have none to present for food or drink.
You COULD and it does happen, but it's very difficult to get away with
>Day 6: they still haven't noticed I'm not a real security guard.
If you don't pay for a cabin with a balcony and window view then you're cucking yourself bad. It's pretty comfy kino to stand or sit on the balcony at night and watch the ocean while listening to music or doing whatever.
Jacking off well not really because you have neighboring balconies and people can easily see you and what you're doing on the balcony.
never understood why people like going on cruises. they are fricking disgusting and filled to the brim with screaming crying children.
The ocean terrifies me. It's deep, we still discover new species in it, waves can become as big as buildings... no to all of that, frick no.
Fancy meeting you here, friend.
Eat the bugs and sell your car, goyim.

I doubt it's 100% foolproof
If he had a balcony it's possible he fell overboard, especially if he was drunk and it was that late. Some anon said the MOB doesn't always detect/work, so if he was drunk and fell off his balcony into the water than he most likely drowned and sank to the bottom of the ocean.
A horrible way to die.
Doesn't seem that horrible, passed out drunk and no pain.
he probably was drunk and fell overboard and the detection system just sucked or had an error.
He never existed in the first place.
Maybe someone ate him
obviously a wizard did it
No, he raptured

Pretty much what everyone else said. MOB system is probably not that robust.

aren't cruise ships wild polluters? glad i gave up my plastic straws for this
i'm doing my part!!!!!!
A massive cruise liner like this would be a great setting for a zombie outbreak movie or video game. I can't believe it hasn't been done yet.
i think theres a bunch of movies about it, but from what i gather half of the movies are bout the cruise filled with zombies and the other half a totally not dead island riptide copy cat.
There was a gameboy Resident Evil about that. I don't remember exactly if it was a cruise ship but it did take place on a big boat.
>Nobody here rembers RE: Dead Aim
It's over....
And it would be realistic too considering that one cruise ship at the start of Covid, and all the US Navy ships.
One? I'm pretty sure there were many.
Some morons in Sydney let one dock, knowing it was filled with covid, then we wound up having the whole fricking country locked down because those dumb c**ts let 4k infected run rampant in our most populous city (at a time when we simply didn't know if it was going to be Ebola-level deadly with a long incubation period).
There's been two Resident Evil games set on cruise liners
Resident Evil Revelations, son
I feel it'd be a bit too loud for when I want to go to sleep. Reminds me more of Hunter X Hunter than videogames though
Surprisingly, in my experience, the ship was very quiet at night, or at least in my cabin/room, and I slept quite well.
College dormitories are way worse and louder.

this mentality is common among people with PTSD and childhood trauma just so you know, this idea of some impending doom if something is enjoyed or done boldly
Best Mario Kart track
This is just excessive. Nobody is going to experience even a fraction of everything that cruise has to offer in a single vacation.
That's hyperbole, there's not that many things and that cruise ship is 5+ day ship. They really only have a dozen or so major things to do, many of which can be experienced in an hour or two (ice skating, wake boarding, the zipline, etc). Plus it's about variety, they have something for everybody.
Yah know, if equity and inclusion wasn't the mantra of society right now I would have no issue going on a cruise. But we live in the era of multiracial shit-castles and I simply don't trust being on a vehicle like that with these kind of variables in play.
I've heard these cheap cruises are literal hell. As some anon put it, it's a bunch of poor people pretending to be rich. Imagine thousands of pic-related.
Most cruise people tend to agree that you should avoid the absolute cheapest ones and go a step up
>trapped onboard with wild animals
They should make a horror vidya about this.
Just make a Snakes on a Plane videogame.
>ost cruise people tend to agree that you should avoid the absolute cheapest ones and go a step up
This is true. Carnival caters to the poorer demographic and tends to have a lot more black people and mexicans. Black people actually love cruises, but they obviously won't go on the more expensive liners unless they got money obviously. The Liberty cruises are a bit more luxurious and upscaled. Carnival is shithole.
I can't speak for Disney Cruises, but I imagine it's full of screaming children and what not.
Been thinking of taking a cruise ship myself for the first time soon, know anything about European cruises? Any experiences?
Nah, I'm American. Sorry Euro fren.
>I can't speak for Disney Cruises, but I imagine it's full of screaming children and what not.
Nah, it's mostly childfree millennials
oh that's even worst
>screaming manchildren
FTFY
Disney cruises have way more entitled behavior than Carnival, Carnival was like a redneck drinking party if you've ever been to one, it was actually pretty chill, no Karens. Disney on the other hand, lots of Karens.
