Trove

[ProtoChaud]

Anyone else playing Trove? It just came out, and I'm having fun with it, though it's a bit simple. Also voxel graphics, which I despise, but what can I say, I'm tired so my standards are low.

Also, my referral link's here.

Yep. Ugly as shit, building-focused, and the combat's really easy. Still, I'm enjoying it, though I'll probably stop caring within a week or so.

Yeah, if only the developers had sTrove© to make something worthwhile.

haha

i never really liked minecraft to begin with so my interest was killed the second i saw that blocky looking horse

it's like trying to be retro but that style just doesn't work at all in 3d and it just comes off looking lazy and muddled

This late in the game it just comes off of copying minecraft / trying to capitalize on its successes. Not that doing that with popular games isn't anything new, but with games that draw from minecraft, you can literally tell by looking at a screenshot for less than a second. The game itself could be great, but I'll always see all those blocky games as unoriginal at this point.

So yeah, I played a bit more today. It gets boring fast. Ugh.

do people actually think this art style looks good? i mean it looks like it took some effort to make the model but adding detail onto these super simple block shapes with more geometry is just bad
