Plz don't add any Mary Sue races, devs.

I keep seeing suggestions for things like super powerful space werewolves and cute cat people, etc. These don't really add anything to starbound and are just people trying to get their ideal character into the game.

I hope that if/when the devs do start adding new races and if they read the forums they only take parts of the suggestions and not the whole idea, that way they can modify them so they don't look like they were ripped from an anime or furry fiction or w/e.

 

people can do what ever they want. you don't want to see them? leave. because weather you like it or not, they will be put into the game.

 

yes... because the developers will be putting every suggestion they see into the game.

 

if you don't like a character don't make one, let people enjoy the game their way, you know, like everyone is entitled to?

 

Tiy wanted to add a Penguim Race HARD Mode instead of the fossils for the new Goal. eheh

 

Those are simply suggestions, there is no evidence that they will be put into the game. Check your facts first.

 

1 Mil stretch goal maybe? I would totally be down for some serious penguin adventures.

 

you know what... i like you... *follows*

 

mods.

 

A mod is not the base game...I don't even.

 

a mod is a hell of a lot harder to make than a text wall with a few pictures.

 

Mod=vanilla game!? in what dimension? their obviously 2 different things

 

lolwut?

Suggestions are purely suggestions.
I'm pretty sure there's stuff in the suggestion section that are:

a. Copyright infringing
b. So stupid or OP that it'll never happen
c. Had little to no thought put into it
d. All of the above

Just because you see people wanting a race of MLP creatures, werewolves, vampires, Charlie Sheen, or a race of intelligent turds doesn't mean any of them will be put into the game.

 

i want all of that... excluding werewolf, vampires, and charlie sheen.

 

I never said anything about the base game xD my point was that weather this guy liked or not, they would be put in (BY MOD OR OTHERWISE!~) <= I italicized that just for you

 

Also, mods are optional so... we do have a choice of if we want it in the game or not.

 

i never tread suggestions as if they are things that should be in the game. I always treat them as an entertaining way to past the time, brainstorming, spriteing, etc. its fun

although there are the odd few that actually make me think it would go really nice with the base game. but there are a lot of criteria for that to happen

 

Though you didn't say that you were referring to mods, you also didn't say that you WEREN'T talking about the base game. The fact that the OP was talking about his hopes that the devs don't add all those suggested races into the MAIN GAME the way you replied made it sound that way.

And also because mods are optional he does have a choice, we all have a choice, whether we want those races in the case they do become mods for Starbound to be in our games.

 

that still doesn't change the simple fact that anybody can post what ever they want

 

Although I completely agree, if the modding api they release is as great as they say it is, it might be surprisingly doable for an inexperienced (but dedicated) modder to make a new race, provided they have the materials and the wiki-know-how. I know that it's supremely easy to add a race/animal to a game like dwarf fortress through an edit of the raws because of the way Toady designed the game.
On that note, popular races that Tiy most likely isn't adding will probably end up in the list of modded-in races very quickly, including wolf-people, cat-people, and even that turtle thing.
