Starsector Review Explore the Cosmos™ Ruin Everything™ by SsethTzeentach | First Time Reactions 

Wait, so the devs basically gave everyone who watches SSeth's video a free copy of their game?!

@@kennandunn7533 Yes and no. When you start the game for the first time, it ask you for a key to put in. When you buy the game, you honestly only get a key to activate the game. But they did sort of give out the game for free, since the key Sseth put in his video still works.

@@kennandunn7533 Lots more sales with this exposure. The Dev deserved it, they are really nice people, The game was different name back then, and the dev on the forum is really nice.

I've read in some comments somewhere that the devs are the best! They appearantly send you a personal email when you buy multiple copies (for a friend or something) to ask if it a was mistake that you bought two copies. That's so goddamn commendable!

Holy shit

Well, a lot of Sseth's viewers are quite generous. So generous, they crashed that oldass pay site. I was one of them.

@@Sintarzus So accidental DDOS?

As someone who used Sseth’s code then later bought it myself, I can say for sure the marketing worked

I paid 15$, then played for 8 hours straight my first day, then paid 15$ more, cause this can easily sell for 30$ on steam like rimworld

@@breezy_g9463 Hats off to you good sir

Synthetik is easy to pick up and play, unlike this one, so… it should perfect for him!

i actually bought the game after using seths key its a great game

I bought multiple keys for the game and handed them out to random friends I enjoyed my fee trial so much.

@@squirrel_killer- hero of the people

But someone might be hurt. :(

@@DragoonBB Yeah and next that somebody, will be the guys who did the hurting.

If you hear a distress call in space, but pretend to not listen, then did that distress call even exist?

@@DragoonBB ​ 9 out of 10 those are pirate fleet or in star with red/yellow warning beacon, [REDACTED] fleet

You're not the boss of me! _oh god why didn't I listen_

yeah, i was thinking the same... awsome!

pretty sure he was thinking of Killer Queen BY Queen, which starts with snapping

@@MrPerson61 He got cowboy bebop, why not Jojos?

ONE OF US ONE OF US

I'm curious, what's behind naming a planet as Jerusalem?

Arsmaria Starlight something something for the land of the Lord, for glory something something

I mean, Sseth is a jew, so..

The down side of a lot of those games too is their ui and game mechanics take you a decade to learn. They all have amazing system but are some of the most new player unfriendly games out there XD I do wonder if a happy medium is possible.

@@RexZShadow I don't really see it as a downside, merely an aspect of what they are. Especially because that learning process is, typically, a foundational part of the intended experience. Which I find is part of that difference between old/new design styles. Doom Eternal has been a great example of this. Doom Eternal has tutorial pop ups every thirty seconds explaining its mechanics and how to defeat each enemy. Not because it's trying to hold the player's hand but because the process of experimentation is about zero percent of the point. The 'fun' is meant to be entirely in skillfull execution and the game's unafraid to make sure you get the point. Contrast a game like Starsector or Kenshi where "What is this and what does it do?" is central to the experience. Applying base mechanics to novel or unexpected situations is sort of the point. These the opposite to the above, where explaining themselves too much would destroy any semblance of the intended exerience. While there's a lot more some games can do to be approachable and legible, I don't know that 'new player accesibility' is really a very important goal, from any but a commercial standpoint. Nor do I really think that there's a good universal definition of that idea either. A game should do its best to cleanly and succinctly introduce a new player to what it is, but more and more anymore I hear people complain that what some games are is inaccesible to them by nature, and thus needs to change, which I find a rather toxic and entitled mindset. (Not, for clarity and being the youtube comments, that I'm linking you to said. Just observing part of the general wider discussion about the topic.) tl;dr: "It's complicated, but art isn't beholden to be for everyone, though being as legible as possible to its target audience is good practice."

Omg so you can just moth them?! (Some moths can mimic bat sonar with their organs to throw off their echolocation)

@@chazzwozzio Exactly. By the way bots can moth you as well. I was chasing my bounty that was faster than me. So i fired interdiction pulse only for the enemy fleet to do the same and avoid it.

40k. Not Fantasy. Total War: Warhammer 2 is about Warhammer Fantasy, my friend.

When i started playing Kenshi, I realized "Oh! I need to play this like Star Sector!"

Kenshi, Starsector, and Mount&Blade is my favorite gender

Or really Kenshi is Starsector but not in space

they are really long

@@milanjudak7574 And they are very good.

Maxor too.

ZETH HERE

I support to share this knowledge

Yeah I just got off Cracktorio addiction, and now I'm stuck with Cracksector. Just. One. More. Colony....

This isn't a weeb channel friend, I doubt the video would land very well

@@boof-7599 I know, just want to see them react to how much of a complicated mess it is.

*SPreAd ThE WEeb CulTUrE VIRuS.*

It's a battle royale story, where secret society mages summon magical mythological figure as familiar to fight for control of a "wish granter" that ended on some twist or two, with a lot of side-story, spin-off, and refresh as it goes though the usual ACG expansion of modern franchising.

No weeb stuff please

you mean like spinning things at certain speeds ??

​@@fonkyman Yeah, pretty much that is the only conceivable way to create artificial gravity in space, if you know of any other ways, I would love to read about it.

@@norXmal you said we have to evolve to do it... making a airtight structure of sufficient size and strenght to make rotational gravity is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.. its also completely possible right now...

@@fonkyman possible just not very practical I think due to the cost. Although other time of more compact artificial gravity would be ideal.

@@RexZShadow technology to do it already exists.. drones etc.. but greed of humanity/war is what stops us...

Don't listen to this guy. Instead, install mods. Nexerelin expands diplomacy to a incredible extent, and pretty much any other mod you find will be incredibly high quality and adds vast quantities of content to the game. If you ever grow bored, that just means you haven't installed enough mods. Also, Alex is steadily working on the endgame, and the main questline got a massive update only a few months ago.

@@melanoc3tusii205 I was just talking about the vanilla game as it is right now. Obviously you can install mods.

@@NicholasLaRosa0496 I understand. In that case, my comment serves to advise people that the flaws you outlined are not a dealbreaker.

@@melanoc3tusii205 Of course. The game is a work in progress.

Bro, what? This is a Sseth video. Half the internet already reacted to that shit..

There is a video guide on how to get them to work

@@Quadrolithium indeed i tried allowing for more ram but didnt work the game might start then crash so odd

Sorry, but you seem boring
