I played the game on the latest patches and fix updates, only faced couple minor glitches which you would find in any other game! Storywise its not bad at all, but not mindblowing either. it was overhyped indeed! but it is still a good game which i thouroughly enjoyed and found really interesting! its unique and full of new ideas! although it has so much potential to become much better, so much raw sources to make this game a better version of itself, Maybe a DLC like Witcher 3?

Short Review: a sandbox space text adventure; the experience is hard to explain and can only be felt the first time you play, knowing nothing about it, any spoiler is detrimental. your main drive is at first simple curiosity and then a sense of urgency to save your world. try to just stay in game for more than an hour, the rest of the feeling will just come by itself.

Long review:
(10-no problem, 9- few minor problems, 8- few major problems, 7- a lot of major p., 6- it delivers on the fun, but not more, 5- it tries hard but fall short , 4-1- different variants of sh**)


---{Story 10/10}--- (the main dish of this game)
-horror: while not a horror game, the feeling of fear, dread, hopelessness can be felt.
-story arc and lore: every now and then the game resets, leaving you only with the info you gathered till that moment. and while everything you read is more or less a hint for you, they also act as lore, giving context to everything. a lot of the games feel is to empathizing with those who came before.
-realism: the game is inherently a fantasy, trying hard to talk science with real-world equivalent, and at the end it delivers.

---{Visuals: 9/10}--- (-1 for lack of small detail)
-Detail only where needed; the game has nearly no visual detail in places you wont go to too often.
-Cartoonish; it fits the theme
-vibrant and alive; everything continues to go, as if you didn't exist,
-variety; many different places with different looks and styles.
-artful: in a lot of the places, you just want to look at.

---{Sound 9.5/10}--- (-0.5 nothing too special)
great timing: the tracks themself are simple, but combined with the enviorment, and timing, and you have an impact

---{Gameplay: 8.5/10}--- (-1.5 for performance)
-connect the dots: the game really helps you to make connections. even giving you "ship logs" which is technically a board of all things you saw and read, and it even connects the dots for you. BUT, you have to use your brain.
for example: you see a corpse in a room, with the text in its hand saying "im going to put this text outside of the room"; that means this person died before he could do that; now you have to ask, why is he dead, he doesn’t mention pain or anything, he just die suddenly?.
if this process feels natural, you’ll be ok.
---------------------------------
-performance: it won’t run smooth, it’s to be expected of a simulation game, but this is a bit worse than expectation
-player driven: you have to ask and look for answers. Why you do that, will change over time.
-Sandbox: nearly all you do has no impact as it resets after a while, the only thing you can change, is your knowledge of the world
-Ship control: physics based. it’s not a simple point and move, you will get better at it while you go forward.
objective system: while the game has a "go here" system (a sound beam detector), nearly all stuff are in places that either look cool, or act in odd ways (e.g.: smoke going up in the middle of nowhere)
-Text hunting*: a lot of text all around the place, but written well, just long enough to give depth, and since you might read something you shouldn't, it has hints to places to understand more.
if you’re like me, and only read a book when you run out of sleep pills, then you will have a hard time in this game, (as i did) my advice is to set the language to something else (so to be unable to read) and explore the visuals for a while, remember, this game resets every now and then, so nothing you do has an effect, so don't worry about being spoiled with what you see INGAME (not on google)
---------------------
-Audience: anyone willing to listen (for at least 1 hour)
-PC Requirements: a good pc, but the game is also inherently slow-paced, so even 20fps would be enough.
-Difficulty: This was the first time I played an adventure game. For me connecting the dots and getting around was easy. So much so, that I finished the game without even exploring 2 of the planets (I found the secret they had to offer by accident and trial and error)
-Game Time: I finished it in 10 hours
-Price: Fair enough
-Bugs: Some bugs, nothing to important
-updates, DLC, replayability: the only thing you hate in this game (if you finish it) is the fact that when your journey ends, its over. Nothing more. nothing less. you can now go from new game to finish in 15 minutes or even less. I’m really jealous of those whom haven’t been spoiled by the game

---{Graphics}--- (Its a strategy game)
Highly Detailed
Eyegasem truly

---{Gameplay}--- (you wont get to scratch your head)
Snowballing is real and putting anything on auto is a sin
40% economy management, 30% diplomacy (said to change soon), 30% everything else
So many things that can be done at any time
its 4x at the beginning, but becomes grand strategy style later

---{Audio}--- (its slow and relaxing but gets old)
its great, even better with workshop items

---{Story}--- (read to death)
NEED DLC, the raw game doesn't have much to offer
Its doesn't have a story line, instead many small, quest like stories

---{Audience}---
anyone willing to learn (for hours...)

---{PC Requirements}--- (it'll run no matter what, but...)
it'll slow down anyway over time, no matter the system you have, (i9 CPU not included)
the better PC (mostly CPU), the longer it takes the game to start slowing down

---{Difficulity}--- (practice and time, and brains)
takes time to learn
hard to start, less hard to master
the AI is ain't dumb, but easy to beat, even on hard

---{Game Time}--- (Long)
it'll take a long time to finish a game (if you don't get killed)

---{MODS}--- (music, gameplay, everything...)
Great stuff for free

---{Price}---
YOU'LL NEED TO BUY THE DLC'S, so... buy when on off

---{Bugs}---
every update, new bugs, new stuff, a pain, but what can you do

---{DLC}---
the only hate you'll have at this game, is the fact that new content are (nearly) always released as DLC, but in exchange the game gets truly great updates (and DLC's), acceptable, but a pain anyways
