You have your own space ship. I imagine you also have extreme environmental suits for walking around at high noon and sundown on planets close to the sun.

Temperature and hunger have been in for a while. They are optional but as far as I know it's only those two as far as survival aspects go. I believe the temperature mechanic was modified by the armor you were wearing and how "exposed" to the surface you were. Buildings and underground provide you with partial temperature mitigation, etc. There's radioactivity as well.

I'll probably try it just to see them, that doesn't sound like much of a burden and would keep me on the lookout for new gear besides "get the most defense, wear it, the end".

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

It's all just fluff to justify selling armored bikinis for the sexy robots and birds on desert worlds.  :P

Seems like you can, in fact, visit Endor-like planetary systems. I'm still offended. Somehow.

Why would robots even need bikinis? Why do they need clothing period?!

The robots were programmed with modesty.  ;)

Look at this image. Look at it long and hard.

That is your answer.

Jesus.

That's not Jesus, that's the definition of facetious!

Why are you setting up that joke?

This might surprise you, but I honestly don't know what you mean. That was my terrible way of dodging the fact that I completely missed the sarcasm in the post that started that whole discussion.

There is a joke you can say from what you said. I didn't want anyone to say it.

Okay, this game seems to be collecting a lot of goodwill so I'm starting to get curious.
I have purchased Terraria, but got bored of it quickly. I find the development path for weapons/gear silly and couldn't get motivated.

But this looks like a proper sci-fi setting. Is it similar? Exploit resources, advance your item crafting abilities, and invade endless, procedurally-generated dungeons?

Are there any good LP's I could watch?

I don't think there are any LP's yet, mostly cause its not out.  It sounds fairly similar to Terraria but more detailed and fleshed out(and sci-fi).

It sounds like its a bit heavier on the exploration elements(which is great, cause that is my favorite part).

Oh. Duh. Could have sworn I've seen it for purchase on Steam. Derp...
