I have discovered a new love for it after previously abandoning it.

I want to enjoy the outpost building but they made it stupidly complicated.

How is it compared to Fallout 4’s settlement building? I was assuming they’d use a similar system to that

Good question! I found it more complicated because you have such a wide variety of resources needed to build everything and only so much storage on your ship so multiple trips and not as convenient fast travel if outside your system.

More than that though is the ridiculous cargo system. You have to create machines to pull out the resources from the ground then a machine to store them and a transport one to get it to the cargo link then it only goes to one side of the cargo link as an outbound resource. Just needlessly complicated and poorly explained in my opinion.

Volunteer PR work (including knowingly spreading misinformation) is extremely common for all fanboys, it’s a Nintendo specific thing.

EDIT: I meant to say it’s not a Nintendo only/specific thing. It’s true of all hardcore fanboys, even outside of game.

Black and white 2 is phenomenal.

bus_factor, 16 dni temu do games w First/notable 3D games where you could dive below water (and walk on land)

The first was probably Duke Nukem 3D, released January 29th, 1996:

If you consider their hacky approach to 3D cheating (they didn’t support one part of a level to be above another, and implemented looking up/down by just distorting the image, so all corners were too pointy), then you’d have to wait a few months for Quake.

The first actually 3D first person game was Quake, released June 22nd, 1996, and it let you swim:

DK64 comes to mind.

Also, Wave Race 64 (1996) is sort of entirely based on that… but the water physics were pretty cool at the time, and there were even parts where you could take a jump and dive under obstacles.

Half-Life 2 always stands out in my mind for this due to it being such a physics playground.

I usually hate water areas in games, though 😂 Especially the Zelda ones.

Running on water in NG2 is super fucking cool.

In The Wonderful 101, you can dive under water when you carry a hammer (heavy weapon), otherwise you swim on the surface.

Fond memories of drowning in Quake {1996}

Lighting Gun.

Those with 3D accelerators had transparent water and could see people under the surface and kill them.

Those without got screwed.

Why are you trusting the word of random people on the Internet

You can’t believe everything you see on the Internet, that’s how WWI got started. :)
