It’s not REALLY bad, it’s a mediocre game. They made promises they knew they couldn’t keep and this explains the bad reviews.
At full price I would say steer clear. If it’s on offer pretty cheap then sure. Just don’t expect much. They have added things like base building but ultimately it’s a “go here, farm resources so you can go there and farm more resources” kind of game.
i'd rate it pretty good as a $5-15 indie game, it has some value as just a relaxing survival grind if you enjoy that. as a $50-60 space exploration game, i say no way
Remember back to all the stuff that the creator said you'd be able to do. Now forget it all because you can't do any of it. Now, if you think you'd like that it's definitely worth it.
