Well.. we are all on SA aren't we? This forum serves as our sort of autism chariot to a degree.

Hey at least that multiplayer Harvest Moon game just landed on Steam (in "coming soon!" form). The 'fish is just publishing it, so I have a little hope.

From the ground up? Seems like a waste of time to fix a few issues.

Make a decent plan. Re-implement into the framework already made.

hahaha, Tiy just tweeted a 'mini update' showing the smelter now doing one bar at a time instead of batch smelting. Because that's the only insane thing left for them to do; start rolling back quality of life improvements.

I want to say I'm not surprised by this, but I am. I'm the retard who can't stop putting his hand on the stove because this time, THIS TIME it might not mean a trip to the ER for you and your poor, world-weary parents. Tiy somehow keeps finding new ways to astonish me with bad decisions that usurp the place of actually decent, good things that were already in place and perfectly effective. I'm boggling at this not because of what it is (a relatively minor but aggravating change that had absolutely no precedence), but because of what it represents. There's no benefit to doing it this way, but he's dead set on doing it anyway because I guess Super Ghosts and Goblins had tedious nonsensical progress gating and an abundance of mostly-useless crafting stations(???)

The hosed up part is that in the midst of this stream of garbage ideas and dullard reddit reasoning there are tiny glimpses of the game that could be, like the overhauled specials on guns and weapons, unique monsters, and the colony system. And then he hits us with poo poo like that.

I don't understand, but I can comfort myself by the fact that Tiy doesn't either.

...that's not what's happening? Stardew Valley is only being published via Chucklefish and not actually developed by the company. Just like Risk of Rain was published by Chucklefish.

Just... what? What? Chucklefish Games, what is your minimum viable product on Starbound? What does that look like? I can only assume the game is just some sort of dev playground now where they add and remove things at will with no clear roadmap of where it's all going. And please stop listening to literal or figurative children who have nearly unlimited free time to spend on pointless bullshit.

Welp, gently caress YOU Chucklefucks.

I was giving the latest build another shot, but gently caress it. Mining with the slow-rear end tedious matter manipulator that's now a royal PITA to upgrade and which now primarily depends on random drops/chests and semi-rare resources (diamonds) didn't already take long enough?

Even odds they're applying this to all batch crafting. That'll be super fun every time I run out of platforms, torches and bandages and want to craft another batch of 200 each.

I'm a rube for wasting time trying it again after all the poo poo changes since the EA release.

Because of how many people think tedium = immersion = I'm hardcore at videogames

See also, everyone who thinks a New Vegas style hardcore mode would add "Immersion" to Fallout 4, when you can place a slave farm+personal doctor every 200 feet that also churns out hundreds of pure water every time you visit.

Oh lordy lord. Buggy as gently caress Fallout 4 settlements have better QoL than starbound :lol: I've been unable to get tatos to be deposited into my workbench (though the rest of my food works) all game but at least I can still hand pick 20 of them every time I swing by the homestead instead of hand watering it multiple times and waiting in person for it to grow.
