Seems kind of like the game is just suffering from reactionaries, but I definitely don't put that much stock in critic reviews these days either.

I have tried to play NMS four separate times now. I just cannot get past a certain point where it feels like repitition towards some kind of story line that is always one stept away of "something interesting". The mechanics of the gameloop are maybe a bit too obvious, which takes away form the immersion. I end up shelfing it because something else catches my goldfish like attention. Then a year later a major update comes out, and I think "maybe it's good now"?

Am I doing it wrong?
