I'll start by saying I haven't played this, I just watched reviews online. But I see everybody agreeing in that the exploration is not actual exploration but a lot of clicking menus. And when someone complains about it, there's always a bunch of people defending it because "it's a bethesda game" or "the game is what it is and not what you expected it to be". I don't get this.

The game was overhyped, and the specific part about space exploration is (so far) a lie. Period.

I'd I wanted to click through menus is okay elder scrolls arena. I had no faith when the game was announced so I'm not to surprised.
