Starbound [Winter Update!]

Wat.

Anyways, I've been playing the game a lot, and I'm still very hopeful for the game, although it still needs a lot of balancing and it still really feels somewhat lacking/boring as you work through each tier. I get so tired of seeing the same structures over and over, especially when I know that they won't hold anything valuable to loot (like Avian Tombs or Apex Facilities) and I get tired of getting the same weapons with somewhat different names, but exact same appearance, ESPECIALLY when those items are the "legendary" weapons from mini-bosses (I've obtained 4 bone hammers, 3 red swords with an eye on it, and 5 swords with a water/wave theme on it).

As I've been playing, I have found a couple of problems. For example, if you are on a party member's ship and try to navigate/fly it somewhere, it'll use up the fuel, but it won't actually travel to the destination and instead, YOUR ship (which you wouldn't be on) travels to that destination. And I just encountered a rather very frustrating problem with the captured monsters--once caught, they're friendly to you, so I assumed they'd be friendly to my NPC crew on my ship too (my chef, tool seller, doctor), but NOPE. As soon as I let it out of its capture device, it bolted towards them and killed them all. I was fucking pissed. Oh, and the Tier 3 boss is absolute BS. Without really spoiling anything, I just gotta say his fire damage is way too harsh and also his hitboxes are AWFUL; basically the only place you can hit him is around his stomach/chest, but he's so big and large, to get close enough for your melee weapon to hit YOU have to take touch damage. Bleh.
