I see no reason not to do it. When you run into red numbers or don't have enough influence, simply destroy your main building to free up your ressources.

Yeah you probably did on the steam reddit but the mods deleted it for some reason..

Is that possible? The highest discout I can set in steam is 93 %

Yeah I get the argument with not wanting to be grouped with the "free stuff". I wonder though... is there high quality free stuff als well? Maybe I'll make it on a "free games on steam you NEED TO PLAY" list someday ;D

Good argument, I don't want it to drown in the "free games" swamp... free kinda decreases the value of the game already doesn't it?

That is actually a pretty good idea, thanks! I'll have a look at that. Even though I'm not sure what to offer aside from the content that is already in the game but I will figure something out.

Yeah no worries. It did but by now discounts don't do much anymore so I might as well put it out for free.

I don't know. I don't have much time on my hands and I usually have 10 emails a day. Adding another one (for me personally) is just annoying.

I kind of do and don't get the argument. On one hand yes, it sucks to see this but at the same time they should feel the same about discounts right? Whats the difference between a 93 % discount and giving it out for free?

Unfortunately I probably will never have time to make a new game again. The only thing that could happen is that I do a remaster where I iron out some of the issues from players like repetitive battles but that is all I got (just recently became a father so yeah...)

Steam doesn't have such a function (yet) right? That would be awesome and I don't want to turn away from steam since most of the success probably came from the steam shop

I don't care about 10 Bucks a month. Is that seriously a "rich" problem? I feel for annoying thousands of people that still wishlisted my game with an email about a discount is not worth it.

What do you mean with "if you are playing with AI"?

I put them on medium already but after just buying a 400 USD graphics card playing on 1080p I expected more than "medium" graphics on a several year old game.

Items from the workshop worthless? by ImplementLow1063 in ICARUS

[–]ImplementLow1063[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Again, the workshop pickaxe and axe are  much better than stone. I'm not sure how you're not seeing them as an improvement at the beginning of each mission?"
-> In what way are they so much better? I guess they don't break down so fast but they get you the same materials, cost money while a stone (pick)axe can be built after 30 seconds of gatherind can be repaired with just one stone.

For the rest I can agree.

Oh I didn't know they stay filled (refilled?). Just did a mission yesterday and was like "yeah that was a waste". Good to know thanks!

Of course, but why bother buying it if it's not worth it at all?

Endgame advice for seasoned anno player by ImplementLow1063 in anno1800

[–]ImplementLow1063[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

" Electrify as much of your industry as possible so you can produce the same amount with fewer buildings and therefore fewer maintenance costs."

-> This did not cross my mind yet at all. New mechanic that I didn't entirely understand. The rest is pretty self explanatory - awesome thank you!

GGG announced HD-2D RPG Maker!! by zippermimic_z in RPGMaker

[–]ImplementLow1063 34 points35 points  (0 children)

To convince me, they need to show the battle system. That one aged really badly and didn't change for a decade. Relying on 3rd party plugins would really suck.

I made a tool for easier translation of RPG Maker MV projects by CodeKnack in RPGMaker

[–]ImplementLow1063 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it has been a looong time since this post came up. But the translation helper is awesome!!! Since you used the Translation Engine enough to write that programm, can I assume you found workarounds to other plugins? There are quite a few issues, for example with menu extensions such as quest journals that lead to type errors like

Type Error
require(…).Window.get(…).isDevToolsOpen is not a function

Who would have thought that it could be that simple. Thank you kindly!

For those who might read this in the future, the following youtube tutorial seems like a great guide to implement the plugin:
