I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it’s a bad game. Don’t do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you’ll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent’s cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

    Elite: Dangerous.

    Hell of a good space trucker sim. If you like spending 2 hours managing your ship before making a 6 system jump only to dock and do it all over again.

        Same here. I got a Oculus DK2 VR headset solely for Elite Dangerous. Have since moved on from Elite but haven’t lost the enjoyment for VR games.

          I haven’t lost the enjoyment just the software to make it happen on pc since I stopped using windows lol. Looking forward to whatever valve’s got coming next though, I’m sure it’ll be a fine upgrade to my Quest 2

        You mean fuel scoop. Nothing worse than making jumps with a full tank only to get to your destination and realize you forgot to equip a fuel scoop. Better hope they have a fuel scoop you can afford that also doesn’t take forever to refuel!

      I second this. I really love the aesthetics and design direction - especially the sound - but the gameplay just falls flat after a few dozen hours. Doing anything cool requires copious amounts of grinding, and the story has been dead in the water for years.

      It’s a real shame that Frontier botched it so badly.

        It says a lot about a game when in the end the early access period was more fun than the game 2 years after release. Definitely one of the biggest disappointments of my gaming career after the sheer bliss of it actually happening and the initial game being so fun.

        I think they painted themselves into a corner with the code and everything just ended up being a giant slog that could never deliver the initial promise.

      But the ship management is very basic and less complicated than what you’d find on ETS2 for example.
