The controller support isn't the only required piece to move to consoles, although we do consider it to be a mandatory feature for both 1.0 PC launch and our eventual console port.

We really just need to get to launch as soon as we can and attempting to do a simultaneous console release would delay our PC launch.

Yes but this would still include massive amounts of work on our end to implement. We need to focus on our 1.0 launch and adding console development into the pipeline would delay the launch of the game. This is not an acceptable tradeoff for us at this time.

if the game has been delayed this much already might as well delay it a bit more so console and pc have the same release date..

Games dont usually do well if it comes out on pc first and then console later

The hype is all gone and people just wont care

But if you come out with it at the same time you guys would make bank cause of the hype

As a team, we have come to different conclusions and will not be doing this.

So according to your guys analytics you wouldnt make more money and the game wouldnt be an even bigger success if you would release it on both pc and console (PS5/Series X) at the same time?

Cause like i said before and this is using analytics from past games that have separate releases, if a pc release gets it first and then console gets a release a year later, that console release a year later has 0 hype and most people dont care anymore cause the game is "old"

Same thing happened with Monster Hunter Rise, PC release had it first and then it came to on consoles a year later and no one cared about it at all cause it was considered "old"

But when Monster Hunter World came out on all platforms at the same time it had insane hype and success cause it was out on all platforms at the same time...

I'm saying we can't afford the delay of the PC release to the scale that a simultaneous console release would cause.

Hi there are we any closer to getting a console port yet?

No, nothing has changed with regards to console ports. It is still what I would call a "someday feature". We are currently focusing on fixing any remaining major bugs with the 0.9.0 launch and the upcoming 0.9.1 patch.

It is currently very playable with a controller. It doesn't have "full controller support" because you do need to use a keyboard and mouse for very select things. For example, you need a keyboard to type anything in a text box like character name or chat or searching a tree. "full controller support" is something we consider a required feature for consoles and something we plan to have by 1.0. It is however not the only requirement for consoles and isn't the thing which is holding back console support being tackled.

How well does the game play with using big picture mode in steam and it's text input methods?

No idea, haven't tried it or heard of anyone trying it. The game doesn't have built in alternate text input. I'm just not if big picture will stimulate a keyboard automatically or not.

Has Dbrunski's video upped the interest and motivation here?? I hadn't heard of this game and it looks so cool! I don't have the time to figure out a gaming PC so I only play console, hopeful I can play yalls cool ass creation some day

While it certainly didn't hurt, we have a planned timeline to 1.0 launch and it doesn't include a console release. We will still be looking to consoles as a post 1.0 option.

We have not started console development yet. It'll be a while still.

The word "yet" has never looked so good.

Please say you'll be sharing your awesome game eventually with us poor folk, who could only afford a PS5 OR a PC and not both...

I chose poorly :-( Nobody's problem but my own of course. But still sucks. Haha.

That's still the plan. It'll be something we start looking at post 1.0 launch.

Nope, it will still be a post-1.0 goal. Our controller support has and will continue to improve. We will start to look at consoles as an option once we are on the other side of launch. No work has been done on a console version yet.
