because gamers are so delusional and thirsty for content that when any game is worked on or brought to a playable level they forget and forgive. welcome to the new generation where unfinished games are the norm
@@georgiadog0077 Oh ok, so they don't remain bitter and locked in the past, capable of enjoying new content? Sounds like a much happier existence. I think I'll keep enjoying the free updates and see what it ends up becoming before I call it unfinished. Hopefully you can find a finished game outside the norm that makes you happy too.
@@georgiadog0077 Gamers are indeed delusional and thirsty for content. That's what let publishers releasing games as early as possible with as much hype and as many pre-sales as possible. This results impossible deadlines for developers and unfinished games forced onto the market, because - you know - the executives want to maximize their yearly bonus. So next time when a release is delayed don't start whinning, don't let publisher's marketing push you into a hype wortex and don't buy any game before release. And if the developers fixes bugs or any mistakes after release at least try to handle it with less toxicity.
This HAS to be one of the greatest comeback stories in gaming history. Because this game, at FIRST, was NOT what they promised us at ALL. But - that cannot be said in 2023. This game is SICK now and is everything I'd imagined it would be 7 years ago.
Actually, the game lore is fascinating and deep. Like any good and ancient mystery, you have to explore and build on it, putting intriguing clues together. It doesn’t lead you by the nose. After getting started you can choose your goals and styles when and as you want. It’s incredible and ever evolving. Hello Games has continued to put out updates and enhancements FOR FREE since its original launch. The VR play is amazing. It’s clear to me that you are not a long time player, especially of more recent updates, so you have a lot to enjoy discovering. The NMS player community is vast, active, creative, helpful, and a major asset of the game.
I play it mostly FOR the lore. The lore is one of the most under appreciated aspects of the game and it was just built upon even more with the new Interceptor update.
@@thecodenamenoob4042 : there have been many, many additions and changes you will want to know about. I recommend visiting the Hello Games web site and watching the brief trailers that came out with each update. That way you will have an idea of some of it. You have to watch all of them to see some of the smaller pieces, like the pets, frigate claiming and building, and the cooking, that are not obvious and not mentioned often. There are also the patch notes, which will take longer to go through if you read all of them. Several players have very helpful UA-cam channels with tips and walkthroughs. Survival Bob has just started a new walkthrough of the Interceptor update with 30 minute episodes. I also recommend Xxiou Gaming, Xaine’s World, Captain Steve, Jason Plays, Beeblebum, Moose Gaming and others.
Got this on a steam sale recently and I've been playing it on my quest 2 in VR. First time I blasted off from my starting planet and went into hyperspace was a real WOW moment.
I played this game about a year and half ago and ended up getting the big cruiser ship and building an underwater base on a very volatile planet that kept me safe while I mined valuable resources between storms this game is underrated in its current state
One thing I will say is that combat can be quite fun with the mech exocraft to just go onto an agressive sentinel planet, get wanted level 4-5, and initiate mech-vs-mech combat. Very fun.
@@asgerthewritten4850 ah that looks like they haven't solved the incentive part of PvP combat. Many games technically have pvp but nobody bothers cause rewards dont exist or suck.
@@635574 exactly, I believe that is one of no man's sky's larger issues, but since it isn't a pvp-based game they don't bother. A larger issue I think no man's sky makes is ignoring the smaller details of the game that make it more immersive, such as clunky hitboxes and the destruction of objects such as larger pieces of space rubble and resource deposits, and making one large thing, such as a tree all act as if one area of contact effects the entire thing ( and nothing around it), which all contributes to a lack of a sense of realism within the game.
i've actually started playing it again and saw my save file from 2017. i dropped it immediately after 3h of playing--and since picking it up two weeks ago, i already have 30h+ in it. it's a completely different game from what i remember playing, absolutely amazing
Although it is rare, I've come across other players randomly while just casually exploring a couple times. Coming across a galaxy someone else previously discovered already is pretty neat too.
@@overbeb Ambient encounters with other explorers are now represented with full character models, allowing players to see each other’s character and ship customisations. Surviving, building, and exploring together is richer and more immediate than ever. Use the Voice & Networking interface to group up with any explorers you encounter. PC players can use an expanded chat interface to control group options and manage communications. Straight from the "Beyond" patch notes. You can encounter people in the regular universe. And you can group up with them at that point if you do.
It's definitely worth getting... the game is AMAZING. It's basically what most space sim fans want in a game: - Warp, Fly, Land, Walk, Drive, Creature Ride, Swim on any planet, throughout countless solar systems... explore everywhere in 3rd or 1st person - Find scorching planets with volcanos, toxic infestations & rain, freezing tornado blizzards, and tropical paradises with stunning night sky or with lightning. Even has meteor strikes! - Dive in caves and find mysterious objects or dig your own den to avoid the dangers outside. - Meet aliens, discover their culture, learn their history & language, help them with missions. Discuss opportunities or places to discover. - Discover strange monsters including sandworms & dinosaurs, black market traders and crashed derelicts as you travel across an infinite space. Capture the monsters and use them as pets to help you on your journey. - Build bases anywhere with multiple floors for anything you want. Teleport to them with ease and store resources as you explore the galaxy - Setup the electronics in each base with lights, switches and proximity sensors. Party it up with your new light and sound show or setup electronics to open automatically like your own space show - Cook meals for you and your guests with crafted meal receipes from animals you herded yourself. Enjoy the bonus from eating various ingredient combinations - Trade throughout the universe; buy stock items and warp between Space stations, Airports and minor settlements to make money - Or become a fighter and hunt traders, other pirates, or the law. Use an emergency jump and get the hell outta there - Get an Aircraft Carrier to store your Fighters, Haulers and Exploration vessels. Customize the floating base with your own personal rooms and equipment. Trade with aliens that land in your new Mother Ship, or buy their ships out completely - Build up your fleet of Cruisers to protect you and the Carrier. Send them out to various missions and reap the rewards or suffer the damage from mistakes - Land directly on the Cruisers of your fleet and gather their profits or explore their engine room to repair the damage - Upgrade your Carrier, ships, vehicles, guns & backpack with better shields, weapons, and storage space. - Join multiplayer in all of the above and blow your mind.
small thing. you actually can randomly run into players now apparently. it was added as a part of one of the updates, forgot which. but it basically connects two (or more) players who happen to be in the same system to a local network and they're able to play together. pretty neat. it's never happened to me but i've heard of it happening to some people.
@@juusukun DLC and Expansions are things of the past! Its all about the in-store purchases now. Loot boxes. Are you not happy with this game getting updates, and things added for free?
