    The game is what you make of it. I just did some international travel and put 16 hours in during off times using my steam deck. Aside from one game close and some graphic particles on the gun being weird until weapon swap, played like a charm.

    I just pushed into the main quest line after ignoring it for 13 hours because I found fun shit to do that kept me busy. I’m having a blast and am looking forward to playing some more.

    If rando quests and exploration are your thing you may really enjoy this game. The story isn’t super engaging yet but I’m not far as noted. Ready to do some more exploration after some jet lag wears off haha.

    I actually bought No man’s sky this week for the first time and started playing in VR because of all this starfield hype/drama. I wanted to play it for a while, but this and the fact that it was on sale on gog pushed me over the edge. It’s fun in VR so far and I have no regrets.

      I bought it once when it was on sale but only played it for a bit. Yesterday i saw that it has vr support? How is the vr? Usually i get a bit sick in vr games so i haven’t touched them in a few years.

        The VR is not perfect, I’ll be honest. Apparently this game used to have better performance in the past, but with the updates over time more and more people have had issues. It’s having some frame drops on my AMD 3600x and RTX3070Ti, but I’m looking into configurations and possible hardware upgrades, because I’m intrigued enough to want to keep going.

        I heard people found the first part of the game a bit boring but for me VR hasn’t lost its magic yet so even though I understand where the feeling could come from, I wasn’t bored at all. There’s a bit of a learning curve with the controls. You can have teleportation based movement if you prefer and are having trouble with feeling sick.

        I’d say if you have the PC to run it, the game already in your library and the headset ready to go, why not try it. Worst case you decide it’s not for you and move on.
