So how may of you got duped into buying this overhyped, underdelivered shitfest of a game?

How does it feel knowing you funded Chucklefuck the indie publishing company and not Starbound the game?

Feels bad to me.

Starbound struck while the iron was hot. Terraria was in a period of inactivity, and fans already ate up all the content and were starving for a similar experience.

Enter Shitbound, with the perfect "link" to Terraria, the garbage "artist" Tiyuri, whose claim to fame was ripping FFV sprites to slightly edit for Terraria.

90k concurrent players on its opening. I doubt it breaks 3k today.

Why do these things happen.

Why are you faggots still bitching about Starbound when the devs are actively updating their blog and showing their work of progress?
>>
>>336133227
Still made more for video games that all you fuckers combined ever did

I like Starbound and am unironically hyped for 1.0

No regrets
>>
I remember while developing this mess, the lead con artist posted screens of pixel graphics thing that looked exactly like Hyper Light Drifter.

So I guess you could stay tuned for Super Dashing in Space chucklefucks edition
>>
>>336133864
Only discovered this game about 2 weeks ago. Me and my SO are hyped for its launch, we deciding to wait for 1.0 before starting.

We sunk a lot of hours in to Terraria together and this looks right up our alley too.
>>
answer me this

is 1,0 going to have a lot of new stuff? like a shitton of content?

I replayed starbound a few weeks ago and it had new bosses (wow) but it's almost as empty as before

should I expect anything good from 1.0?

also when the fuck are they going to release it
>>
>>336133638
Because it's been ages and it's still bad.

what?
>>
>>336134558
superior officer
>>
>>336133638
Because it's been like years since it was funded and jack shit has been done with it.
>>
When does 1.0 come out?
Will the combat ever not feel like a floaty mess?
Will the exploration stop being so repetitive?
>>336134558
He means significant other. Could be a boyfriend, girlfriend, wife, husband, whatever.
>>
I want to fuck a Floran.
>>
>>336134464
those devs are absolutely fucking incompetent if you haven't noticed, I wouldn't expect shit from 1.0

the cold harsh truth is that starbound will never be a good game, the devs simply can't into exploration, combat, progression or anything really other than posting "so funneh XD" tweets

To be fair to Tiy, he was hired on later, he had nothing to do with the FFV sprites. Pick related is his real claim to fame, he worked on a few minor cosmetic items.

So updates are slow, so what? The game is still being developed.

>>336135360
lmao get out of here tiy
>>
>>336135360
When a game becomes worse over time you can't really call it development.

Literally their biggest hook was combat and gear variety, why the fuck would you have a patch that makes generic crafted weapons the strongest?

>Updates are slow
Waiting for molasses to flow is "slow"

Starbound's update schedule is like waiting for asphalt to drip.
>>
>>336132990

Starbound is pretty ite these days

Just needs a dodge roll and the combat is fixed and a massive performance overhaul senpai.
>>
>>336133864
Mah nigga. I feel bad for those who waited years but I got my copy a month ago (when the 1.0 announcement) and I am having a blast. I couldn't be more hype.
>>
>>336132990
I got it because it was fun at first.
Then they killed the game and the only way for me to keep enjoying it, was to mod it myself. That was tiring and frustrating and then I quit it for good. No idea, but the stuff I found fun in the game were deemed "problemetic" by the devs.
>nerfing energy recharge generation
Like fuck off devs, let me infinite blink all over the planets.
I want my endgame combat to be different from lv 1 combat, not exactly the same but with bigger numbers. How can you fuck that up so hard.
>>
>>336134464
1.0 will have story mode
A planet will have more than one biome
New weapons
Damage on contact is removed when attacking
Survival mode is finally finished, hunger, weather and more
New dungeons
Mercenaries you can hire
Create your cities, fill them with NPC and get quests from them

>check out the newsfeed

>still basically plays like terraria in space

>>336136741

This is why I'm afraid to start the colony stuff
>>
I bought it when it was first available, played a little, came back in January and had fun. It's incomplete, but I'm looking forward to 1.0.
>>
>>336133864
Got it way early on. Had ups and downs, have had a lot of fun building. Never gone more than two months without killing significant time with this game. Mods were fun. I like it.
>>
Only started looking at Starbound because it was "releasing" soon. I never pay attention to early access until they actually release. It looks like fun, and I'm about done with Terraria and prefer sci-fi settings anyway. A fan of Star Ocean mostly, so hopefully it scratches that itch. Maybe I'll wait a few months after official release or wait for a Steam sale. I've got no expectations so when I do play, I'll be surprised. I just feel bad for anyone else who've been playing for this whole time.
