CAVEAT: I'm recommending this game in the long run, but not in it's current form.

I really want to love this game. I've put a decent number of hours into it, and while I haven't fully explored the storyline yet, I think I can give my thoughts at this point. To be fair to the Developer, the game is in early access and the Dev is constantly listening and updating the game, so I think that this game will be a gem in the long run. In it's current state though, it just gets boring quickly. I love the idea that the creator is leaning towards, but specific things need to get fixed for the game to truly shine.

Currently, combat is extremely boring and repetitive. Enemies do not have any special abilities or tricks, so combat is 100% straightforward. Enemies are always clumped together, so you never really get tactical combat, where you are dealing with enemies coming from multiple directions. Space combat is similar, with ships just flying around each other to keep their adjustable shields facing the enemy that is the greatest threat.

The tiered loot system is a great idea in concept, except that most of the time, once you get a legendary or epic piece (not hard to do) higher tier items aren't worth replacing it with. Making 90% of what you pick up garbage. Also the cost of items needs review. Many times, you'll see two of the exact same item but the cheaper one will have better stats.

I love that the world is so expansive, but it feels extremely empty. This applies to both Space (which, in reality I guess IS mostly empty) and worlds. Ruins and bases have entire rooms where there are no enemies or interactables. Even if these rooms were 90% of the time supplying just junk, it would still be more interesting and "living" than nothing.

I hope the Dev doesn't get discouraged and keeps plugging away at this. It has the potential to be great.

Good Game. Fully supported and worked on constantly. Its late early access I think at this point. I don't have many hours because I'm waiting for final release.

I like the game, but the game has a complete disregard for your time. Space wastes your time by taking forever to get anywhere. Dungeons waste your time forcing you to walk out of the dungeon through several load screens. Loot wastes your time by filling up your inventory (which has limited slots despite access to a functionally infinite stash from anywhere) with worthless items. Combat wastes your time with clunky animations and extremely limited movement.

The combat is very simplistic, but entertaining enough. The dungeons are pretty samey, but my autism doesn't mind that. The loot isn't prevalent enough to be a loot'em up, but like I said is prevalent enough to clog up your inventory constantly, and the actual important stats of a piece of gear isn't conveyed partcularly well. Like weapons, the actual damage a weapon does is one of the smallest elements of the UI.

It's someone's passion project, and maybe there is passion here, but I don't think the passion is going to be worth it for people.
