    I’ve only played a couple hours so far but I don’t understand the comparisons to no mans sky beyond the setting. It’s not a similar game at all.

      You shoot pirates, scan animals, and mine things… repeat. It really does feel a lot like “Shitty No Mans Sky” so far (about 4h in so far).

        You do the same thing in any number of space themed games. That doesn’t make any of them similar. This is nothing like NMS. They are completely different types of games.

        I can see why you would not like it if you were expecting NMS but it was never intended to be that. It claimed to be a BGS game in space, and so far they seem to have delivered on that.

          Come to think of it, most of the comments in this thread that are unhappy about it seem to be comparing it unfavorably to No Man’s Sky.

      Yeah what a retarded take. NMS is a lonely boring experience with the dullest ditch water plot (love those vague-nothing dialogues lol) and the worst gameplay loop in a while. Don’t worry they’re adding x pointless feature in an update!

      Granted I’m waiting on release to play SF, but no fucking way are the games similar.
