It's my opinion... And at first, my opinion about this game was negative. As I was influenced by tons of opinions on internet and critics, so I assumed that the game sucks donkey balls and never touched it, looking to the game title from time to time in mere dissapointment. Later I knew that it wasn't quite fair for both devs and fans, as devs didn't had the time to finish the game and they've been hyping the people waiting for it for quite a while with videos and trailers and when the game finally came out, it wasn't at all what was promised to the players, which caused the negative backlash towards the company and got them in deep sнiт with media and public. As a human with functional eyes and fingers, writing reviews in steam, I also posses the power of google.
I followed the events for a bit and seems like the devs are making amends with the fans of the game and working hard on new content to get the game closer to the point of what it was promised to be. So, I bought it with discont, not so long ago from a time I am writing this review (Currently I have 30 hours of gameplay on steam counter or so) and let me say, it's a fine a$$ game. The price is bit too high for this game for my tasting, because I am greedy as f?ск sometimes. Though with discount, it's worth every penny and it has infinite planets with infinite gameplay for a player.
Depends on your gamestyle... I played as a mercenary/pirate most of the time, praying on weak exo-life forms and bringing the fury of the emperor upon those who opposed me. But it's just me... I think everyone could find something for his/her tasting in this game, actually. Infinite planets? Infinite adventures. Just use your creativity and the game mechanics knowledge to develop your own playstyle and "Role" in this game and it's actually quite enjoyable. Even more, if you are high.
And about the game itself, some observations... Small planets have more populated points per square kilometer, use it to your advantage, when exploring. Raid facilities, could be helpfull in later game. Hide from elements and don't forget to recharge your suit and oxigen tank, when in the open, shipless and with your pants down. Mine for emeril, gold, etc... Guard it in your ship, sell it later. Good money boost at start. Aaand, I haven't seen any game-breaking bugs so far, except for a messy quest sistem with couple of quests in other galaxies, that I can't deliver anymore, but I can live with that, I sold the cargo long ago anyway. Ability to cancel quests or refresh them for your current sistem or closeby... Would be nice. Besides that, it's a good game. Solid 9/10 and I do recommend it.