It's, by far, the most creative fantasy-end of the space sim experience. However, it's also one of the most casual. This is also a good thing but certainly will make older, more veteran players wanting more. Even the fairly high tuned mods can't fill the void (litterally and laterally speaking heh). If Star Citizen is the most core feature space sim, then NMS is the exact other end; content rich. When you start to miss one, remember this!
I think that they can put in the game some realistic aspects, but without descharacterizing the fantasy-end and casual-like of the game, only to make a contrast of game tone. Or even better, make this realistic points adjustable as the Customized mode that exists in the game.
The thing is: the game is missing a combat system. If the game had a combat system, or even better, some kind of PvP, the void would be filled. Because without a threat, what's the point of base building, grinding and stuff?
Just started playing and I am glad I waited to buy it, it is very well polished at this point. I have been deleting the shader folder in the in game fairly often to prevent crashing though. Not sure what that is about but as long as I delete it before I play I don't get a crash. Still, loving it so far and I am barely a week into it.
I've been wanting to pick it up solely for VR. I watched a friend play it a few back (vanilla game) and he was zapping rocks and a rock grew legs, walked up the cavern wall and ran away lol He hasn't played it much either so we were both surprised.
There is a story, but mostly told through the expeditions. It’s actually pretty interesting. Singularity has added a lot of potential for future lore in the game and I’m actually really excited for the future expeditions lore wise. I’m a bit biased because I got the game during the looper expedition but that one was my personal favorite. The resetting when dying really made me get good at the game on survival quickly. Singularity was pretty awesome if you ignore the technical issues. The whole spreading corruption thing will definitely be expanded upon in the future.
When those first trailers hit like a decade ago and the hype was unprecendented, I thought yeah no way this will ever work. The launch seemed to prove me correct. But somehow at the end of the day they made it work... They completely redeemed themselves, made the game they promised and actually expanded on it massively for free. It's quite impressive now.
I really miss my Playstation just for playing No Man's Sky. What a fame... to see how it has changed over the years... my goodness. Might wanna get me a ps4 again just to jam.
No mans sky is on sale on the PS store right now for half price ($29.99 instead of $59.99 for the PS5 and PSVR2 versions) and yes you get both for the same price, and can freely switch back and forth between versions at will
The best money I've spent on gaming since buying my Xbox. It's a lesson for all those mediocre developers out there. We'll pay for a game, but we don't accept paid dlc, battle passes, or p2w being "normalized".
I'm gonna buy this game soon, No Man's sky seems to be what Spore wanted to be with the interplanetary mode but better, very much looking forward to play this game
Would fill completly the weakness of game, that is combat. Outlaws was the first update in this direction. The last one was other. I hope that you ara speaking will be the content of the next one.
@@BigDaddyWes There's not a single space game out there that decently incorporates both space and ground combat missions. Elite Dangerous failed and Star Citizen may never be finished.
I do wish they would add more combat. Like pirate bases. Pirates or maybe some type of galactic military will be on different planets and have bases etc. Maybe they are there scavenging for resources or they may be the military could be fighting pirates also. Or sometimes even doing deals with the pirates. Add some corruption to the mix.
An amazing ggame, and one fo the few i have permanently installed...you will always find something to do even after thousands of hours (my normal play save has over 800hours, and about other 400 between expeditions and permadeath) and the last update was insane...and all for free
I have a question, does the game feel repetitive? Minecraft, for example, bored me after some hours even though it was exciting for me at first. Is this game more interesting than Minecraft?
@@Carolina-ql1kn like most games, but tbh the amount of content is a lot, at this point I've done almost all the content and come back for expeditions/updates. At some point it does get repetitive, but there's something very relaxing once you get to the end game, there are days where I just go and play just for sightseeing and relax
got it on launch, was obviously extremely dissapointed however, given the concept of the game, we all knew deep down that it just wasnt gonna be what we had hoped for ON DROP but the potential was always there and the developers were ALWAYS honest and transparent. To see where this game is now 7 years after i got it almost makes me tear up. ESPECIALLY considering the landscape of the gaming industry today and the incomplete flops that release every single month now. For these developers to trust in the process, trust in the fans, and trust in themselves speaks absolute volumes to their commitment to make this game a masterpiece. Because of this, i will always support this game and the team that created it. Every studio should take note that when you release a flop, be honest, transparent, and do you best to fix it.
Many gamers have been disappointed, but No Man's Sky was never a flop. Hello Games is a small team, and they sold a massive amount of copies at launch, so they really have the financial freedom to offer free updates for years to come. This is my number 2 game, after The Secret of Monkey Island and before Civilization.
@@pascalalexisparvex a game selling a lot doesnt have anything to do with a game being a flop in regards to the player retention because a game sold is a game sold. Cyberpunk was a flop and sold millions. BF2042 flop but sold millions... You are looking at it from a business perspective so you are correct, they didnt flop financially. But we dont run those companies so why would we care? They flopped in regard to our expectations and they all flopped HARD in that regard.
The awesome thing with the new Echoes Update that came out in August 2023 is that you can become a well-known space pirate by f***ing destroying civilian frieghters and you can get away with it by eventually getting far enough away from Sentinel Interceptors that they lost track of you. Yes, I have done it multiple times and the Vykeens are my enemies... that's totally fine cause you can eventually get the reputation back in multiple ways... and I am a freaking Gek. That's the beauty with this game, you can do WHATEVER YOU WANT!? Put yourself in the shoes of that traveler.
Hey man, bit of a random one here: would you be interested in providing gameplay clips for a NMS video on the channel? (Paid of course!) Just looking back through old comments to find people who clearly know the game well! If you're interested, please add and DM me on Discord. Username: averagegamereviews
@@AverageGameReviews Hey. Thanks for the offer, but I don't play the game as frequent to really know the game well and its community. I play a lot of games casually. I will think about it when I play the game more frequent and actually invest some time into it. At the moment at the time of this reply, I have been playing and investing time into Fortnite (due to the new LEGO Fortnite), Minecraft and Just Dance (I REALLY love Just Dance as a whole). The other game I have previously invested a lot of time into is Forza Horizon 5, but at the moment I am taking a break from it due to video game burnout for that particular video game. I played that game so frequently on a weekly basis that it got boring for me after a while. Again, thanks for the offer... but I am not much help at the moment for No Man's Sky.
Thank you for this, i played this game back when it released as i was clueless on the early reviews and poor quality on release. There was no tutorial and was thoroughly confused on how to start. Maybe I could get back into it and bring one of my friends along
Woah I gotta get a freighter! I’ve done most everything else but never had enough money for one. Hardcore mode is a challenge! Fun, but I have a save game where I’m basically stuck on a poorly resourced planet and get shot down by hostiles if I manage to fix my ship and take off! 🚀
yeah, I'll take a look when they add 50+ bosses. Tried this a few times and I just feel no incentive at all to do this busywork stuff without any goal.