Have you seen how complicated it is to navigate through the Disney Wish? Of course you would start to feel super entitled that you have to travel all around the deck to get to another deck.

Guys, I was so disappointed when I went on my cruise ship a year and a half ago. I couldn't find any cute anime girls to frick or invite back to my room, or even any anime fans to befriend and explore the ship with.
I even wore anime t-shirts and jackets, also one night I walked around in my Demon Slayer Haori, I got the Tanjirou one, looked so cool. I was hoping it'd attract some girls who like anime, or maybe just some anime fans in general. I didn't get a SINGLE notice at all, it was depressing. I ended up having to spend the entire cruise just jerking off all night and crying. I guess anime fans don't go on cruise ships, kind of lame. Granted it was bunch of normalgays, so I suppose the odds were stacked against me from the start.
how serious are you
I'm actually being serious, I wanted to find some anime girls to frick and some anime fans in general to be friends with for the duration of the cruise. I didn't find any, and none approached me. I did wear anime stuff though.
oh okay
kinda reminds me of how i spent most of the off time playing kawata shoujo on my trip to orlando 11 years ago
>cruise ships stays on business yet cruise planes did not

>Bro bro bro get this... you can play tennis... BUT ON A SHIP!
>BRO like bro it's incredible like... you can DRUNK... but like ON A SHIP!
I don't see the appeal.
Because you're boring and probably antisocial. The appeal is that you get to enjoy all this luxury on the ship and the sea with your friends/family.
what's the difference between enoying those things on land as opposed on a ship?
The ship. The ocean. Being able to travel around and see various places with what is essentially a mobile hotel/resort.
It's $500 for five nights for a luxury hotel on the ocean. The buffet is a $30/plate Vegas buffer. The fine dining is $30/plate dinner. All you can eat. All included. Wanted to try lobster? It's on the cruise, it's included. Hate it? Get another entrée. The said hotel visits tropical destinations, it's free to get off the ship and visit those destinations. These ships also have entertainment acts, magic shows, Broadway style plays, casinos, etc. It's literally a vacation where you show up and everything is handled for you, almost like adult day camp.
hope it sinks with everyone aboard
I was really hoping that the cruise ship industry would die off after Covid since they're so terrible for the environment.
I did too but you sound like such a gay that now I'm glad they didn't and that it bothers you
VERY cool anon
>m-muh environment!!!!!!!!!
anon you are going to be dead and gone in a few short years, there is literally no reason not to enjoy yourself and condemn Zoomer homosexuals to hell, besides the fact that climate hysteria is largely exaggerated and cruise ships don't really pollute that much anyway, not as much as homosexual leftist journalists would have you believe, they just hate cruises because they hate fun and anything luxurious, largely because they are commies or socialist adjacent.
Black person I'm only 30 and I intend to live until at least 90 and yes I WILL still be clapping Latina cheeks. I believe in humanities potential and I won't just give up. Honestly you sound like a gay.
Humanity is fine, we're not going anywhere. How is a little pollution going to do anything to humanity's potential? It won't. We'll just figure it out bro. Stop worrying about climate doomer hysteria peddled by homosexuals who don't know what they're talking about. The world's not going to end.
>How is a little pollution going to do anything to humanity's potential?

Think of the massive delays its gonna cause if its not prevented. We may not get TES6 until we're 50.
We're not getting TES6 until we're 50 anyway. At least this way Todd will have some actual fricking inspiration for the next Fallout to be released in 2056.
nuclear war would be good for the environment
>That will really frick up the environment.
>I love the environment
>No, I lever leave my bug hive "city" that constantly pollutes the air
>But golly gee can you imagine all the poor trees if nukes flew? I mean who gives a frick about humans
Hilarious you posted this with a picture of one of the biggest environmental disasters to ever be created.
thumbnail looks like a SMRPG map
That ship is pretty ugly design-wise.
Me on the left.
That's pretty cool
>Shrines in Ghost of Tsushima
It looks like a cool place to live, but then you remember hurricanes exist.
The rock looks really porous too. It's pretty to look at but that thing is going to suffer badly from coastal erosion.
Frick I can't unsee.
Pure Country
Absolutely cursed, the second you step foot on that island you'll be stuck in a temporal loop where you can never leave it. But it's still kino and S0/L
Average chest location in Genshin.
literally fricking made in abyss
But when you go down there it just smells like rotten eggs and no naked children
isn't this in PUBG?

