Great game, I do recommend getting a mod to shut up the in-game characters though. They are superfluous and unskippable, and they are full of inane dialogue that doesn't lead to anything. Lou in particular has that frustrating "forever cheery in the wrong setting" voice, which kills immersion.
I find this game to be somewhat meditative. I enjoy the process of breaking down the ships, and the build to better tools, and bigger, more complicated ships. As others (many others) have mentioned, the storyline gets old quick and is not skippable. If going for additional playthroughs, it is annoying. However, the overall game is solid and worth your time! On the longer cut scenes, I just go get a beer or something. Cheers!
I've got almost 200 hours on this game. I enjoyed it a quite a bit. As another reviewer said, it IS annoying that the cutscenes are unskippable, which definitely puts a dampener on subsequent playthroughs. With that said, however, I find the gameplay enjoyable enough that it's not a deal breaker for me. I only wish they had a greater variety of ships to tear down. I got a lot of mileage out of what they have, but it did eventually just get old. For most games, I have little interest in DLC, but this is a game where I would love a DLC that adds in like 5-10 new ship types.
