dont know why i got my hopes up
long war made it ok with some serious tweaking but overall this shit was nothing compared to the original

I bought Dragon Age 2. FOR FULL PRICE.

It ruined everything about my hype for games I think might be good.

I learned an important lesson that day

Sup Forums warned you, should have listened.

my excuse is that i was 14 when it came out and still enjoyed it for maybe a month anyway

>Starbound

Me too friend, but I had fun with it like 3 years ago so $12 well spent

Fuck Ty and Chuckfish though

The real shame is knowing that cube world, despite being abandoned is alot more fun than Stabound

Lemme tell you guys a bit of a story.
You see guys, back in 2009, a certain warcraft 3 map creator was contact by valve to help him create a stand-alone version of that map. Development of that game took 4 years and has gone through numerous bug fixes, additional heroes and balances done to keep the game in parity with the wc3 map version.
There were a lot of complaints specifically during the invite only testing phase. Lots of bugs popped out, some persisting to this very day. Even after the release of the game last July, people have been asking for more content and more bugfixes to the point that they ended up spilling over their complaints to Volvo and Obama for a few days back in October/November even.
But those things didn't stop the developers. Every major patch they had, they amaze and continue to amaze their playerbase. They added new heroes, added new game modes, added new and exciting features, some of which were suggested by the players themselves, and modified several existing functionalities. The game even have a strong and robust competitive scene that was active even during the development phase.
The end result of all that:
25.9 million players overall.
Monthly totals reaching nearly 8.1m.
Daily concurrent players reaching 800k at peak days.
And the fourth iteration of their grand tournament boasts a prize pool of almost $8.8m, most of it obtained through player crowd funding.
The name of that WC3 map creator? Icefrog. The name of the game? DotA2. Arguably the best ARTS game in history.

There.
And I'm so happy I did, too.
It rivals DF as colony management game.
Loses as world builder because it misses the whole dimension, but I played DF for colony management anyway, not building.

Sorry I thought it was funny

>Watch_Dogs

Never had trusted a ubi game since

R6: Seige was pretty good tho desu~

i wanna fuck the birds

Rimworld is also hella young, hopefully it'll be expanded upon properly as DF was and continues to be.

mang
eul made dota
passed down to guinsoo
then to icefrog when guinsoo when to college

Who knew "Rise Up" was in reference to the DLC prices.

I doubt it. Only through mods maybe. They released 1.0 already.

Still a better game than NMS.

spore

it was stil better than starbound and NMS

I wasn't expecting something equal to the original but I was still disappointed. It feels like you have only 1/10 of the options the original gave you in every situation.

There must be more stories

Bought Starbound because I believed in the devs words saying the game will be updated constantly even after its released for further content. Promised great game, great exploration, but it all ends up being a shit game with nothing to do past the first hour.

Never trusted a single early access game after that.

...

>guy didn't want to sell it since he knew people would be angry at his pace of updates and wasn't content on selling yet
>get death threats
>decides start selling it
>continues to proceed exactly as the same pace as before
>receive more death threads
I feel bad for him.

What's funny is that Starbound then and now hardly changed. It added a garbage story mode that is just "Hey click on stupid shit 7 times over and fight a boss" where the boss is uninteresting half the time. The rest of the game? Literally the same with less color variations.
