    What matters is default settings. If you expect people to jump into a game and know that 10 hours down the line they made a bad choice, then it's a bad default. "Just buy stuff" doesn't work when stations don't have what you need - it's fine for a tiny ship, try getting enough uranium for 10 reactors in a reasonable time by buying.

    Some gamers are just looking for a simple out-of-the-box experience, and will immediately turn their noses up at the idea of mods.

    I am not one of those poor souls, but I do know quite a few of them.
