Oh you never saw the threads before the millionaire was patched...Holy crap that's bad... I could be a the most powerful being in the universe and still get fucked over by a no name criminal on the streets because the events are programed for you to lose every time. Wow...
Not all of the events are like that though. There's quite a fair bit of them that are good so I believe it evens out, plus as I said, you can just reload and disable any bullshit event that you come across in the config.
The main author for the game accepted pretty much all the events that people submitted for a while, which is why things are the way they are, and 9/10 of the events when you explore end in rape if you send a girl.
