No Man's Sky Orbital Update brings full ship customisation and a complete space station overhaul - Lemmy.World

It’s pretty amusing that this game went from over hyped to an absolute dumpster fire to probably one of the best space games ever made. One hell of a comeback story.

Meanwhile in Star Citizen.

And they’re all “in stock”. How lucky!

Fwiw, you can get deep discounts CCU chaining ships. Ships can also be unofficially “sold” and “bought” after the fact. It’s done through gifting. For example, you can get the Hammerhead at the impound for less then half the price. The impound is also one of the higher priced sites to. There are also unofficial ships sales on reddit to that have even lower prices.
Hammerhead - Standalone Ship

Wow, only $400 for a thing in a videogame? What a goddamn bargain, sign me right the fuck up!

For the cost of that Hammerhead it had better also come with an entire computer to play the damn game on.

At least in Elite: Dangerous the only cost for ships is your time and/or sanity.

Ahh, reminds me of grinding for reputation so I can get the Cutter and Corvette. I still keep Elite installed and still waiting to get the will to start that game. Odyssey really left a bad taste on my mouth.

Yeah. I liked Odyssey for wandering around my carrier’s interior and really very little else. The combat is absolute dogshit, and that wouldn’t be half as bad if pretty much every on-foot mission type did not inevitably downright require pissing off some faction or another, which then forces you to get involved in combat. The gunplay is pants, and I can’t fathom why there are so few hitscan handheld weapons in a universe that’s all about laser beams and railguns and shit. And then when you’re done with the annoying combat you have a ton of bounties stacked up you have to deal with.

At least the mercenary missions let you just shoot people for the sake of shooting people. But if I wanted to bounce around in low-grav and shot guys with silly weapons I’d just play Borderlands.

That reminds me, I probably need to grind some cash to pay the upkeep on my damn carrier.
