Re: The "Game" in LT
+1 reminds me of years past
IVE BEEN OUT OF MY MIND A LONG TIME
I really like the idea of starting the game as an NPC. This could be a very interesting way to bring in some "backstory". For instance you could start off with a couple of people really hating you because the NPC you took control of cheated them before you started. Or on the flip side you could have people that really like you because "you" saved them at some point in the past.
There's your ship, there's the universe - off you go!
I agree with what you say, Nathan. I'd like to play LT initially using what Josh considers to be his defaults for the game.Talvieno wrote: ↑Wed Aug 02, 2017 6:04 pmNo, I don't disagree that there should be sliders. I just think there should be a default, "skip all this confusing stuff" option. After all, the first time you play a game like Skyrim, you do it without mods so you can get a feel for the game and what it's like.
Well then I guess you'll be skipping beta then? I imagine the "defaults" when beta is first released will have some serious imbalances and the testers will have to help josh and co find better, more enjoyable balances that give the game good pacing, a good difficulty curve, good distribution and variation, good and intuitive UI, maximize fun, add missing features, remove or change bad features, and how to keep it interesting for a very long time. I imagine some people will already have a few hundred hours of play in between the beta release and official launch.Victor Tombs wrote: ↑Wed Aug 02, 2017 6:54 pmI'd like to play LT initially using what Josh considers to be his defaults for the game.
That's likely to be the case as far as I'm concerned, Hyperion. I will certainly install the beta but it's unlikely I will start a serious game until the official release.
