The bow always took energy! It was just some trivially small amount of energy that typically regenerated before you fired a second shot. Not sure if it's changed in a recent patch or if it just scales up in higher tiers or something.

Seriously though, most of the complaints would go away if you could: 1) Mine twice (or three, or five times...) as fast as you currently do 2) Mine 4x4 instead of 3x3 since the character is four blocks tall 3) Have combat actually be balanced so it isn't rocket tag depending on which side outlevels the other I mean the game would still be sparse with a lot of unnecessarily tedious grindy bullshit, but the first two at least are completely trivial changes done by modders within the first week and there's really no excuse for things to be this awkward almost a year out from retail release.

E-Tank posted:No, You can buy and pre-purchase Starbound. You just gain access to the alpha as a bonus. It doesn't matter if they call it an alpha, beta, epsilon, or whatever the gently caress. It's a product that is for sale. "It's a beta!" is not and has never been a valid excuse for a game that is available for immediate purchase and play being bad, and the fact this hardly unique to Starbound doesn't change that. oddium posted:Starbound is about two things: building and exploring. The matter manipulator/pickaxe situation is a trainwreck and combat is staggerly worse than Minecraft's. But it's okay because they're going to change things at random in the nightlies until they find what people like Yeah, that isn't really a fair comparison. You regenerate health in minecraft so you can actually explore without having to use five hundred loving bandages or drop a tent after every third fight.

"I bought this suit from a tailor, but it doesn't fit and weirdly smells like cheese for some reason. But it's okay, they're a good tailor and they promised to fix it eventually. I mean they never gave a date and their last suggestion was to dye it puce but I'm sure it will be fine eventually!" I can make meaningless analogies too!

A-are you sure...?  And really, 99% of the annoyance over Starbound will go away if and when there's an actual live patch that fixes core issues and adds a degree of content. But there hasn't been that, and mocking the game as it stands is perfectly fine. Because it's all that's there.

Forcing people to dig for ores won't be fun until actually digging through the planet isn't a slow, tedious loving slog. Just for the record.

Psygnosis posted:I'm kind of sad they're removing the survival aspects of this game. I thought they were interesting. No, it was stupid and was always stupid. You can make hunger-style mechanics work, but the game literally has to be designed around the resource management. In something like Starbound it's just a tedious timesink and distraction.

Reiley posted:The game is full of things which attack you on sight. Having a good system to interact with these things in an enjoyable way is pretty high up the list. There are plenty of other games for tedious grinding and getting lost in anonymous landscapes, this one had the unique potential to let you go on a hunt.
