This game looks cool but it's probably going to be boring as hell
It is exceedingly boring
Idk, NMS is bloody amazing!
When does it get amazing? I get so tired of managing my resources just so I can stay alive.
What difficulty are you playing it at?
For real! I tried playing it after it was "fixed", and it was just not a fun experience for me. I spawned on a planet that had none of the resources I needed to progress, so I would just die after slowly suffocating. After the third or fourth time it happened in a row, I just gave up on it.
Having life or death based on RNG within the first 10 minutes of the game is not a good experience. I'm sure some people got luckier with their spawns and are having a great time with the game, but several bad spawns in a row really soured it for me.
To be honest, it really is a boring game. I don't understand why people like it.
It's way too grindy and there's way too many resources to keep track of. I get that it's a survival game and it needs resources but they just make it ridiculous. in order to make something you have to craft a thing into X then Y then Z - you can't just directly craft into Z, so they're just artificially padding out the game because there isn't actually that much in the way of content.
From the start. I mean survival is part of the game. What did you expect?
I wish I could agree but it's so so boring.
I don't know, after they fixed everything I'd say the game is pretty neat for me rather than amazing but I'm glad you're getting that much fun out of it!
