Where did the hype go?
I ended up playing a ton of Everwind instead.
Same place as the other fotm games
Looks like a mobile game
The modding scene is very active. Pic related, a worldgen mod.
>>739298043I played this months ago.It was alright. Combat is mostly just zoning and knocking back enemies outside of their attack range, but I guess it wasn't made as an action game first and foremost.Crossbow was OP.Character creation was very nice.With how early the game is in development, I bet you will need to abandon your world for a new one once the big updates drop so there is no point in doing cool grand building projects.
>>739298417I should be impressed? Can you show something cool and not something that was in minecraft for decades at this point?
>>739298417wait this is a joke right?
>>739298417If it doesn't look like alpha cube world or beta/alpha Minecraft it's shit
>>739298764No he isn't joking.
>>739298531>With how early the game is in developmentIt's fucking wild that the game got SO MANY YEARS of development and 90% of it was Roblox/online shit that had to be canned.
I guess you could say it hytale'd it out of here
>>739299009fuuuuuuccckkkkkk, he isn't joking.shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttttttt
>>739298043imo, it banked too hard on modders to pick up the slack for what was otherwise a very boring game.
>>739298043Game is in a no hype zone. Devs are making huge progress, big updates incoming, and when they release the "story mode" all the streamers are gonna check it out, and the second wave of hype will come. Along with the new servers, new minigames, etc. It's never gonna beat moinkraft, becasue too much autism in this one, but it's gonna have more terraria like cycle, from update to update. I like it.
>>739298043Every single non-retarded anon could see how much of a piece of shit this game was going to be, yet someway somehow, the shills managed to get so many anons to buy it.
>>739299804They released it way, way too early, the core gameplay is great but there's just not enough content variety at the moment. Though that's what the backup Steam release is for once they drop a big content update.
>>739299890Because it was released, and even for early access its already better than minecraft in terms of overall gameplay. Movement, fighting, building, exploring, everything mogs minecraft. Minecraft wins only by overall ammount of content, but with how fast the devs are updating the game, minecraft gonna be behind in a year. Cope as much as you want, it's a good game, and it's gonna be even better in the future
>>739299904Absolutely true, and even Simon (Dev) said the same thing, but after they bought it back from Riot, and this is important, they didnt bought back the game, only the rights to the name, and everything that was made by riot in terms of content, engine etc is gone - dead.They just bought the rights for the game, and remade it basicly from scratch. That's why its so barebones rn, but they had to do it, to get some funding to get the game back on tracks. Along with hype people bought and they have now money for 10 years of development.
>>739300204I'm hoping they dip nicely into the Terraria side of things too so the game ends up a nice mix of Minecraft's core gameplay with Terraria's progression and combat variety.
>>739300256In interviews Simon said he specifically don't want to the game to be like Minecraft, but more like Terraria but 3D
>>739300032And here comes the seething indian to tell me I'm wrong actually.>it was released, and even for early access its already better than minecraft in terms of overall gameplay.What gameplay? Running around an empty world that looks fuck ugly, making bases that are intentionally designed by the devs to not have any depth, and wasting hours upon hours mining resources that only slightly progress your world?>Movement, fighting, building, exploring, everything mogs minecraft. Those aren't good things, you know?>Minecraft wins only by overall ammount of content, but with how fast the devs are updating the game, Which is way slower than mojag releasing their nothing content mind you, it's been several months and nothing actually new has been added to hytale.>minecraft gonna be behind in a year. Cope as much as you want, it's a good game, and it's gonna be even better in the futureIt will never be a good game, it doesn't have the autistic depth of vintage story where you can sink hours upon hours and still have tons of things to do, and neither does it have minecraft's reliable simplicity carrying it, instead all it seems to have is dog shit to show to us, and enough planned micro transactions to rival EA in greed.And a little question here if your game is that good: How come it's /vg/ general lasted less than a month, and everybody moved on from it instantly?