How viable is to get away with murder in these cruisers? Throw away the body to the ocean? Just curious...
Are these places where you can sail on huge sail ships instead? Like replicas of 17th century ships maybe... would be more interesting in my opinion.
>Like replicas of 17th century ships maybe
you really want to sleep in a hammock surrounded by a bunch of stinky old men for a few months?
Aye Captain, I do.
And sing sea shanties with the boys all day? Hell yeah.
what about sodomy
>no murder mystery games set on a Titanic style ocean liner.
Cosy kino
Do they have those group murder mystery events that you get to listen to and try to solve on cruises? Always wanted to experience one. t. poirot fan
Ace attorney has some cases on boats.
Have you played 999?
If Ganker got turned into a cruise ship and every anon here was on board, what would it be like?
a smelly situation
It would look like a ghost ship because everyone would be inside their rooms all day because they're too afraid of other people
Just lots of smelly, angry young men never leaving their compartments, shit everywhere and screaming at all hours of the night. Jannies would be working overtime with no rest (for free) mopping up the cum puddles, shit bombs and raped femboys in the lower decks. At least 2 murders a day and the ship cannot legally enter port.
The buffet would be emptied out within an hour of it opening.
i'd find the /tg/ cross posters and go start a DnD game. I've always had a dream of going on a cruise with some bros to marathon a short campaign for the duration of the cruise. We'd just claim a table and the buffet and camp out there for like 12 hours a day.
actually a great idea, I went on a cruise once where I spent a bunch of free time writing a campaign setting for my group and it's an awesome headspace for that kind of thing
I'm so glad I visited Myanmar before the shit show that's going on right now.
That waterslide looks really fun. I feel sad for you misanthropic freaks who see this ship and feel negative emotions.
Think about what kind of men play videogames and post on Ganker. Now think about what they were like when they were children. What kind of negative experiences and trauma they had that shaped them into this emotionally crippled, pathologically negative, socially moronic mess. Scared of the world, hiding away in virtual playgrounds, pessimistic to their rotten core and generally spiteful of the world and their fellow man. With this in mind nothing in this thread should surprise you.
you're personally attached to an embodiment of excess
you're making up scenarios in your head to be angry about like a hardcore Gankercel
I see the human trafficking business is booming.
who needs 40 bowling alleys on a ship?
Me.
In reality, the autistic homosexuals on the Ganker ocean liner would be too picky to try new things, so there would be tonnes of untouched food and one or two common foods completely gone. The lobster would be untouched or taken away to be used as a fleshlight. Despite their work, the janitors still have to microwave their hot pockets in the staff room. The Gooner residents are nonstop rutting in massive fetishistic orgies so the refreshments, high calories foods, and alcohol runs out fast in order to fuel their nightlong carnal sexfests. There are at least 2 obese neckbeards who cannot physically get to the higher decks or fit through the stairwell so they remain below. The gacha addicts are occupying the casino 24/7 even though the dealers run out of money days ago and there just betting with nothing. The black guys on board have formed a gang of men that exclusively play fighting games and hoard the seasoned salt. The dickyposters have taken the children to the bottom deck never to be seen again.
What is life like aboard the S.S. Consoomer?
That's so cool
How comfy would it be to live here?
Not very, it's a very touristy area with cafes and giftshops and whatnot. Probably constantly packed with chink tourists year-round too.
>t. been there twice
This would be an exelent map to make a thief or the dark mod fan mission...
Cheeky
WE-A GAAN-NO
>everyone looks at this ship and sees a zombie game
>I see a fricked up deep see horror game which turns the passengers into body horror dead space monsters
multiplayer shooter map IRL
Sounds kinda cool, honestly.
>never touch the ground again for the rest of your life
Since it wouldn't be that long I think that's the point.
So what's the reason for going on a cruise ship like this instead of just going to a on-land resort? Is it just for the novelty of "resort, but on a boat", or is there more to it than that? This just looks, to me, like going to a luxury resort, but with the added danger of drowning in the event of a catastrophe.
>a catastrophe
Sounds like an absolute chad way to go.
depending on the trip, some go to a bunch of locations. The Alaska cruises take you to various towns and some locations the cruise lines maintain.
Cruise ship tourists ask some of the dumbest questions I have ever heard.
>what's the reason for having fun and trying new things
anon...
