>>712573696 (OP)

polska gurom

Yeah, I'm in act one. The prologue was pure unadulterated kino. God tier title drop. Very happy that I went in barely knowing the mechanics of how the alters worked, cause that was a crazy reveal. These dudes are easily my favorite Polish developers. Fuck the other open world slopper fags.

It's an autism simulator with no marketing. What were you expecting?

I heard this was coming out for yeeears.
So what is it? Is it like oxygeon not included or fallout shelter?

>>712579652
>Is it like oxygeon not included or fallout shelter?
Looks to me like Death Stranding meets the ant base from XCOM.

I played the demo and it was alright. The concept of cloning yourself from alternate timelines with different skills is cool but the actual world exploration I wasn't sold on

>>712577774
You kinda enslave everyone and bring them into this shitty situation with you so it's even worse really

>>712576891
you act like i care about either

>>712580000
You give them life. They would not exist without the protagonist. It's not like he is pulling them out of another reality. He is simply doing dimensional cloning.

>>712579340
why do they look like degenerates? is this made by wokies or something?

>>712579340
I'm playing it on gamepass desu senpai

>>712573696 (OP)
No. Is that the game where everyone is the same person? Where's that frogboy who thinks everyone should be him.

>>712573696 (OP)
hot gay sexo with all Jans

>>712582901
It's all clones of the same guy. He uses magic scifi tech to chose alternate outcomes for things that happened in his life then the computer calculates the results and prints a clone based on it.

>tfw no alter gf

I'd like to address the anons from yesterdays thread who called me "a retard" for claiming that Jan is actually cloning himself instead of "pulling the alters from other realities" like heckin Rick & Morty

Who's the retard now?

Yeah, fight me nigga.

Well, technically yes, because it was only real in his mind

correct because he hasn't done anything wrong

>>712574949
I doubt it

Uhm, no? Who?

Can you create your own character? or are you forced to look like a San Francisco game dev

I'm kind of an alternate version of my dad and our relationship is rocky, to put it mildly

I admire him as a human being although he's not perfect and neither am I, but we both have problems with communication and expressing our feelings

I'm sold on the story, but not sure about the gameplay. I think I'll wait and see how it develops past what we saw in the demo. It was alright, but I'm hoping there's some thought to how you gather materials and place structures to gather materials and navigate the planet.

>>712599043
What? It's literally the point.

>>712573696 (OP)
This story better be good because this game is big as fuck.

>>712581047
You clone them but they have full life experiences from what I remember from the demo. So it's more like a Soma situation where you're loading up a bio-robot with all the memories of a person to work for you

Don't have a PS5, but googled and it is apparently on PS5 too.

Next week. It has been on my wishlist for awhile. Probably should avoid these threads until I play it.

>>712603197
The threads are likely going to be full of retards like >>712602862 the story is alright so far, but nothing that spoilers would ruin, similar to Frostpunk.

PIRATING IT RIGHT NOW

>>712603342
Shame because Frostpunk's story did disappoint me since it felt like it would go on longer.

>>712603342
Is the core gameplay basebuilding or

>>712603421
don't forget to buy the game if you like it and if you can afford buying it(buy it on GOG if possible)

>>712602914
>goypass
instead of spending money on goypass just buy games on sale on GOG, death to Microsoft and Xbox

>>712603452
I never cared for it, same for the demo, and same for other stuff from 11bit. They rely on story, but gameplay is actually their strength, they just need more levels/content for most of their games.

>>712603458
No, it's mostly exploration/managment with minor Mass Effect-like crew talking/story.

am I in a shill bot thread? never heard of this game ever

>>712603978
>never heard of this game ever
lurk more, i had it included in my older 3x3 of upcoming games i am looking forward to

who the fuck are you retard? not anyone who matters that's for sure

>>712603342
Kill yourself, faggot shill

>>712603978
Was announced for game pass and showed up at Summer Game Fest too. Demo has been up since a while ago and it was temporarily near the top.

>>712604273
Neck yourself, nigger.

>>712593557
yeah we’d make out a bit or whatever

Can I have sex with my alters?

Not without mods

>>712573696 (OP)
Make a thread again when theres a mod that turns the crew into hot girls

Yes, there's that one that chose to enter the free candy van as a kid

Other than Frostpunk series, 11bit never had any game break 10k online
Not sure what are you expecting

>>712611597
the game would definitely sell better if it wasn't a sausagefest
the captain of the expedition was a woman too so the devs aren't chuds, I don't know why they didn't do it

>>712593557
No, they know all the shameful shit

>>712573696 (OP)
I've just finished act 1. It's definitely solid, but it also explains why Frostpunk 2 ended up rather mediocre last year. They've diverted a good chunk of their resources into developing Alters. I do experience crashes every 3 hours or so, but I expect those to be fixed next week.
Probably a while until I reach the end, but I am not disappointed so far, which can't be said about most games lately.

>>712573696 (OP)
How come as soon as he makes a single clone (all of them being infinitely more competent than him) they don't immediately take control and relegate him to latrine cleaning duty? Instead the manual labourer appears to be the captain. of course it's for gameplay reasons but on the surface it looks odd

>>712615390
>they don't immediately take control and relegate him to latrine cleaning duty?
You don't belittle yourself like that mate

>>712615390
havent played this game but my in-game reason would be each one is only suitable for a specific task... maybe?

>>712599082
wow its like the Martian + Moon (2009)

>people in steam discussion are saying its a timed game
kinda shit. let me explore and build

>>712615390
Come to think of it, sending the guy out while sitting in the base is very close to cleaning duty

>>712573696 (OP)
Downloading it on my 'eck as we speak. Hopefully it runs well.

Those are clones from alternate dimensions. Dumbass, it's nature versus nurture. But 2025 /v/ is so dumb that sci-fi is just wasted on retards like you.

DO NOT set the "economy difficulty" to a harder setting. It makes everything tedious and you progress 5x slower.

runs fine on my setup, but i do feel its hogging the gpu hard, might be vram problems or shaders, since its another shader stutter problem, as much as i hate starting a game by "calculating shaders", this one needs it, stopped stuttering only by mid of act 1

Its not a hard timer, but thing do keep getting harder and harder if you dont do it in the initial time frame
