Just so I can build spaceships.

It's just sooooo addictive and fun. But as long as there is no Sandbox mode, or a mode to save spaceship designs, I just can't do it without using piles of money.

It's not that I'm short of money (had like 700k when I started building like crazy), but wasting all that money just for a few ships I like, fly once or twice for fun, and then completely scrap and rebuild into new ones is just not feasible.

So, while I'm sad that I disabled achievements (and am too lazy to use ScriptExtender + AchievementUnlocker), I can now properly play "Space Lego".

That's all and thank you for coming to my TED talk.

After my trials in Oblivion I realized that cheating almost always sucks the fun out of the game - unless through mods that enhance gameplay. As much as I hate to say it, most of the fun in Bethesda games is the.. G.. Grind. Almost every second I'm not shooting or looting I want to be and I hate that's all it takes for my dopamine to go off.

Hoping the next game has better perks than "10% more damage with x" but I digress. Hope you have fun in your sandbox but be careful not to overdo it.

@RealFknNito I can appreciate how the game is designed to be addictive: it’s several different games in one really. But that’s dependent on people getting vested in the game, and they seem to have found a way to make that work and make it relatively seamless.

@Piecemakers3Dprints There’s a whole Vest faction. You haven’t run across the Store Greeters yet?
