An Empty Shell
There are fans raving about "Starbound", but they're really fans of the hypothetical game that early-access buyers were promised years ago. What's really there is some basic gameplay that's less interesting than "Terraria", and features suggesting that maybe, one day, there might be a story and planets that aren't random, boring, and effectively identical. The devs posted last year that the game is "basically done" except that people are holding them to an especially high standard. Example: early on we saw a story intro for one of the races. It's still not in the game. In fact the story's still barely there for any race, and nothing you do (prison raids, attacking evil ape bases, &c) has any effect on the overall setting. The "frequent status updates" have generally been posts like "Look, we made custom pet collars!" (Check out their site to see for yourself.) To be fair, they've been hinting at future story missions in the last few days, but this is after years where the devs went from "near-daily content updates" to "frequent updates to an Unstable branch" to "rare Unstable updates, frequent 'Daily' updates." The two "big" "overhaul" features in the last year are a slight change to combat, and being able to create basic settlements that summon NPCs. It's something, yeah, but you're still paying for an incomplete and not terribly interesting game. Try "Terraria" instead.
