I've tried playing this game a few times because I love both roguelikes and space. But I'm always instantly at a loss as to what I am supposed to be doing, because there is so much choice. I start on the space station and there are so many things I could choose to buy. Then there are characters I can speak to, which I'm guessing might help me to get quests. Then when I launch and explore space I come across various star systems so I start scanning etc, but I don't know if I am better off landing here or there, especially when there's oxygen and atmosphere to consider etc. So it's always a bit overwhelming and I usually end up giving up, but I'd really like to get into this game and enjoy it as much as other people seem to.
So can anyone give me any general tips as to what I need to be doing in order to get up and running and really get into the game?
