Brilliant concept. Execution a little lacking.

There doesn't seem to be any overarching goal in this game. Maybe I just haven't found the main objective yet. So far, I've been just going from planet to planet exploring. Graphics are sort of simple and lacking in detail. The animals, plants and land features are not very realistic looking and in many cases childish looking. Shouldn't the animals on cold planets have thick fur? Many planets light years apart have very similar plants and features. And so far they all seem to have the same flying scanning drones and "alien made" modules, pods and mini factories. So I guess we are to believe the same aliens have colonized all these planets? The jet pack is fun when exploring on foot, but why is the gravity exactly the same on a small moon as it is on a large planet? Hmmm... The concept of this game is great, but it's too bad it wasn't developed by a bigger company with more creative horsepower and experience with open-environment games like Bethesda Studios. Then it could have been fantastic.Read full review
