if the game wasn't as moddable as it is it would be entirely dead in the water by now instead of there being people waiting on the sidelines for the day when they can maybe mod it into something not-poo poo without their mods breaking instantly

Do you still power your spaceship with a wood furnace in this game

That was too easy so they removed it.

Now you have to dig to the center of the starting world for core crystals to be able to leave the planet.

Then you fight through a predesigned dungeon and boss to unlock your FTL.

Then you go to the moon with an upgraded matter manipulator to get fuel for your FTL, and finally leave your starting system.

You could tell that starbound devs never made railway paths because starbound development is incapable of being on track.

Dude, this is Starbound. However good it looks will definitely be outweighed by how much it will cost to build.

Those were in the works a long, long time ago, and "has rails" doesn't really mean "copying bioshock infinite". Unless we're gonna say that terraria is copying dwarf fortress because it has minecarts or something.

I don't know what the gently caress they are doing because the game seems basically the exact same now as when it was initially put on Steam, and there were like week one mods that have added more interesting and cool content than I've seen

like there were cool biome mods with awesome as gently caress planets and stuff like that

if a modder could add all kinds of cool biomes and weapons and races and stuff, why cant a full time team of people do that

i mean poo poo some of the custom races are just straight up better than the 'actual' races in the game, same with the weapons and biomes and poo poo

they've been doing bullshit missions that no one cares about bc they don't understand that doing straightforward basic platformer levels where you can't build or destroy things is not what people want to do in a sandbox minecraft/terraria-like game

we can do heavy programming of these missions that people will speed through

or we can add lots of cool items and biomes and races and poo poo

like if modders can whip up some cool biomes with the tools they have in no time at all, i cant imagine it would be that tough for the devs to do
