Yeah. Not touching this with a standard issue 10' pole until lots of reviews have come in.

Dev. Hell for 6 years is a huge red flag.

Closed beta starts on Monday. You can retrieve your Steam key from your Picorama account(for previous purchasers) which get you access to the game.

I seem to recall being a bit interested in this a while ago but doing some shallow research and noping out.

It still intrigues me. I am now way to lazy to do ANY research so the Cole's notes on shenanigans?

Also, in the middle of the video the character gathers up a bunch of bees and kites them like an old school wizard quad kiting in EQ. Classic stuff lol.

Are you purposely distorting the information or are you just talking out your ass? You make it sound like dev hell is the same when its a company vs when its 1 person. The game was decent for exploration/coop when it came out 6 years ago and I think it was only $20 back then? I easily put 20 hours into it, mostly with friends.

A game dev going silent for six years certainly counts as development 'hell' to me. Most people considered the game dead or abandoned.

I am glad it is not, it was cute and had looks fun. But I will wait until others have tossed their money into it before picking it up.

Random, inconsistent updates with new stuff and people consider it dead? Nah bruh. Maybe a small subset, but the hype was always there.

I really don't get your concern. This game has a cult following for 6 years, people still play this game, and you're over here wondering if it'll be decent enough to pick up. Christ dude.

If, and only if, the price gets bumped up for you plebs who didn't get in on it 6 years ago, would be the only reason I would hesitate. If its $20 its a steal.

Plebs. Heh. Good one. I guess if we come in late we will have to eat ketchup sandwiches for a week to afford it.

You sound like a shill, although I know you aren't. But you guys inadvertently answered my above question, albeit in the most retarded way possible.

You're welcome.

I'm not sure how I sound like a shill. The game has a cult following for 6 years and people haven't been able to buy it for the majority of that time. I was just arguing the point of this "development hell" for a $20 game with a cult following. Its just a stupid argument. If people want to take a wait and see approach that is fine, but shitting on a game for some terrible reasons? Fuck off.

I was a bit curious.

Comments on reddit seem a bit outraged. some major design changes from alpha to beta, that apparently are for the worse.

It's really puzzling at the changes he made. The alpha had a really great system in place, and just needed more content. The best feature of the game, procedural generation, being disabled is so dumb. I don't hold out any hope on him coming to hide senses and reverting the changes.

Hopefully, Hytale doesn't disappoint like this game has.

so no character levels, no progression, no procedural content. it's basically an sandbox exploration game, like knytt stories. how disappointing.

The 10' pole strikes again!

Looks like he removed everything everyone loved about the game, doubled down on what they did not like, then shoved it out the door.

On the one hand, I am a little sad that I missed out on the original gameplay. The base design of the Alpha definitely appeals to my ARPG instincts and a progression system is the fundament of a great game. I've recently started playing Terraria again with a friend, and the progression system in that game is what sets it apart from all the clones it has spawned, as well as all the other 3D voxel based games. Terraria is the undisputed king in my opinion.

But, holy shit, am I glad I have not bought into the beta release now. The whole "equipment and items reset between areas" has to be the most retarded design decision of all time. I suspect it was made to make a fixed MMO map for an increased, all-inclusive population, but sacrificed everything that actually made the game interesting. Watching that guy cross a border on his boat and see it disappear was just a facepalm.

Whether it was programming limitations or horsepower limitations, it really looks like this game has been.......ruined.