Bosses would be incredible to makr the fauna more hazardous, and more types of harmful plantes would be incredible too. Is a space sim, so... Almost every planet is friendly is not much realistic, even in the fiction.
Star citizen is going to over take them soon, the only thing they could implement before SC would be planetary destruction. Soft armor is coming to Star citizen soon
I just think it's truly one of the best stories in gaming history how this game went from legit dud and hated pariah to excellent game that has become beloved. I don't remember such an extreme turnaround ever. The fact that they pulled it off and continued to work so hard on making it right, adding features, improving polish, etc.; it ingratiates them to fans and really creates good will for the company and the game. Hats off to Hello games, who was legitimately hated with passion at one time and is now saluted and appreciated. It was no easy feat to pull off this 180, but they did it and it's impressive
I bought a used ps4 copy last month to have something else for my psvr2. Vr or flat, this game is slowly working its way into becoming my favorite game. Never played beforehand.
love this video but i want to point out one thing the game is really enjoyable its one of my favorite space games but the planets get repetitive they just change colors and that's it there is no reason for me to explore other planets game should give me the reason to do so for example in astroneer you have to go to other planets in order to gather certain resources and all of the planets are different. if you want iron you have to go to another planet if you want clay its on every single planet i mean you get the idea. its just gets boring after some time(this is ONLY problem i have with no mans sky if they resolve it than this game will become 10/10 for me)
I don’t agree you said after awhile when 50 hours in? Not every planet is the same they have different looks, some are all water, some are cavs, some are getting hit with asteroids, some are full of hazards and you can’t stay on long, some are overridden with creatures, and some have hostile sentinels that constantly attack. The only time you start to see the repetitiveness is after like 15 planets or so and sometimes some planets have so many resources and things on them one of the perfect planets you can stay on that planet for like a whole 15 hours. The only way you’ll find the repetitiveness in the planets really fast is if you’re looking for it by just going from planet to planet and system to system really fast and not even actually adventuring each planet and actually stepping foot on them only just flying through.
@@andrebillups4079 i mean i get what you are trying to say and i do agree that this game is beautiful with its procedural generation but keep in mind that i am playing this for 1 reason to explore ye its really good that all planets are some what different but once you find 1 good planet then exploring different planets is just waste of time cuz every single planet has same resources so basically its pointless to switch planets. every planet has to have something that only that planet has and then going to different planets will have meaning. dont get me wrong i am not hating on this game in fact its one of my favorites i enjoy playing but i am not the only one pointing at this problem. so long story short i want developers to make sure that each planet has its role.
@@strange1702 but I’ve planets have different resources, water planets, volcanic planets, and there’s a few other types that have RARE elements on them. The common elements to survive are the only things on EVERY planet which is Iron, Carbon, and the plant things that give oxygen. So you have to travel to different elemental hazard threat planets to get certain RARE RESOURCES that aren’t on every single planet. Also I don’t play the game to mine the elements so idc just saying your comment isn’t accurate. I turned off the element collecting part of the game lol.
My biggest issues with the game are that there is not really any purpose. Like, you're given this HUGE galaxy to explore, and the only thing to guide you when you start is an abysmal tutorial and confusing menus. I've tried to get into this game a few times now, when new content is released, and just cannot play for long because it's so daunting with how much stuff there is, and how little the game tells you about anything and that there's just no pointers at all.
I've been playing this now this week for 10 hours and it's amazing! Feels a lot like a mix between mass effect and destiny. I am curious anout starfield too.
Literally just got back into the game this week and binged it with over 40 hours smacked into my new world and already having 40 in my previous. In that time I completed the main story thread found a S tier Freighter with a decent fleet and half power squad, an exotic ship very luckily, and have a decent base set up at a trade post. I’d say you’re wrong about the story aspect as the main story “if you actually read it” is quite immersive and sorta philosophical and a little meta but gives you a good chunk of gameplay. That being said I literally forgot about the main story until I had my base, freighter, exocrafts, etc. but I blitzed through it in about 20 hours so yeah not significant but still note worthy
It needs real guns and planets loaded with hostile creatures it's too passive of a game. Also PVP and base raiding would be amazing. Flying through space with friends, finding a planet with bases, landing and setting up a FOB then foundational wipe people. Would be super top notch
I'd like planets with weather so hostile you need to be in a vehicle to survive it for more than 10 seconds & planets where everything is trying to kill you.
I heard “creative mode” and immediately added it to my list because I’m a lazy cow so crafting is too much effort for me but I love building and creating even in games like subnautica where there’s only limited stuff
Cheers man! Yes, the whole thing is scripted - I would have no chance at it flowing well without doing that. Although I do know some people who can manage as good a job unscripted....The script is a big part of making it smooth - gotta watch your sentence lengths.
i wonder how many times theres been a situation where two players were in neighboring systems or maybe even seperate planets in the same system and theyd never know lol
Ive compared to this game to Star citizen quite often, the only difference is that SC has mechanics like salvaging and a much more "realisitic" approach to all things gameplay wise. Outside of that, NMS has much more to offer (even if it isnt an MMO) and has progressed further than SC has in years within a short period of time and is still getting better. So deff much more fun, arcadey and vibrant with Cross play too so you and your mate on Xbox can enjoy it together, instead of needing a monster PC to even begin playing it
Once you play with VR you cannot go back to 2d. I bought PSVR 2 just so I can play game in VR. First I played with PSVR but it was severely limited due to ps4 so I took brake until I got ps5 and psvr2.
As soon as you figure out the ship trick then you become the richest person a live and then learn about advanced space stations being the go to landing spot makes this game take no time to master. needs way more content for playability than just mining because eventually you get to where mining is effortless.
Even with starfields release i am still playing this game. The echoes update was bananas. This is still my favorite game to date on both pc and switch (yes i double dipped). The devs have continued to show the kind of love you would expect from a parent to their favorite child... and not their often-in-the-way and least favorite third child.... sigh.
I find the point about the story lacking, considering NMS has one of the more brain-twisting meta-narratives. And though I agree that the method of conveying such a grand story through text can be seen as counterproductive it is absolutely worth following. For those interested - the main sources for the story and lore are: 1. Main storyline (duh) 2. Expeditions 3. Numerous story-rich side quests 4. Abandoned terminals in infested facilities 5. Boundary Failures which are giant, circular machines found on Glitched/Exotic worlds 6. Remembrance terminals which are accessible after the main story 7. Ancient Monoliths which are found randomly on most planets 8. Giant server towers which tell different stories based on the type of faction that is controlling the system you are visiting If you like motives of existentialism, deus ex machina (literally god in the machine, not some sudden unexpected nor uncalled for plot twists), divine psychology and coping with upcoming apocalypse using hope, I very much suggest following the story.
