Newcomer / Intro Is This Game Worth It?

It's important to be aware - it is more of a simulation than a game. There's no way to "win". There are no lengthy, involved quest lines or guilds. There are missions, but for the most part they are still simple deliver/fetch/kill missions.

If you want to be led by the hand through your pilot career, this game doesn't do that. It's pretty much up to you where you go and what you do.

On the other hand, if you want one of the most immersive space piloting experiences around, with the galaxy being your oyster, then this game's for you.

I must have spent ~ €1,000 on the game so far, between joysticks, pedals, head-tracker, eye tracker, ED, lifetime pass, paint-jobs... plus I hope to upgrade to a decent gaming PC next year which will likely triple that figure. Absolutely worth it, for me.
 
Is This Game Worth It?
hello space peoples. well the reason I'm posting this is because I've been looking at this game for a good while now and I cant seem to think if I should get it.. I've been feeling down lately so I kinda need a pick-me-up so to speak, but its 30 bucks and I really need to klnow if its good before I try to get the money XD well thank you for your time and plz post or message my steam ( http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198098567836 ) I'm also lookin for cool peoples to play with me if I do get it so feel free to add me for that XD thanks :)

My opinion: Yes it is totally worth it.
I love ED. It is addicting for me.
I have spent 2000 hour or so playing this game and I plan to keep doing so.

But you should realize that this is a game in development.
Features will be added, features will be changed.
Many people have difficulty dealing with that.

If you buy it, I recommend buying the version with Horizons included.
Landing on planets is cool and you will have access to all the new stuff included with this season.

It's amazing. Once the devs swallow their pride and allow a peaceful non interdiction option in solo play they will all be millionaires.

Eheh, nope. :D
I think more people would leave because of the boredom. :p
(I'm not saying interdictions don't need work, btw.)

But it can't be a complete Euro Truck Simulator. Galaxy is even more dangerous than Somalian waters.
 
If the OP or anyone else is interested there is a sale on E D on Steam (33% off):


Base game = £13.39

Commander Deluxe Edition (a pack containing game, Horizons and a "Commander pack" {some in-game goodies}) = £26.79


I think the "Commander Deluxe Edition" is a real bargain.


Sale ends Monday I think.

Considering how much I paid for it, that`s a bargain

30 bucks will only buy you the base game. You need another 30 bucks to get the Horizons expansion

No. The two together plus commander packer are currently 40 bucks and not long back that was 30 bucks so you could wait a while.
