      Honestly, people complain about the ship controls but it’s not bad at all. Play around with it for 10 minutes and you’ll be zipping around in no time.

        I heard a games podcast, where one of the hosts played the game with kbm. He really struggled, especially in DB, because the thrust has no step-ups. By that time it was an annoying flaw with the game and there was only a mod to fix that, which was, by itself, broken.

        Played the game on a PS4 a while ago and loved everything about it.

          No way worked for me. First I tried kbm. Then I bought an Xbox pad specifically for this game. It got better but was still too annoying.

            I am sorry to hear that, because for me, the game was a really special experience.

            Yes, the ship controls needed a bit getting used to it, but when you get the hang of it, it’s really easy to navigate. And I loved it, that they tried to immitate real sky mechanics and didn’t make the ship behave like a boat or racing car.

            But as far as I heard, you are not alone with the struggle.

      I started the game at least 4 times before uninstalling. No point starting again. I just read the plot summary.

        I get you. I played for about 4 hours before giving up. It was kind of boring and I heavily strongly disliked the mechanics. The story didn’t get me at all at that point. Maybe one day when the universe thinks it’s my time.

        I haven’t been spoiled yet, though.