I bought this a while ago and loved it, but my old PC took about ten minutes to load it. Finally just upgraded and intrigued to load this up again. I’ve been curious about others like Star Citizen, but this obviously is complete, and ticks more boxes for me. Somewhat less risk of piracy, I think, which would probably be ruinous for me with my hand pain and energy keeping me off the PC for three years anyway, once I’ve finally spent time doing something, I probably wouldn’t be very amused.
I have to give no man’s sky their flowers they made cross play possible between all platforms and vr players can play with non vr players like come on what other game is really doing that
So I just got the Xbox game pass for PC games for the first time ever. I've done this so that I can play Starfield on release day and see if I like it or not. Anyways I noticed No man's sky is included with Gamepass so downloading it now. The release was one of the worst but it looks like the developers really cared about fixing that and making the game they promised. I will edit this comment and rate the game out of 10 at the end of the day when I finish playing it.
A few (ok plenty) of corrections of incredibly wrong information on this video: 1. The main quest is delivered by narrative, you talk with 3 or 4 characters (one of which you are looking for) and up to the end that is how it goes. It doesn't have an end because (this is so since day 1 so not a spoiler) if you "end" the game you are just sent to a NEW galaxy) 2. The story is actually interesting because it explains the "plot holes" in the game 3. Crafting is way more basic then minecraft. You just select what you want and "craft", no need to put things in a bench in proper order or what nots. Also, most things can be used raw. 4. You cannot mine the whole ground, only a few metters, and IT IS NOT PERMANENT, it WILL reset back to original after a few hours of playthrough (basically you have a limited amound of edits) 5. Only one material is exclusive to space, and its almost never used (platinum) 6. You don't really need to stock up resources to go out exploring, specially on non extreme planets where the atmosphere will wear you down 7. Not all systems have space stations 8. The so called ingame economy is useless and nobody cares, you will buy/sell without looking what is high/low. Money in NMS literally grows on trees 9. You will never be poor if you know how to play, you will have enough to buy everything the game has to offer 10 times over in 100h play 10. Your first freighter is FREE, and their prices are not high. Also, they are only useful as a space base. 11. You will never need to repair a frigate if you don't send them in literally suicide missions 12. Nobody does the multiplayer missions in groups, everybody solos them, it is even faster that way 13. Space battles are mindnumbing easy and you will often beat 5~10 enemies without even losing your shields 14. Your squadron can only GET IN YOUR WAY, they do no damage, bump into you all the time and stay in front of you, most experienced players don't use them. 15. You will only ever use the mech exosuit (And no, not really that great for battle), or the hovercraft to traverse distances. They are weak and mostly used to travel fast. 16. Every planet is different, but the same. Same minerals, same enemy mechanics, same dangers. So its more a visual gimmick. There are even only 3 different hostile plants. 3! 17. You will still use up dozens if not hundreds of hours just to check if all I said is true =p
Generative IAs would upgrade the NMS world, since NPCs to events in galaxy and solar systems to make this lively. This lacks in the game and is what you say.
I play on relaxing mode and this went to a broken looking game to a pure masterpiece on my PS5 it is a great game to play to save yourself money just get a used ps4 copy only 25$ and upgrade it to the PS5 version for free and you will have an amazing game on your hands. Follow the storyline until you go on the planet ship Onomaly and visit your base then go back up to space and then you will get your pellets plan so you can make them and get pets. Looks like crap on the Nintendo switch get it on thePS5 that’s the best❤
I'm a big fan! Made this video a short while ago and held fire on the upload, so it wasn't included. Hoping to make some more nms videos though, so if will get a mention!
Played this game a few years ago, downloaded it again some months ago, but only spent a couple of days with it. Perhaps the grinding was to much for me. I'll download it again and play the creative version.
Only thing I dislike about this game is the lack of ship types. Even tho there is a lot of them it’s all the same fighter, choper sized thing. In Elite Dangerous you can even pilot massive hauling ships and cruisers that are so large you can fit hangars into them and leave the main ship or send them out with your co-pilots to fight enemy ships.
You can do most things together - exploration, anomaly missions etc. Base building requires the player to place a 'base computer' where they want to build to claim the land as theirs. Therefore 2 people can't both own the same base. You can build bases near to eachother on the same planet though.

So next time when a release is delayed don't start whinning, don't let publisher's marketing push you into a hype wortex and don't buy any game before release.
And if the developers fixes bugs or any mistakes after release at least try to handle it with less toxicity.
This HAS to be one of the greatest comeback stories in gaming history. Because this game, at FIRST, was NOT what they promised us at ALL. But - that cannot be said in 2023. This game is SICK now and is everything I'd imagined it would be 7 years ago.
This shit is soooo addictive 😭
Kim Kardashian had a good comeback story
Actually, the game lore is fascinating and deep. Like any good and ancient mystery, you have to explore and build on it, putting intriguing clues together. It doesn’t lead you by the nose. After getting started you can choose your goals and styles when and as you want. It’s incredible and ever evolving. Hello Games has continued to put out updates and enhancements FOR FREE since its original launch. The VR play is amazing. It’s clear to me that you are not a long time player, especially of more recent updates, so you have a lot to enjoy discovering. The NMS player community is vast, active, creative, helpful, and a major asset of the game.
I’m so happy to hear all of this I went to the midnight release for this game and just recently got back into it havnt played it in years
I play it mostly FOR the lore. The lore is one of the most under appreciated aspects of the game and it was just built upon even more with the new Interceptor update.
@@thecodenamenoob4042 : there have been many, many additions and changes you will want to know about. I recommend visiting the Hello Games web site and watching the brief trailers that came out with each update. That way you will have an idea of some of it. You have to watch all of them to see some of the smaller pieces, like the pets, frigate claiming and building, and the cooking, that are not obvious and not mentioned often. There are also the patch notes, which will take longer to go through if you read all of them. Several players have very helpful UA-cam channels with tips and walkthroughs. Survival Bob has just started a new walkthrough of the Interceptor update with 30 minute episodes. I also recommend Xxiou Gaming, Xaine’s World, Captain Steve, Jason Plays, Beeblebum, Moose Gaming and others.
Good point
How is the co-op?
Got this on a steam sale recently and I've been playing it on my quest 2 in VR. First time I blasted off from my starting planet and went into hyperspace was a real WOW moment.
Hey man I also started playing. Wanna meetup

I played this game about a year and half ago and ended up getting the big cruiser ship and building an underwater base on a very volatile planet that kept me safe while I mined valuable resources between storms this game is underrated in its current state
One thing I will say is that combat can be quite fun with the mech exocraft to just go onto an agressive sentinel planet, get wanted level 4-5, and initiate mech-vs-mech combat. Very fun.
