Does anyone else think the pixel pods feel a little too "game-y" and detract from the atmosphere of the game? I'm talking about the actual capsules you have to break to get pixels that are scattered around on EVERY world, and use the same sprite for every world. Why is it that every planet has different trees, skies, animal-npcs, ground blocks, and gravity, but use the same two or three sprites for every single pixel pod across the known galaxy? It doesn't make sense that a game that emphasizes randomness so much (by switching up the level art) should use the same three sprites for pixel capsules for every single planet. It almost pulls you from the game and makes you wonder "who put these here", and I don't think that that's a question the devs can really answer adequately with their current approach to enriching the game's lore. And let's be honest, who thought pixel capsules were a good idea in the first place? There HAS to be a way to gain pixels in a more meaningful way. Is Pixel shortage even an issue mid-game? Can someone make a mod that just removes them outright? That would be amazing
Hey pixel shortages were a major issue for me. I finally made enough to make that platinum pick I always wanted til' my character was wiped. But yeah I somewhat agree. Perhaps some kind of plant or rock you can strike to get the pixels instead of the capsules?
The reason pixels were a shortage for you, is because you were so early in the game. Once you start passing first Tier you will be swimming in 100,000 + pixels. You are suppose to struggle early game
Hmm.. You may be right. I never found them that useful anyways. With only like 10-15 pixels per pod It wasn't much of a help when I was in need of 200+ pixels.
You shouldn't expect massive amounts from a single pod. You need to dig underground and you will see 20 - 25 pods in one confined place. You have 10 pixels per pod and 20 pods. All of a sudden you have 200 pixels. Keep following the cave you will see hundreds of pods scattered around
That's another thing. I can never find any good caves. They all go down for a few meters or at best maybe a nice walk down a tunnel. You know how hard it is to find platinum on the surface? After that wipe I decided it was best to wait until the game is fully released or at least til' they quit the character wipes.
Don't look for anything on the surface [besides chests] Just keep digging straight down and you will find a huge cave network. Going down a few meters only you will find nothing.
i (sort of) take back my earlier post. I was exploring a cave and it was lined with like 15 medium sized pixel pods. It made me happy.
