It's fucking Euro Truck Simulator 2: Space Edition with other people.
I love all the stupid bullshit they make you do, things like sitting your ass in space and waiting for the port to get an empty slot so you can fly right in. Makes the game super suspenseful when you're trying to smuggle slaves into a non-anarchy space port. It has this side benefit of making the game feel more "real", as real as you can get with faster than light travel, anyway.
That feeling of ecstasy when I finally bought a new ship and looked around and saw how fucking cool my new cockpit was cannot be matched by most games out today.
And that feeling of jerking the flight stick, frantically looking around trying to get a bearing on where this guy who's shooting you is is just fucking chaotic and insane.
I've already found ways to break the game though. I managed to sell a ship for easily three times what I paid for it because I'd put new equipment in it.
Seriously, if you like games that at surface seem boring but once you pierce the surface have a massive treasure trove of depth, I'd recommend this until I'm blue in the face.
I've pretty much mad the decision to get an occulus rift just because of this game.
And the weird thing about all this is that I fucking hate multiplayer. Dota? Can't fucking enjoy it, too many people. Call of Duty? Too many people. Team Fortress 2? Too many people? Elite Dangerous? It's a fucking MMO and I love it shitless.
Why didn't anyone tell me how fucking amazing this game is?