And since 2022 they did quite a lot of updates to combat
@@TheJordan276 It used to be a weak point in the game so it was needed
@Ayoo yeah but it's had to convince someone randomly to
@@asgerthewritten4850 ah that looks like they haven't solved the incentive part of PvP combat. Many games technically have pvp but nobody bothers cause rewards dont exist or suck.
@@635574 exactly, I believe that is one of no man's sky's larger issues, but since it isn't a pvp-based game they don't bother. A larger issue I think no man's sky makes is ignoring the smaller details of the game that make it more immersive, such as clunky hitboxes and the destruction of objects such as larger pieces of space rubble and resource deposits, and making one large thing, such as a tree all act as if one area of contact effects the entire thing ( and nothing around it), which all contributes to a lack of a sense of realism within the game.
i've actually started playing it again and saw my save file from 2017. i dropped it immediately after 3h of playing--and since picking it up two weeks ago, i already have 30h+ in it. it's a completely different game from what i remember playing, absolutely amazing
That really shows how far it's come.
Although it is rare, I've come across other players randomly while just casually exploring a couple times. Coming across a galaxy someone else previously discovered already is pretty neat too.
I read this and yet something tells me that it hasn't become an MMO and you still need to be in an instance to play with someone else
You can’t just run into someone out in the galaxy. You have to join a known player or join up with a player from the anomaly
@@overbeb Ambient encounters with other explorers are now represented with full character models, allowing players to see each other’s character and ship customisations. Surviving, building, and exploring together is richer and more immediate than ever.
Use the Voice & Networking interface to group up with any explorers you encounter.
PC players can use an expanded chat interface to control group options and manage communications.
Straight from the "Beyond" patch notes. You can encounter people in the regular universe. And you can group up with them at that point if you do.
It's definitely worth getting... the game is AMAZING. It's basically what most space sim fans want in a game:
- Warp, Fly, Land, Walk, Drive, Creature Ride, Swim on any planet, throughout countless solar systems... explore everywhere in 3rd or 1st person
- Find scorching planets with volcanos, toxic infestations & rain, freezing tornado blizzards, and tropical paradises with stunning night sky or with lightning. Even has meteor strikes!
- Dive in caves and find mysterious objects or dig your own den to avoid the dangers outside.
- Meet aliens, discover their culture, learn their history & language, help them with missions. Discuss opportunities or places to discover.
- Discover strange monsters including sandworms & dinosaurs, black market traders and crashed derelicts as you travel across an infinite space. Capture the monsters and use them as pets to help you on your journey.
- Build bases anywhere with multiple floors for anything you want. Teleport to them with ease and store resources as you explore the galaxy
- Setup the electronics in each base with lights, switches and proximity sensors. Party it up with your new light and sound show or setup electronics to open automatically like your own space show
- Cook meals for you and your guests with crafted meal receipes from animals you herded yourself. Enjoy the bonus from eating various ingredient combinations
- Trade throughout the universe; buy stock items and warp between Space stations, Airports and minor settlements to make money
- Or become a fighter and hunt traders, other pirates, or the law. Use an emergency jump and get the hell outta there
- Get an Aircraft Carrier to store your Fighters, Haulers and Exploration vessels. Customize the floating base with your own personal rooms and equipment. Trade with aliens that land in your new Mother Ship, or buy their ships out completely
- Build up your fleet of Cruisers to protect you and the Carrier. Send them out to various missions and reap the rewards or suffer the damage from mistakes
- Land directly on the Cruisers of your fleet and gather their profits or explore their engine room to repair the damage
- Upgrade your Carrier, ships, vehicles, guns & backpack with better shields, weapons, and storage space.
- Join multiplayer in all of the above and blow your mind.
small thing. you actually can randomly run into players now apparently. it was added as a part of one of the updates, forgot which. but it basically connects two (or more) players who happen to be in the same system to a local network and they're able to play together. pretty neat. it's never happened to me but i've heard of it happening to some people.
The updates are amazing, and free. Nice video btw. :) Theres soooo many things to do in NMS.
Agreed!
@@derk4737 I think you get one offered to you after some time playing in the game.. Unless I'm thinking of a different type of ship.
Every game literally gets free updates. Why not call these expansions or dlc?
@@juusukun DLC and Expansions are things of the past! Its all about the in-store purchases now. Loot boxes.
Are you not happy with this game getting updates, and things added for free?
Started playing 2 days ago cause it looked cool now I’m obsessed I swear such a fun game
It's, by far, the most creative fantasy-end of the space sim experience.
However, it's also one of the most casual. This is also a good thing but certainly will make older, more veteran players wanting more. Even the fairly high tuned mods can't fill the void (litterally and laterally speaking heh).
If Star Citizen is the most core feature space sim, then NMS is the exact other end; content rich.
When you start to miss one, remember this!
I think that they can put in the game some realistic aspects, but without descharacterizing the fantasy-end and casual-like of the game, only to make a contrast of game tone. Or even better, make this realistic points adjustable as the Customized mode that exists in the game.
You could try survival or permadeath modes!
The thing is: the game is missing a combat system. If the game had a combat system, or even better, some kind of PvP, the void would be filled. Because without a threat, what's the point of base building, grinding and stuff?
I'm playing NMS with PS5 VR2, and I have to say that this is the best game I have ever played, and most likely will be my favorite for years to come.
Just started playing and I am glad I waited to buy it, it is very well polished at this point. I have been deleting the shader folder in the in game fairly often to prevent crashing though. Not sure what that is about but as long as I delete it before I play I don't get a crash. Still, loving it so far and I am barely a week into it.
I've been wanting to pick it up solely for VR. I watched a friend play it a few back (vanilla game) and he was zapping rocks and a rock grew legs, walked up the cavern wall and ran away lol
He hasn't played it much either so we were both surprised.
There is a story, but mostly told through the expeditions. It’s actually pretty interesting. Singularity has added a lot of potential for future lore in the game and I’m actually really excited for the future expeditions lore wise.
I’m a bit biased because I got the game during the looper expedition but that one was my personal favorite. The resetting when dying really made me get good at the game on survival quickly. Singularity was pretty awesome if you ignore the technical issues. The whole spreading corruption thing will definitely be expanded upon in the future.
there is no story, just meaningless grind
You forgot to mention that you can play it in VR which is an AMAZING experience.
I wish VR didnt make me sick :( I bought it for my PSVR2 but I sold it now.
Which VR headsets?
When those first trailers hit like a decade ago and the hype was unprecendented, I thought yeah no way this will ever work. The launch seemed to prove me correct.
But somehow at the end of the day they made it work... They completely redeemed themselves, made the game they promised and actually expanded on it massively for free. It's quite impressive now.
