So apparently they've just kinda' casually added in physics as a kind of major feature. That, uh. Should be interesting.

[Darkmere]

They've mentioned low-G planets in the past. I think since the comment was about variable planets being in "again" and Tiy mentioned not wanting to do a trailer without combat mechanics (including the physics thing), they just jumped a pretty big hurdle.

Lots of the rest looks like polish and simple data entry... *strokes beard*

Yesssssssssssssssssss...

[Niveras]

Somethingsomething unrealistic!

How so?

Ehhh I think he was going on how close the planets would have to be to be that big in the sky.

It would have to be driving distance close.
That is ridiculous.

Or really, really big planets.

Or the atmosphere is actually a very selective electronic giant telescope.

Or they are just types of birds.  One might fly down and try to eat you.

somethingsomething atmosphere something magnification something handwave somethingsomething this is not the physics you're looking for mumble

Also, we're talking about logic and realistic physics in this universe:

Now, now. This is the internet, there's no reason to let gameplay or suspension of disbelief get in the way of a good complaint.

I suddenly hate this game because humans can't leave our own planet. Starbound is so unrealistic...

The "Why-are-we-arguing-logic-in-a-work-with-x" argument is always on unsteady legs.

Giant planets in the sky break my immersion, robot William Shakespeare is just awesome.

Wut? We have left our own planet, what nonsense are you speaking?

If you mean going further than the moon, the tech is there. Just not the money or the will.

This game is about faster than light travel to other planets! It makes no sense! Etc. 

I was more poking fun at people who are really damned determined to find things to hate.
