      @AzureGreatheart 3 роки тому +569

      I haven’t played this game (although it’s on EA access for PC, so having Game Pass Ultimate means I can play it whenever) but I have seen what happens when you evolve your species: the game cuts to black and there’s an implied massive timeskip as the evolution slowly takes effect. This species never actually changed that much physically, they just got bigger over the cell stage, and then quickly got smarter. The only major physical changes happened during the cell stage, so the rest of the game might as well have been in real time.
      Edit: I’ve played Spore now, and I misremembered what precisely happens when you evolve: it cuts immediately to the creature creator, rather than cutting to black. Pretty much the same thing, but I was _technically_ wrong about the specific details, so that’s why this edit is here now.

      I think customization was limited to phase out silly/weird/offensive creatures and suit the more serious tone the game was going for. I doubt it was an issue of implementation.
      I also don't think balancing a game with a lot of powers is too much to ask. devs just need to prioritize balance more in the early design process instead of rushing forward with ideas that aren't properly tested. otherwise tons of time goes to waste.

      Honestly, you would’ve thought EA would’ve milked Spore for all it was worth like they did with the Sims 4 and FIFA. I’m surprised there aren’t already five Spore spin-offs and two DLC… Oh wait. Well, I’m surprised there aren’t any direct sequels.
      In case you don’t know, the Spore spin-offs are:
      1. Spore Creatures
      2. Spore Origins
      3. Spore Hero
      4. Spore Hero Arena
      5. Darkspore

    I remember I was playing tribal stage a while back, and my chieftain was dying of starvation, so I tried to get him to eat, but since your tribesman don't always listen to you he continuously wouldn't go eat. Eventually his health drained so much that he had to heal himself but couldn't recover health fast enough, so he was just uselessly sitting in the village for the rest of the stage. :/

    This game always gave me this feeling of "what if in the future they remake it fron the start."
    Its one of thos games where the concept is simple but the computer will never simulate it properly.
    Now with machine learning we might get actual evolution in a game but what about in 80 years?
    Maybe we will one day get a complete spore .

    • @Jerryfan271
      @Jerryfan271 3 роки тому +17

      imo, Spore's gameplay works because it is not simulating actual evolution. The problem with basing a game off of evolution is that natural selection is something that happens by itself, meaning that as a player there's nothing to do except sit back and watch. In Spore, evolution is simply thematic, while most of the game progression comes from the player's actions and the player's part in designing / upgrading their creature. Spore's execution of concept is actually really, really good, about as good as you could hope for even if you were to remake it with current technology.
      I'm not saying there isn't a way to make a game that uses natural selection as a primary game mechanic, but I don't really think it would be anything like Spore. It would not be a remake of Spore, but something completely new and different.

      Cell stage and creature stages are okay.
      Tribal stage is awful, it's kinda enjoyable but really bland.
      Civilization stage is a very good stage, I just wish it had more to it so I hope they rework on that.
      Space stage is my favorite stage, I enjoyed for the fact that my species were growing and growing, it felt like an actual journey. The journey of my species from a tiny little cell to a dominant interstellar space-faring species.
      Want to know the history of my species? Look at the comment below.

      There is a game that tries to simulate true evolution but the gameplay is literally just watching critters evolve. It’s called Species: Artificial Life, Real Evolution.
      You can do things like irradiate or resurrect individuals but I don’t know if there’s anything new to do aside from sit back and watch the mess unfold. The last time I played it was at least 3 years ago lol

    I find it interesting that since you haven't altered the creature in any way, the image is the same top down view as the starter cell image. When you're in cell phase, the cell editor acts as if the cell is 2D with parts being aligned to face up. But when you leave cell phase, the eyes for example become misaligned, pointing up in opposite directions. So the fact the image didn't change is impressive.
    Whenever I play Spore in the galactic phase, I sometimes go to the timeline and scroll all the way back to cell phase, and I feel a bit sad seeing how much my creature has changed since then.

      I wish the game did evolution a little more realistically. You can switch parts out like lego blocks as long as you have the DNA points for it. It'd be nice to only allow gradual changes, or allow new developments based on certain actions, like if you use a poison spit a lot, it will start to develop on its own. Jaws can change, but change shape gradually. And so on.

      @@peperoni_pepino There used to be an Aquatic stage apparently, but it was too resource intensive, and there were problems with glitches and bugs. But it would certainly have been and interesting thing, and would have added more variation to the game, not to mention more (hopefully) enjoyable gameplay. I always liked the cell-creature stages. The creature stage is potentially the longest. After that, you have the tribal and civ stages, which feel kind of rushed and not very detailed. And the space stage really doesn't have a real goal. Sure, reaching the galactic core is a common goal, but even after you've done that, the game goes on as if nothing changed. It's really just about collecting awards and treasures. So if we could have gotten more stages and things to do, then Spore would have gotten much better. It's still a great game, but it could have been more
