As if they'll keep their word about anything, the game's only 8 years past their initial launch debut.
"But but but S42 is done and now they're making the PU more quickly!"
Yep, and I'm sure they'll reach their 100 star system goal (lol) in about 40 years. Orrrr they'll just release 5-10 solar systems and then shrug when people ask why they stopped.
Doubtful, when does the Democrat party do anything except to look better by comparison?
No, this is how we discovered fusion.
So why have any combat at all?
It's just illogical, either the game IS about combat or it's not, they obviously chose for it to be about combat, I'm merely pointing out that about half of their gameplay loops would be improved by just taking the one final step that they refuse to do.
Sure if all I wanted was combat I'd play ME as well, it's my favorite game franchise, but that doesn't mean NMS can't or shouldn't have ground combat (cause it already does) or that it should be the focus (it shouldn't), but if they're going to make a game about boarding pirate ships then it should logically include some kind of gameplay surrounding that instead of casually strolling in the front door and requesting command.
I'm just asking for consistency, really. That's all.
Their vision includes fighting ships in space, fighting and boarding pirate vessels, fighting bug aliens on derelicts, and fighting sentinels of multiple varieties including walkers of various sorts, and you draw the line at fighting regular NPC's that could easily just be a part of the aforementioned factions?
I just don't understand the mentality, I'm not asking for Call of Duty: Atlas Warfare, I just think their vision already possesses multiple avenues of combat yet they have failed to include the one thing that would allow them to expand that gameplay logically to make things more fun.
Why would I want to destroy a ships guns and then walk onto the bridge when I could fight my way to the bridge with guns we already have and combat that already exists. How many weapons/weapon adjacent tools do you already have in your MT? I have over half a dozen.
Their vision is clear, and it includes combat as a central focus in every way except fighting pirates in ground combat.
Not creating the assets and AI for friendly/enemy NPC aliens from the big 3 was a colossal error. It could have created the foundation of everything from hiring gun hands at your outposts to fighting for control of pirate stations. Why did we never get an update for abandoned stations like we did for derelict freighters?
It seems like HG just doesn't see the value in creating things that are multi-use case. Every update is just one more completely separate gameplay loop that doesn't involve any of the others. So much could be added to different aspects of the game if they had just one or two more core systems that they used to influence their path going forward.
I hope LNF is better at creating a world where all aspects of their gameplay loops are integrated and emergent gameplay can occur.
Is there actually boarding party combat or do we just do the "blow them up from the outside" thing and then waltz onto the bridge and claim it like normal? Cause that would be boring as hell.
I want to fight my way to the bridge using the four different types of guns I have but virtually never need. Fight pirates, not sentinels.
Makes perfect sense, he's the straight man who's constantly surrounded on all sides by chaos and people he doesn't really jive with. He's caught between two worlds and struggles to find others that are on the same wavelength.
He's not as snooty as the high society he wants for himself, but he's also not as down to earth as most. His lifestyle and the people he's got in his life push his buttons which causes the reactions that make the character so beloved.
It's a shit post community, like... If you're worried about low quality/originality this isn't exactly your place.
Still Beans face is 99% of the reason for even using the meme. Without it the image just looks like two people sitting side by side instead of the cheating.
Been cooking lentils and rice as the foundation of my meal prep for years now as a lifter, it's good stuff! Best protein per unit compared to most beans. Love them.
