It’s apparently just as hard to nail down a “commonly accepted” definition for some of these terms as it was to get a straightforward answer from James, I guess.
At this point this is what we’re mostly all waiting for.
With regards to people feeling the need to say stuff like “I’m not embarrassed” or “I don’t feel guilty” and the fact that we’ve been left hanging on very basic QoL issues for years now - I doubt if there’s going to be any trouble about using an autoclick setup (software or hardware) during your game play.
James used the word “disability” :
The truth is trying to play without some assistance would give us all disabilities. And I’ve only seen one person straight up use the word “cheating” today.
Nonetheless I feel like everyone is on the same page about that.
These guys did crazy amazing technical stuff to get this game going. They built the engine twice (at least) and in the face of people asking since before the game was even officially released - never added a “craft all” or “move all” feature?
As for the more complex stuff:
Me too. One thing I’ve gathered with this thread is that if it’s OK with the devs, it’s going to be OK with most of the players, and we’ll get things balanced out.
I don’t want to argue any more about whether or not a weight on a keyboard is a “known and acceptable game mechanic”. I also sort of assume that most people commenting by now will have not read most of the thread.
Absolutely please still take a moment to share your thoughts, even if it’s already been said.
I’m not looking for affirmation here, I’m trying to gauge a majority opinion, and hopefully - if Monty’s feelings on this are not crystal clear - then community input can help steer some new guidelines.
Best case of course, who knows if he will even take time to skim over this monstrosity