I understand what he's saying, though. I never cared about cruises because they always felt too restrictive to me. I like being free to go where I want and do what I want when I want.
There isn't one. It's just an amusement park on the water. They exist as a cheap "vacation" for poor people and moronic boomers who don't know any better. Just fly to somewhere interesting and get a taste of different cultures. You'll have a much better then time then a floating monument to everything wrong with humanity.
>t. Been on 8 cruises and regretted it each time
>people are having fun... drinking... partying... laughing... Black personman get my pipe, I cannot handle this eldritch horror, millions must die
You can do that anywhere
>Game is only good when high/with friends
I just like being drunk on a huge boat and listening to the sound of a crowd.
I'm a simple man.
Why go on so many of them if you don't like the experience?
Family invites me and I didn't want to say no since I don't see them very often.
Daily reminder cruise ships are for boomers but there's a catch.
>high chance of wine aunts and MILFs who haven't seen any action in ages
>the crew and entertainers will never frick you unless you're already a gigachad
Lord I pray everyday that all boomers are annhilated.
ITT: Third worlders try and wrap their mind around American excess that they've enjoyed for the last 70 years
Implying
Thirdies just want to live this for themselves
It's regretful whites and like, thirdie elites posting in here, who have known excess themselves
I bet the people defending this shit are fatties who couldn't have afforded cruises and vacations in the 80s
I really want to go to the top level and piss over the side railing.
The only thing I dislike about cruises is when the ship stops in an American port like St. Thomas, even for a day, everybody has to wake up at 6am for customs. I'm on fricking vacation bro, leave me alone.
Yep you need a visa even if you're just transferring flights in the US. This is why you don't see a LHR > ATL > NRT route.
>NRT
Showering there on a layover was the fricking shit. I wish every airport had one.
>hub city has a limited time event
Is that like a blue light sale at KMart?
Ugly-ass ship
Look fun
Might book it for my family holiday if they available here
I fricking hate this shit. Resources wasted for some shitty voyage just so some shitheads can make money.
lmao cry harder, everything that anyone ever does is wasted resources just trying to pass their genes on
No, that's called investment and sensibility
Eating yourself obese and dragging your sorry carcass onto a floating circus with the other clowns, that's a waste of resources
>p-people are clowns for having fun and enjoying life!!!!!!!!!
who hurt you anon? why are you like this?
People are clowns for being shallow and lacking self-awareness
meaningless babble, you are insecure and hyper self-conscious, uncomfortable in your own skin, and feel immense jealous hatred when you see people being carefree or happy because it reminds you of what you cannot have.
One symptom of lacking self-awareness is becoming aggressively defensive when called out on it
Deep down you know that partying fat poors are repulsive. I'm not the one coping
sure bro, I still think you're just a boring killjoy who got ignored a lot as a kid and are eternally bitter
>people are shallow... for enjoying food, travel and entertainment
>people lack self awareness... for not being ashamed of enjoying nice things and luxury
yeah I'm thinking you're just a miserable homosexual
>resources wasted
You malthusean reddit tards are beyond moronic. What does this even mean? You think the world is running out of steel?
Isn't summer vacation over for you kids? Don't you have homework to do?
looks like a 90s select stage screen
>open thread about cruise ship
>full of coping poorgays with sour grapes
I've been on a cruise kek
>NOOOOO YOURE A HYPOCRITE
not my problem
Cruises in the Americas are like $300-$700 for a week.
You cannot find better travel deals than that, hotel costs alone can be more than that for how long the cruises are and it includes food, drinks, and travel.
>has a better open world than games made within the past few years
shame it starts with a stupid instant fail forced stealth section
>great map
>abhorrent story
At least I got to shoot up the Castro district and Hashbury
Imagine a giant LAN party ship with its own Ganker hosted on it. What would we play and shitpost about?
>What would we play
We hate video games
>and shitpost about
Black folk and trannies
looks terrible
what's the appeal of doing a cruise vacation instead of booking a hotel at a nice beach?
That thing is proof that the world needs more piracy.
The most expensive suite is 70k for a week
>paying hundreds, if not thousands, just for the torment of being surrounded by the constant, shrill, agonizing tone of screaming children with zero escape
>this is a vacation somehow
Stop going to Disney cruises then
...or there should just be more parks and attractions that are 18+ only. A permanent adult swim, if you will.
Its called Vegas.
