I can’t say I’m part of the average, with only roughly 13 hours of game time, however my experiences with the game have been enjoyable. Whether it’s bounty hunting with friends or quietly flying around the universe to fulfill requests, the experience has been breath-taking and it’s one of the few titles that have made me really want to give it a go with VR.
