I think you guys should make Pimworld for the Xbox one and the Ps4 I would love to play the game for myself but my computer cannot run it and if it was on the Xbox I would buy a copie of the game immediately.

Put simply: no

The game requires far too much micromanaging, and too many hotkeys for a controller.  It would range from annoying to utterly unplayable.

Pimworld is basically England, we just drink pimms and eat cucumber sandwiches all day.

I'd never met an iterator I liked....until Zhentar saved me.
Why Unity5, WHY do you forsake me?

What? A controller? PEASANT. I am not even kidding controllers suck. End. Have you ever played a strategy/building game like this on a controller? No. Cause controllers are for 12 year old aggressive stupid kids shooting in cod all day and paying 20 bucks a month for your shitbox. How long did it even take for you to write this on your xbox? 1 hour? Hahahaha

First of all don't use foul language to answer somebody else's opinion. Second there are enough good reasons to have a console, and though I agree that games like Rimworld would be horrible with a controller there are enough games that are fun with it. So please watch your language.

RimWorld is built on Unity, and Chrome has a Unity plug-in now.  Unity also works on Android (and maybe others too).  Any chance RimWorld will be "ported" to Chrome/Android/other?

Honestly, if these new consoles have USB ports like the last gen (I seriously have no idea if they do), and enough people are actually clamoring to play it on them, and their OSes aren't a horrific pain to port to... why not? I had a decent enough time playing Dust 514 on a PS3 once I had a keyboard and mouse plugged into it. Just ship the game with a warning: "if you try to play this with a stock gamepad, you're gonna have a bad time."

...just like any other strategy game, really. Anyone else remember Starcraft 64?

Agreed... very painful to play with a gamepad, but brilliantly easy once you have a keyboard/mouse.
