Thread 723735406

Anyone else playing this now that it's 1.0?

How's your colony coming along?

>>723735406 (OP)
haven't got very far yet. playing alone it feels a little slow, lots of shit to clog up your inventory.. kind of feels like a worse terraria. definitely prefer the full open world over the islands system they used to have

>>723735560
Set your villagers to haul and set a bunch of chests to get filled with specific item types. Then dump it somewhere they can access and they’ll sort all your clogged inventory.
As far as inventory too, majority of the quest rewards are things that declog inventory, basically extra item slot bags for specific things like food or potions.

>>723735560
>kind of feels like a worse terraria.
That's my impression.
Worse Terraria, worse Rimworld, but $10.

>>723735406 (OP)
its fun for a playthrough but you'll reach the limit of what the colony sim has to often pretty quickly. Fun design though

>>723735794
i'm not 6 years old i know how to sort my shit. it just has the problem where i explore for 5 mins and am forced to drop a bunch of stuff or turn back and empty my pockets.

Yeah I started playing today. 2.5h in, it's very fun. I'm probably very slow because I'm jsut looking into settlers and only have iron tools. Well, half of the time was spent reading tooltips etc.
Honestly, it's quite ovewrwhelming, I don't know what to focus on. There's a quest from tutorial NPC but it sounds dangerous?

>>723736000
The void pocket helps solve that, 20 extra inv slots. You get it after the third boss.

Why do people say Terraria? This game looks like it has some management aspects and Terraria literally had zero management.

>>723736115
yeah the quests are bosses and can be tough, but you need to beat them to progress meaningfully.
soldier armor is pretty easy to make early on, get a good ranged weapon, that's all you should need.
and there's like a dozen things you could be doing but let it happen naturally

>>723736150
It's closer to 2D minecraft than Terraria

>>723736150
characters and worlds being separate
the overall gear progression
item prefix system and an npc to handle rerolling them
bosses gating new tiers of gear
a slew of crafting benches and such next to a bunch of storage chests all renamed based on what's in them
finding gear better than the shit you just spent 30 mins crafting
the way summons work
the way healing works in combat
focus on buffs and potions and shit
needing villagers in your town to have access to certain things
movement related gear being really nice to find

it's like top down terraria with less terrain deformation and more settlement related interactions, lad

is there a way to build preset buildings, having to stop every time I recruit a new village to craft them a bedroom is annoying as hell

I presume the village aspects are rather shallow since this has a high combat focus?

>>723736556
you're actually delusional or haven't played the games you're talking about. minecraft and necesse share virtually no similarities beyond NPC behaviours

>>723736150
It's definitely similar to Terraria in terms of how many tools, weapons, objects, furniture you can craft, how you place them and so on. Weapon variety and mechanics are reminescent as well but it seems there's more complexity here (probably not in all aspects?). You're also correct that NPC management is a lot more advanced here. Reminds me of Palworld.
I much prefer Necesse's style of looking at the world from above. Terraria's side view was always weird to me and made building unappealing. Here however I do have the urge to build stuff once I get a better hang of how the game functions and gather more resources.

>>723736784
everything feels kinda shallow overall, besides how much shit there is to craft. better than starbound, at least.

>>723735406 (OP)
Really enjoyed making a colony and expanding the base. The exploration gets repetitive eventually but not soon enough to not have a good time first.

The combat seems to fall apart once you recruit enough adventures for your party. Haven't finished it yet but I stopped fearing the boss encounters.

Is it fun? Played it with a few friends like a year ago and felt like there wasn't much to really do. Maybe it's more fun sinlgeplayer

Is there a way to break gear/tools that are outmoded so I can smelt them down, or should I just keep deleting them with my trash pocket?

>>723737291
it feels better now with the less claustrophobic worldgen. i really don't think it's better alone than it is with others

>>723735406 (OP)
This screenshot looks appealing to me but when I look at the steam trailer it looks like a pure combat game almost.

>>723736676
>>723736837
Interesting, thanks for the rundown bros. I'll have to try this out with a buddy later down the line. This seems like a game we could both get immersed in.

>>723735794
they'll do it even when set to other stuff. I have two chests marked for nothing (dump chests) and then 1 of each other type and they sort it when coming to put stuff in it

>>723737672
There's base building but it's limited in scope. You'll have 4 or 5 people doing work and the rest just waiting for combat

>>723735406 (OP)
Necesse is slop.

>>723737942
> You'll have 4 or 5 people doing work and the rest just waiting for combat
That's lame. I thought I could build a whole town and automate it.

How do you go about developing your settlement? Build new house for each NPC?

Played a bit of it but it didn't feel like something that's been in EA for 6 years.
Im just gonna wait for Enshrouded to get out of EA hell. Its current state last I played it already felt better than Necesse, and every update improves the game considerably. ...Except performance.

>>723739031
Keep in mind it was made by one guy for a long time and he was later joined by a couple of people. 6 years figure sounds good for marketing but shouldn't be taken seriously as some insane workload of big team.

>>723739031
Enshrouded is dogshit. There aren't even any town invasions or any reason to build at all

>>723739291
You build to be creative, I dont want my shit raided in the first place, I'll play a tower defense for that. Also with a bit of rebinding I was able to turn the game into Dark Souls combat so that helped a lot.

the reaper boss reaped my asshole. I'm going to go get ore from the next biome and hope it unlocks something to make it easier.

>>723739003
I have a giant 4x4 commie block right now. each room is 7x7. they sleep in their little commie block and then come out to work on my wheat empire.

>>723739003
yeah a house with a bed for each. make a half dozen of them for random NPCs to start with.

