at least the price doesn't go UP over time like Factorio. truly israeli devs.
You voted for inflation.
I will never buy factorio because of that shit.
Check Factorio too.
Hello Games seems to be the same way too with their No Man's Sky comeback and their new game Light no Fire.
because they can. no outstanding debt
+ actual talent doing the game rather than management.
If you're the cook as restaurant owner, you will make more money.

NMS goes on a 50% off sale multiple times a year and doesn't have paid DLC. What are you talking about?
>$100 to buy the "full" game
>unoptimized garbage without mods
>still requires mods to be enjoyable
You'll never get a cent out of me Tynan. NEVER
garbage without mods
You can actually optimize it with mods?
>DLCs are just the biggest and most popular mods from back in the day with more bloat
Because Tynan's a fricking israelite
>can pirate the GOG version with all DLCs and get all the mods you need from outside Steam.
not even sorry about it
>have to fetch shit off the workshop with steamcmd
Fricking headache tbh
just use rimpy. it does it all for you
Very cool, thanks
Yeah this is the biggest reason for me not to play the game. I have enough money on my wallet, but I feel like it's not worth to pay a full price for a decade old game, not to mention the DLCs. Pirating is an option, but most of the mods only exists in workshop, and trying to rip steam workshop mods is a hassle.
>Why is this?
I'm paraphrasing, but the Devs essentially said, "frick you, pay me." They simply don't 'believe' in putting their game on for sale. They thick it's worth x amount and that's really all there is to it. I have mixed feelings about this sentiment because I'm not gonna deny that Rimworld looks like a lot of fun, but their IP is only as strong as their fervent and creative modding community.
It's an almost Minecraft-like situation: constantly taking credit for the hard work and passion of your customer basis, literally cashing in on other people's talent while you largely do jack shit.
>Yeah this is the biggest reason for me not to play the game
Same.
Even as we live and breathe the "starting bundle" of Rimworld + Biotech DLC is 66 CAD. That's with the 5% discount. That's enough to constantly persuade me against impulsively purchasing it.
>the Devs essentially said, "frick you, pay me."
god what an absolutely fricking moronic summary of what he said
>Our goal has always been to make a game that’s worth its full price. We want to attract players who are interested enough for that price to make sense for them
tynan's philosophy is that the game should be worth the asking price
those paying customers gave him a 98% positive review score on steam
call the hardware stores in your area and ask them if any ropes are on sale, you broke moron
Rimworld's base game is absolutely worth the asking price. What ISN'T worth it is the fricking DLC. Biotech costs almost as much as the game itself.
>reproduction and life stages
>multiples ways to raise children
>dozens of new mechanoids
>20 player-owned mechanoids to choose from
>complete overhaul of pawn generation
>gene and race framework with tons of base content
>10 new humanoid races including a completely fleshed out vampire race with custom workstations and research
>pollution system with new resources and biome adjustments
>literally hundreds of smaller systems to play with
>almost everything I mentioned has new assets or complete code rewrites, if not both
The amount of changes under the hood (code, frameworks) and the number of assets added to the game with Biotech is insane compared to the base game. I would agree with you if you said Royalty is overpriced but Biotech is worth every penny. You're completely wrong.
>The amount of changes under the hood (code, frameworks) and the number of assets added to the game with Biotech is insane compared to the base game.
As a modder, I can attest to this. Although it's worth noting that the base game was heavily adjusted for Biotech, and the DLC simply activates and connects to those things.
That's how all DLCs should be implemented under the hood IMO.
tynan is a moron and doesnt know anything about anything
he honestly didnt understand that people wanted to make permanent settlements in this colony simulator so he rebranded it into a "story generator"
also the game's saves gets bloated to shit with things that are kept around for no reason, look up how quickly saves become unplayable if you have a chicken farm
speaking of farms, all food sources are broken in one way or another, like a full grown cow only enough meat to feed 4 people for a couple days instead of the weeks it lasts in real life, while rice grown in hydroponics basins violates thermodynamics
the only thing that makes rimworld worth playing is mods, but its not worth the hundred dollars for basegame+dlc
>speaking of farms, all food sources are broken in one way or another, like a full grown cow only enough meat to feed 4 people for a couple days instead of the weeks it lasts in real life
Balancing decision. An efficiently-harvested cow in Rimworld can make 30 days of food for one colonist (via meals), which covers him for half of an in-game year. If you were being realistic, you could survive on the cow meat alone for 4 years, but then you have a massive balance issue since cows mature in 2 years, and meat's value is doubled by generic meal-cooking, giving you 480 days' worth of food from a 120-day, self-sufficient investment. This means killing 2 cows every 2 years covers your protein needs for 8 colonists. Pastoralism would be broken in this case.
Buy a PC that isn't shit, I've had hundreds of farm animals without any problem on my fricking steam deck
I've played it hundreds of hours of rimworld and Minecraft without any mods, your suppositions are based on something you made up in your own head. The mods I've tried felt out of place and detracted from my enjoyment so I quickly removed them. troony modders are too up their own ass.
>and trying to rip steam workshop mods is a hassle.
It is not a hassle. Rimpy will download whatever mods from the workshop for you and has a browser just like you're using steam.
