    It was slightly innovative to have buildable starships, wasnt it? Probably enough that the average steam voter went 🤯.

      You think it’s the first game with buildable starships? That’s been a whole GENRE of games for like 15 years now.

        More than 20. Eve came out in 2003.

        Yeah, but how many of them are good?

        Like kerbal space program is AWESOME.

        Space Engineers was… blocky.

          Space engineers is no more blocky than Starfield.

          Best starship builder ever, imho! But not much to do but mine and build, if one doesnt play multiplayer. Got tired of it eventually.

            There’s plenty to do if you install mods, particularly Modular Encounters Systems. Also, check out Splitsie’s Survival Impossible -series if you need more inspiration :)

              Cool! Stuff like that wasn’t around when I played it last.

          Starbase is pretty good but it needs more development in the “game” parts. As a spaceship making sim its pretty dam good

      Slightly. It was basically “modular base with wings!” It was nice, but even that got complaints about how tedious it was to build ships, IIRC.

      Should’ve added the /s at the end, my dude. Sarcasm detectors don’t work on Internet text.

      Also, after reading your comment I immediately thought of the gummy block ships from Kingdom Hearts and lol’d at myself.

        Yeah. But the part about average steam voter being easily impressed wasnt sarcasm.
