This game is boring as hell

wuschelweich · Jul 11, 2015

Sorry guys, but this game is so incredibly boring. I could think of a million things to make it more interesting and surprising - but you seem to be happy with a little pew pew and hauling meaningles cargo from a to b; good for you. But thats not sufficient for me! Why is there no creativity or adventure? Playing this game feels like going to work to a job that sucks, where all your colleagues wear the same suits, sit around in the same grey office pressing the same buttons and eat the same tastless luch at exactly the same time. It must have been challenging to make the game that boring. I mean its a space sime; anything can happen. But they still managed to keep it totaly empty of any interesting content; Kudos for that. Its funny to imagine the devs sitting together and brainstorming - hahaha can you imagine how that went when you now see the final product? A load of highly intelligent programmers sitting together with absolutely zero fantasy or fresh ideas. Perhaps its the first time they had to program a game; could be that they are more into programming printer drivers - who knows..

Let's have some of your "million ways" then?

Not saying I agree or disagree with you, but a game simulating the job of moving stuff around in space is going to involve a degree of repetition whilst staring at a lot of black.

Ordinarily I wouldn't feed the troll, but this couldn't be left to stand...

David Braben has been making computer games since 1984 and was one of the 2 authors of the original Elite game.
He's been at this industry probably longer than you've been alive.

On the broad spectrum of constructive criticism I'd say this doesn't qualify. It's your opinion, there are lots of games out there that may cater better for your needs. It's odd that you weren't able to make a reasonable consumer decision as there is a huge amount of literature out there that explains what this 30 year old franchise does.

So, you don't like simple thing to do? Ok, then you should go to play EVE or something else more complicated. Blow your mind - brain. Go anxious on job, talk like that with your family, friend, girlfriend.

So far you could only see the success of this development house, rewards, good thoughts. To note, the game is still in development, but results are still great. Read the analysis, random people thoughts. There is no nothing boring as Hell, there is no such thing.
