The only thing we ever see in or coming from the offworld colonies are cloned slaves. The actual people are just off camera.

The game is very much a walking sim/novel type game, I was kinda disappointed since I was expecting a more action rpg but it’s very good

I kinda wish it had had no walking segments at all and you spent 100% of the time in the car. allow the car to directly pick up collectibles with some gadget (this would also create a reason to explore the rest of the city volume) and when you park just have a cutscene or dialog bit in which the quest is resolved

incredibly pretty though, as long as you don't zoom in on the humans

sounds very realistic, you don't really want to zoom in too much on most people irl either

Totally unrelated

I’m assuming Jeremy Hammond has been silent since he got out of prison because he’s on some sort of parole. I wonder what he has to say getting out of prison almost a decade later to see just how much more dystopian tech has gotten.

Super weird that he used to be friends with weev given how they both had similar experiences and doubled down in opposite ways

The devs are apparently building a slightly more 'game' game into the Nivalis cityscape they have created, seems like a good idea not to let it go to waste.

https://www.ign.com/articles/cloudpunk-cyberpunk-life-sim-nivalis

quote:

Cloudpunk developer ION Lands has announced a new game, a cyberpunk life sim called Nivalis.

Nivalis already has a Steam page, which contains several screenshots of the game, showing off a similar aesthetic to Cloudpunk. The game is described as a "unique slice-of-life sim with realistic weather simulation and night and day cycles"

As well as being the name of the game, Nivalis is also the name of the cyberpunk city you'll live and build up a career in. This is, as fans will know, the same city in which Cloudpunk takes place.

"You’ve got to start small: a food stall, a noodle stand, a stim store. Build your way up to a bar, a restaurant, or even a nightclub," the game's description reads. "Eventually, you’ll own all the nightlife in Nivalis. You’ll own the night!

As well as managing businesses, Nivalis players will meet "strange and diverse characters" and "experience the danger and wonder of this cyberpunk voxel city". Buying and growing ingredients, cooking and making cocktails, home decoration and fishing are all mentioned on the Steam page. As for how you'll get around Nivalis, the Steam page mentions travelling on foot as well as driving a "flying HOVA through realistically simulated traffic".

Straight up every time a company pulls the "Use the new X - Powered by Watson!" I wonder 1) how much the IBM licensing costs 2) how many dev hours it took to integrate with it for a marketing feature 3) what the code paths look like to issue an API request to Watson and then summarily dispose it because it's probably loving trash.
