If you post something like that, please just include the price in the title. The percentage alone means nothing.

Mostly agree but which currency should posters include? All of them?

Vast, but shallow is how I described the game a few years ago.

It goes a little deeper with every new update, and I'm here for it. Giving my 970 a hard time though, not gonna lie

I always try to come back every couple of patches, but i can't get past how shallow it is. Yes, bazillions of planets, but somehow everything feels the same.

The lore got a lot more interesting with Singularity and now Echoes, but yeah, the core game is still very much the same.

But then again, sometimes I actually want a game like that. It allows to me to wind down and occupy my brain without having to think too much.

TIL i bought this game at some point in the past.

If you play it in VR I've a pretty amazing experience!

[–] vlad76@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does the normal game support vr, or is it a separate game like Skyrim and fallout? I have a vive I might try it

[–] chepox@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Normal game support. It is really cool. My PC connected to an Oculus2 via Virtual Desktop on a 5GHz wireless network struggles but manages. Always wondered what a hefty PC with an Index would look like.

It often goes on sale when a major update comes out.

[–] tumbleweed05@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It hasn’t dropped 60% since 2018, 50% seems acceptable.

Sure, buy it if you want it! I'm not saying not to buy it. Just spending awareness of steamdb in these sale posts

I've been wanting to pick this up for a while especially since how it's apparently gotten much better since launch, but with Starfield around the corner I might have to wait lol

[–] HappyMeatbag@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Starfield will inevitably have a few (or quite a few) bugs at first, and won’t have even one expansion pack for a while. If you have to put it off for a bit, you won’t be missing much.
