    we play terraria with our 6 year old, it's awesome :) exploration and platform games are the best when you play with kids co-op :D new Gauntlet as well is awesome for both of my sons (the other is 4) to play something with daddy xD

    I;m looking forward to starbound adding in the villager quests and stuff. we took that chance on supporting them near the beginning when they had sectors and almost nothing but bumming about and I love it. we decided to go for it given how much playtime and value we'd gotten from terraria (like hundreds of hours for under a £1 per copy and we buy copies for everyone everytime there's a sale, lol).

    wish I could say the same for gnomoria which was promising and hoped it would be the graphic answer to dwarf fortress but hasn't seen an update in ages.

    I absolutely never support early access for AAA titles, companies with known tendency towards DLC or content locking or DRM practises beyond steam. And never if it's more than £10 because I assume I might at the very least enjoy it for a week on that price and that's ok, I spend more at the movies or the pub. thankfully steam has the refund for any reason thing now as long as you've played less than a few hours and it's shit which I think helps with returning unplayable crap. I can always repurchase at a later date if the situation changes. until then I don't need to waste my time or have rubbish cluttering up my games lists.

      The lack of Gnomoria updates makes Cheski a sad panda. I too wished for it to be the graphical answer to DF.

      graphical nethack was best thing ever, ascii made my head spin.

      my gnomes were pretty stupid though they'd build themselves into corners and starve to death lol

      I had those sorts of issues in Spacebase DF-9. Which was another Early Access mess up.

      Its funny the first time but then its just annoying.

      Spacebase df9 sounds awfully close to copyright/trademark infringements lol! I tend not to even look at early access titles now unless I get like a review code

      I was fooled here because I didn't think DoubleFine would not properly finish a game. Real bummer.

      Yeah they are usually pretty good at delivering