I really miss my Playstation just for playing No Man's Sky. What a fame... to see how it has changed over the years... my goodness. Might wanna get me a ps4 again just to jam.
My one tip: learn trade routes. You will never have to worry about units (money) again.
No mans sky is on sale on the PS store right now for half price ($29.99 instead of $59.99 for the PS5 and PSVR2 versions) and yes you get both for the same price, and can freely switch back and forth between versions at will
The best money I've spent on gaming since buying my Xbox. It's a lesson for all those mediocre developers out there. We'll pay for a game, but we don't accept paid dlc, battle passes, or p2w being "normalized".
I'm gonna buy this game soon, No Man's sky seems to be what Spore wanted to be with the interplanetary mode but better, very much looking forward to play this game
I really wish they would add ground combat with a cover system. It would be damn near perfect.
Would fill completly the weakness of game, that is combat. Outlaws was the first update in this direction. The last one was other. I hope that you ara speaking will be the content of the next one.
The last thing no man's sky needs is to borrow yet another thing from another game we've already played😮
@@BigDaddyWes There's not a single space game out there that decently incorporates both space and ground combat missions. Elite Dangerous failed and Star Citizen may never be finished.
@@whiskeyearned1543 At least NMS can be decent or good in combat while excellent in space missions
@@DanielFerreira-hz4cc True. We're getting Starfield though, so I'm happy.
I do wish they would add more combat. Like pirate bases. Pirates or maybe some type of galactic military will be on different planets and have bases etc. Maybe they are there scavenging for resources or they may be the military could be fighting pirates also. Or sometimes even doing deals with the pirates. Add some corruption to the mix.
An amazing ggame, and one fo the few i have permanently installed...you will always find something to do even after thousands of hours (my normal play save has over 800hours, and about other 400 between expeditions and permadeath)
and the last update was insane...and all for free
I have a question, does the game feel repetitive? Minecraft, for example, bored me after some hours even though it was exciting for me at first. Is this game more interesting than Minecraft?
@@Carolina-ql1kn like most games, but tbh the amount of content is a lot, at this point I've done almost all the content and come back for expeditions/updates.
At some point it does get repetitive, but there's something very relaxing once you get to the end game, there are days where I just go and play just for sightseeing and relax
This game is currently on sale at 50% off on the Switch for the next 8 days.
got it on launch, was obviously extremely dissapointed however, given the concept of the game, we all knew deep down that it just wasnt gonna be what we had hoped for ON DROP but the potential was always there and the developers were ALWAYS honest and transparent. To see where this game is now 7 years after i got it almost makes me tear up. ESPECIALLY considering the landscape of the gaming industry today and the incomplete flops that release every single month now. For these developers to trust in the process, trust in the fans, and trust in themselves speaks absolute volumes to their commitment to make this game a masterpiece. Because of this, i will always support this game and the team that created it. Every studio should take note that when you release a flop, be honest, transparent, and do you best to fix it.
So true
Many gamers have been disappointed, but No Man's Sky was never a flop. Hello Games is a small team, and they sold a massive amount of copies at launch, so they really have the financial freedom to offer free updates for years to come. This is my number 2 game, after The Secret of Monkey Island and before Civilization.
@@pascalalexisparvex a game selling a lot doesnt have anything to do with a game being a flop in regards to the player retention because a game sold is a game sold. Cyberpunk was a flop and sold millions. BF2042 flop but sold millions... You are looking at it from a business perspective so you are correct, they didnt flop financially. But we dont run those companies so why would we care? They flopped in regard to our expectations and they all flopped HARD in that regard.
honest and transparent? easy killer. They went radio silent for 3 months after their nonstop lies and scam at the beginning.
I have it on my ps5. Started game once and 10min lates I switched to other game. Because of this video I give it another try today
The awesome thing with the new Echoes Update that came out in August 2023 is that you can become a well-known space pirate by f***ing destroying civilian frieghters and you can get away with it by eventually getting far enough away from Sentinel Interceptors that they lost track of you. Yes, I have done it multiple times and the Vykeens are my enemies... that's totally fine cause you can eventually get the reputation back in multiple ways... and I am a freaking Gek. That's the beauty with this game, you can do WHATEVER YOU WANT!? Put yourself in the shoes of that traveler.

@@AverageGameReviews Hey. Thanks for the offer, but I don't play the game as frequent to really know the game well and its community. I play a lot of games casually. I will think about it when I play the game more frequent and actually invest some time into it.
At the moment at the time of this reply, I have been playing and investing time into Fortnite (due to the new LEGO Fortnite), Minecraft and Just Dance (I REALLY love Just Dance as a whole). The other game I have previously invested a lot of time into is Forza Horizon 5, but at the moment I am taking a break from it due to video game burnout for that particular video game. I played that game so frequently on a weekly basis that it got boring for me after a while.
Again, thanks for the offer... but I am not much help at the moment for No Man's Sky.
Thank you for this, i played this game back when it released as i was clueless on the early reviews and poor quality on release. There was no tutorial and was thoroughly confused on how to start. Maybe I could get back into it and bring one of my friends along
Woah I gotta get a freighter!
I’ve done most everything else but never had enough money for one.
Hardcore mode is a challenge! Fun, but I have a save game where I’m basically stuck on a poorly resourced planet and get shot down by hostiles if I manage to fix my ship and take off! 🚀
yeah, I'll take a look when they add 50+ bosses. Tried this a few times and I just feel no incentive at all to do this busywork stuff without any goal.
Bosses would be incredible to makr the fauna more hazardous, and more types of harmful plantes would be incredible too. Is a space sim, so... Almost every planet is friendly is not much realistic, even in the fiction.

Great video! No Man's Sky on Switch does not have online multiplayer though. The only "cross-platform" connection to Switch are bases and discoveries.
So whats my goal in this game ?
I just think it's truly one of the best stories in gaming history how this game went from legit dud and hated pariah to excellent game that has become beloved. I don't remember such an extreme turnaround ever. The fact that they pulled it off and continued to work so hard on making it right, adding features, improving polish, etc.; it ingratiates them to fans and really creates good will for the company and the game. Hats off to Hello games, who was legitimately hated with passion at one time and is now saluted and appreciated. It was no easy feat to pull off this 180, but they did it and it's impressive
I bought a used ps4 copy last month to have something else for my psvr2. Vr or flat, this game is slowly working its way into becoming my favorite game. Never played beforehand.
love this video but i want to point out one thing the game is really enjoyable its one of my favorite space games but the planets get repetitive they just change colors and that's it there is no reason for me to explore other planets game should give me the reason to do so for example in astroneer you have to go to other planets in order to gather certain resources and all of the planets are different. if you want iron you have to go to another planet if you want clay its on every single planet i mean you get the idea. its just gets boring after some time(this is ONLY problem i have with no mans sky if they resolve it than this game will become 10/10 for me)
I don’t agree you said after awhile when 50 hours in? Not every planet is the same they have different looks, some are all water, some are cavs, some are getting hit with asteroids, some are full of hazards and you can’t stay on long, some are overridden with creatures, and some have hostile sentinels that constantly attack. The only time you start to see the repetitiveness is after like 15 planets or so and sometimes some planets have so many resources and things on them one of the perfect planets you can stay on that planet for like a whole 15 hours. The only way you’ll find the repetitiveness in the planets really fast is if you’re looking for it by just going from planet to planet and system to system really fast and not even actually adventuring each planet and actually stepping foot on them only just flying through.
