I picked up EGS years ago and I'm just starting to play it. Right now I'm just gathering resources but I don't know what my next steps are supposed to be as far as base or vehicle building goes. NMS looks interesting as well and it's half off on GOG for the next few days.
Does anyone have any experience with these games?
No Man's Sky was an over-hyped sandbox game last time I played it but that was years ago. I can't imagine it evolved into anything worthwhile short of them scrapping both the engine and the core game design to the point where it literally became an entirely different game.
Elite is NOT too big, every other game is too small. Elite's scale is exactly one to one. Just because it doesn't have a Sorting Algorithm of Threatening Geography like every braindead Nintendo game ever doesn't mean it is bad. The endgame of Elite is to put your name in the galactic records: https://edastro.com/records/ It's just not a game for you, so stop bashing my game.
You are a goddamn woman. You refuse to leave other peoples shit alone. Go away.
