I was a day one buyer. I gotta say i miss the old game, before it became multiplayer. The loneliness was great. Black holes used to mean something. Now you can just teleport anywhere you want to.
Corvettes are one of the cool things they added, and somehow halfassed it. I don’t mean that in a horrible way, just that the ship partss are all over the place. But that got old pretty quick.
I played it at launch for about 60 hours, haven’t touched it since. I started using reddit to participate in its subreddit in 2016, the hype this game created was crazy.
Played for a while, a few times, but there’s not much challenge so I don’t stick around that long. Got strong enough to kill all the sentinels easily. Got a freighter and billions of credits. Lots of resources.
I can imagine deeper stuff they could do, and maybe they will one day.
I hop in and out whenever a new update comes out, feels like I slip into my usual grinding routine, collect resources then sell resources. Then a new game comes out and I drop off again. I did get it for the Steam Deck and appreciate the cross save feature and they really do deserve credit for the ongoing updates. But it’s a sandbox and same game mechanics as FarmVille sometimes.
This is my problem, too. I’ve gotten so entrained to hoard resources and make gold go up. I explore enough planets to put mines for every resource next to teleporters, then I run around the teleporters collecting resources until the overflow my storage. I’m a little jealous of people who have the creativity and attention to build big, elaborate bases with all of those resources - they look cool, it must feel very rewarding to see them develop, but if it’s not utilitarian, I can’t motivate myself.
Of course, I’ve got probably 200 hours hoarding resources…
Got 1700hrs in it; 42 bases across a 30+ galaxies. Mines for Sodium, Indium, Phosphorus, Rusted Metal, Sulpherine, Pyrite, and a few more. Built a few architectural wonders, too. Good times
I haven’t played in about a month, but the Corvette update really got my interest renewed. Soon as that dropped, my first thought was how Hello Games basically out-Starfielded Starfield. Having completely walkable interiors on near-infinitely editable ships made things a lot more fun, although also a smidge OP. Methinks I should jump back in! Really need to try VR mode again too.
I just picked it up on a steam sale. Excited to try it out again. Played it a little a long time ago but didn’t know what to do. Apparently it’s gotten a lot better and I love space stuff
Yup, been a fan for years, and it just keeps getting better. I really want to get a steam frame when it comes out so I can experience it in all its glory.
It’s barely recognisable from the below average game that released in 2016. There used to be nothing to do in it, now there’s so much to do that it’s overwhelming. It’s a very good game now, and you have to give credit to Hello Games for what they’ve done to make it what it was always supposed to be.
Still some things I don’t love about it, but on the whole it’s well worth playing if you’re into that type of game.
The way the game launched makes me never want to buy a game from them again. It’s nice it’s better now, but now the game is almost 10 years old. They straight up lied about what was going to be in the game a release.
Now they are working on a new game and I’ll read things about how ambitious it is and fans hope they can deliver.
Lol no. They will do the same thing and lie about what’s in it to get people’s money. They may eventually make the game better, but they should be doing that before releasing pure lies.
As someone who bought it at launch, I give them credit for it. Hats off to them…
Still am never buying Hello Games games, or anything by Sean Murray, ever again.
$60 for an early access tech demo where they lied about dozens of features. It is still missing promised features after all of their work - which speaks more to the amount of bullshit they spew than the feature set because the features checklist is as shallow as a puddle.
