There’s not too much to worry about, if you decide to go off and explore for a while.  I’m sure you’re familiar with the Space Anomaly at this point?  If so, those inside will put you back on certain story-related paths if you stray too far.  You just have to find them again.  They’ll show up in many systems.  

I haven’t found a lake yet either after this update. However, on a few of the ocean worlds, I have found places with trapped water that looks like lakes. There are worlds with lakes though. I had been to a few right after the initial release of the game. Actually they were more pond-scale, but big enough to stick a…

Yeah, they went silent (meaning straight to work fixing things and releasing nearly game-scale updates for free). Your point of view on this (while you have every right to it) is very tired now.  Maybe save the activism for something worthwhile.

Follow the tutorial step by step.  It’s a bit different than it used to be.  Before, you could just restart the game, and maybe end up somewhere safer.  Now it’s almost always a somewhat hostile place.  I’m guessing it’s to encourage you to get your systems up, get a few resources, and find your ship faster.

Now if someone would just make this with a Devil’s Crush theme.

It’s John McAfee on bath salts!!!

I still wish they had actual gas giants, but this is a good step.  

Can’t recommend this game enough.  It’s been a pleasure to play all the way through early access.  

I like them well enough. They aren’t without flaws, but they (along with GOG) are still the among the best things to happen to PC gaming. They make boneheaded decisions on occasion, but last I checked, they’re run by some form of humans. I just don’t have unrealistic dreams of Half Life sequels, and other…

For me, the difficult game in question just has to be worth the effort. I won’t play through a game, JUST BECAUSE it’s hard. However, I will play all the way through a hard game because it’s good. Some examples:

Oops, wrong thread.  :D

Ha! Now It’s playing in my head.  :)

The beta source port on Steam is a nice addition too.  Really nice new rendering system and overhauled controls.  I’ve only played on it for a few minutes, but it seems much improved over the already enhanced version.

It’s funny that Gibson has stated the opinion that he has actually. His trilogy is among my favorite reading of all time. Its stories are woven intricately, his characters highly developed, but at the same time. They revolve around simple plot elements like heists, faction wars, corporate espionage all describing in…

My wife doesn’t play, but likes to watch the DoA matches. Some of her friends will play, and we all enjoy it, on all levels. The fighting, the ridiculous outfits, everything. It’s the overall spectacle. We have as diverse a circle of friends as there ever was too. Heterosexual men and women, gay men and women, from…

While I personally will argue 100% for your right to dislike it, and to write about it as you see fit, I do disagree. I will also argue 100% for an artist (or group of artists) to imagine their game as they see fit. I’d never try to force a view upon you, just like I wouldn’t force an artist to conform to some…

I have one question. Were any of the people complaining in these threads actually in one of the world wars? I thought not. Quit whining and play a game FFS. Or don’t, but quit whining, and being shitty people.

Because it’s better that way :P

Definitely! It’s a shooter in its purest form mechanically. Precise, efficient, and transparent. You lose the feeling of controlling it, and just enter the game world. But then, that’s how id’s games are. I appreciate that they aren’t for everyone, and the very things I’m praising are at the bottom of some…
