But... but... Sean Murray is such an altruist, gave us a BIG and FREE update. The game surely must be good now, right?

The logic of 99% positive reviewers right now, despite the fact that nothing has changed and they're doing the same thing as before (farming resources to fly to another planet).

Okay I can give my final review for this game.
Shit/10, i'm done with this game, even mods cannot help here because core gameplay is inherently flawed, you just collect resources over and over again without no end, waiting for Starfield and Beyond Good and Evil 2.
When Makabb says it's shit, you know things are pretty bad.

Did anyone here really really think this would change?

I don't know. There actually seem to be really changes involved. Basically they are trying to fulfill their promises. And their main appeal was actually the flying around and visiting countless planets and see the wildlife.

I never expected more than a popamole console game and nobody should have expected more. For consoles I can see it's as groundbreaking as Oblivion was for them.

But they also said it was supposed to be chillout,,,,, gathering 100 heridium to craft 50 plates of something to repair something that you need 100 of something to fuel it is NOT chillout but annoying.

Depends on your personal preferences. Some people consider that zen-like similar to fishing :D

Go watch 20 minutes of gameplay of this if you feel like you might be falling for the myth that updates have "fixed" this game.

The new update makes the game much more interesting because now, with third person camera, you can actually watch yourself gather shit all day.

10/10 best game ever.

I don't know if the game is any good yet as I haven't even fixed my first ship or finished the tutorial section yet.

The interface is big with minimal slots, you shoot rocks and plants while holding the left mouse button down to harvest materials.

But the weird thing is that the menus require you to hold down the left mouse button and watch an apple circle spin just to click an interface button. I keep clicking menu buttons and nothing happens, then when I HOLD THE LEFT MOUSE BUTTON DOWN for a second or two it registers. I really don't understand it. I'm not sure why they discarded the whole 'click your left mouse button' thing that I've been using since the Atari ST/Amiga days.

It's confusing and annoying, I don't have high hopes for this. It makes you wonder if the devs have ever used a computer in their life before.

There are people that fell for the X Stillbirth "updates made it better" scam too, so not surprising.

Believe it or not, but shitty interface was one of the main complaints since the release (along with the flight model).
It was simply painful to play it, no matter the content or other flaws the game had.
Apparently, they don't even consider fixing it.

I blame Destiny. It started this modern "totally sleek and not built for gamepads interface, but by god we'll force it on you" look.

I pity all the foolish Youtube LP people who are now forced to re-visit this piece of shit because their 13 year old fans want to know if its fixed yet.

If they can run around naked and pew-pew their 3 friends with LASERS in multiplayer, the 13 year olds will be happy.

Sad!

With the NEXT update the game is finally what it should have been at release. The problem with that is, that what was promised at release was still a pretty bad, bland game. It's still an interactive screensaver. Just now it's a screensaver you can play with friends with a little bit more to interact with.

So are every other games, to be honest.

So is also life.

Sad.
