I’m a new gamer (1 month now) and absolutely love it. Hands down one of the best games ever, imo. With the new Omega update, I decided to go read the last updates’ patch notes, and to my surprise I discover that practically 90% of the game I know today was actually only added in 2018 with the NEXT update! Even basic stuff like having a teleporter anywhere on a planet, doing space station missions and even ringed planets didn’t exist before.

My question is, to Day-1 players, what were you guys even doing for 2 whole years?! Did you just land on planets, scan and that was it? I mean, I guess I understand the whole backlash thing now if that’s what you guys could only do.

I read all of the hate, waited a couple of days, and then held my nose and dove in. I station jumped to get more suit tech slots and am mostly back to where I was. My ships took a pretty big hit. I paid and scraped for more slots and am adding trails and bobbleheads to my favorite ship but they’ll never be as OP as they were before. Still fairly invincible though. I shifted from AI to stasis device farming for money a while ago so all good there.

Overall my biggest complaint is still the lack of procedural diversity, an inventory sort button, and listing the galaxy on the discoveries tab/screenshots. I do like the larger stacks and inventories and some of the visual updates. Overall, pretty solid meh. Mostly I just really appreciate the HG team for sticking with this game and continuing to do all this without charging for it.

What would you like to see in the next update?