Dang bro your missing out I had a planet the other day that was huge mountains all around covered in jungle fauna with extremely deep valleys
@@andrebillups4079 i mean i get what you are trying to say and i do agree that this game is beautiful with its procedural generation but keep in mind that i am playing this for 1 reason to explore ye its really good that all planets are some what different but once you find 1 good planet then exploring different planets is just waste of time cuz every single planet has same resources so basically its pointless to switch planets. every planet has to have something that only that planet has and then going to different planets will have meaning. dont get me wrong i am not hating on this game in fact its one of my favorites i enjoy playing but i am not the only one pointing at this problem. so long story short i want developers to make sure that each planet has its role.
@@strange1702 but I’ve planets have different resources, water planets, volcanic planets, and there’s a few other types that have RARE elements on them. The common elements to survive are the only things on EVERY planet which is Iron, Carbon, and the plant things that give oxygen. So you have to travel to different elemental hazard threat planets to get certain RARE RESOURCES that aren’t on every single planet. Also I don’t play the game to mine the elements so idc just saying your comment isn’t accurate. I turned off the element collecting part of the game lol.
great vid. had this game for a while completed the story' line now just exploring and doing my own thing but still fun .
500 million years is how long it'll take to even land on each planet
My biggest issues with the game are that there is not really any purpose. Like, you're given this HUGE galaxy to explore, and the only thing to guide you when you start is an abysmal tutorial and confusing menus. I've tried to get into this game a few times now, when new content is released, and just cannot play for long because it's so daunting with how much stuff there is, and how little the game tells you about anything and that there's just no pointers at all.
The redemption arc of No Man's Sky is legendary
I've been playing this now this week for 10 hours and it's amazing! Feels a lot like a mix between mass effect and destiny. I am curious anout starfield too.
Literally just got back into the game this week and binged it with over 40 hours smacked into my new world and already having 40 in my previous.
In that time I completed the main story thread found a S tier Freighter with a decent fleet and half power squad, an exotic ship very luckily, and have a decent base set up at a trade post.
I’d say you’re wrong about the story aspect as the main story “if you actually read it” is quite immersive and sorta philosophical and a little meta but gives you a good chunk of gameplay.
That being said I literally forgot about the main story until I had my base, freighter, exocrafts, etc. but I blitzed through it in about 20 hours so yeah not significant but still note worthy
It needs real guns and planets loaded with hostile creatures it's too passive of a game. Also PVP and base raiding would be amazing. Flying through space with friends, finding a planet with bases, landing and setting up a FOB then foundational wipe people. Would be super top notch
Something like this could be huge. And it's not completely out of the question as updates are so often and high quality!
@@AverageGameReviews oh how ive spent many a day longing for interplanetary raiding ahah
I'd like planets with weather so hostile you need to be in a vehicle to survive it for more than 10 seconds & planets where everything is trying to kill you.
@@Palerax This would be great!
I heard “creative mode” and immediately added it to my list because I’m a lazy cow so crafting is too much effort for me but I love building and creating even in games like subnautica where there’s only limited stuff
Just subscribed! Your voice over is very smooth, I dig it! Do you write any script or just wing it? I struggle with this is why I ask. CHEERS!
Cheers man! Yes, the whole thing is scripted - I would have no chance at it flowing well without doing that. Although I do know some people who can manage as good a job unscripted....The script is a big part of making it smooth - gotta watch your sentence lengths.
i wonder how many times theres been a situation where two players were in neighboring systems or maybe even seperate planets in the same system and theyd never know lol
Great review , bought this purely for my vr2
Great to hear!
I bought this game up on release but didn't play it for long. Maybe I should get it out again and give it another blast.
Definitely worth a second chance.
Ive compared to this game to Star citizen quite often, the only difference is that SC has mechanics like salvaging and a much more "realisitic" approach to all things gameplay wise. Outside of that, NMS has much more to offer (even if it isnt an MMO) and has progressed further than SC has in years within a short period of time and is still getting better. So deff much more fun, arcadey and vibrant with Cross play too so you and your mate on Xbox can enjoy it together, instead of needing a monster PC to even begin playing it
An interesting read, although not certain if drawing comparisons between a very early alpha and a fully established title, is the way to go 👍🏾
And there's VR too ;)
With derelict freighters offering a more scary atmosphere to the game
Once you play with VR you cannot go back to 2d. I bought PSVR 2 just so I can play game in VR. First I played with PSVR but it was severely limited due to ps4 so I took brake until I got ps5 and psvr2.
Ayooooooo that's literally my cape and design everything in the beginning 👀👀👀👀
You must have good taste
@@AverageGameReviews sure do 😋
I haven’t played the game for over a year now but I plan on picking it up again once I finish borderlands 3. I‘m quite excited to see what’s new.
I'm gonna download this now, thank you for the excellent info!
Great to hear!
The thing is, it’s still nothing like what was eluded to in the E3 demo. And it never could be.
Verdict is out. No man's sky is actually technically better than Starfield.😂😂
What...starfield...that releases tomorrow 😂
Oh it's out in some time zones...guess I'll need to make a comparison video!
As soon as you figure out the ship trick then you become the richest person a live and then learn about advanced space stations being the go to landing spot makes this game take no time to master. needs way more content for playability than just mining because eventually you get to where mining is effortless.
Couldnt agree more
Even with starfields release i am still playing this game. The echoes update was bananas. This is still my favorite game to date on both pc and switch (yes i double dipped). The devs have continued to show the kind of love you would expect from a parent to their favorite child... and not their often-in-the-way and least favorite third child.... sigh.
No mans sky>>>>>>>>starfield
It is what it is today thanks to the people that stayed and loved the game.
Over that many planets for each of the 256 galaxies.
I have over 3000 hours across saves.
wow.
I find the point about the story lacking, considering NMS has one of the more brain-twisting meta-narratives. And though I agree that the method of conveying such a grand story through text can be seen as counterproductive it is absolutely worth following.
