The game is aggressively Bethesda but I'm enjoying the visuals and sniffing the 3d model of every insignificant bit of detritis in the world. I saw a very nice looking bowl, maybe THE bowl of all videogames. Other than that the narrative and main story has already lost my interest after about 10 minutes and I'll be off being a space menace if the game will let me.

Once i found out I can travel using the ship in scanner mode it doesn't feel like a map simulator anymore.

Also the chef having a perk for dueling tickles me.

Game also runs like shit on PC but digital foundry showed most settings being on medium yields good performance with no noticable quality loss.

    It makes sense considering it’s so heavily inspired by NASA for aesthetic and vibe. It’s cool when viewed from a distance but examining the details and thinking critically for a second makes you realize exactly how fucked up and nazi adjacent it all really is

    Sounds like the entire appeal of the SPREAD THE LIGHT OF CONSCIOUSNESS TO THE STARS(tm) marketing euphoria pushed by SpaceX once enough layers are peeled away.
