Are oceans finally oceans or are they still as deep as a fucking puddle?
My only enjoyment from this was making bases since there really isn't anything else in the game and I never made a proper underwater one due to how every single "ocean" was just shallow as fuck.

If you are a HG employee, I'm being serious.You guys should look into expanding existing systems. The bugs are cute and a welcome addition, but things like Derelicts, Frigates and Frighters, Crafting and automation. I really want a reason to have a base for more than just making money.
>>
>>683703110
still kinda boring and janky despite all they have added. and their planet tweaking fucked up my cool planet I built a base on that had perfect weather, pink meadows and floating bubbles.

I think one mistake Sean has made apart from failed promises is making this game basically sexless.

If this game had female body presets and clothing you faggots would be all over it.

I made a lot of money scrapping Sentinel ships but it also makes me feel kinda bad since part of the process is fixing their AI to be nice. Feels like getting a wild animal to trust you just to dump it into a meat processor.

that list is shit. It makes routine tasks sound a lot better than they are. For example
>mine resources
>mindlessly shoot a rock with a laser.
At least in Minecraft you have to navigate cool caves and fight monsters to mine, but here it's boring and mindless.

Also the list repeats a lot of tasks at least 3 times.
>>
>>683703110

It's just procedurally generated slop. Every space station and building looks almost exactly the same, and like half the quests are just "wait several hours for x"

Some of the planets and creatures look kind of cool, but outside of that the game is just bland. It's certainly better than it was on release, but that's not saying much.

It's never solved the problem of just being a camera and not a game. All games are a camera in essence. But the direct interaction with the environment is supposed to feel physically real. Some games suck and don't do this well. But it's hard to find a game where there is a bigger distance between the player camera/view and the interactions between the environment.

I just wish that some dude took this game and remade the whole thing. No matter how much is added, and there is an incredible amount there to make amazing game, it is clear that this game has fundamental problems in the coding that will never be solved.

I'll check it out again. I'm not one of those people who relish in games being bad, I want good games. If they have buildings and stations with some actual variety and I don't have to wait 4 hours with my thumb up my ass for basic quests, I'll probably enjoy it this time m

I admire the hustle of the devs and the fact that they're willing to be so consumer friendly and expand their game as much as possible to appeal to people which is why I am very sad to say that the game at its very core is boring as fuck and absolutely not worth playing.
Ten trillion updates later and the entire game is still just about going to planets and hoping they look pretty.

>fully exploring planetary fauna

I always get stuck with one missing that I can never fucking find. Also for full completion to turn in at the guy in the space station I have no idea how I'm still missing like 10 rocks and 5 plants after so long on a planet. Where do these things like to hide?

infinitely worse. It's a shame Starmade got abandoned by the devs, but even then it's still a better game than Nu Male's Sky

>>683722901
>Do you do anything besides mine the same shit on different planets yet?
Of course not.
>Also can you fuck the aliums now?
Of course not. Also you wouldn't want to, they are the stupidest looking aliens ever. They just look like green blobs with frog-like features.
>>
>>683724320
Most of them are redditors who have never let go. They're the people who buy billboards and ads to thank the devs because they're so heckin' wholesome.
