Some folks have likened them to Obsidian, isometric rpg to third person scifi action RPG.

If the mechanics are ok, they have done a wonderful job of writing in the past so I’m optimistic.

Fingers crossed!

I’m all for new takes on the block game (been looking forward to Hytale and will definitely give it a go sometime in the near future) but after watching the trailer…

It would be hard for me to tell this isn’t Minecraft if I didn’t watch or look into the game on a semi regular basis. It looks incredible derivative.

I’m not saying it’s necessarily in need of the copyright strike I don’t know the rules, but I’m not surprised it got one.

So. Immediate feelings of outrage followed by a mental shrug post trailer viewing.

I think they are implying that no matter which shooter it is, most grandmother’s will have absolutely no clue at all. And, that would imply your mentioning the UI is wildly redundant or misguided because any analysis beyond “shooter” is waaaay out of Grandmas depth.

The XKCD just uses an example of people talking about details that are obviously nonsensical to anyone outside the “in group” (molecular sand lattice science people types).

You with your game knowledge, fall into the “in group” in this instance and the additional details are superfluous.

Don’t think it was a dig at you, just a noticed behaviour. We all do it, especially with topics that we are interested in.
