It's a beautiful game, I'll give it that.
I already made it to a certain area that's basically your "half way mark."
I've spent a lot of time hitting monoliths to uncover language.
I'll explore every planet and moon in each system for about a half hour.
I bought a new ship for a quarter mill and it looks like an x wing.
I'm running into a lot of aggressive animals lately. My only bitch so far is that the damn sentinels are a bit overly sensitive.
I found a huge stockpile of a rare metal and just had to mine it. Those little ****ers were on my ass in no time.

You know what this game is?
It's Minecraft in space without the multiplayer or construction.

My kid is going to love this when he gets just a little older. It's a bit too technical for him right now.

I've hit two large Atlas anomalies and one black hole so far. If I find a planet with chill sentinels, decent weather and chill animals I'll stay until I'm full of materials. If it's the opposite I immediate nope out.

My only wish list item right now is a way to track needed resources. I have a piece of scrap paper next to me with 8 elements that I need. If I could tag them in the game I could then scan for them on planets and see a star next to them in a trading menu.

I KNEW IT!!

Game is getting panned except by fanboys.

It's a good game. Very relaxing and I truly enjoy seeing different wildlife and planets.
However, this should not be on anyones top 5 lists for goty.

Maybe a top 10 depending on what else is released this year. The new Deus Ex, South Park and Horizon will definitely be up there. Dark Souls III as well.

We'll see how many improvements they make in the next few weeks. My biggest bitch?

The goddamned inventory system. What a pain in the ass. I have to save up money to buy a ship that can do 20 slots instead of 18. The only way to make cash fast is to mine. You can't mine too many rare metals without the goddamned inventory filling up quickly. Not to mention the ****ing sentinels will come after your ass.

I found a huge ****ing meteor in space made of gold. I blasted the **** outta it. Damn pirates came after me.

Out of any game, this one screams for unlimited inventory slots. It's just too much of a chore micro-managing inventory slots. I am still enjoying the game, however. Although it did crash on my last night, which was annoying.

Yeah, I found a couple of those. Still though, what a pain in the ass.
I know it's about the journey, not the destination. I'm enjoying the game for sure. I look forward to the improvements I'm sure they'll make.

Yep, twice for me so far. Always seems to happen right after coming out of warp for me.

Sounds "very relaxing."

Seriously, I'm sick of just about every game with the inventory management metagame bullshit. Yeah, it's not realistic to carry a half ton of junk in my pockets. But it sure as shit isn't any fun to spend half my time playing a game sorting through inventory trying to make decisions about what I should keep or throw away or sell, especially when I have no idea what value different objects have because they don't introduce that shit until later.

Rant off/

I feel like I've seen you say you're [an almost OCD] completionist when it comes to games. What's your plan on tackling this? Are you going to just completely explore everything possible on each planet you visit until you're done playing the game?

The only reason I ask is that I'm very similar in my approach to games and am strongly considering getting this.

By the way, the completionist approach rules because it usually means I get incredible bang for the buck in terms of hours of enternaiment per dollar spent. :)

You haven't got your money's worth in any game until Buck TK's you at least 10 times in said game.

Be weary of black holes. Right now there is a bit of an issue with them going through the community. For example, I went through a black hole and now I am 70,000 light years away from the waypoints that I cannot deselect, with no way of getting to them, and no way of advancing in the atlas path or any other aspect of the game because of it. Well, unless I manually flew 70,000 light years back to my waypoints of course.

It is currently one of the top subreddits on all of Reddit:

MW2, thems were some good times.

Feeling all the feels now...

I have been tooling around my first planet and getting a lot of stuff done. I found some deposits of Emeril (bam!!!!) so sold that at the space station for some good coin. I just get in my shape and fly around until my scanner detects a question mark then I go in and land. I upgraded my suit inventory around 4 times and got an upgraded multitool with 8 inventory slots and have learned about 10 words.
