The next item you need will be six or eight or more jumps away however, and you'll only have fuel and food for three jumps. These items are marked on your starmap one at a time, giving you a destination to aim towards. An ID card, a mouse ball, a water-based lubricant and more. You are a prisoner thawed and sent forth by a bureaucratic corporate nightmare - the voice of Stanley Parable's narrator is its avatar - to find the items needed to repair a monolithic spaceship. To be more specific, your forward momentum is provided by the game's crafting tree. Your motivating force on this hazardous journey isn't to hear more dialogue from Andrew Ryan or SHODAN, but to serve systems borrowed from the likes of FTL, Rogue Legacy, and other modern roguelites.

if you don't feel like buying the game (and dont have the money to buy it) then act like me.If Gone Home is the answer to the question, "What if BioShock without guns?", then Void Bastards is the answer to the question, "What if BioShock without story?" On a series of post-disaster spaceships, each rendered in a slick comic book style, you fight or avoid grumpy mutants, circumvent security systems, hack turrets, and rummage through bins like yer da after that time he accidentally threw away all his Euros on a Spanish holiday. I was like damn! thats gonna live a mark.ĭude you won't feel the pain till you really advance trough the galaxy. So when i lost 70 RPG ammo and 280 pistol ammo, 70 rifter. some little ammo randomly regenerate, 30 merits, and only your tools and parts will stay with you(plus junks) you lose all you ammo, money, warp keys, missiles( sorry i just want to say it in the easy way) your heartstarters, and everything you got on the ship you died in.

Oh well, at least I don't need to buy the game when it's free on XBL. The best I got in a couple hours/playthroughs was +150 health, which really isn't game-changing at all, since it's lack of healing that kills you, not your health capacity. Stealth is a waste of time when you can just spend a bullet or two to save 10-30 seconds.
You keep ALL your weapons and even get ammo refilled after death! The only thing you lose is money(merits) and perks/debuffs (which, most of the ones I've encountered, don't really help/hurt you that much) and whatever extra ammo you stock up on.
Originally posted by Silverbird:In most roguelites that you play, death is a refreshing experience, a chance to start over and rebuild your character.īut in void bastards, there is no rebuilding your character. It's not at all Doom style, and original Doom has much more heights despite you can't aim on y axis.Īnyway let forget Doom there isn't long distance, the heights are minimal so it's not flat, but not really involved in combats not even progression.įor pure shooting gameplay it is definitely limited, it is much more on strategy and tactics. just not into doom-styled shooters, it doesnt feel nice, it feels cheap and unfinished without aim-down-sights. That said, myself I'd like have an option to temper the pixel aiming for shooting and picking stuff, so some options for different more permadeath modes, why not. Permadeath and no save with fps is only for very short fps, and all probably use permanent unlock anyway.
It's weird that you complain on death when anyway you failed play much the game. You can pick path leading to heal points and medic ships that heal more and more as you progress. Food heal a percentage value, which means travel heals better. Secondly if lack of healing is killing it's also because you didn't manage well. Originally posted by Dorok:Firstly +150 is rather low, I remind 1500 HP. They could make him really haunting and creepy too, and make him say things like "why did you do this to me!" Or even worse, make him a liberal. But up until then, he wouldn't be killable, but you could knock him down with a good amount of bullets and he would stay down for a long time, or you could treat him like some other harder monsters and close doors on him and lock them. Make him randomly appear in ships up until the point where he died, then after that he would leave you alone or at that point he would be killable. I suppose one cool thing to do with dying is to maybe add a reanimated corpse of your previous guy that you would have to deal with. Or the one character that is really tall, which isn't really too bad I guess.
I just wish that some characters didn't have some terrible attributes, like one that has a view where you are looking through a circle thats somewhat smaller than the screen and the edges around it are black. Dying is punishing because while it gives you some ammo for certain weapons, it will randomly take away all the ammo for the other weapons.
