    You're just going to have to accept that the game is never coming out. The sooner you accept it, the sooner you can move on with your life.

    Sounds like you've lost hope. And patience.

    No worries, Starbound will be out eventually. The moving on with your life part doesnt have to be completely devoid without the hope of something nice round the corner though :)

    Nice things don't happen in a universe where Starbound is never coming out.

    Not really. Plenty of Games have people working on End Game, or in this case mid game, content at the same time as they have people working on the beginning. It's just like how when a movie is filmed they don't work on the scenes in the order they happen.

    I personally missed the latest livestream, so I wouldn't know if this was actually said or you just misheard, but this is one possible explanation

    Still, it's a possibility.
    Although, like I said, you may have just misheard them.

    you can't have people working on random stuff if you have 3 programers you have to go from A to B if not you get epic feature creep

    Who said it was random? It could have been planned.

    Most of the content for the game is a glorified mod for the engine Chucklefish has built. Adding new items to the game essentially consists of dumping text files in a directory. Artists can do that. You don't need a developer for it. Hell from the some of the updates, it seems like mollygos has even been working on some of it and she's a community manager.



    If the devs are smart, and I'd like to think they are, they've probably planned out the numbers for most of the tiered armor. At that point, the work is plugging numbers into a text file and getting some art assets.

    What? What you just said has nothing to do with what I said or what I quoted you saying.

    No, I'm afraid that it will be an endless beta, where by the time the full game is released it will be old and everyone will forget it's a beta at all. And the devs losing motivation to develop. What happened with minecraft beta is horrible, even though the game itself had an intriguing idea.
