Why not? Not only you was much different, the game was a different man too. I want to like this game, but the gameplay loop and activities seem not for me. I played it for a few hours years ago and might go back and try again.

10 years, I was a much different man when I first played this game. Part of my would like to forget the time and start fresh with all these updates.

I’ve played it after several of the updates and it’s pretty much the same game with a new coat of paint. A mile wide and an inch deep. But the game keeps getting wider and playing it now for the first time would probably be pretty great.
I loved it when it first came out because since I was a little boy playing Atari in the 80s I wanted to play a game where I could fly to space, between planets, and back in real time. This was the first game that gave me a satisfying experience like that. And it’s still my favorite part.

I’m about to start ELITE: Dangerous (played the ELITE game on NES way back…) which also have the first person element nowadays. Did you try that one yet? I still wait for Star Citizen to be “completed”, in the sense that I do not like playing Early Access periods.

I got a copy of that to play with my son. Turned out it’s online and we shared an account so he played it and I watched on occasion.
He loved it but it’s done with it. It’s something I could install and have a go at it now that I think about it.
I’ll give it a go this weekend.

I remember feeling like I was scammed when this was very early development and even after initial release… bros really redeemed themselves.

They did for sure, and he’s now careful about what he says which is smart. He learned a ton through that very public failure.
I’m looking forward to their next game.

I’ve started fresh a number of times with these updates and unfortunately what that does is just highlight how disparate tacked on many of them are. They do not make for a coherent, well integrated experience at all. I’m certain it’s a better experience to just be a long time player who logs back in for every update.

That makes sense to me.