For those interested - the main sources for the story and lore are:
1. Main storyline (duh)
2. Expeditions
3. Numerous story-rich side quests
4. Abandoned terminals in infested facilities
5. Boundary Failures which are giant, circular machines found on Glitched/Exotic worlds
6. Remembrance terminals which are accessible after the main story
7. Ancient Monoliths which are found randomly on most planets
8. Giant server towers which tell different stories based on the type of faction that is controlling the system you are visiting
If you like motives of existentialism, deus ex machina (literally god in the machine, not some sudden unexpected nor uncalled for plot twists), divine psychology and coping with upcoming apocalypse using hope, I very much suggest following the story.
I bought this a while ago and loved it, but my old PC took about ten minutes to load it. Finally just upgraded and intrigued to load this up again. I’ve been curious about others like Star Citizen, but this obviously is complete, and ticks more boxes for me. Somewhat less risk of piracy, I think, which would probably be ruinous for me with my hand pain and energy keeping me off the PC for three years anyway, once I’ve finally spent time doing something, I probably wouldn’t be very amused.
I downloaded this yesterday and I already love it
I have to give no man’s sky their flowers they made cross play possible between all platforms and vr players can play with non vr players like come on what other game is really doing that
Yea; I think the story is really quite good and psychologically deep.
Hope it goes on discount soon. They just took away the discount as the demand has increased which was disappointing.
So I just got the Xbox game pass for PC games for the first time ever. I've done this so that I can play Starfield on release day and see if I like it or not. Anyways I noticed No man's sky is included with Gamepass so downloading it now. The release was one of the worst but it looks like the developers really cared about fixing that and making the game they promised. I will edit this comment and rate the game out of 10 at the end of the day when I finish playing it.
„Everything can be mined, actually everything“
[forms an archway out of shit]
😭
Im really stunned on how good this truly epic game is the colourful graphics are insane
A few (ok plenty) of corrections of incredibly wrong information on this video:
1. The main quest is delivered by narrative, you talk with 3 or 4 characters (one of which you are looking for) and up to the end that is how it goes. It doesn't have an end because (this is so since day 1 so not a spoiler) if you "end" the game you are just sent to a NEW galaxy)
2. The story is actually interesting because it explains the "plot holes" in the game
3. Crafting is way more basic then minecraft. You just select what you want and "craft", no need to put things in a bench in proper order or what nots. Also, most things can be used raw.
4. You cannot mine the whole ground, only a few metters, and IT IS NOT PERMANENT, it WILL reset back to original after a few hours of playthrough (basically you have a limited amound of edits)
5. Only one material is exclusive to space, and its almost never used (platinum)
6. You don't really need to stock up resources to go out exploring, specially on non extreme planets where the atmosphere will wear you down
7. Not all systems have space stations
8. The so called ingame economy is useless and nobody cares, you will buy/sell without looking what is high/low. Money in NMS literally grows on trees
9. You will never be poor if you know how to play, you will have enough to buy everything the game has to offer 10 times over in 100h play
10. Your first freighter is FREE, and their prices are not high. Also, they are only useful as a space base.
11. You will never need to repair a frigate if you don't send them in literally suicide missions
12. Nobody does the multiplayer missions in groups, everybody solos them, it is even faster that way
13. Space battles are mindnumbing easy and you will often beat 5~10 enemies without even losing your shields
14. Your squadron can only GET IN YOUR WAY, they do no damage, bump into you all the time and stay in front of you, most experienced players don't use them.
15. You will only ever use the mech exosuit (And no, not really that great for battle), or the hovercraft to traverse distances. They are weak and mostly used to travel fast.
16. Every planet is different, but the same. Same minerals, same enemy mechanics, same dangers. So its more a visual gimmick. There are even only 3 different hostile plants. 3!
17. You will still use up dozens if not hundreds of hours just to check if all I said is true =p
Generative IAs would upgrade the NMS world, since NPCs to events in galaxy and solar systems to make this lively. This lacks in the game and is what you say.
That astroid bit at the beginning made me laugh so hard 😂
Hard enough for a sub? 🫣
@@AverageGameReviews Sure!
Bro this game looks fire. Might cop
Currently constructing my space wizard staff :)
The best part of the game is that Sean said he plans to have at least have 10 years of more updates for the game.
I play on relaxing mode and this went to a broken looking game to a pure masterpiece on my PS5 it is a great game to play to save yourself money just get a used ps4 copy only 25$ and upgrade it to the PS5 version for free and you will have an amazing game on your hands. Follow the storyline until you go on the planet ship Onomaly and visit your base then go back up to space and then you will get your pellets plan so you can make them and get pets. Looks like crap on the Nintendo switch get it on thePS5 that’s the best❤
Man this video made me wana buy this game (tho on ps5).
Enjoying my first experience on no man’s sky till starfield launches.🥂😎
I think a lot of people are doing that! 😁
I tried to play but honestly got confused and lost when having to make or repair something but not having it unlocked
I used to play it. I grinded and grinded. I
Built a lovely base. Then the ground swallowed it up and I never came back.
Gaming's greatest redemption arc of all time, bar none.
The story literally moved me to tears tho xD
Man i have to play this sometime!
Played about a year ago. Game looks completely different. 😮
Every time I go back to this game I realize I still don’t like shooting rocks
Haven't played in about a year about to hop back on with some buddy's this weekend
AGR, how you liking the Interceptor update? Surprised the video made no mention.
I'm a big fan! Made this video a short while ago and held fire on the upload, so it wasn't included. Hoping to make some more nms videos though, so if will get a mention!
Looks great but I'm almost 50 and don't have the time I had when younger.
A shame, I would have loved this 👍
ships with gunners would be cool for multiplayer
"it's been better than on release." I tried it. This is the same shallow as puddle wide as ocean experience as on release.
Played this game a few years ago, downloaded it again some months ago, but only spent a couple of days with it. Perhaps the grinding was to much for me. I'll download it again and play the creative version.
Only thing I dislike about this game is the lack of ship types. Even tho there is a lot of them it’s all the same fighter, choper sized thing. In Elite Dangerous you can even pilot massive hauling ships and cruisers that are so large you can fit hangars into them and leave the main ship or send them out with your co-pilots to fight enemy ships.
I feel like I am missing something early on, it always seems like I’m hunting for an element I can’t find.
Also fully supports VR. (although I've not played it6 for a couple of years, it is gorgeous).
Can you play a whole game with a co-op partner ? Building base together etc. ?
You can do most things together - exploration, anomaly missions etc. Base building requires the player to place a 'base computer' where they want to build to claim the land as theirs. Therefore 2 people can't both own the same base. You can build bases near to eachother on the same planet though.
Minimum requirement too high for old pc 😮💨 but enthusiastic to dust off old VR.
