Expanding The Article

I think it would be beneficial to the article if it was added to in more detail. Though specific details around the development of the game are limited due to how new it is, I would like to create a section covering specific gameplay features such as progression, biomes, UI, and other similar topics.

Introduction

Recommend saying "up and coming" vs upcoming- the latter gives the impression it is not released yet. 15:35, 7 March 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meechjes (talk • contribs)

Layout of sections

@Soetermans Hello, I can't find where in WP:VG/MOS it says where the "soundtrack" section should be in relation to order of sections. The only thing I find is guidance on whether or not it deserves its own section on articles at all. What am I missing? TylerBurden (talk) 19:55, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey TylerBurden, thanks for starting a discussion. Usually I try to follow BRD strictly, but I was convinced it must've been part of the guideline. I did recall this ancient discussion about the same topic. Consensus there at the time at least was that music is part of a game, and it should come before reception. I'd say before development, because that tends to be more on the technical side in video game articles, but I don't mind seeing it part of that section. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 20:20, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Soetermans Okay thanks, I suppose that is the closest thing we have to some kind of consensus on where it should be, I don't feel strongly about it so I don't mind leaving it as it is. TylerBurden (talk) 17:37, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Full release

There have been no reliable sources about the full release dates as of yet. Is there WP:NORUSH for this? The Media Expert (talk) 00:43, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there is no reason to rush it. When the game is released out of early access the upcoming part can be removed, but until then it isn't a fully released game. TylerBurden (talk) 23:00, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@TylerBurden I agree with you. I may request a full protection at WP:RFPP to prevent all users from removing the upcoming part. The Steam store page says it is still in early access. The Media Expert (talk) 14:09, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@The Media Expert It's probably not a common enough occurrence for an administrator to protect the page at the moment, but if it ramps up that certainly could be an option. TylerBurden (talk) 18:17, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
