What will living spaces be good for? For example, the living module option on the Retaliator bomber. Is there a game mechanic behind them?asked by Scubi

Well, yeah.We've already mentioned it was one of the stretch goals that if you have a living space, a bunk bed, on a ship that will be a way for you, when you're not in combat and all the rest of the stuff, to save the game without having to be on a planet. So that's really a pretty big thing because the living space is like your save point so to speak. So there you go: I think that's actually a pretty big game aspect. And they're kind of cool.And we are going to do some level of very, very, very light roleplaying: so one of the reasons why Star Citizen captures the imagination and you really feel like you are part of the world is we spend the attention and the time to put the little details in there. You're in the ship and it's not just you sitting in the cockpit: you can walk around it an "oh, here's where I'm going to sleep; here's where I have my meals; here's where I get a cup of coffee; oh, here's where I take a shower; here's where I can go to the toilet". So it's, not that we want to say "oh you have to eat every eight hours" or anything like that but there should be some stuff where you could get a cup of coffee or you could get some food and maybe there's some very small boost or something; there'd be a reason to do that kind of stuff, just to use it, to make you feel like you are part of it. Not to the extent of a DayZ kind of thing but I feel like we want a little bit of light use roleplaying because I think it would be kind of cool. You don't take a shower for a month and then people start to not want to talk to you much: that kind of thing. I think I've mentioned that before but that's all good reasons for the living areas.