What can you even do in this game? Can I rape? Slaughter and infest? Seriously I've seen this shit pop up constantly but can never discern any enjoyable qualities from it.
>Can I rape?
With RimJobWorld, yes. It should even be possible to de-limb a woman and make her into a baby factory.
>Slaughter and infest?
Not sure what you mean by "infest", but probably yes to both.
>Seriously I've seen this shit pop up constantly but can never discern any enjoyable qualities from it.
It's a settlement builder.
Killing and enslaving all the "male" of a tribal yittakin village and breeding the female
>Year is 2044
>Anon still hasn't bought Rimworld
>Still seething over the fact that the dev won't bring $30 down to $25 to make him feel like a good shopper
Of all the things someone could mold their identity around, why this?
wienersucking cornholing homosexuals like married my cousin.
OP should fricking die.
OOOOOHH!
Whats with that talk you prick? You better watch your mouth!
It's absolutely amazing how obvious it is he fricked some dude in prison, yet no one ever brings it up, not even in private. He hunts Vito like a fricking dog once he's outed. Tony at one point says its expected that most guys do gay stuff if they're in prison long enough, so you know its gotta be decently common. I fricking love this show, it's amazing watching them self destruct over and over.
Believe it or not devs are not actually obligated to put shit on sale if they don't want to.
Definitely not giving tynan shit ever.
But the base game is actually decent. I don't think it should be worth anywhere fricking near $100, that's batshit insane. But it's fun. There's so many obvious improvements that could've been accomplished, and a lot of lazy programming and content.
Toady however that created DF, you should definitely pay that guy. He should probably get a peace prize tbh. And rimworld lives in the shadow of that, and it will never live up to it not in a million years.
bought it for 15$ before it was on steam and still beta wont buy the dlc's ever cause theyre basicly community mods officialized (breaking the actual mods that used them to the point of needing the dlc now to use any mod that messes with races tynan is pretty israeli to do these things
i refuse to buy dlc that costs almost as much as the base game on principle. The free mods are good enough.
honestly the 10% discount thing is just a israelite move to make the game appear in the "on sale" sections and it's more offensive than just always keeping the game full price
For a game made by one guy, it's grossly overprized.
It's not like he has a team to pay. Greedy bastard.
Happily pirated it.
>he doesn't know
goes on sale
but it's on sale right now
>Game is free
>DLCs are free
>Game is fun once you mod it
What is the problem again?
>get coombat extended
>suddenly hunters can't hit animals while hunting
Please help me bros...
Anon, unironically skill issue.
Just give your hunter LMG :^)
When will the vehicle framework users finally make a good boats mod. I need my fricking boats. Im literally waiting for boats until my next playthrough
And I want a shuttle like those that advanced factions use.
Doesn't that already exists? Just reskinned drop pods or SRTS expanded?
I don't like SRTS because its shuttles are way too fancy. And I'd rather it use the vehicle framework mod.
Being able to drop SRTS would streamline the modlist...
Ok, shuttles and boats! we want shuttles and boats! Chop chop modders, I know you're here
Why do you need a shuttle when a helicopter works just fine as well?
idk homosexual, why do you need big tiddy anime fur-kin when regular colonists exist?
Why would it go on sale?
because the devs know no other game will allow you to capture young girls, perform horrific genetic experiments on them, and make them into your personal furry sex slave harem
prime life affirming self actualising androcentric slave dicky nom nom nom
Dev is an arrogant pretentious homosexual. His game is one of the shallowest, most shoddily designed accidental successes in existence and he thought himself good enough to write a book on gamedesign.
First result after googling "rimworld autodoc":

Thanks for telling me, lad. Been asking and looking for years back before I quit this piece of shit. Now I might finally consider playing it again once I pirate all the DLCs.
Has there been any serious improvements in the social and trait systems in the last couple years as well?
>Has there been any serious improvements in the social and trait systems in the last couple years as well?
Can't think of anything in particular. With DLC, people can dislike each other due to conflicting ideologies and children can develop traits while growing up, but that's about it.
I was gonna ask next about whether faction relations are still babby tier, and then about whether we still get 250 tribals spawning from 3 mud huts because the game balances against your wealth, and then ask if it's still impossible to make a humble psyker even if he's fricking ascetic, and then ask if there is yet a mod that removes all the trannies from vanilla, and then I realized why I ditched this piece of shit in the first place and that the answer to most or all of these will be no.
Has any modder made an autodoc mod yet so I can do a solo colonist playthrough without having to accept a second person to install all the bionics? I keep getting dogdhit recs for robot mods when I ask, as if having metal colonists instead of meat ones somehow makes it different.
Buy my book.
what are the mods you need to make this game less RNG-reliant and less of a pain in the penis to play?
I just want a comfy colony sim with a relatively "chill" combat here and there
You just play with Phoebe Chillax on easy, why do you need a mod for that?
Difficulty settings are a vanilla feature.
Just shove it on community builder, or whatever the difficulty name is
Mods are mainly to fix the absolutely infuriatingly braindead UI.
Just allow dev mod, see group of raider coming toward to your base? Spawn 999 man eater chicken.
The game is a consistent best seller with one of the most active mod communities on the internet, why would it go on sale?
No Steam achievements, no buy.
Buy the base game and pirate the dlc.
its on gog therefore it's free
