We know we're going to have pets later on, so my question is: will you use motion capture on animals (dogs/cats) to have basic motion for pet and alien creature?asked by Kaochat
TL;DRChris Roberts says they'll probably do some animal motion capture and will definitely have pets, and maybe tameable alien wildlife, but only later, after basics like trading, mining and escorting are in place.
I think we probably would do some animal motion capture. It's always fun. It seemed to be the best thing in whatever, was it Call of Duty Ghost? I can't remember which one it was. They had the ... they had the ... the dog. And they had the swimming fish. But yeah, no, we'll probably do some of that. We'll have fun. It's a great science fiction trope that everyone's got the cat on the spaceship or their dog, their best friend.And so we'll definitely have them, collect them. We'll have some alien ones too. We're going to have alien wildlife longer term. So maybe some of those could become a pet and ... Just a lot of fun we will have with it. Down the road obviously after we've got some of the more fundamental basic things like trading and mining and escorting and all the rest of stuff going. But there you go.
