spite,

I dislike the narrative that it’s “not officially out”. It is, for people who paid for it. It’s just that people who paid less need to wait.

I am also kinda upset that people can't post reviews on steam, it feels like cheating the system. The game is out, over 200 000 people are playing it, why can't we see its score? How is it different from any other big launch? Should all early access games not be reviewable until they are out, meaning some can't get a score for years and years?

I paid $0 and I’m playing it too 😉

bitsplease,

Concurrent players on launch is really only a metric of hype - from what I’ve seen so far in discussions, the game itself is shaping up to be a pretty big let down

Kinda seems like people hating just to hate. It's a Bethesda game in space, albiet with slightly more menu travel.

It's a fine game. I wouldn't say it's a let down unless you're expecting fully fledged landing and docking systems. I've actually been pleasantly surprised.

essellburns,

Hype inevitably produces that feeling of let down for some people.

I heard it kinda sux

CIWS-30,

From the grapevine, it's less that it sucks, more like it's meh. 7/10 and all that. Exactly what you'd expect from Skyrim / Fallout 4 in space, but somehow more bland in terms of characterization and storyline.

Same Bethesda shallowness and jank. People who just like exploring a big universe and doing repetitive stuff mindlessly will enjoy it, people who want more choice and character interaction with a compelling story probably will not.

It's kind of like the old Bethesda / Bioware split, except that Bioware's basically dead now, and Larian's doing what they used to do, but possibly better in some ways. Then there's Obsidian who used to be like Bioware / Bethesda but better in the past, but nowadays they seem content to just try to copy Bethesda while adding some "quirkiness" and hoping it'll work.

RaineV1,

Most reviewers have given it a good score. Usually around 8/10. ACG has a pretty good review of the good and bad where he gave it a buy rating.

Stuka,

Is that supposed to be impressive? They are selling the game and allowing purchasers to play. If course there’s gonna be people playing.

It’s sad to see menu travel and cutscenes when so many games have done interplanetary travel I’m a much more fun way. Like Outer Wilds
