I hadn't heard much about this game. The only things I had heard at time of purchase was that it was massive and epic and you could play with friends. Well, it is massive, but you can not play with friends. I'm not really sure what all was promised, but I do know that what it is on its own is disappointing and boring. There's almost no real reward for exploring a planet except to learn more of one species language and for resources. No one really says anything interesting, aside from a few neat rock formations you never find anything that interesting on planets, and space feels very devoid of things to do and dull. To be honest, after maybe five hours of game play I was so tired of the game I couldn't stand it and had to uninstall it.
