Still having some fun with this game. However there are some recent controversies involving the main guy behind the game, and promises he has made. It appears that you will never be able to meet another person in game, when he has stated this was possible.

It's the only game I have been playing this week. I seem to chunk off about 2 hours each play session, which hasn't occurred in my adult life for the past 3 years. I am certainly not blind to the criticism this game has been getting. But I can see myself at a minimum completing the quest to get to the center of the Galaxy. No doubt this will be the most polarizing game released this year.
I've played games like Doom(lasted 2 hours and haven't played since), COD (lasted 2 hours, haven't played since) The Division(didn't even make it an hour), so I think for a game to captivate me this long bodes well for how long I will spend on it. |

I finally ran into a galaxy that had been discovered by someone. It's roughly my 30th warp. He didn't name anything creatively but it was kinda cool.
I'm learning more and more and it's definitely making the game better. Once you really get involved and start really upgrading your items you get into it. I don't like grinding so much for materials but you get use to it. I landed on a planet last night that had more gold than I knew what to do with. Hundreds of huge boulders. Of course it wasn't worth as much at the local trader so I warped out with it and sold it all for about 20% more. Got a badass new bright yellow ship with great mobility and speed. Bought it for just over 900k. It looks kinda like an A-10 with folding wings. |

Let's put it this way: the planets are unbelievably huge. I have no idea what percentage of surface area I've covered but I'd guess it's tiny. I only stay long enough to identify a certain number of species to net a large credit reward. Which hasn't been easy so far (trying to analyze flying creatures is particularly difficult). I'm kind of glad each planet has a uniform biome because I don't feel obligated to stay after I've finished scanning. There seems to be some point of interest within five minutes walk from anywhere on any planet's surface, at least in my first system, so I could probably meander around forever on one planet. Inventory wise it hasn't been too bad. One benefit of my playstyle is that I've come across numerous exosuit upgrades (have 20 slots IIRC), gotten two free multitools (current one has 8 slots) and found three crashed ships, although none yet better than the preorder. Well, one had 17 slots but it looked like a pink and white dildo. So no... Saw a 28 slot ship on one of the landing pads but I didn't have three and a half million credits. But I'm sure I'll find another derelict that I like eventually. My last planet was amazing. Beautiful scenery, abundant resources. The one I'm currently on looks like Texas. No bueno. No awe inspiring moments really, outside of scenery oohs and ahhs (lots of those so far) but I didn't really expect there to be in my first system. So far zero regrets on the preorder. |
