  1. Preemptive sorry for anyone I offend, I've been meaning to make a thread about everything for a while since I've been with this game since it first was released in early December. If this gets closed or deleted, so be it.
  2.  
  3. I bought Starbound when it was released with high hopes and, at first, they were completely warranted. The game was something completely different and although half done, it was still so much fun! To this day, I have 631 Hours logged and don't regret a single second of playing it. I'd like to think I experience every possible facet of the game, meeting people in the community that I could have never imagined I'd meet and making friendships that will last for a long, long time.

  5. With that said, I also am very doubtful in the continued success of Starbound and as of recently, am saddened to see where its fallen. The reddit, for example, used to not have anything on the front page with anything lower than 150 or 200 upvotes and was a legitimate challenge to get on. It was filled with original content and was fun to look at. Now, threads asking for help with installing the game rule along with posts by the AutoModerator. The reddit is a parallel of almost every section of the community, whether its modding, servers, roleplaying, ect. and thats really saddening.

  7. Theres been a ton of reasons for the continued death of the game, so to speak. A lot of people say its because the lack of updates and I tend to agree with that. Although there has been a steady stream of updates, they aren't exactly what I'd imagine as fulfilling what was originally promised. I was told there was going to be a story that would blow me away, I could beat the game without harming a single person, there'd be massive amounts of npc's who'd give quests, be interactable, and that there'd be massive cities.

  9. Because of the lack of these updates, the game went from riveling TF2 and Dota 2 for daily amount of players to becoming a niche for people who want to roleplay things, most of the time it being ERP *shudders*. I want to reiterate, I WANT to love this game and am a decently big part of the community so I felt it was about time that SOMEONE said something before all the old members leave and are replaced by people spouting garbage about how they hate the devs.

  11. I think I speak for everyone when I say, there should be no more excuses, no more lies, no more rhetoric.
