I tried, I really did. But a few hours in, I just didn't like the gameplay even though I thought I would've loved it and the other new games I had waiting won.

Maybe I should grind through. Is there a point where it suddenly gets good a few hours in? Or is it just not for me, despite everything on the book's cover?

If exploration, discovery, and puzzling out mysteries aren't engaging for you, it might just not be your type of game.

I think it was the puzzles and lack of guidance. Not really knowing if I'm in the right place doing the right thing. Maybe I'll try again with a bit of a guide until it hooks in and I get it.

There's an in-game log of hints you've been given in the ship, the "rumor mode" on the terminal can help you stay goal-oriented.
