My experience is much like the others are saying in here. My initial response was oh wow it's like no mans sky, but worse. I'm mostly underwhelmed with it after a few hours of game play, and I'm torn between grinding along, hoping it gets better, or getting a refund before I've played for too long.

That's the part that scares me, I've played no man's sky, it was fun for a short while but then got tired pretty quickly.

If this game keeps getting compared to no man's sky and is said to come up short, then I'm definitely gonna wait to try it for cheap.

I've only played a couple hours so far but I don't understand the comparisons to no mans sky beyond the setting. It's not a similar game at all.