Vegas turned into Disney World in the 90s
They tried to appeal to families for a decade or two, but they've moved away from that in recent years.
Yeah now it's all drug dealers and homeless and Chinese tourists
you're childless arent you?
Even as a child myself, I never understood why other children would shriek as if they were literally being killed. Having children myself is suddenly supposed to make it music to my ears?
youre just digging a deeper hole for yourself here anon, its painfully obvious how autistic you are
>its
What about the "painfully obvious how autistic you are" that is in Anon's possession?
How much worse would it have been if I got all bashful and defensive just because I actually don't have children? I'd rather own it, just like how I own the fact that I don't like hearing high-pitched screaming. I don't really see what's so odd about that.
thank god you'll never reproduce
Its the only way they knew how to communicate when infants/toddlers, and it takes years to break the habit.
the idea of over two thousand people toiling in the belly of that hulk is crazy. rarely seeing the sun or fresh air until your contract is up. thousands of meals a day, thousands of linens to be washed.
I have a buddy who started working on a cruise and he loves it, he used to own a bar before.
Being that high, isn't there a risk of it tipping over?
I know this sounds awful but some massive tragedy taking place on it would make great news. Would love to keep track of threads while it's going down.
You should have been here during Costa Concordia.
Fricking trip, man.
I saw a video clip of this rich dude on his private plane and he's flying through the air and has 3 naked chicks with him just sitting there while he grabs their breasts and stuff. man I wish I was an oil prince.
why do people hate fun?
sour grapes/crab in the bucket/guilt complexes, they believe that they are "bad" or "shameful" or "greedy" for having fun and so refuse to allow themselves to live, sad and many such cases
there's just something really neat with how mankind can overcome the adversities of nature and create a mobile luxury cruiseship filled with various amenities and rides
Only for pathologically miserable homosexuals with no sense of fun or joy to b***h and moan about these marvels of engineering and to loudly decry them as "shameful" on account of their Judeo-Christian guilt complex and aversion to anything enjoyable.
I hope it sinks
Amazing how you can post fricking anything here, and have you morons posting shit like this.
Go wash your axe wound
>bringing up trannies unprompted
You are a deeply disturbed person. Seek mental help.
My college’s football stadium looks like a Roman colosseum
Cruise ships are completely impractical. They require the planning and infrastructure of a small city. You could just go to the actual Vegas instead of gambling on a boat.
But the sea calls to me.
You don't do anything ocean like in it though. It's basically just Vegas on a boat.
Life is completely impractical. Why not end it all already?
>All these zoomers scared of a fricking cruise ship
they feel threatened by wealth, prosperity, risk or displays of luxury.
Yeah bro your tard truck is super intimidating too
>displays of luxury
>Meet the Sky Cruise, a gigantic flying resort that was conceived by Tony Holmsten about 11 years ago and was recently animated by Hashem Al-Ghaili. The aircraft is equal parts spaceship and ocean liner, and it comes with just about every amenity you could imagine. Its ginormous size can accommodate more than 5,000 guests, who would arrive on board via commercial or private plane (that’s right—jumbo jets would land on top of the Sky Cruise).
>The aircraft is designed to use nuclear energy, which means it would be able to stay afloat—without landing—for several years. Twenty electric engines would be powered by nuclear energy, with a small nuclear reactor on board using highly controlled fusion reaction to provide unlimited energy.
Am I the only one who likes cruise ships because I get to be near the ocean? For those who don't know how or can't afford paying for a boat and a spot at the marina, cruise ships are a good way to see the seas.
what is the solo cruise experience like?
>thread
>Leftists: YOU CAN'T JUST DRIVE A CAR NOOOOOOOOOOO THAT'S WASTEFUL
>Also leftists itt: Heh, you're just mad you aren't on a gas-guzzling cruise
Why do you make up people in your head and then argue with them?
But that's happening itt
all me btw
>r*ghtoids: hurr durr I'm a fricking moron, look at all these extra chromosomes I'm bringing to the discussion
>also rightoids itt: hurr durr I'm a waste of space and a disappointment to my parents, if only I wasn't fricking moronic
It was never about the environment was it
I've posted real evidence in this thread and you gays keep accusing me of talking about supporting immigration or climate shit that I never mentioned. Go frick yourself.
You posted flimsy pretexts for the return of neo-feudalism
I hope you remember fondly of your own of neo feudalists when the corporate kings give you your daily bug rations in the future.
unironically a deadriisng game there would be fricking sick
