I decided to start a new save and forgo the new expedition feature in the Anomaly. I feel like part of the fun is starting from scratch and finding shortcuts to get units, complete milestones, etc. Plus I often play my expedition saves even after the expedition is over.
I made it to Phase 3 before I quit playing today. Overall I like the expedition. Nothing has been particularly annoying but I guess that could change in the next phases.
How’s it going for everyone else?
Moderately frustrating but for me it’s part-and-parcel to the early game of NMS. I’m not that fond of the early game but the extrinsic rewards of some of the expeditions are too good to ignore. I look forward to bringing the staff and ship to my main save and hunting a pirate capital ship.
