minus-squareemptyother@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down14·2 years agoIt was slightly innovative to have buildable starships, wasnt it? Probably enough that the average steam voter went 🤯.
minus-squareWaluigis_Talking_Buttplug@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·2 years agoYou think it’s the first game with buildable starships? That’s been a whole GENRE of games for like 15 years now.
minus-squareteft@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up8·2 years agoMore than 20. Eve came out in 2003.
minus-squarepeopleproblems@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down3·2 years agoYeah, but how many of them are good? Like kerbal space program is AWESOME. Space Engineers was… blocky.
minus-squareChriswild@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·2 years agoSpace engineers is no more blocky than Starfield.
minus-squarethisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoStarbase is pretty good but it needs more development in the “game” parts. As a spaceship making sim its pretty dam good
minus-squareemptyother@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoBest starship builder ever, imho! But not much to do but mine and build, if one doesnt play multiplayer. Got tired of it eventually.
minus-squareaxo10tl@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoThere’s plenty to do if you install mods, particularly Modular Encounters Systems. Also, check out Splitsie’s Survival Impossible -series if you need more inspiration :)
minus-squareemptyother@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoCool! Stuff like that wasn’t around when I played it last.
minus-squareWilliam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·2 years agoSlightly. It was basically “modular base with wings!” It was nice, but even that got complaints about how tedious it was to build ships, IIRC.
minus-squareXerodin@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 years agoShould’ve added the /s at the end, my dude. Sarcasm detectors don’t work on Internet text. Also, after reading your comment I immediately thought of the gummy block ships from Kingdom Hearts and lol’d at myself.
minus-squareemptyother@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoYeah. But the part about average steam voter being easily impressed wasnt sarcasm.
