Imagine you meet an amazing, beautiful woman and you fall in love and get engaged and have the best sex ever (I know you're all virgins but try) and everything is fantastic for a few months but then she shaves her head and gets plastic surgery to look like a horse and also has a horse cock attached. Whenever you try to talk to her/him/it about where the relationship is going she gets angry and slaps you like a bitch and chains you to a soggy bed in the basement and shits on your chest. You try to cancel the wedding plans but she beats you up and threatens to trample your friends and family so all you can do is sit and cry in the basement and masturbate like I am doing right now because this is so hot.

That's TiyStarBound.

Imagine if a smelly hobo charged you fifteen dollars for a lifetime pass to fondle the breasts of a mannequin he found in a Macy's dumpster and says it's only going to get better from here. Over the course of a few months he wraps 4 belts around the waist jrpg-style and sticks a Detroit Tigers baseball cap on the neck stump but then he retreats into the hobo palace he bought with all his fondle profits and is never heard from again.

That's tiy and starbound.

You should take some ideas from Tropico, like adding craftable rum breweries with slave labour from the planet you are on. Also instead of side scrolling make the game isometric.

Obviously you want to keep some elements of the currenct version so you could have, like, beach balls and paper planes that you buy to make your people happy.

Well, I've seen a lot of stuff about the new tweaks to combat and food and enemies. But not a whole lot of stuff about actually making it any easier to survive, or heal yourself compared to current stable. Let alone a sense of progression beyond "Well, my gear is a new tier".

While this is highly opinion based, I am very down on the dev notes statements regarding "You will die in 3 hits to +1 enemies, forever." Which like old stable makes you forever have to work your way up to kind of competent, then back to worrying about getting one shot by stronger night monsters (or buffed by depth ones now) the second you step into a new biome, which you have to, because that's where the next tier ore is.

Similarly, expectations of weapons effectiveness. "Can kill 2 to 2.5 Even tier enemies with a gun before running out of energy, if you do not miss much that is. Super staff can kill ONE even tier enemy". Same looping treadmill feeling. The game loves to throw muptiple pairs of enemies at you as well, and the last thing I heard about guns was playing around with NERFING one handed ones because one handed guns meant you got to carry a flashlight in dark dungeons, and two of them was OP (If guns drain energy to the point you can only kill two enemies, wouldn't two guns drain twice as much energy? Or does it not work that way).

Making bandages heal larger amounts as mentioned in the past, step in the right direction. Adding a cooldown to that, AND food feels otherwise because constantly shoveling banana breads down my throat every other hit, while wearing impervium armor (or spending every waking moment with out max HP munching on banages) was just standard in old stable. Being able to eat some potato based recipie for a temporary +20 health (an example given in recent dev blogs) would likely not even help you survive a single extra hit as things are in nightly.

There SO MANY COOL THINGS. QoL features, new mechanics, assorted other cool things that have me looking forward to stable still. But combat/survivability "progression" was my one big problem with old stable, and current nightly. And every combat update or dev blog intention I hear about is all about adding new features or difficulty with no way to actually make you IMPROVE in a permanent sense except "Well, now that you have the very best gear for this tier, THIS tier won't swiftly murder you."

Oh right. Also the painful implications of not being able to wear armor on the Moon, because you will need the snow gear to survive the cold, as you dig up your FTL drive ores. (Bundling environment upgrades into each higher tier of armor past that is cool though).

My more optimistic expectations, is that when we FINALLY hit next stable (whenever the hell that is), beta input from a game more that isn't wiped constantly and not intended to just shortcut with dev commands should helpfully shake out long term survivability stuff. Well, if you can hear it between the two extremes of "SA shitpost thread" and "Official board posters who think you can do no wrong and not wanting to drop ore on death means you are a filthy casual who wants the game to play itself for you".

EDIT: Or the people who's answer to everything is "Shut up and learn to mod that then".

I asked for a refund I EXPLAINED IN CLEAR DETAIL THAT I NO LONGER HAVE THE PAYPAL ACCOUNT! I asked if I could get store credit they assured me they could do so. Well they refunded the money to the paypal account anyway which I do not have access too and that person now has 60$ for free. They wrote me a email pretty much stating OH WELL contact paypal.....why? I am contacting you guys since you made the mistake not me I clearly over and over even called and stated this, I even said if you had to refund the paypal account and could not give store credit just leave the pre-order that I had....yet they still refunded to a account that I do not own and that person that owns it is no longer available. I will never ever purchase from you again and I will buy my things from G2A from now on! I was a loyal customer and you lost my business for life, you have way to much competition on there to just ignore and neglect your consumers. I buy a ton of games since I am a streamer and I will publicy denounce you in every broadcast just to make sure you do not get any business from my viewers.
