I'm kinda iffy about getting Space Engineers. Like, I want it, but at the same time I feel like I'd get tired of it in less than 10 hours.
was there a question in there somewhere? I'm certainly not going to recommend the game in its current state.
Why is that? General bugginess?
the game in its current state is a buggy mess that causes your shit to randomly explode, there are no goals and no content. Even Minecraft has more gameplay. Right now SE is basically a box of legos which is fun for a while but building ship after ship eventually gets old when you realize there is no reason to build them and nothing to do with them once built.
It's still in early access, which means that there is still more that the developer(s) need(s) to add to the game, polish, etc. I'm sure that it will greatly improve in time.
Well... There's a ton of known issues that have been around for over a year that have gone unfixed. Updates (supposedly) break more than they fix.
That said, I do have more hours on Space Engineers than any other game, still play it, and do not regret purchasing it at all(that it was on sale is a plus
). I also do not see a great many of the issues that others report. Also note half that the Steam community for this game seems pretty toxic. I've seen one guy starting petitions to force Keen to give him a refund solely because he found an easter egg and felt that was such a broken promise(KSH said they wouldn't do anything "decorative") that he felt cheated.
