Ajosen Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Will there be a story mode, backstory or narrative related aspects to the game, or will the game be entirely sandbox? Will we find out why people are being copy/pasted onto asteroids? Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/75736-story-mode/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer ImDaMisterL Posted March 10, 2017 Developer Share Posted March 10, 2017 I really hope so. Although I'd be okay if we never got some deep lore, at least some lore would be more than welcome! I wouldn't even go as far as asking for a story mode, but maybe hints and pieces scattered around the world that helped us piece the story together would be nice.

Ajosen Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 I was thinking this game could be set in the far far far future. When events like the sun expanding and engulfing the Earth or the Andromeda galaxy colliding with our galaxy throwing the Earth out of its Goldilocks zone forcing humans to colonise asteroids to keep their species alive. something like that maybe.

Denneisk Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 What if we get a whole story about a previous group of Dupes coming to the planet to colonize but they die to some unknown disease and then all your dupes get that disease but they don't notice it until they try to disable the anti-spaceship gun where it turns out they're infected with something. They then go down deep to find a research station that's been destroyed and it's there where they see that they have green skin and bad boils (blisters? Gashes?) on their skin and then they all go out to find the cure and they go deep down underground to kill a giant fish monster and take its blood or something to make a cure. Then they get on the surface, build a spaceship, and fly out of the planet. Or just copy another story from some other video game.

minespatch Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 They could borrow elements of Wall-E as to explain why te explorers are so far out in space.

Zervo Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I'm not sure if there will be any story game mode. but i assume there will be hints and comic lore or something along the line like what they did in don't starve Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/75736-story-mode/#findComment-880923 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Klei would manage to mix such a grim lore with the eye candy environment.

Sonatta Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Correct me if I'm wrong, wasn't there a roadmap where they indicated that there'd be buried artifacts and/or mysterious objects scattered in the asteroid? Maybe if they added notes and made it like the dupes are actual space detectives trying to learn/find clues on what kind of civilization the asteroid killed when it destroyed the planet and collect research points to unlock tech and stuff from that civilization and make it their own. Just wishful thinking here Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/75736-story-mode/#findComment-880992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
