Really needs mod support devs

[VelxraTV]

I love the game. It has a great story in a unique world. But please add support for modders and the steam workshop. You are already moving on to underrail 2. So give this game some long lasting life by allowing the community to mod. There is so much more a healthy modding community can do for a game than anything else. Just look at rimworld, any bethesda game, arma, or space engineers. Mods make good games popular and last decades. I know you have mentioned you dont want mods to ruin the game vision or what not. But really this stance is what is actually holding the game back from becoming truly popular instead of just niche. I enjoy underrail and want to see it do better both in terms of the game improving and sales. You are done with this project and it has run its course. Please give us mod support so more people can expand your work and open new doors for others to discover this game to. If for anything, to generate more people interested in buying your next game. Mods are what make games legendary.

For me, the writting and story got me interested in underrail, it is great. Then I became invested in the factions. Now it feels like they all are just abit shallow. While leaving me wanting more from the mere tease of the grey army. Im sure there could be those who want to see more added to the story of the rathound king to. Or how about the protectorate patrolling areas like the occupying force they are. A modding community could just add so much value to the game's lore and background by expanding these factions or characters. That would otherwise remain as they are now. Interesting and limited to short quest lines.

underrail workshop:
"make vendors buy everything"
"infinite vendor cash"
"speedhack plus plus extreme edition"
"legacy psi"
"yes respec - yes respect"
"DC rebalance"
"hardcore dominating"
"easy - game journo edition"
"pipeworker uncensored"
"QBBE"

sure why not

Mod support would be lovely, wouldn't mind making the in game map less awful or changing default inventory page ._.

Styg's pretty precious about his game so that's never happening. Nobody can be allowed to touch his baby.
Protectorate do patrol upper Underrail/waterways so at least that's in!

You can safely add unlimited fast travel mod to that list.

He wasn't against user created content, like new campaigns and stuff, last time i asked him about it on discord. I don't think we will get it in Underrail, but maybe in the next game we will.

with the project done except for bug fixes, there really is no chance of mod tools. it'd be a lot of work to make them. the community already knows enough so that they could really add content if they wanted, pretty much everything is in a known standard, but the framework the game uses is complex (Microsoft XNA) so its been much easier to simply hex edit things.

Not a single mod to drive freely Protectorate Dreadnought through whole game? Too bad... but I'm still waiting.

I'm not against a mod that, after spending a cumulative total of ~2h in a town, unlock a button on the top side that, when pressed, spawns an ugly Excel-type containing the list of town's vendors, and clicking one name : instantly summon a vendor's inventory whenever your are (inside the town's limits).





But, YES, it's a whole can of worms inside mods :)

This game is a gem and mods would probably ruin it. That said I would not mind a better map.

Oh no! How dare someone play the game In a way I don't like! Oh the horror!
I swear, people like you are part of the reason I'm honestly considering putting this game down. The fact that everyone in the community seems to think any way to play that does not consist of min-maxxing or ♥♥♥♥-and-ball-torture is somehow "ruining the game" is ridiculous.

It sucks too because I really want to enjoy this game, but it's kind of hard to do so when the places I want to go just end up killing me within 5 minutes.

Sounds like a skill issue to me. Have you tried becoming proficient?

Why do you even browse the game's forums if you dislike it? If it's too hard for you just stop playing it, noone cares.

Anyone can play the game any way they want.
That doesn't mean, however, that the game needs to be adjusted to better suit someone's gameplay preference if it's not in line with the core gameplay loop.

Have you, perhaps, considered acquiring further expertise?
