It's a lot of fun. I'm a guitar noob, and it's been great for me. The interface is 100x better than the original Rocksmith.

I played counterstrike yesterday and got my ass handed to me.

Tiy the developer of Starbound is talking about the beta while some other guys play the current version of the game.. happening NOW

That game doesn't look very appealing. What makes it fun?

Starbound? Or are you watching him play risk of rain? As changes they are making to the game as we watch, have to be pushed to Steam etc, so he is playing risk of rain between, in which Leth is a developer, along with being a dev on Wanderlust games.

I cant really begin to tell you about starbound, except that its a 100% sandbox, procedural generated game, with infinite building possibilities (ala minecraft), modability, etc.

I was talking about Startbound.

Dont know what to tell you, for me, its the most appealing game to be released in recent memory.

Did you ever play Terraria? It's basically a 2D version of Minecraft. You can dig/chop/smash just about every block in the procedurally generated world. There are resources like wood, ore, and stone that you can use to craft weapons, armor, tools, materials, etc. It's a ton of fun.

Starbound is essentially Terraria in space with a sci-fi theme.

Starbound is similar to Terraria in look and genre, (Terrarias artist is the lead Dev for Starbound) but in scope Starbound is the mountain, Terraria is the molehill.

Nothing wrong with Terraria, that's just how bad ass Starbound is. It does make a good basic comparison.

More Starbound hype! Totalbiscuit was givin a PRE-BETA copy to mess around with for the netx couple days until the official beta release on Steam. Speaking of Steam, Starbound will have Steamworks support, meaning automatic modding of all kinds via steam.

Looks awesome, I cant wait for an open beta.

Been playing a lot of d3 again, kind of shitty on my laptop but it will do for now. I'm excited to see how RoS and taking out the AH will effect the economy and game, but.. If this expansion blows, I will never buy bliz ever again. I still have a lot of fun with the game but it is way unbalanced. I heard from people rolling barb in the RoS closed beta that if you have a barb, you're gonna want to re roll.

and to me, barb is the BEST and most FUN class to play in d3.

Ive got a max level char that can do at LEAST mp3 of each class. (my Barb is my main i Can do mp10 if im careful)

So im at the point now wher eim pretty maxed unless i want to do Uber runs etc. Expansion looks awesome tbh. Lots of beta streaming on twitch.

I havent played with you in a while, what gear and skills did you run on your barb?

edit: yeah ive been watching a ton of beta streams and videos, mainly kripp

I run 2h wep whirlwind build. Pretty much walk mp6, can do 7 and 8 fairly easily. Can kill 2 ubers at once in a 4 man mp7 if my partners die, if im lucky :P
