    This is actually the territory where I live, by the way. But this name is used veeery rarely nowadays.

    When I was creating the setting for some Minecraft server (which had never opened though) naming of the Slavs-based country was a stumbling block for me too. But finally I came up with names " Ostrozem' " (smth like "narrow/sharp land") and "Borolesie" ("pinewoods"). Also there are many words you could attach to that "zem' ", like "Novozem' " (new land), "Starozem' " (old land), "Snegozem' " (snowy land) and so on. Just suggestions.

    This is really great, because most of the game developers/movie directors don't care about such things. There's even a special term in Russian which is used to describe that unscrupulous and extensive use of untrue stereotypes about Russian culture - "klukva" ("cranberry" in English. I don't know why is it called so).

  3. Will scientists be pickling interesting specimens they discover? It would be interesting if a scientist (naturalist?) would slowly fill up their workshop with experiments and specimens as time goes on.

    I think that has delightful connotations for Madness...because nothing is for interesting for a scientist than the pickled bodies of street Urchins that have wronged said scientist...oh yes...

    Will madness result in the possibility of citizens making pickled cogs?

    I think the word you want here is “encoggled”.
     
  8. I couldn't find the right word for that, thanks!

    You're letting filthy, headline-grubbing reporters know things before your loyal fans do?! How dare you! I am hurt! HURT I SAY! I will fight-

    Hmm, guess it makes good PR sense. Carry on!

    And this is how you use a mind probe to calm down a paesan throwing tantrum.

    You do realise that the early access one will probably be a bit eldritch, right?

  17. Yeah I've purchased several early access games before when I'm interested in helping fund the developer and playing the game, as a side note there is always the risk of people who don't understand what early access is and playing them game in its incomplete state without being aware what the early access model is and then they're not satisfied. I've seen forums from other early access games with people acting downright entitled over what they spent their money on not being a complete product. So yeah lets hope that people are wise to what early access is at this point.

    *cracks knuckles* I've brought an astounding number of Alpha, Beta, and Early Access games to their knees, weeping at the glorious carnage I wrought among their codes because nobody once ever imagined somebody would do something so catastrophically stupid as pressing [insert button] and [insert button] at the same time.

    And yes, convoluted, way too many entitled people these days don't know what early access is. I think that we can at least attribute greater intelligence to the fine members of this forum.

    You know as much as I want this game, I think I´ll wait for the final version. I jsut want to start my first colony with all the maigc a first play through has without fearing that some bugs will kill. Well gamplay bugs. I am totaly fine with actual giant bugs killing me in the game.

    Hi, just a small question that might have been answered elsewhere: why Capitol City and not Capital? I'm just curious...
