Fan Fiction Friday! https://www.revivalgame.com/blog/46-weekly-blog-update-45-across-the-universe-squote:This week on Great Minds of Theleston, we follow up on Snipehunter’s recent Planeswalking Update with a Day in the Life of someone who has chosen the difficult path of the planeswalker as a primary profession. One who regularly sees things that would drive ordinary people to madness and takes it in stride. Chilling. Concept art. The Cathedral of Nodens at Crowns Rock A WIP statue in the library

This week was also the launch of the $5 wall/floor upgrade kits. Make your house look like you aren't a slovenly bum who hasn't done any basic maintenance in 50 years! Official gallery here: https://imgur.com/a/o010H One of the suckers noticed that the upgrade kits don't affect the ceilings in cottages, so you still have holes in your roof like it's some abandoned crapshack. LOL. Bro, do you even thatch?

Rough Lobster posted:Have they released anything OTHER than screen shots of the inside of houses? Yes. If you are a sucker who bought a $36-$444 house, you can now log into the offline client and walk around your house, taking your own screenshots or video of the inside of your house. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cf1Dmec5YM8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odsEi9gF91Q Don't bother downloading the client yourself though, you can only see properties you own. Since it is an offline client and consumes no server resources a couple people have floated the idea a sort of realty walkthrough that would let you see unsold properties, or let you see one of each version of house for sale, to help customers choose. So far they haven't so much as commented on that idea. From the video the client looks pretty jenky and unoptimised, so they probably don't want people who aren't committed to get the idea that's the game.

One of the devs made an interesting post about character stats yesterday. Not very funny though. https://www.revivalgame.com/forum#/discussion/875/skills-abilities-and-professions quote:Here's how the RPG stuff works in Revival: 200 skills, and each character can master at most 2 or 3, lol.

How are they going to be cagey around Skills and Abilities after launch. Don't people need to know about those, to, you know, play the game?

oTHi posted:How are they going to be cagey around Skills and Abilities after launch. Don't people need to know about those, to, you know, play the game? I don't see why you'd need skills to play Medieval Housing Simulator. Seriously though, I think they are talking about a few skills being hidden until they are discovered. Everyone knows carpentry is a skill, so even without help anyone can get some wood and some tools and start fooling around trying to figure out carpentry. Other skills may be unknown, so you can't even start trying to learn them unless you can find someone or something to teach you. For example, while exploring a dusty old ruin you discover the dread Cheesonomicon. Reading the uncanny tome gives knowledge of cheese making (an art lost for centuries in post-apocalyptic thelston). It also includes several starting recipes and warns against the dangers of cheesegaunts. *ding* You now have 10 points in Cheese Making, a skill you had no idea existed. Others can learn Cheese Making is a skill either because you teach them or from studying your finished cheeses, but without reading the dread Cheesonmicon themselves they won't get that 10 point boost or all your recipes. Maybe Monterrey Jack is a starting recipe anyone can try, but they'll have to figure out Pepper Jack themselves. Hidden skills will probably be a bit more arcane than cheese tho.

I don't know how to put this, but I like that pie in the sky game projects like these exist, because some of the ideas in them make me go "man thatd be cool" and hopefully someone who actually has resources and skill can look at the projects take maybe one really cool idea and implement it in a game which will exist and be fun to play.

Eh, I don't. It just sets up unrealistic expectations and makes people believe in bullshit, unless they get really crushed in which case they doubt that anybody could later pull off what was bullshit before. I mean even if you had the billion dollars to invest that it would cost to do all that, it still probably wouldn't be that great of a game. Its a mess of design. Its too big. You'd be better off breaking that into 200 different individual games that do one thing really well than one god-game that does EVERYTHING.

Yeah, the description of the whale hunt sounds pretty fun, and while there is no way in hell any of that will ever happen in this game, if someone decided to make just that game it could be great. Think of how fantastic a whaling game could be if that was all they were trying to do?

You do understand that these people worked on star citizen and learned Chris Roberts lesson and are literally just copying his business model but "Middle Ages and magic" instead of "space life" right? Promise everything you can possibly imagine, every dream will come true, buy our ships, err -houses- now to pledge benefit great development best game all fantasies reality soon! It's literally a scam, promise people the best game they can possibly think of, get their money, write yourself checks, let them whine in two years when it doesn't live up to their wildest dreams- money's all spent, TOS says no refunds. This is literally people copying star citizen. Grimy lovely people, if you've seen their videos.

Might get some fans in a year or two, if all goes well. It's hard to get too worked up over design documents and dev fan fiction. I was sad when CCP's World of Darkness MMO was finally shitcanned, so I'd be really excited if this game had any . . . game. Once the character creator and the first town exist it might be worth it, but it's hard to justify buying into a beta that involves walking around an empty house. Especially when the cheapest buy in is a $40 crap shack. Look at that thing. At least star citizen's imaginary spaceships are shiny. It's harder to pin your hopes and dreams on a dilapidated hovel.

Weekly Blog Update #46: In The Shadowsquote:This week the team has been crazy busy trying to get the house decoration tools up and running. It’s a significant challenge that the engineers are really hacking away at. On top of that, all the items in the prop kits are getting IDs and properties. We tried to get this done this week, but were unable due to some more lingering issues that are taking longer than expected. I wonder if all that is going to be server or client based? Client based is prone to abuse, but server based seems like it would be a lot of load to be checking what every single character (PC and NPC) is seeing every second.
