Starbound will not be good until the gaming community ends your life

All the thought and effort in the world doesn't make a good game if your thoughts are poo poo. Applying effort to that poo poo you thought up just ruptures your colon.

MWO hasn't improved though so I don't know what you're getting at with that?

So, what exactly do fossils do..?

from the Starbounder page posted:

Fossils are the remains of long dead creatures scattered throughout Starbounds universe. They’re extremely valuable, very rare and very difficult to dig up. You’ll need special tools to clear the dirt and unearth a fossil. Removing the wrong piece of dirt could cause the fossil to crumble into dust. Successfully removed fossils can be placed as trophies, some have very special properties and perhaps some of these long dead creatures can even be revived

What this tells me is "Dinosaur pets", but it also tells me "but if you make one mistake you're hosed and gently caress you anyway"

Holy gently caress, I remember being really interested in the idea of fossils years ago.

And they're just now implementing them?!

They ran out of money already, London rent is expensive as gently caress. They need money for the office, a cost of living increase for all their staff, it all adds up!

Coming soon: A kickstarter to finish Starbound.

They said they got enough money to last for years, so it would be hilarious if this was the case.

I did go to the page on my phone and just got the normal homepage. The warning it was an offline page was auto hidden by one of the apps I have. Ease your toxic shitposting.

Probably somewhere between realizing they already made most of their money and realizing its easier to keep milking an early access cow/what do they do with their lives after years of starbound?

If memory serves they got at least $2,000,000 which doesn't exactly exchange favorably into pounds. It's also really, really easy to burn through that if you budget it wrong or spend stupidly. Such as, you know, moving the entire team to one of the world's most expensive cities.
