Today i played Starbound. I picked it up for sale a few years ago for pretty cheap. Today i decided to boot it up and mess around in it, wanting something like terarria but not as open.

I have to say though, i forgot how tedious the opening missions are. You have to go mining for these specific crystals and then open a gate. My gate ended up being extremely far away too so my character got his steps in. I still love this game but i forgot how tiring that opening mission is.

When i finally got there i realized that i must have some mods leftover from when i last played with a friend. That was because there were these two robed guys i don't remember in the main game.

After looking at the gate i went on the hunt for the gems as i had only collected one at that point. That's when i stumbled on the House in the main screenshot and decided to rest there. I didn't want to be out at night because there were these annoying blue guys that kept running at me that i'm pretty sure were added by a mod.

Along the way i stumbled across this castle thing. These things spawn in the base game and i love renovating them into a base. If i ever end up picking this save up again i for sure want too turn it into a home:

I ended up getting caught outside after this, and i don't know if its a mod or the game is just difficult for me (i'm also playing with controller so that probably doesn't help) but the enemies kept wiping the floor with me and i was getting tired of searching for those crystals. So i ended up setting it down for the night.
