oh yes it's been a while, post character

Fuck chucklefish, fuck starbound, and fuck you

Billy Argon, Novakid scientist.

why?

...

now this glitch makes me feel bad

>Be me
>Play Avali
>Check crafting recipes
>Make some Avali glass
>Decide to sell it
>Profit
>Start bulk-buying coal from Ursa Miner
>Use it to make graphene
>Use that to make aerogels and use that to make more glass
>Make a killing
>Can literally just buy any ores I need in assloads from Ursa Miner now, money is nothing to me anymore.
And that's how I realized downloading the Avali mod made other races not viable.

is that chibi?

Hylotls best girls.

Assertive. You are incorrect.

So much treasure, but how to obtain it...

Top tier

I can't play Starbound anymore because my hard drive died and I lost absolutely all of my songs.
Don't even care anymore.

beside human ship all the ships suck tho, prove me wrong

isn't terraria better
didn't chucklefuck ditch a bunch of concepts like mechs
isn't the game shit in that it has really shitty progression with armors and ores and basically no end-game
wasn't the game content starved

Avalis are cute as fuck, a bud had me play them on his server and we had a blast despite the game being shit

>isn't terraria better
personnaly can't get into terraria
>didn't chucklefuck ditch a bunch of concepts like mechs
haven't playing for long enough to know, but mechs are in the game since 1.3
>isn't the game shit in that it has really shitty progression with armors and ores and basically no end-game
there are some kind of dungeons where you can upgrade your legendary gear, also ye ores and gear are progression cap
>wasn't the game content starved
they're still planning updates, we have hint about 1.4 and a bounty system

It's a shame Starbound is shit, even the multiplayer died off pretty fast

There's Frackin' Universe that fix everything and make it much more enjoyable, but shining a turd won't do good, just extend the fun until you realize it's shit

what are some must have mods?

>release initially set for 2012
>"preorders" in 2013, release set for 2014
>beta in december 2013
>released in 2016
Also
>scrub the forums of all complaints
>fuck up progression, remove unique racial abilities
>still wildly successful for a Terraria rip-off
That's the gist of it. A lot of people were extremely unhappy with the way they handled development. I'm sure I could find the pastebin /sbg/ created years ago with all the other shit Tiy did, but I'm too lazy to find it.

>/sbg/
Oh boy that takes me back to the final days of the general. That was an engine of hate if I ever saw one. Lots of pics of people sitting too.

No shit, it's could have been a successful game if they bothered to check what people think, but they were full hacks

Even the waifufags couldn't save /sbg/ of it's fate, the multiplayer was too shit

the devs also killed a dog

wait, what?

There were good times and bad.
But mostly bad.

>isn't terraria better
Terraria is better, however Starbound has at least redeemed itself enough to be good. Still not comparable to Terraria's sheer quality of bosses and weapons though.
>didn't chucklefuck ditch a bunch of concepts like mechs
Probably some, not keeping track of everything, but the mechs certainly weren't part of the stuff ditched, since they're in the game. Worst I know of is that some of the more fun pre-release biomes are gone in the full release for some reason.
>isn't the game shit in that it has really shitty progression with armors and ores and basically no end-game
Terraria did it better. Late-game armors don't even get much variety until the very last set tier, and weapon crafting is pretty much useless, period. Overall, don't expect super-impressive weapons like the meowmere or terrarian in Starbound for the endgame zones, or bosses on par with Plantera or the Moon Lord.
>wasn't the game content starved
Slightly, they're still keeping the game updated, though, so who knows what the fuck the game will look like a couple of years from now.

>Starbound has at least redeemed itself enough to be good

>/sbg/

I went there expecting fun on the server, instead i got lag like everyone else

Now if only they would fix the multiplayer

I mean I never really got into Terraria but I emptied Starbound pretty quickly when I played and pretty much the only thing left to do was play awesome songs in multiplayer and show off my build shit.

>deleted ship outline for custom ship
>start placing terrain
>ship is now a planet

All they had to do was make a better Terraria and in space, but it fall flat in every regard. Even tried it recently and it's god damn boring.

The mods makes it enjoyable, but the game by itself is still shit despite the updates.

"Good" might be an overstatement. It's a "mods fix it" kind of experience.

>Starbound thread

I know the game is shit, but i now want to replay the game

I swear one of the only good thing about the game is the soundtrack if you don't count the mods

Man, those fucking early game versions with those fucking divebombing birds. Nightmare material.

I wish I could go back in time and slap myself for even considering backing this game.

Indeed.
youtube.com/watch?v=tONfEAQdDiQ

I wish I could go back in time where I was blind to chucklefuck and enjoy beta again blissfully unaware of what was going to happen.

I hate Tiy so much.

At least we were sold a pleasant dream.

Not that user but quick rundown

>They foolishly bought an office puppy
>first and last photo of puppy shown it in a cardboard box next to some power cords
>Everyone generally agreed that the pupper most likely chewed those cords are got fried

Without fail, the best part about this game is playing as a band custom vidya tunes with your friendsWe carved out a little pirate cave on a beach once and played shanties while being comfy on a rainy night.

That sounds like some bullshit. Chucklefish is a shit company but making up this shit is just silly. Just because they didn't show another picture of it?

I have a strong feeling they asked to see the dog plenty of the times in the future with no pictures. Even though we live in the age of smart phones where pictures take one second to take.

twitter.com/tiyuri/status/476497032266670080
This fucking thing? It's not even on the forums, it's just that twat's twitter. It's not even in a cardboard box.

>leaving loose cords around a pupper

Jesus christ

>game is sci-fi
>majority weapons are fucking spears and swords
>not even cool shit like Gravity hammers, chainblades and powerfists
6 fucking years later I'm still mad, fuck you Tiy you good for nothing, puppy killing sack of shit. Also go back to gradeschool and pass your first year of biology.

Fuck yourself nigger this is a Terraria thread now.

The game does have powerfists, though. And gravity hammers. And chainblades too, I think.

Apex GF tho

I don’t have a pic pls help

How about no, we're being bitter about what should have been a better game

It never was going to be a better game. It was a me too project from an ideas guy who claimed to have worked on Terraria, when all he did was to rip off sprites from final fantasy. He was a con man all along, down to his idea of making Terraria in spess which is already a derivative concept.

Shockingly I like starbound over terraria but there is so much room for it become better than what we got

No. It fucking failed at everything and hilariously enough Terraria picked up. That's not even going into all the fantastic mods like Thorium which adds even more to the alreqdy bristling content in the base game. What the fuck was Chucklefuck thinking with random generated weapons and shitty unbreakable boss areas?

>remove unique racial abilities
This will always make me so fucking mad. The race/species mechanic interested me more than anything else in the entire game, and they trashed it for no good reason. Fuck chucklefish.

Thankfully you can mod that shit back in again, but that doesn't excuse them removing it in the first place.

Oh you mean worse Terraria?
Well, except for the vore mods, I guess it IS better than Terraria in that regard

I remember busting a nut to a pic of a girl star-person thing a couple of years ago. Good times. Hope the game’s good

>Thorium
>fantastic mod

>Terraria mods
>good

I want to say "Well, it could have been worse" but if I said that I'd be lying. It could have been good, but we got shit instead.

Terraria is the one game I always play fully vanilla.

>That one hidden Visual Novel arcade cabinet
Fuck that game. I always dread finding it whenever I fly my mech

In starbound I could slap on some random mods and maybe play it solo for an hour with a fresh character while I honestly will never play terraria again unless a friend says they want to first

>tfw asleep on bed with laptop on charge, pupper chewed threw it when I was asleep, can visibly see sparks off the charger but dog is fine

This secret is stupid

Call me when the exotic goods mod gets updated

>every planet's underground is the same biome

Wasn't the original coders a pedophile who was grooming underages on their forums? That's why Starbound now is so drastically different and shitty compared to beta.

>crystal planets never made it into the game
Fuck

more like every planet is the same except the color of the dirt

What?

Every time I see this brought up I never see any proofs.

You can find crystals on volcano planets

>there is more underground vareity in terraria

how can you fuck it up this bad.

why did she spill ice cream on her hoodie

the game is the same since beta. it just has a ton more content. i like the game for what it is, but it isnt what the kickstarter advertised it to be at all. it's too game-y. i adore simulationist mechanics like dorf fort and expected it to be as such (just as minecraft was supposed to be), but it's still a fine game. just earlier i was telling a friend about it and came to the realization it and subnautica are basically the same game in different settings.
still wish things were more simulationist

tfw no erp servers

her giant cock knocked over her ice cream cone

cute. wish she was my friend

>Bought game just after it was released
>Played it for several hours
>Comfy af but no content so I'll just wait
>Hear some shady sutff about developement
>Come back years later
Turns out it's still exactly the fucking same besides some shit 'hub' and an ever shitter 'prologue'.
Could someone give me a quick run down on wtf they were doing for 5 years?

...

They made the game worse

counting their money
furnishing their daycare center
banning dissenters on the forums
etc.

Short answer is nothing. In the sense they were adding in stupid shit like the retarded story, shitty side characters I don't give a shit about and you being special chosen one. It's got nothing that makes Terraria amazing.

at least the OST is still nice i guess...
youtube.com/watch?v=RIAe9chD88I

How easy/hard is it to host a server for Starbound?
Should I try hosting one?

Don't forget abusing animals.

When your only advantage over Terraria is giving me the ability to explore multiple planets but give me 0 reason to leave my starting planet then I'm just going to go play Terraria

Killing animals*

>furnishing their daycare center
is possible to make an office look this childish beside tea & noms of course

Post cute Florans. Hylotls can come too if they're quiet.

>those dividers
It's like they were meant to be knocked over.

>Hates xenos so much that she wants to awaken an elder god

No. It's le debt face.
Since the only discussion that can be made of this game on /vg/ are waifus and porn, then that should be a tell tale sign that the game sucks.

That art makes it look like she's committing sudoku. She also looks like a damn xeno too.

>Terraria being on the same world manages to be more unique with it's many biomes than Starbound which has a playground of a literal galaxy
OH I'M LAFFIN.

If hating xenos makes you look like a fucking disgusting faggot, then I'll fuck every bird in the galaxy.

there any sources out there?

Starbound somehow forgot to be a fucking video game
Basic game design states you implement game mechanics first and add stupid extra shit later
For some fucking reason Starbound skipped the 'mechanics' bit and so we're left with an empty sandbox where the only thing to do is play dressup and

Don't bother, user

Multiplayer and starbound doesn't mix well. Else people would still play the game

All of /vg/ is screenshots and porn, what's your point?
