A new better game than KSP comes out this Summer

[DauntingFlyer]

This new masterpiece will surpass any other game.

The clear victor of "taking the joke too far".

This is becoming annoying now, all these ridiculous "simulators".

[7499275]

I saw this yesterday on Twitter. Astonished at how many stupid games they are releasing. Making a computer game at this point is too easy and everyone thinks they can become famous even by realising "Rock Simulator"

My rant is over, or just starting, not sure yet.

[lajoswinkler]

I wouldn't be upset if this didn't take the places on Greenlight for other developers of actual games and simulators that do something.

I get it, it's funny, ha-ha, but after half a minute of chuckle, it fades away.

[pxi]

And yet, after all these years, there is still no reboot of Advanced Lawnmower Simulator.

[Superfluous J]

Meh. I'm not dropping $60 until I see some in-game footage. This prerendered stuff was fine in the 90s but it's twenty-oh-fourteen.

[Skyler4856]

I hear they are only gonna release half of the game, and release the other half in DLC...

[deadshot462]

Disappointed they dropped their plans for "Watching Paint Dry Simulator 2014" for this.

[Jacob01]

And I thought Goat Simulator was a strange idea for a game... Not that it was a bad game, I think its quite funny! But I think its gone too far this time, I mean, who wants to spend money on something so boring and useless.

Gaming is doomed. Because:

Micro transactions

Free-to-play

EA

Really famous bad games

Unoriginal games

[ZedNova]

I might get this if there's some DLC that adds colored rocks.

[cantab]

But how will the online multiplayer have timewarp?

[vger]

Back in my day, we called this a screensaver.

EDIT:

And due to thinking I was in a different thread, I actually replied to your otherwise very funny joke. Oops.

Stop complaining. With the modern tools at everyone's disposal we get more great games than ever. And bad ones too, yes, but those are ignored easily enough.

[Aghanim]

On a more serious note, the fact that a simple rock scene is that it could be used for some interesting tech demo, because its simple

For example:

1. Real time raytracing

2. Physics simulation for the rock, allowing it to be smashed and broken physically correct

3. Environmental simulation for the rock, like gravity and temperature

Unfortunately, that will require a new game engine, as Rock Simulator uses Unity, and you know...

At least the developers intended(???????) this as a joke, not like Activision that devour Blizzard and destroy it

[Tremzack]

Man, Gaming has finally hit rock bottom

I am sorry for that stone-cold pun. Puns are some tough schist, and you gotta be ready to be stuck between a rock and a hardplace.

To be fair though, they did say that the music in this game was pretty good. Wow these puns are getting boulder by the second.

But honestly this game could do with some rockets.

[The Jedi Master]

In the beginning, there was Farming Simulator. (I'm convinced that was a tech demo for a surprisingly large open world)

Then, there was Goat Simulator. (Kinda funny, I guess...)

And now this.

First signs of Armageddon?

[Lundmunchkins]

This is the perfect video game for Maud Pie.

[The Destroyer]

And this is why greenlight is broken. All these stupid, pointless games being voted up for LOL SO FUNNYZ which means another great game takes another few months to get greenlit.

I mean, Farming simulator, isn't actually too bad. Goat simulator was hilariously broken it was awesome

but this is worse than toilet simulator.

[Red Iron Crown]

Meh, I'm holding out for Grass Growing Simulator and Sleeping Simulator. The rocks are a bit too stimulating for my taste.

[Chrisd857]

But KSP already has all these features!

1) Snag asteroid

2) Land it on Kerbin

3) Enjoy

4) ???

5) Profit

You also get different environments for free! Rocks simulated on Duna, Laythe, Eelloo, etc. It's Rock Simulator and more.

KSP will be our little island of good gaming.

Yes but Rock simulator focus on the rocks and it's in HD, far superior.

You can experience first hand their misterious and often frantic behavior.

It's a must have for every gamer.

[Vonar]

Wow... They've really lowered the bar on entertainment and replay value now haven't they?
