  1. Onyx Watch are an early game faction and lore wise are basically Dwarves with Battleships, building what are literal floating castles with guns that would make an Imperial battleship blush.

    However, because they are dwarves, they are bound securely to tradition, and as such rarely bother with such silly things as "guided missiles" and "aircraft", and so are extremely weak to aircraft beyond a few special ships, as Frog figured out in his game. After all, you could use a fancy laser, or you could just drop a shell the size of a minivan on the other guy.

    From the Depths is wild and complex, and he hasn't even seen half of it. You can build just about anything if you are good, and each faction is extremely well rounded and themed. You have space elves meets war of the worlds, pirates with airships and particle guns, actually friendly AI who believe in castle doctrine with giant mecha, cyberpunk on the water, and people who worship a "flayed god" and are very eager to introduce you to titan scaled chainsaws, and bunch of other random people.

  2. When you load the game, you get to see recent additions to the workshop by other players. They range from photo realistic replicas of real ships, some epic and beautifly made fantasy/sci-fi vehicle, or something just plane goofy like a flying milk carton or a giant ship girl from one of those animes.

    I think I remember someone asking one of these people in jest 'So what kind of degree do you have?', they seriously replied 'Engineering'. That's the kind of game this is.

  3. Fair warning if you buy this game: the tutorials the game comes with is awful and the keyboard-only building controls (which I prefer over the more traditional mouse option the game gives you) are a little weird. Be prepared to watch videos and spend a lot of time learning stuff.

  4. From the Depths is an incredible game with an incredibly steep learning curve. I have been playing the game for close to six years now, and I still don't understand everything. But I still love it immensely

    It's a wargame where you can build practically anything, as long as you have the skill and imagination. Like, you can actively do programming in the game environment to fine tune your craft's behaviors

    You can build ships, tanks, massive fortresses both on land and sea, hell even in the sky and space; you can build planes, space ships, orbital laser/artillery stations, mechs, and so much more. The possibilities are pretty endless

  6. As someone with 200 hours in from the depths. I still have no idea what like 2/3rds of the blocks do and my designs eitjer work perfectly or I am baffled because it worked perfectly 10 seconds ago but now its flipped upside down.

  7. Just letting you know From the Depths is a fun game with a whole crap ton of options, if you have enough patience and IQ to do it. I suffer from motivation and Interest issues. I love games where I can do a lot of cool things Like Minecraft and From the Depths. However, I cant enjoy either game because of my own brain and glaring lack of intelligence. I'd say i'm more Hands On Smart than Programming and Creative smart. So games like Minecraft end up going wrong because I cant get the Motivation to continue a build or my Mood changes. and From the depths is my natural enemy because it makes me feel stupid. like… really stupid. my Brain struggles to accept BOTH methods of building. and I struggle to even enjoy any time I spend in game. I love watching FtD content. but always feel bad playing the game. so yeah, theres a simple warning. If you've got the IQ and time to spare to learn it, it can be fun. But be aware. The comment by Shaun_Jones is true. 1000 Hours is nothing in FtD. and if you go to the steam workshop you'll see Wizards at work.

  8. I have this one ancient ship on the workshop somewhere called the Emperor's Wraith, it was made many patches ago but the old battleship can still slaughter most ships that are around its size or cheaper.

  9. Given how good the lasers seemed to be I’m kind of wondering why mart didn’t just cram a crapload of those on his ships instead of using the extremely expensive missiles. Not to mention it honestly would have been way more hilarious if the flying deathpeens were firing just an ungodly amount of yellow lasers from the tip lol.
