Comment on Thoughts on Space Games, Part 1: Top-5 AAA Games
rozwud@beehaw.org 2 weeks ago
I got into gaming late and don’t have a ton of time to play, so I’m not a super experienced gamer. I LOVE No Man’s Sky. Any thoughts on which of these I would enjoy most if I feel like branching out?

I think that depends on what you love about NMS.
If you’re a fan of the procgen exploration, Avorion, Starbound, or Elite:Dangerous
If you’re a fan of the multiplayer interaction, Eve Online or Star Citizen.
If you’re a fan of the base-building, Space Engineers or X4.
If you’re a fan of the Alien interactions, that’s very tough, but probably X4 or Star Control 2/ The Ur Quan Masters. xD
There aren’t a lot of other single games that have as many systems as NMS does.
I think that I would probably say start with X4 if you want 3D, and Starbound if you don’t mind 2D.

Cool, I’ll definitely look into those when I get a chance. Maybe Starbound to start with. Thanks!
