Well I mean, it's all "future", even the Florans, they're just savages in space. They still have space-age tech, but it's inspired by their culture. When you look at "Post-apocalyptic" you can't really determine what the source of inspiration is. It'll look like just a slightly more worn-out version of what everyone else is wearing, I think... UNLESS their attire was obviously taken from scraps, like shoulderpads made out of tires, armor held together with duct tape, and spears made out of stop signs, etc, then I could more immediately recognize the culture. If it was obvious that they're living off the scraps off their previous civilization, it could be awesome. I'd still like to see that 1950's mobster culture somewhere in this game, though. xD "Starting from square one" shouldn't be something that holds this idea back. I fear you've maybe done too much work in proposing this idea, as it's still just an idea. I imagine that if the Starbound team accepts it, they will probably redo a lot of the artwork, if not all of it. Of course I'd completely understand if you intend to make this a mod if they don't add it to the game. I think you'd be safe there, but they might look at all your work and figure that you have enough to make it as a mod yourself. it's just... unfortunate not much is up for debate. It seems less like a group effort and more like a personal project, at this point anyway.
Cool Idea! I have some Ideas for Sci-phi races but I don't think I have the patience to design a suggestion like this. Keep up the great work!
The armor and clothing have bits of scrap in them re-purposed to provide legitimate usage such as defense. Yeah, most of the content is shaped by other's criticism and such. But I do feel that I'd want basis of my ideals to be intact since I spent many hours on the art part.
You know what, I have a solution Camera and Quark. Base the Drale of some time period or culture and put them in the apocalyptic world. Boom! I just done-did both of your ideas. I do agree with Quark though, they do need even more apocalyptic armor and weapons.
I think the established culture right now is a post-apoc, industrial revolution? Yeah I plan on working on more equips around the time of vehicles
You have my support on this race. But I guess its more likely to see the Drale as a mod rather that the Devs pick it up. I still hope to see them ingame at some point. You have my vote. And I do love the work you prepeared for this sofar. It looks fantastic.
Post-apocalyptic 1950's mobsters. I just might cream myself... a... cream cheese bagel. Or... erm... I really like that idea.
I like the idea of this race... very good idea... very sensible... the wings are a tad bit much though, and would prove difficult to implement with armor. I'll be honest, wouldn't it make more sense if they had huge shoulder blades shaped like small wings. That would be difficult to implement too in game, but less difficult. The reason the tails of Apex and Avians made by Chucklefish are not currently being used is issues with them... if this race is added... they would cut the wings out until they find a way to add them in without problems, or not use them at all... Just consider that a side note... I still want this race in...
Yeah, I've stated that wings aren't a necessity. I've seen "footage" of equipable tails and they seem to be working. Currently trying to mod this in the meantime.
