I started playing this game in 2022 so well after the release and patches. Writing at 83h played. TLDR - Its worth with discount. Check the internet for tips because there are lot of mechanics that are not mentioned in game and they can ease the gameplay. + Exploring space and planets - BUGS, People saying how the game is better now. I dont know how bad it has been back in the day, but the game is buggy man. - Building is glitchy, mostly in freighter where I got stuck in rooms/walls many times and had to reload game. - Infinite spawn of enemies on planets, If you try to fly away, they will chase you around whole solar system, unless you hide in space station. - Grind. I usually dont mind grind, but here its quite big part of the game. - Game is repetitive. Planets will look the same after you explore a few (there are like 10-15 types of planets), same, animals and other game assets. I would rather have better story, and only like 100 planets with better setup than bilions of same planets with same stones but different shade of gray. Still waiting for propper space exploration game. Maybe next time
