Clopsy627 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I would be fine with even updated shipwrecked and hamlet what do you think? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikoFanboy Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 i prefer new game on an updated game engine, happily to buy it too including the alpha, DST is 9 years old already, adding more stuff can slowly broke the game plus I think the base game itself has too much content already, it could be difficult to add dlc on top of it and make the game progression make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a matter of if the game can handle it (like the inability of adding more than 3 liquids) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't really update DST like Rotwood they both run on same engine. but DST can't be updated cuz it'd break all the mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are SEVERAL games on the Xbox Series X/S that started out as only being Xbox One games that got completely free updates that changed their game engine and upgraded the game to Series X/S versions. Two of those games are State of Decay 2, and The Witcher 3. Are there any Sea of Thieves players here? If so.. maybe this article on why you needed to install a 100gb patch update may be of interest to you. https://www.purexbox.com/news/2024/02/sea-of-thieves-new-xbox-update-is-almost-100gb-but-theres-a-good-reason-for-it The game engine for Fortnite was also updated to run on Unreal 5 and uses the Battlefield games Frostbite engine (for lighting and detailed destruction) My point is that Klei is less likely to make a brand new game, and instead more likely to just upgrade the game engine for DST… Regardless of how many old mods that might break. That’s not KLEI’s job to fix- It’s the Mod Creators. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klei is absolutely not most developers. Klei is one of the ONLY companies I've ever come across that has put as much effort into keeping their game afloat whilst also making sure us modders don't sink. If I were to sit down and shift through and list every single little change, from code tweaks, entire function rewrites, asset updates, and... so forth, I'd be here for a while. I currently can't imagine Klei making any major changes that completely throw out their modding scene without a care. 54 minutes ago, Mike23Ua said: Regardless of how many old mods that might break.

The amount of times they've went out of their way to change things to prevent older mods from breaking is again, countless! Klei is totally amazing when it comes to keeping us afloat! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSneaky Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Imo there should be a steam workshop mods purge. Too many outdated/random character mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheggf Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Those DLC would be garbaggio if they just try to mishmash them together on the surface shard like they did with the ruins, and if they're adding more shards to servers I would much, much, much prefer they re-separate the caves & ruins. I think porting the DLC is a waste of time, you can just play Don't Starve if you want to play the DLC. It'll be a way better experience than whatever they try to scrounge together to function in the multiplayer branch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand me very clearly, I did not say that they DONT care about your mods, hell 90% of the games recent updates have been pulled from mods.. I said that they SHOULDN’T NEED TO CARE. There’s a difference there… And let’s say Klei sold majority of their shares to a larger company who wanted them to do things in a way Klei has no say over, (not saying that has or will ever happen..) But if it ever did, I doubt the newer company would be so courteous as Klei are with Unofficial player made contents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not it wouldn't have any impact on mods anyways, the game itself is like a mod, in terms of structure Edited March 11 by _zwb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
