A bland and forgettable space sim that tries to be inspired by the classics

A space warcrimesim that puts Stellaris to shame. If you are willing to sit through obtuse controls and slow gameplay then you will find this to be a satisfying conquest game that appeals to the cruel tyrant in all of us. Hail Zagar!

A set of unremarkable dungeons and a basic story with an ending that I want to completely rewrite. I know you guys can do better then this

if spiderman owned a spaceship

I think there used to be fun servers once upon a time? Nowadays the only servers of note are a very specific breed of RP server which are very much an acquired taste.
hurf lurf turf deathmatch is far past its prime. Play gmod instead

200 hours in and i dont want to play anything else

An underbaked and poorly-optimised game that needed at least another year of development time

Here's the nonviolent game that parents keep asking for, where the only enemies are steam geysers, heavy cargo, and your own aircraft which barely generates enough lift to stay in the air and all complete with a flight model that needs to be adapted by every other game

If you want an exciting action game you will have to look elsewhere but if you want a relaxing yet challenging game then look no further.

p.s. can we have an aliens-themed expansion this is the perfect flight model for a scifi dropship

Over there's a cool adventure, over here is a cool-looking place to explore ooh another well-written quest to do
This game is an explorer's dream. $11USD gives you a lot of stuff to do and see. It's a clean sub model as well; only one monthly fee for all the content and no cash stop whatsoever

I would give this a thumbs sideways if I could. I expect corporate to do better then this but there is at least some fun to be had here and it's not nearly as bad as some of the other stuff that exists. Still i've enjoyed my time despite myself

As of the time of this writing this game actually has people playing it and for the most part without a toxic attitude. They talk with each other, form rivalries, help clanmates acquire the latest ships, complain about not having enough coop and whine in chat about things that they don't have. Isn't this what I play a mmo for? To interact with other people?

Okay, how about how each ship tier offering something that other ships do not. Or how you can be as casual or in-depth as you want.
Or how mid-tier ships see use in pvp alongside the latest tech - if a ship is in your hangar then it will probably get used for pvp at some point.
Or how pvp tends to be a group activity with battles fought between rival guilds.


Unfortunately there is the grim specter of aggressive monetization that has become impossible to avoid these days and the only thing you can do is tolerate it.
There are annoying p2w mechanics where you can skip everything with $$$. The game also tries too hard to sell you stuff. Players rightfully complain about whales who just purchase their way to the latest ships then purchase ship repairs after each and every pvp fight.

but at least there are no lootboxes good riddance
