This game is a solid 8.5 - 9/10. I love the setting of this game with its realistic take on scifi, its filled with an absolute mountain of high quality content and im loving that every single person i talk to is voiced. Some of the graphics in this game are absolutely astounding such as the ships and their interiors and indoor mission environments and character equipment. Outdoor environments can vary between fine and pretty good, but oh my god i love just walking through the buildings and ships, filled with a million items you can pick up. Its a slow burn AND PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU TRY EVERYTHING YOU CAN IN THIS GAME, there is so much content that is almost hidden or not told to you in this game that you have to look for and discover yourself. The game doesnt hold your hand to much in that aspect.

Ship combat and traversal is great (make sure you invest in perks) although some may be disappointed its not as deep as other similar games, its not as shallow as people think (there are ways to roleplay to make it more realistic such as using scanner to traverse a system without going through menus).

Performance is pretty hit or miss and will hopefully be fixed with patches (there are also some mods that can help, particularly for nvidia GPUs). It works well enough but its not great. Ran on Ryzen 5600X and RX6700XT and had a mostly solid 60fps at high/ultra settings, do some tweaking here to squeeze fps.

Yes there are bugs, but i havnt run into any glaring bugs, just NPCs sometimes floating or jerking around a bit. Absolutely not a deal breaker at all.

There is to much to content to fit in a steam review, just play it, please. Its a bit of a slow burn but please, just let it do its thing and you will love it!
