I'm buying it on steam when i get home, ready for release.

I never really gave the game any attention. Saw the same few clips hundreds of times of ship flying around. Now ive seen gameplay and reviews and im glad i was never keen on it. A giant world is all well and good but there doesnt seem much to do that id find fun

Concept is cool but it's no EVE. Not that I've played either (I do have Elite Dangerous though, haven't played that either). Looks quite boring, you grind for resources to upgrade stuff and explore? I guess if you're into that then it might be fun. Single player only it seems.

[Leroy Peterson]

Lol its actually multiplayer but the odds of running into another player is extremely slim. You can leave your mark on planets you discover for others to find

But apparently you can't see or interact with each other.

Yeah, bit of a shame really. It seems the developers (Hello Games) don't want to state definitely if it's possible either.

Two streamers planned on meeting at a point, they got to the point and didn't see each other. "server load" apparently lol.

Games based on procedural generation sound like they have a lot of stuff but in reality it's been built by a limited tool set so things repeat over and over and it gets boring very quickly.

NMS was a nice idea, it is a poor game.

Apparently Cumdrencher was still a valid name for animals.

Get Elite instead? I have Elite, never played it (no time).

[ianjb]

so far. the game

• starts very slow
• required a fair bit of grinding
• is getting a lot better after 6-7 hours of play.
