Is this one going to have an anti-dong algorithm?
(Link is SFW, no images, only text).

They wanted a creative building MMO with a promise of zero penises seen.

Thanks, Andrew Vestal ‏@avestal https://twitter.com/avestal/status/605105534950207488 for linking to it.

Basically the guy is saying that dong-detection was so expensive it killed lego universe, so he supposes that it would be too costly for lego to ever make a game where you can build anything you wanted... yet here we are.

 

[HUELEN10]

Is this Lego Digital Designer on steroids!?!?

 

[Steel]

I'm honestly surprised it took this long for lego to copy minecraft. I mean, it should've been a no brainer before minecraft even released.

 

[shandy706]

Curious as to how complicated it is to play.

 

[RP912]

Probably the only lego game I will buy...holy shit this looks awesome.

 

[ZeroXZee]

Your move, Minecraft.

Spoiler

half-kidding =P

 

[Nirolak]

Is this the first major publisher using Early Access?

 

[The Elite]

I am really curious about this.

Could never get into Minecraft.

 

[Compsiox]

 

[Bigby]

Is this the first major publisher using Early Access?

There's also SEGA and Eastside Hockey Manager.

 

[MUnited83]

Is this the first major publisher using Early Access?

Square Enix used it for Nosgoth I believe.

 

[Fragamemnon]

Is this the first major publisher using Early Access?

Definitely one of the first.

I like the approach. Yes, the publisher could bankroll it entirely without resorting to early access. The feedback from users and big external testing stages is what the Early Access is there for. It results in better games.

 

[MaxiLive]

Is this the first major publisher using Early Access?

Codemasters have used it for Dirt Rally.

 

[Li Kao]

Very interesting input in the link, thanks.

 

[DylanTackoor]

Man, I just got around to actually buying Minecraft.

 

[Kid Ska]

This is the LEGO game I've been waiting for.

 

[Tagg9]

Graphically it looks really impressive compared to similar games like Minecraft. I'm interested to see what the gameplay is like.

They've smartly priced this as a budget title (very similar to Minecraft Beta).

 

[Hendrick's]

I'm honestly surprised it took this long for lego to copy minecraft. I mean, it should've been a no brainer before minecraft even released.

I always assumed they didn't want to detract from the sales of their overpriced physical Lego sets by offering it digitally.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Gameplay vids?

 

[Seanspeed]

Just watched the trailer on the Steam store page.

Shit looks like the real deal. Building looks more 'editor-like', though, rather than an immersive, hammer-and-nail approach.

 

[Gipsy Danger]

Pretty excited here, pal!

 

[Tobor]

Wow. This could be special.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Fuck Fuck Fuck

I've always wanted a literal Lego sandbox game that was available on Steam, new and updated. It's finally happened.

 

[Compsiox]

Pretty excited here, pal!

But they're sooooo late.

Holy shit this is hilarious.

 

[Gipsy Danger]

But they're sooooo late.

Good games are good games. If the game is good then I'm excited. Waiting for some opinions though before I bite.

 

[Rootbeer]

YES!

Is this my dream game? Sure hope so

[C.Dark.DN]

Someone stream it

 

[nobodyshero]

About time!

 

[delSai]

Normally i dont buy PC games but for this one i might make an exception..

 

[Seanspeed]

That's on the OP

Ah, didn't realize it was a clickable link.

Holy crap, that's amazing. Must have cost a ton, too.

 

[Rosur]

Seems kinda interesting if its Minecraft with Vehicles and Lego sets.

 

[TheChits]

Just bought it and downloading now. That video and those screens...I couldn't resist

We need impressions ASAP.

 

[Anteater]

dang this looks cool, in for the online multiplayer

 

[Hip Hop]

We need impressions ASAP.

We need streams!

 

[uncleniccius]

This looks more interesting to me that Minecraft even though I enjoyed it.

Hopefully it'll come to console upon release.. I love Lego's humor so I'd buy it.

 

[TedHub]

I'm in as long as I can deliver pizza...

 

[muteki]

As someone who has never really been into the minecraft thing outside of dicking around/blowing stuff up, I am 1000x more interested in this.

A proper City biome would be awesome.

 

[Xane]

Never played Minecraft, but really interested in this.

Love LEGO.

 

[Li Kao]

Hmm, not sure the brick by brick building is implemented yet.
And figure customization is in the to do list.

Only thing keeping me from buying second-1.

 

[Cindres]

Woah well I may get this when I'm home from work depending on impressions

 

[CrispyGoomba]

I'm interested but I'd like to see impressions before going in blind.

 

[TheChits]

We need impressions ASAP.

I have school and job stuff to attend, so I won't be able to play until this evening ;_;

 

[Hendrick's]

So how do you build / tear down bricks? Or doesn't it work like that?

edit: Never mind, just watched video.
