I actually really like the game. I enjoy being a lone space explorer, it doesn't really bother me that there is no multiplayer. It'd be cool if it got added, but it's not what I was looking for when I got it. I tried for the most part to stay off the hype train and not follow what Sean Murray said too closely. I do think it has bugs and that some things could be fixed/patched, but overall I think it's enjoyable.
That being said, I also really like this short video:
