Well, after completely losing track of time, I realize that games like this would do well to have some sort of clock in game, so that we don't completely lose our lives inside of it. That said I can't say enough good things about this game!

If I'm not mistaken: ramming Shift-Tab (Steam-window) displays the real time. But that means exiting active gameplay for a few seconds... So forget it.

Yeah it would be nice to have on the upper right corner or something. I'll probably still say "just one more turn" every time I look at the clock though.

Would also appreciate seeing machine time in the interface somewhere.



Might seem weird but I also miss the ability to set alarms. smiley: smile

Basically everything you are suggesting is already here: /#/endless-space/forum/28-game-design/thread/11957-an-ingame-clock

In the suggestion thread it is linked as "Player Alarm - Notification how long being playing for and requested to take a break" though.



I personally agree with the idea, just wanted to let you know it's already in the list.

I actually prefer the immersiveness, and I hope that if it ever gets implemented, it can be toggled off.

I don't like clocks on my walls, even less in my games.

I totally agree with the OP, I also too easily loose track of time, and love when games have an in-game clock, which show the real life time.

I've already experienced this in Endless Space. To prevent "forgetting" time I'd love to have a clock ingame to remind me what time it is.




And for now, you'll have to rely to the Steam overlay clock.
