Similar to the first game; story and art is pretty good but the gameplay is bugged and not fun even when it does work. Forced to use a bunch of mods and cheats just to skip the combat and bugged crime.

Gameplay elements in general reek of sweaty game developer ego.

UPDATE: I wrote this when I ragequit the game after I kept getting arrested by endless waves of guards during a quest cutscene. Now, after not touching the game for weeks, the game doesn't even work... can't even get to the main menu.

- Crashes all the time and doesn't save the game on crash
- Dialogue / story is boring, not even slightly interesting. Every piece of dialogue is just 1 dimensional filler for the constant fetch quests
- Quests: go here, get this item, either do the persuade minigame or kill enemies, go back
- The lockpicking minigame is just a boring waste of time and it's everywhere. Can game devs move beyond that now after the 500th implementation?
- FPS combat sucks: enemies are bullet sponges, weapon bullets don't go where you aim, feels like a game from 1998, and the areas with combat aren't even scripted or dynamic, it's like someone on garrysmod spammed a bunch of NPCs with guns around and then left the server
- Space combat sucks: it's like some sort of lazy mobile game, just isn't even slightly fun
- Contraband scans ruin the game; I picked up some sort of paperweight or something from somewhere and that made me an intergalactic criminal with an instant death penalty, warranting destroying my ship which had a CHILD ON BOARD! (who I didn't want on my ship in the first place)
- Way too much menu filler wasting time; any time you want to do anything you have to do a bunch of menus and loading screens just to do a quest objective where an NPC will give you three lines of edgy dialogue before you have to do it all over again
- Planets are just floating 2D jpegs (they actually look like jpegs)
- The game mechanics aren't fun and just lock away features or waste your time which encourages the use of cheats to even play the game, e.g. oxygen metres which force you to take 10minutes just to walk from your ship to an NPC when it can be done in 30seconds if you could sprint the whole way. Instead you're forced to roleplay walking the same route you've already done for 500 fetch quests
- Ship building is absolutely brainless, the designers think that when games with intricate build systems exist like minecraft, garrysmod and space engineers, that sticking pre-built blobs of ship together is fun?


Bethesda should've just bought Space Engineers and hired the writers from the first seasons of Interstellar. What they made reeks of ego and laziness.

Matchmaking West EU lobbies with degenerates from the third world who can't play without aimbots and roll their R's

I guess running around shooting ♥♥♥♥ was fun for a while but it's just a Battlefield 2 sized map with enemy spawns, loot and some fetch quests. None of the enemies were challenging, and the map is pretty boring. The NPCs don't do anything they just stand there like a 90s game.

Tl;dr - Squire, clean this

Awful VR experience, just another Unreal Asset Store copy and paste waste of time

* Item utilisation requires looking at extreme angles which can cause neck pain
* Some UI aspects and items are in stupid unreachable places like inside your own body or below the floor / play space
* Difficult to pick up or use items for various reasons, there's very little UI feedback that your hands are doing what you intend to
* Crouching doesn't work most of the time

Plus, the art sucks. It looks like a gmod map from 2008.

This is the last time I ever play an indie unreal store copy and paste. Never again.

loot craft n stealth kill unreal store copy n paste
boring af

This game bans people for using cheats! wooo!

IOI made $78 million in 2021 and the bald managers just couldn't pass up an opportunity to scam the money of VR users with this embarrassing release. It really shows how poorly run the company is when VR Chat worlds have better performance than a full professional game release.

Reasons why this was a waste of my evening:

• Graphics is worse than a PS1 game even on Ultra settings, a significant downgrade from desktop mode
  
• The maps aren't adjusted for the VR experience. The world does not feel like a real place. Everything is too small.
  
• Only some items are scripted VR items. Some items are unusable and prevent you from progressing through the level, e.g. the camera and sniper rifle which are not 3D items, and instead are just the same 2D interface as the desktop mode - it is impossible to aim the items. Furthermore, it creates a 2D square which isn't even attached to your face so it's like having a TV in front of you at a wrong angle.
  
• Vaulting over objects creates a disorienting black screen while it moves you, instead of a smooth animation
  
• Holding 2 handed guns is broken and bad, difficult to aim
  
• If you accidentally drop an item it can flick away
  
• Putting an item away is almost impossible and causes neck pain because you have to look directly at your chest and then push the item inside of it
  
• The menus are difficult to use, aren't VR menus, and are placed at strange viewing angles
  
• The play area isn't marked so it's dangerous to play as you can hit stuff around you
  
• Throwing objects only works 25% of the time
  
• Hitting enemies with objects only works 25% of the time
  
• Dragging bodies only works 25% of the time
  
• The cutscenes are just a TV placed in front of you at an odd angle

I bought this out of boredom knowing it had bad reviews, and despite having low expectations I am genuinely shocked and disappointed. Everyone who worked on this, from programmer to manager to CEO should stop making games and do something useful for society instead of scamming people with terrible games.
