Haven't received a single thing. Neither STUs nor anything else. But hey, this is the game where a small light weighs 80kg but a mountain weighs zero and can float, so what else is new ... And I don't really care anymore. Just perusing the forums for amusement.

Yeah, lol, it is even worse than before, it's like GI is not working at all, and nothing like what they showed in their image of that room with those cube shapes etc. I showed how this is worse in one short video. Not like I am playing anyway, but just wanted to see if they have finally managed to fix the lights after so many years.

Main Pillars of DU: Exploration: the game is "ready for release" yet its first of the main pillars is COMPLETELY MISSING. There is nothing to explore, because there is nothing to see worth your time or effort. Barren wasteland, nothing to find, no aliens, no ancient civilizations, no real artifact, no unique planetary features worth exploring. Move along. Building: so-so ... the question is why though? There is no purpose behind building anything really (besides maybe ships) because there is no system dependency. You can build a fake garden out of plastics but you don't NEED to build it, because there are no dependent game mechanics tied to it. So you are wasting time and energy for something that is completely pointless and nothing will change whether you build it or not, nothing will be risked, nothing will be gained. Also, it's fake so nothing will grow in it. Move along. Economy: lol RPG: wait, what? Ooohhh so that's what the end of this acronym ("MMORPG") stands for .... I see. Well, nothing to see here, move along. PvP: another lol ... or wait! Maybe, you know, if you had built a garden which happens to be in that specific spot of land with its unique features, and the only place known where the produce is 900% higher than anywhere else, thus making that garden extremely sought after, so you have to defend it with everything you got, because some players might try to attack you and occupy your land where this garden is ...... oh, I forgot again, there is nothing of the sort here. Move along. Social: Ha! After 8 years, the game is now ready for release.

Managing to break the lights even more is a talent in itself:

I had done this in the beta. I wanted to gift 2 keys to 2 of my friends, one of them being an EVE Veteran - they flat out refused.

🚽

Don't care.

LOL?

It's a game made by 2 people, and has more content and entertainment in it right now than DU has after spending 30 million dollars and 7 years of development.

Yes, the french state administration is still debating what to do about the invasion from a certain neighbouring country that overwhelmed their lands some 70 years ago ... I hear a massive "strategic retreat" is in the talks.

My game loop right now is playing Planet Crafter. Great game so far:

I built ships while waiting for the game (exploration, rpg ...). It never came. I stopped playing.

^^ lol

That video was so rivetting! It shows perfectly how engaging, heated and tense PVP in DU is ... /zZzzzZzzzz

This aged well, lol ....

Are you lads still waiting for that answer, lol ...

😜

And that right there is the tragedy ...

Blablabla bla bla bla bla? Bla. Bla?! Bla bla! Blaaaahh ....

As stated many times, if they did the things which I mentioned (in my video as well) then yes. Otherwise no.

Yes.

Hahahaha ... this is just comedy ... I was already at the limit when I stopped playing because as a ship builder I did need many cores, for each ship I showcased, plus the base/showroom itself, then the bloody MUs ... but now ... Anyway, I don't really care anymore ...

Why does every single one of you automatically assume "having to eat, cook, crap" when we say "survival elements"? No one is talking about having to eat and drink and what not. What we talk about (what I also explicitly mentioned in a video of mine) is survival elements as in: no possibility to breathe under water. Needing shelter from natural elements (storms, rain, snow, cold). Making it so that you actually DIE if you fall into an abyss. Making it so that you cannot simply fly off into space sitting on a bloody chair without any protection around you. All that ties in together with energy, industry and so on. And of course you can have food and crops and animals and everything - not because you need to consume food every 5 minutes (which is stupid when used in many games), but because through crops and food you have other linking game loops, and the food you can use for boosts or whatever. Ugh!!! God it pisses me off when people keep copy-pasting only the same one argument ignoring everything else ...
