    Never heard of it. Watched some YouTube video's, and i gave it a try:

    Men..this game is so addictive. The whole exploring stuff is stunning. Are u into sci fi, then this game is a must buy.

    Reminder that this game has a steep learning curve.

    The best, most realistic space simulation i have ever played. Absolute freedom, huge galaxy, big variety of missions, realistic challenge and not just a pewpew space shooter, pvp and pve multiplayer. This game has it all. So far i haven't encounter any bugs (the game is already out on pc and xbox a long time now so it would be weird if it had bugs) and it runs smoothly on ps4 and ps4 proThe best, most realistic space simulation i have ever played. Absolute freedom, huge galaxy, big variety of missions, realistic challenge and not just a pewpew space shooter, pvp and pve multiplayer. This game has it all. So far i haven't encounter any bugs (the game is already out on pc and xbox a long time now so it would be weird if it had bugs) and it runs smoothly on ps4 and ps4 pro alike. Only negative thing is the online only solo game cause i would like to be able to play solo at least offline. This is the space game I've been waiting for all my life. No Man's Sky was great but it was a survival game is space not a simulation. I'll be playing this for years to come. Hopefully they won't ever put down the servers or at least make the solo offline sometime in the future. Space sim lovers have to play this and everybody else who don't afraid of a challenge you should try it. Top notch! Expand

    if you like space simulation this is the one, its better than no man's sky.
    The atmosphere its very well done, it feels like you are there...in space, and as you know...in space no one can hear you scream ;)

    its a nice game i have 10h of gameplay and iam loving it.
    Buy the legendary edition because you can land in planets with that version.

    1986 just returned with great graphics and sound. It's more complex than the original, and many casual players will get lost in the flimsy efforts to help you get comfortable.

    But overcome this, and you'll taste why so many people find this game to be, well, Elite.

    I'm sure this game has loads of content & potential however the learning curve on this beast is so steep it's practically vertical.

    The tutorial missions offer a basic overview of controls, however there are no real pointers when you get into the actual game. This game could have done with a few tutorial contracts to help new players on there way. I have seen many people state

    I have seen many people state that it's best to watch Youtube guides on how to play the game but they are all at least 40 minutes to an hour long and often in several parts!

    I want to learn how to play the game whilst i'm actually playing it, not close the game down & stare at youtube for several hours before I even remotely know what to do.

    A lot of players have commended this game on not holding your hand but I don't think the answer is to let go of your hand, run away and turn off the light switch!

    ++(UPDATE)++

    After finally figuring out how to play this game I must say I am impressed with the immersion and scale of the universe so I have decided to change my score from a 5 to a 8.
    A large jump I know but despite the frustrating opening hours I have grown to enjoy the game.

    I still maintain however that it needs to be more accessible to new players by guiding you through the first few confusing hours of what to actually do.
    In short Iv'e decided this game is worth it but you will have to sit through some boring long winded tutorial videos before you even think about sitting in that cockpit.

    got bored after 2 hours, hated the controls after 1 minute.. people are funny, they hype this and say it's so much better then NMS, however I played NMS for 60 hours and had a blast.. this game here has not even 1/10 of the gameplay, its basically just traveling from space station to space station, the planets are empty and everything looks the same.. **** it plays like a flight sim, ifgot bored after 2 hours, hated the controls after 1 minute.. people are funny, they hype this and say it's so much better then NMS, however I played NMS for 60 hours and had a blast.. this game here has not even 1/10 of the gameplay, its basically just traveling from space station to space station, the planets are empty and everything looks the same.. **** it plays like a flight sim, if you like that, go for it, be the human autopilot

    well this was my Initial response but after playing a week I'm totally sucked into the game, what I first thought was boring and frustrating now is relaxing and fun, the chills you get from the game can not be described early on you definitely need to spend some time with it..
