Ryuu just showed, as a matter of policy I brace for activity when relatively famous people arrive.

Aw shit, is this a confirm? Now I'm in tears. If this is a confirmed cancel I swear I'm gonna cry. I dont even care. About what, I dont know. But I dont.

You're panicking way too much... well unless the much feared cancel is Starbound in which case that's been a given for months already. That there is unlikely to be ever further official support for the Starbound mod, but that's not really news. (I'm looking for a new platform though)

if only spess engineers could have different races and thus you could make an avali race...

Probably been asked this like fifty billion times, but do you have any further plans for Avali once Starbound inevitably dies due to a lack of interest?
Or will they just be stuck to roleplays and as a Spore race?
Oh the dreams of a Tecarian mod somewhere, somehow.
DAMNIT I will never give up thinking I could build a good franchise around that universe if I had the means and opportunity.

so no, i don't think they're going to be stuck to only those.

Weeeelllllll... Civilization could offer an interesting perspective. I'm fairly certain that Civ IV has mod support. I cant be the only one who wouldn't want to have an intergalactic war with the Avali (Or not. That would be a death sentence.). Plus, if I remember correctly, most Avali have a grudge against Humanity due to them bearing a striking resemblance to their past ''benefactors'' (I couldn't come up with a good word), so would it not match up with the lore?

V and BE do as well.
BE apparently sucks. D'you know if it's any good?

It can, actually, remember when they accidentlly let that test model through that changed the player into a deer, and it actually
worked even though it had totally different skeleton and animations. But Spess engineers is also going to change a lot between here and launch. While it's tempting to "just stick a character model" into the game, I remember another game I did that for (...starbound).

It's a sidegrade from V that isn't quite as ambitious as it needs to be yet. Mechanically it's a bit different but very sound all around, the major patch they put vastly improved some minor annoyances that tended to add up at launch, the problem is that it has 0 character, in V every leader had a personality to them, defining traits and abilities, but in BE the leaders are effectively talking cardboard cutouts, the mechanics have to carry the game completely and just aren't far enough to do so yet.
I like it myself but I recommend you wait until rising tide before getting it, I think rising tide will expand the mechanics in a very needed way.

And space engineers actually updates fairly often, so modding in its current state would be a really time-consuming process of making sure everything always works.
once it's done though it could probably make a decent candidate i'd say.

I might get V soon then. I had IV a few years ago (love the opening theme), but when I got a new computer and went to install it after moving, I found out somebody stole it. So now I'm buying a new, digital copy.

And you'll forever be stuck to just thinking about it if all you ever do is just apply yourself to video games rather than anything productive

Shaming me for not chasing after things I can't have, it's a bold strategy cotton let's see if it pays off.

Whatever Surge.
I'm sure sitting around moping about the "things you can't do" while sat around on your PC will pay off in the long run.
