Karst geography always seems moderately unattainable with the "sheet"-based landscaping most games do. I don't know the actual term, but you know what I'm talking about, right? I'm thinking mostly of Bethesda games where you can only have sheer cliffs if you have rock/cliff objects sticking out of the (admittedly steep) hillside, but practically every game with a natural setting does the same thing. Far Cry 3 had cenotes that felt proper, but it still had cliffs you could butt-surf down elsewhere. Basically I guess I'm wondering how steep you can make your landscaping, and how stretched the ground texture will look.

nvining posted:We use triplanar texturing: http://www.volume-gfx.com/volume-rendering/triplanar-texturing/ is a pretty good write-up - precisely to avoid this sort of stretch. Sweet. I realize the approval of one random guy on the internet doesn't mean much, but I'm honestly not seeing a single thing about this game that I'd put in the negative column.

Yup, those are some real nice rocks. Rocks and terrain are one of the things I think about most, because when they're poorly done it just pulls me right out of the world and leaves me thinking that I can see right through that goddamn rock from the bottom. As per my previous post on the subject, Bethesda games are a big offender in that respect.

7c Nickel posted:That's kind of disappointing in a way. I imagine there are going to be occurances in the mines you would want to witness. I suppose instead of just shooting some dust out the entrance, you could bring up a special event window. Have a few underground sets ready and play out a little scene of a gas explosion or breaking into a Leng termite chamber or what have you. One cutscene is just the Dwarf Fortress intro movie.

Options include it bursting into horrible zombie-creating insectoid enemies or a bowl of petunias winding up in the outpost as well.

Seventh Arrow posted:That was like a decade ago Seriously. I used to be in the Steam-hater camp, because I'd heard how terrible it was that same decade ago and found that it would just hang literally all day trying to log in (My problem: I was using dialup). Upgraded my internet service last year, was persuaded to give Steam a chance (Actually it was more like I was berated for having a decade-old opinion of it), and I've never looked back.

But we don't know that the imponderable whims of great Cthulhu are necessarily bad for us! All those people who walked into the sea, never to return may just like it so much down there that they don't want to come back! This is a joke. I would be grateful if you laughed and high-fived.

ExiledTinkerer posted:For some reason, my irrational internal assumption had always been that CE would be interestingly served by way of a cadre of mini-modules ala some old P&P wranglings, or Gazette of Vignettes as it were, that were each self-contained fittingly outlandish scenarios big and small off from the "main game" so as to preserve that experience for all, but each deliberately based upon putting one or more systems thoroughly through the paces to feed into the main game down the line while the testers swirl their brandy glasses enrobed in miniature smoking jackets, so as not to overly chill their dominant gaming/drinking hand, after the fact to being savvy to the general lay of things whilst their erstwhile Day 1 Chums will be looking into the Ether fuming Abyss with reckless abandon in full. Really, nobody has done this outside of the Demo Module for Knights of the Chalice as far as comes to mind, but that doesn't mean fun can't be had right? You see those a lot in more traditional 4-X games, and it would be a nice feature here.

nvining posted:They have animations as well. The task icon shows up to indicate a site at which a task is being, or will be, done. That is a Good Thing that I wish more Citizenry Manager Sims did. Stalins Moustache posted:Huh. I just noticed this game, but I'm still not sure what other games it can be compared to. I love Anno, Tropico and the Sim City games(which is pretty much every good city builder there is Of the three, it's probably most similar to Tropico. However, the roots of the game can be more closely seen in Dwarf Fortress.
