I played the original one in 84, and love this genre of game since then (Wing Commander, Freelancer and many others)...I am glad that they released the game on Xbox One, even having a computer to play it too.I love space exploration/combat games, but the fact that this is simulator like is what's putting me off. Kind of the same story with EVE Online.What about the simulation style game puts you off?I just want to jump in my ship and explore/trade/fight.
From what I've seen everything in this game progresses slowly due to how realistic the game wants to be. I wish there was a demo or trial for this game so I could try it out and get a better feel for it.
EVE seemed great at first, but it's very complex and I prefer a combat style where you're actually flying the ship instead of clicking where it should go.
No Man's Sky seems great so far, but there isn't a lot of focus on multiplayer. Which is fine, but it will prevent it from really grasping me.Based on your description you might like this one. Within my first hour I was scanning systems and having pirates attack me. I messed with the arena yesterday to try and improve my ability to fly in combat. Pretty quick matchmaking although the team match playlists were pretty dead.
I did buy the module that auto-landed my ship. which I used for about my first 4 hours until I got the hang of it by watching the AI do the work.
What I love is that you don't start as some hero who can do everything. You have to hunt for missions since most missions on the board aren't available to you.
Have you watched any videos of people playing? If not you should to at least get a taste of it.
This isn't directed to you but others who commented on the achievements. Honestly, this isn't a game anyone should go into thinking to 100% it. The achievements do a good job of showing how expansive this game is which also means they will take lots of grinding if you are just playing for the achievements.