>>723739456
>the reaper boss reaped my asshole.
That's a very ugly way to formulate this.

>>723739291
>There aren't even any town invasions
Holy based. Buying it right now.

>>723739417
Then play Minecraft, faggot
>hurrrr let's make a cool combat system
>but not use it for anything exciting

>>723739814
Homosexual

>>723739970
Minecraft is garbage, it only becomes playable after you install 300 mods and turn it into a different game.

>>723739970
Very valuable, informative and objective comment.

>>723739970
>Homosexual
Hey I am not the one who enjoys getting ass fucked by raids.

>>723739814
>Buying it right now.
They're adding water next update so I'd wait for that at least.

>>723740273
wtf what do you drink then? So if you get thirsty you just die?

>>723740453
There's still drinks and water as items for food and recipes, you just can't use water as a building block until the next update.

>>723735406 (OP)
It's an alright game. It does everything well enough to be fun for a while. I feel like I've run out of steam around 15 hours in, but it's cheap so the bar is low. Worth a play if you've got an itch for it

ranged weapons feel like shit.

>>723735560
>lots of shit to clog up your inventory
drop shit you don't want
use storage chests
wtf man
get good

>>723736801
NTA but I don't think they share even that, it's just the rough outline of smacking shit with a pickaxe so you can get resources that they share. Minecraft is such a barebones game beyond redstone fuckery that I never understood how it got so goddamn popular, there is almost no actually functionality to anything or mechanical depth to it whatsoever. You don't even have proper dungeons or anything, just randomly generated caves with randomly generated enemies in them with zero cohesion or sense of gameplay flow at all. Literally every single knock off clone and game inspired by it that came after is tremendously better.

>>723735406 (OP)
It's very fun for 10-20 hours. Than you figure out you can just keep recruiting more people into your party and the combat falls apart.
Good for its price though.

>>723735406 (OP)
I might return to the game since I abandoned all my main games
And uninstalled every single gachashit
So that's that
I need some new fresh game

>>723735406 (OP)
>more Stardew Valley clones
yawn

>>723735560
Wait they removed the islands?

>>723745351
Minecraft being 3D automatically puts it way higher. That's the simple truth.

>>723735406 (OP)
Refunded already. I don't know how you niggers suffer through this slop.

>>723746348
In terms of visual creativity possibilities, sure, but that doesn't excuse how lacking in actual fucking GAMEPLAY it is.

Although mods do go a really long way in fixing that. I can't imagine playing it vanilla.

>>723735406 (OP)
What is this game about?
From what I've seen, it's top down Terraria but you mention colony.

>>723747149
top down Terraria but with lite Rimworld systems, IE: you get colonists who you build homes for, can have them do tasks for you and need to keep them alive and fed

>>723735406 (OP)
>Necesse
no

I'm intrested but I'm also racist
How prevalent are the darkies and pavment apes in this game? Can I completely avoid them? Do I get to choose who lives in my town? Can I make an ethnostate? Can these things be easily modded in, if not?

>>723750098
NPC skin color is randomized. You can freely dismiss any colonists you don't like. It's extremely easy to disable various skin options through modding.

>>723750246
Based
May pick it up especially considering it's only about 40% of a silksong right now due to the introductory sale

>>723750793
You can just pirate it, it's on every usual site

>>723750943
I dont pirate games

am I stupid or what am I supposed to do here? it's like 5 mins in and I'm supposed to mine ore but there's lava all around me and I die in 2 sec if I walk on it

>>723751203
Get off my board.

>>723751283
lol...

Either pick up the ladder on the surface and move it to another position away from the lava above ground or craft a new ladder and drop it some place else. Bad RNG

>>723751283
Unlucky random spawn. I was in a normal cave. Try crafting and placing floor tiles maybe? Or use a boat? (i don't know if it will work)

>>723751283
Just place the ladder somewhere else, nigga

>>723735406 (OP)
Pretty chill but im too lazy to make a proper village so everyones living in a crack house

>>723751550
>>723751905
oh I didnt know I could move it. thx

Best way to get leather?
Raiders just fucking stole from my stash

>>723754692
cows

>>723757010
So no other source? I killed around 2 biomes worth of cows and they dont seem to respawn within those biomes.
Raiders took like 70 items out of my chests. I'm seriously thinking of putting my shit underground

>>723757578
>purging an entire population of animals instead of farming them

Ugg scratches his head and wonders why everywhere he goes, people starve

>>723758198
I've had two bulls and a cow in a pen and an animal handler npc since game start and there are no new cows ever

>>723759090
The bulls are obviously gay, try offering them your butthole and farting the jizz into the female.

Friends want to play on Brutal with drop all equipment on death
Sounds like it will be a massive pain in the ass to play like this
Thoughts?

>>723759159
Thanks for the tip will try it out :)

>>723735406 (OP)
haven't seen any gameplay of this yet, but i've heard it described as top-down terraria. how true is that? i really like terraria's almost metroidvania-esque progression, does this game have anything like that?

>>723759221
That should be part of the fun in the group and extend the playtime a lot. Great idea.

>>723759395
Try it out for free and you will see. It really is top down Terraria, with more NPC options.

>>723751283
nice spawn

I think the trinket ability to sprint should have been integrated into the base mechanics with a designated sprint hotkey, with the trinket slots opening up augmentation like it already does past the first tier. Playing through this blind the first hour, I was just exploring caves on Brutal and occasionally dying because I was overcommitting with starter movement speed. Being able to defeat the first boss naked should also be possible if you're good enough, but again I think the base movement speed is too limiting to pull that off in melee range and you're expected to use either ranged or magic and gear up before even attempting to spawn the boss.

Forest surface, what the fuck am I missing here?
