"Pi?"Yes, this!
To arms! Pikemen, form a line, two deep! Handgunners, ten feet in front of the pikes. Fire a volley when the shadows close to distance, and fall back to the pikes. Once the volley is fired, the gunners will draw their swords, and hold the flanks of the pike line.FOR SIGMAR!
"SIGMAR!"
Are you really so salty about Starbound that you're hating on an unrelated developer for taking a publishing deal from Chucklefish? That seems more than a little petty.My biggest issue with Starbound is the lack of direction it has ultimately taken, and I attribute the bulk of the problem to this: the devs don't seem to have a concrete idea of what the game ought to be, and move back and forth on the whims of their players. They started off with an interesting but incomplete concept, but do not seem to have a clear, defined notion of what THEY want the experience to be, and so the whole project is as a chicken with its head cut off.
My biggest issue has been that a sizeable amount of the funds CF got from Starbound, which should have been used to hire some actual programmers, went instead into kickstarting Tiyuri's publishing company, so no matter how universally panned Starbound is, CF is going to stay in business which they have absolutely no business doing. People can't seem to make such connections in their brains though, looking at how Star Dew Valley is doing. I can understand wanting to support a developer, but when that developer makes such a bad decision as having Chucklefish publish for them, they really don't deserve the support.
