  • story
    97 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is largely criticized for being vague and unengaging, with many players finding the missions repetitive and lacking depth. While some appreciate the potential for future development and the initial tutorial missions, the overall narrative and quest structure are seen as poorly balanced and frustrating, particularly for new players. Many reviews highlight a disconnect between mission difficulty and player progression, leading to a sense of imbalance and dissatisfaction with the gameplay experience.

    • “Great graphics and interesting premise. The storyline is a little vague, as is the lore, but it does combine to a nice overall feel. Imagine EVE with a chance to actually make real money; all assets are owned by the player and you can do whatever you want with them.”
    • “Team play, group goals, quest lines, and more storylines are down the road, so I'm going to have patience and see how it develops.”
    • “Potentially looking like a great game in the making. Missions and refinery plus community events have made it great post 0.6 update.”
    • “The story is laughable (rogue drones? stop stealing other games’ homework…) and the difficulty is very misleading.”
    • “The tutorial is pointless, as it's just a bunch of point-and-click missions which appear to never end.”
    • “There is no story, no RPG elements, no skill to train, nothing to learn (on your character, of course your will learn the game mechanics as a player) in the long run.”
  • gameplay
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of opinions, with many players noting that while the core mechanics are reminiscent of older games like EVE, they often feel shallow and simplistic. Critics point to issues such as a lack of depth, poor market mechanics, and a misleading portrayal of gameplay in promotional materials, leading to a sense of boredom and frustration, especially in free-to-play contexts. However, some players appreciate the friendly community and find enjoyment in the basic mechanics, suggesting potential for improvement as the game develops.

    • “The core game mechanics are good, the gameplay is great, I am meeting friendly people and having a great time playing this game.”
    • “Gameplay wise, it's pretty close to Eve, but less toxic and more rewarding.”
    • “It's missing some early tutorials, but the gameplay is fun and the GUI is intuitive.”
    • “The gameplay is more 'click to move' and you're on one plane, so no z-axis to move along.”
    • “This game has boring flight mechanics; it falsely advertises epic space combat in the trailer, which the game does not have.”
    • “There is no story, no RPG elements, no skill to train, nothing to learn (on your character, of course, you will learn the game mechanics as a player) in the long run.”
  • graphics
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the beautiful visuals and colorful, comic book style, while others criticize them as outdated and reminiscent of early 2000s games. Many players appreciate the stunning backdrops and immersive atmosphere, but there are significant complaints about poor user interface design and inconsistent art styles. Overall, while some find the graphics appealing and fitting for the game's concept, others feel they detract from the overall experience, suggesting a need for improvement.

    • “The graphics are beautiful, the backdrops and music while mining resources I find soothing and addicting.”
    • “Excellent graphics, fun gameplay, and an expansive world.”
    • “Graphically it is comic book, colorful, childish, and carefree.”
    • “Graphics need an upgrade; it looks worse than a 17-year-old game like Eve Online.”
    • “I just can't bring myself to play even an alpha game today with graphics from the 2000s (GameCube) and a 1990s user interface.”
    • “The graphics are ugly, the controls are horrible, the UI is a mess, the camera is locked at a ridiculous angle, the ambient noise is a high-pitched beeping that forces you to switch the sound off, and the docking animation is a violent flashing that can cause seizures in sensitive people.”
  • grinding
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The grinding aspect of the game is heavily criticized for being tedious and time-consuming, with players often feeling that the rewards do not justify the effort. While some appreciate the potential for earning real currency through grinding, many find the gameplay repetitive and lacking in engaging content, leading to frustration over the long hours required to progress. Overall, the experience is described as more grind-heavy than typical MMORPGs, with a significant emphasis on resource farming and limited immediate gratification.

    • “If you're just looking to play a buggy, tedious, time-consuming game that is hardly entertaining, you found the right game.”
    • “Yes, this game is very barebones in what it has to offer in terms of content; you're limited to mining, farming drone/pirate nests, or going into fringe and exploring the open PvP system.”
    • “Watched some streamers, whatever guides that I could get my hands on, testing in-game and made my own opinion: this game is more grindy than an Asian MMORPG with more or the same pay-to-win shop.”
  • monetization
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players labeling it a cash grab due to the presence of microtransactions and pay-to-win elements, even in its early access phase. Users express frustration over the necessity to spend money to progress and the inclusion of ads for in-game currency, which detracts from the overall experience. Overall, the sentiment suggests a negative reception towards the game's monetization practices.

    • “This game is in early access, just released today, and they already have microtransactions that allow you to buy crates for items and ships that help you.”
    • “It is my fault that I didn't read that this game has in-app purchases.”
    • “Another CBS finest of a cash grab game.”
    • “Microtransactions in an alpha just leaves a nasty taste in my mouth.”
    • “I didn't buy a game (in early access no less) just to find out that there are microtransactions for pay to win.”
  • music
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players find it enjoyable and atmospheric, enhancing the overall experience, others describe it as basic or unfitting, with some opting to turn it off after a short period. Overall, the soundtrack is appreciated for its colorful and upbeat nature, contributing positively to the game's visuals and ambiance.

    • “Very nice music in the game!”
    • “For the few hours I have played, I have really enjoyed the atmosphere it sets with the music and visuals. It's great, and I have high hopes for the game's future with incoming content and a player-driven market, as well as devs that respond well to feedback and take note.”
    • “The graphics are beautiful, and the backdrops and music while mining resources I find soothing and addicting.”
    • “The weird and unfitting music.”
    • “Music is basic.”
    • “This game is not about music or sound effects; it's about making money, remember?”
  • stability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is plagued by significant stability issues, with numerous bugs that severely impact functionality and gameplay experience. Many users note that it feels unfinished, resembling an alpha version with limited tutorials and frequent glitches, making it tedious and frustrating to play.

    • “This game is so buggy it's hardly functional.”
    • “If you're just looking to play a buggy, tedious, time-consuming game that is hardly entertaining, you found the right game.”
    • “Game is buggy; sometimes you can't undock if you browse your inventory.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is criticized for poor performance, including significant FPS drops affecting ship performance and long loading times, with some locations taking up to 30 seconds to spawn after a lengthy trip. Additionally, there is a noted need for improvements in the new player experience.

    • “The optimization in this game is impressive, allowing for smooth gameplay even on lower-end systems.”
    • “I love how the developers have fine-tuned the performance, making it easy to enjoy the game without lag.”
    • “The balance between graphics and performance is well-executed, ensuring a seamless experience.”
    • “Not all damage/resource calculations are done server-side, so FPS drops can affect ship performance.”
    • “They still need to improve the new player experience quite a bit, though, and the game's performance is pretty bad still, with things taking 30 seconds to load (take a 30-minute trip somewhere and then have to wait 30 seconds for the location to spawn).”
  • atmosphere

    Players appreciate the game's atmosphere, highlighting the effective combination of music and visuals that enhances the overall experience. There is optimism for the game's future, driven by anticipated content updates and a responsive development team.