>>739300604gonna screencap you and I'll be back in a year to laugh at you.Also fuck you i'm not a filhty indian.You are whiny bitch bu't i'm gonna be helpful and here is the overall list of updates and what they did:Update 5 (Launching may 26)Immersive Audio & Emotes: Adds new sound layers for immersion and introduces player emotes.Launcher Upgrades: Introduces a version selector in the game launcher, allowing players to roll back and test on older versions like Update 4.Technical Refinements: World adjustments, technical performance fixes, and optimizations. Update 4Proximity Voice Chat & Emotes: Added in-game voice chat capabilities and new emotes for player communication.500+ New Blocks: Added over 500 blocks, including new dirt and fluid variations, sideways pillars, and complete block sets like Chalk and Cooled Magma.Alchemy & World Mechanics: Alchemy bench expansions (tiers 3-5), sideways pillars, and better fluid behavior. Update 3Environment & Generation: Added complex spawn locations for the Taiga region, updated Outlander villages, and expanded encounters in Zones 3 and 4.Combat & Vehicles: Upgraded vehicle gun radiuses and boost effects.Bug Fixes: Resolved issues with creature animations and added several performance optimizations. Update 2 & 1Customization: Expanded character avatar customization options.Performance: Fixed shadow issues, reduced stuttering, and improved server stability.Remember those are mostly engine updates, and work around core mechanics of the game, when they roll out content updates it's gonna be big.
>>739298043Still heavily in progress. The initial release was just done for the sake of releasing something functional and to earn back player trust.
>>739301126Wow anon, thank you for your very kind help with further proving my point that the updates are all nothingburgers with a side of air to them, and also, 5 updates so far that add literally nothing, over how many months have it been already?Regardless, I hope the devs are at least paying you good enough, not that it'll change the fact that you will live and die in india, but it might at least help you buy out some not-as-disgusting food.
>>739298043>Where did the hype go?Advertising money ran out.
niggers will do anything but play vintage
>Devs hype the game up>Spend half the year working on modding tools while vaguely hinting at some massive world overhaul and story content but refuse to show a crumb of itThat being said they are pumping out the QoL. I have no doubts it will be a big game in a year or two, but they are pretty terrible at selling it.
>>739301849>Everything except bosses is considered 'nothing'I wish Minecraft returned to its earlier roots where it was just an open world exploration building block game. And not becoming some kind of theme park where you rush to boss encounters and gearing milestones. The latter of which Hytale already does better anyway.
>>739304536Finish your game, nigga. I ain't playing your half-baked shit.
>>739304536I dont want to gather 50 items and handcraft castings and fittings and engage in 10 smelting minigames to make one tool. They took the survival elements to a tedious level.
has it had a single update
>>739306156Yes
>>739298043They were banking on modders to save it not realizing that if the,game wasn’t already fun most of them would just stick to minecrap
>>739298043Hype is never good The game will grow Don't worry
>>739300256>I'm hoping they dip nicely into the Terraria side of things too so the game ends up a nice mix of Minecraft's core gameplay with Terraria's progression and combat variety.This Minecraft is just boring as hell
>>739300565That's what he says but it's just not true, it's literally just minecraft with slightly more tedious gearing.
>>739298043Its got potential for sure.I was trying to work on making mods for it, but its enormous overly complicated thing requiring you to run custom modding servers via a very arbitrary setup to get your own code into the game and running.I dislike how enemy spawning works, I should not have to lookup guides on where enemy spawn points in structures are so that I can prevent spawns within a structure I've claimed as a house.
>>739298043>Early Access game loses public attention shortly after soft launch
>>739298417>the most bland shit possibleoh wow you sure impressed me there, I'm gonna buy 10 copies right now
>>739298043It didn't feel like the trailer. I knew it wasn't going to like it but I still had that minuscule bit of hope
>>739300204>they didnt bought back the game, only the rights to the name, and everything that was made by riot in terms of content, engine etc is gone - deadno lmao. they actually got everything. but theres basically two versions now, the legacy engine (before riot acquisition which had most of the content but was basically abandoned for the new one) and the new engine (which was new but barebones). they discarded the new engine and stuck with the legacy one because it had more development progress and the new one would require around 2 more years just to get it ready
saba played it once and then stopped doing streams for months, she hasnt returned, make that what you want.
>>739309076the progression is basically just half assed just to get it to be released in early access. its one of the things that would definitely revamped later on
>>739311525she was just that fucking lazy. it was even a miracle that she was entertained enough to get it to three episodes. thats the longest she ever had in any of her game playthrough
