Lets quickly run down why this game sucks and blows
1: Super boring surveying system, No Mans Sky does better.
2: Super boring RNG Dungeons when landing, they all repeat and there's only 1 variant. Have fun!
3: The fact you constantly just fast travel because the game is set in space, but you do this constantly. No video calls or anything.
4: The 2 human factions mean nothing, they're both good guys and there is no war. The war is mentioned in logs and lore and you're supposed to just know, but there's no active wars going on. Nothing cool or unique to see.
5: Horrific bugs in which your space ship will be slowly deleted, or New Atlantis won't generate the floor.
6: Story is easily forgettable and relies on NG+, this makes the entire product feel rushed. Why do we keep enabling Bethesda to just churn out garbage? You could probably beat the game in 5-10 hours if you tried, but I suspect even faster.
7: There are laser guns, no plasma guns for some reason, magical buffs like your gun igniting someone for no reason, or being better at bashing, and ballistic firearms still reign supreme. Also there's a caseless shotgun. Why? Caseless ammunition is bad!
8: Most characters are now essential, and cannot be killed. They are also annoying and beg to be shot.
*I will not list more, but consider things like daring to pick up an object is now considered a crime! Random gen NPC's also look god awful!

Now lets dig into what was good
1: When the game wasn't random gen, things like Kryxx's Legacy were genuinely well made, and cool.
2: The spaceship designer is neat, and upgrading your ship is fun, but I hate the fact the camera is inverted in the designer.
3: Gun modifications when allowed, is neat, but limiting. But still requires random resources.
4: A much more sleek and unique character creation system.

They could have done so much more with the game, but current day Bethesda is garbage. A shadow of it's former self. [/h1]
