This is one of my all time favorite games. I don't know how to accurately describe why, but something about the whole game is so satisfying. Earning points to make your ship bigger or unlock new parts is interesting enough that it doesn't feel like a grind. The new parts make me excited to try them out and see what they do. The separate factions are all unique, which isn't common in games. I feel like most games just make other factions kinda re-skins with slight variation, but in this game all the factions have different parts, and those parts usually come in different shapes meaning you literally can't build the same ships of other factions. The weapons have different strengths so if you prefer one play style like long range combat, through experimentation you'll find that it just doesn't work for everyone, and you have to explore your options. The only issue I've ever had is not being able to go through the worm holes, but I haven't tried it in a while so hopefully it works for me now! Can't recommend this game enough!
