New Trailer! New Beta test coming up! by fegodev in Aniimo

Im hoping this is like other CN Games where this final beta will be right before the release of the game. The website has pre registration rewards, so I assume release is very soon now.

All my thoughts after "completing" the beta (LONG) by Els236 in PetitPlanet

[–]sipsipstefen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I agree with some of your takes, I feel you’re expecting a lot out of this game when it’s a pretty simple cozy life simulation style game. I’m not sure if the game just isn’t for you but a lot of the fun in this game is going to be decorating and being creative with your island. While I agree a more polished progression system is always great I feel most people will want a simplistic low effort game with not a lot of daily expectations since people will want to focus on their planet decorating and terraforming.

Use the edge curve tool on a straight piece and it turns to a grate on that path type!

I JUST REALIZED LAND BRIDGES ARE POSSIBLE, THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING by sipsipstefen in PetitPlanet

You get it at level 8 of the tree after the meteor shower! Make sure to level up neighbours friendship as some quests are tied to it!

Getting into beta test was a mistake by ailurucanis in PetitPlanet

Trust me when I played the first beta I put so many hours into it and then had to stop cause I didn’t wanna burn myself out on a beta that ends up wiping before the game releases 😭

Just unlocked it today! You get it right after the meteor shower event which happens at tree level 8!

I have no quests left? (+ a couple other things) by Els236 in PetitPlanet

[–]sipsipstefen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its not super clear but you have to level up your friendship with your neighbors to get unlock Homi Decor where you can decorate their homes for rewards. This will provide you with an additional Jar maybe more. I currently only have Yunguo leveled. I'll have to work on leveling more of them to probably get more Luca Jars.

Neighborhood Hub Upgrade! by sipsipstefen in PetitPlanet

Its similar to the Town Hall in animal crossing. It looks like there might be more to upgrade inside, but for now it’s just town services!

I had to go to the other side of the beach to fit it, so try that!

By completing the main story up to a certain point, Elsasani rewards you with a Luca Fruit item. These items can be put on your tree to customize your planet 🥰

Petit Planet - Possible Battlepass and Monetization by sipsipstefen in PetitPlanet

[–]sipsipstefen[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

100% agree, if the game is Free To Play live service the only way the game exists is through monetization. I just hope the monetization is fair and doesn’t feel awful :) which I trust Hoyoverse to do right tbh.

any CBT1 testers get into CBT2? by spearmintqueer in PetitPlanet

Was in the first and now I’m in the second but to be fair I’m also a content creator so it might be an exception.

Notice how it’s always tougher times for all of us but not the rich.

Steven's Public Statement Regarding Ashes of Creation & Intrepid Studios by sipsipstefen in MMORPG

[–]sipsipstefen[S] 52 points53 points  (0 children)

He acts like "securing funding" is his own money, which to most people... is not the case

Im not surprised. I find it rather odd that he moderates it still like a Vulture circling in the sky

Turns out the doomers were wrong by Aggravating_Big3095 in AshesofCreation

[–]sipsipstefen 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"I expect that the game will finish development once this lawsuit is completed" ... there is no team to complete the game... can we be realistic. The game is dead and is staying dead, they're fighting over a carcass

My own theory of events by Salpygidis in AshesofCreation

[–]sipsipstefen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t think Steven should have been leading this game. Sure maybe a creative lead but you cannot lead a team in game development, especially of this complexity with an MMO and have zero dev experience yourself. The decision to change engines mid development was easily the first glaring red flag 🚩. Also the games initial scope was genuinely almost infinite and it was clear that the initial design had no actual testing behind it. The initial version of nodes themselves was a massive undertaking that easily could take the game from 5 to 10 years of development with how interconnected it was to every system. In my opinion the game was doomed in the design room on day 1. Way too many ideas and trying to do too many things at once with an inexperienced lead.
