DISCLAIMER: This review is not to suck up to the game, its to give people who havent bought it an idea of what its like and if its worth the 15$

Ok im gonna try to write an unbiased opinion on this one, even though I absolutely love this game.

My Experience: My experience in Starbound has been amazing so far, I bought it on the weekend and by monday I had 30 hours logged on the game. The freedom you have in this game is simply amazing. Its infinite universe is the feature that stole my heart. Multiplayer was a bit difficult to get into. It took a bit for me and my mates to get into a game but it was worth it.

Pros:
1.Infinite Universe
2. Tons of items, planets and creatures to discover
3. Not everything wants to kill you and use your skin as coat rack
4. Amazing and smooth gameplay(you dont need a high end pc to have fun with this game)
5. The workshop just makes the game even more fantastic with mods like Frackin Universe and B.Y.O.S taking the spotlight

Cons:
1. Multiplayer can be a bit tough to get in to
2. Certain quest can be broken

Gameplay 8/10
It can lag sometimes and, as stated above, certain quest break. BUT you never run out of things to do. Even if youve done everything in the game just download Frackin Universe. Youll have an amazing time

Multiplayer (Public) 4/10
It can be rough. Theres a lot of errors and issues in public multiplayer. It may just be me but its trouble getting in to. Theres also barely any servers to find.\

Multiplayer(Private) 9/10
Its a bit hard to get in to because friends have to download ALL your mods but once you get in its amazing. Exploring the infinite universe with your mates is a one of a kind feeling

My conclusion: Yes. Its worth the 15$. Ive had so many great experiences with the game in the short time ive had it.

Overall rating: 8.8/10
