Does this game mainly appeal to shut ins who have no social life outside of the game? I sort of played the first one, WAY to much fiddling around with day to day trivia and people and the annoying things in REAL life. After quit after "journeying" to a few planets to perform "whatever" missions, after spending WAY too much time tediously running around that space mall shopping.
Going back to the first one after the second one was almost unbearable. They vastly improved the gameplay with 2 which is by far the best entry. Even then, that game still has endless tedious planet scanning for ore which takes forever and I hope they reformatted for the remaster.
and the method of travel. If only you could ACTUALLY (video perspective) TRAVEL...not jump (load screen) and stuff, then LAND your ship (or landing shuttle you ENTER from your ship) and disembark on foot. NOT "jumping" to next map/screen.
I HATE That about travel (space) games. MUCH more like GTA (seamless transitions mostly except for UNINTERESTING (go into house) areas IF NECESSARY) they should be.
