How hard do you think the game will flop?

It's not going to flop, financially at least.
They're going to sell more than enough copies to cover development costs and if it's bad people will lose interest in 3-4weeks. Then they might release some "big special amazing lots of content" update in 7 months that spikes the playerbase for 2 weeks then it'll drop again.

This except I doubt any more content comes out for it and they just take the money and start something else

N U M A L E S K Y am i rite?

Launching in august is a suicide, 600k copies at best

It won't make much of a dent since it's releasing a month before Final Fantasy XV.

I like big open exploration games and i have a friend who is pretty hype for it, but i probably won't get it, will save my money for >>345083512

It's going to sell amazingly despite it being Starbound 3D. The marketing is too strong.
>>
>>345082359
At least they are smart enough not to release it the same month as Manly Fantasy XV
>>
What do you even do in this game
Just explore?
All the gameplay videos I've seen are is just some guy exploring some planet, showing off some species, and riding into space doing nothing.
>>
>>345082359
I expect it to be like Subnautica, the kind of game you play again for 10 hours every three months when there's nothing else you feel like playing.
>>
>>345083812
exploration is the main activity, yes.

the core gameplay loop is exploration, resource gathering, trading, and upgrading, with combat peppered in. you need to upgrade to reach the center of the universe
>>
>>345084065
>reach the center of the universe
it actually has a goal? well okay
>>
>>345082359
It'll sell decently, /v/ will claim it a failure, the world won't, life moves on
>>
>>345084728
of the little that is known, that much has been stated, along with that the game will continue even after the player gets there (but we don't know what that really entails)
>>
>>345082359
I feel like this is only fun to play if you're high or tripping.
>>
>>345085446
That's how I plan to use it. Feels like the perfect game to play when baked
>>
>>345082359
Isn't its budget something like 100k$? Retards preordering it will be more than enough to cover it.
>>
>>345082359
it'll make the dollars because it's been on a huge hype train.
it'll be shit.

It'll sell well, it'll be okay, fun at first, a little dull after a while. Most people will put 6-7 hours into it and move on with their lives. Couple of autists will sink hundreds of hours in. Some other autists will spend the next 3 months declaring it flop of the decade

>>345082513

Gee, what a bold prediction you have.
