People are being entitled taint-lickers. It does suck that its optimization is poor, but I'm on a 4 year-old PC build and my CPU was not top-end even then, with a 3070 and I have had zero issues running it. The space travel should be more interesting, they really fucked up by making space piracy basically impossible, so you can't ever profit by taking the ships of people who actively try to murder you. There's a lot that could be more engaging, but also the reviews of Elex are mostly positive and it's one of the worst, most quest-bugged half finished pieces of shit I've ever played, with basically nothing going for it beside decent art and a unique story. The game is trash and I wasted way too much time on it. Starfield is vastly better. Not amazing, but solidly OK. Without the social-media circle-jerk, there is no way the reviews would continue to get worse as they continue to address performance issues and fix bugs.

You sound like a lot of fun to be around.
