I really had no idea. Don't want to get downvoted to oblivion for this, but this kind of stuff doesn't erode my joy of the game, or make building my cute lil pixel homes any less fun and rewarding.

These days, in general, there's lots of looking down / belligerent beratement of people who like things that were incidentally made by shitstorms. Sorry in advance I suppose.

Yeah there's nothing wrong with enjoying the game in its current state, I did too from time to time before it was totally abandoned. But don't be surprised if you have trouble finding other people who want to join a community to talk about this abandoned game. I really wish a spiritual successor to Starbound could be created by another studio but as of right now it only exists in this bland and broken state with the awful forced story layered on top.

Since Lemmy is filling the slot Reddit has left behind, I'm just trying to find the people who have jumped ship from there, where the SB subreddit is quite active. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ
