      I checked out Exodus. The lore behind the game looks fascinating however my concern is how the devs are going to handle time dilation and your choices.

      If my character takes off for a decade, I expect some sort of noticeable change. Buildings a little grimier or nice and clean. Creating new models and maps to reflect the time dilation and the choices you make is going to add a lot of extra dev time.

      That’s the issue, isn’t it?

      I see this on the internet a lot. People posit things like “wouldn’t it be awesome if these fired devs got together” or “Why don’t they make good stuff anymore? Wouldn’t it be great if somone made a thing like this old beloved thing…”

      …Except it’s already happening. Or happened.

      And there’s just so much noise on the internet, it’s largely unknown to the folks who’d be interested.

      To be clear, I’m not blaming OP, and I’ve done the exact same thing myself. But I still find it kind of… sad.


      Anyway, thanks, I am bookmarking Exodus and Archetype Entertainment now.
