I don't know what this is (is it a ferret?), but it is  as hell, and seems to have better planning skills than SC has.

There is a story here, and I want to hear it  Getting back on topic, I was cleaning up my image folders this weekend and I found (kinda NSFW) these pics, and I couldn't help but wonder "drat, how much money would Citizens have saved if these were around in 2012?".

Honestly, I think an SC-esque TTTRPG might be cool, but what can it being to the, well, table that other games haven't already? EDIT: What I mean to say is that if an SC tabletop game ever came out, why would I want to play that over, say, Rogue Trader?

Never heard of it before this post, but now that I've done some Googling, I absolutely must have this game Zero_Grade posted:So yeah, I agree with your assessment that it could exist, but there's no real niche for it. Exactly! Rake away all the nebulous, unfulfillable promises of SC, and what you're left with is something shallower than a Saturday morning cartoon. There is literally no reason for SC to exist than to provide daydream fodder, and you don't need to mortgage a house to do that!

no_recall posted:Unfortunately they're probably one of the earlier hires that believe in CR's dream and watching all this unravel before their eyes without understanding that money is transferred from ship sales into their salary. This is the really dumb thing for me, especially since that guy apparently has enough brain cells to formulate coherent English sentences. SC relies on the presence of whales more than any other game, even gacha games, and as such catering to the whales' power fantasies is paramount. You WANT those guys to feel like superheroes so they can keep funding their fix, and stuff like long and involved crafting, PVP where trolls and griefers can shatter that illusion, and the harsh death punishments discussed a few posts ago will get in the way of that. How someone can apparently be a dev and not see that is crazy.

Considering that SC's audience doesn't seem to have advanced since 2002-ish, this is brilliant marketing actually  Seriously though, was this pre- or post- Stimpire?

The Titanic posted:I think crewing could totally work. I'm not sure that can do this, even if they really had all the talent, resources and progress they claim to have. I'm strongly reminded of the sci-fantasy game Starfinder, where PCs are encouraged to have ship roles, each supposedly with their own set of options to use in space combat. In reality, you're usually stuck doing the same thing again and again every starship combat, especially if you're the gunner, and two of the Chief Engineer's five potential options can only be used if your PCs have well and truly hosed up, while another two need the player to spend rare personal resources (which might not be a problem in a space sim, I'll grant you). Still, for anyone outside the captain and/or pilot, I don't really see much fun being had if you're a starship's crew.

I dunno man; if you can come up with something that makes 40K look like Sesame Street 'on a whim', you might need to go outside for a bit. Thoatse posted:The only reason they even have any hope at this point is precisely because they can’t even give a glimpse into the actual state of the game right now Yep, it's a Schrodinger's Game scenario- as long as the waveform hasn't collapsed through an actual game being released or anything being set in stone, then the game exists in whatever state an individual backer can imagine.

Dunno if anyone's posted this yet, but the algorithm coughed this up for me. It's a dude who's somehow never heard of SC playing it for the first time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CryKMSG-FQY Seriously though, for all that Citizens hype up how this is the best game ever with a playerbase growing by leaps and bounds, you'd think that a dude with more than half a million subs (which seems quite respectable to me) would've heard of it.

lobsterminator posted:I started a playthrough with Sim Settlements 2 mod a few months ago, but I ended up feeling it was not that fun. It's a great feat technically. It adds totally new things to FO4 like cutscenes. And it's hilarious in how they wrote the dialogue to work with the existing player character lines, so it's bad, but funny bad. Hah, I'm the exact opposite; the only thing that helped me through Fo4 was Sim Settlements 2. I liked the building minigame, but it really bummed me out that all I managed to make were either concrete bunkers or prefab shacks. With SS2 though, it felt good to provide for my settlers and see them upgrade their rickety shacks into massive mansions with all kinds of knickknacks and flavour gribblies inside them. There were times I'd just spend an hour or two invading my settlers' privacy and peeking into their houses and shops  Thoatse posted:Especially the ones with acid for blood I would and you would, no use denying it Chronojam posted:One Sim Settlements feature is to also, on game start, have a bunch of settlements auto build. It takes like ten minutes and you can pick and choose various settings or leave some random. And OF COURSE I find out about this feature after I uninstall Fallout 4 to make way for Wasteland 3. Is this for SS2 or the original Sim Settlements, and if it's for the former, how do I enable it in the Vault? CommissarMega fucked around with this message at 12:33 on Jul 23, 2022 |

The Titanic posted:Pretty sure a lot of what we're seeing is tons and tons of work going into making a splinter-company more dedicated to cgi in movies, and they are just shoehorning it into star citizen as some "progress evidence" even though it has very little importance in a space game. Yeah, that's my thought on how they're making money too, that and doing grunt work for other companies- after all, you might not need to have a full motion-capture suite running at all times, so might as well call up CI
