I still want my money back. I've tried all their updates and the game still feels bleh, underwhelming and just overall boring
I can only speak for myself but I didn't like it because it felt like the same experience over and over. I admit I haven't played since launch, but back then, i quickly realized all the planets had the same minerals. They had different randomized animals and colour's but they were generally just the same. And then I lost interest, because I was hoping to be able to find rare minerals, unique items, stuff that wouldn't exist in other parts of the universe, and perhaps he able to trade it with other players or npcs.
I guess I wanted a different game than what the makers wanted.
Looking at the video now, it still looks like the same basic experience with improved graphics.
I think of it like an oil slick on a pool of water. Very pretty, but absolutely zero depth. They indulge heavily in the aesthetic of a space sim, without actually having anything of substance tying it all together into something coherent.
Yeah, they overpromised and then didn't deliver on half of what they claimed. That they are applauded now for doing some of what they said they'd do is laughable to me.
