… it really lacks of civilization wars ! I want to be able to join a species and go campaigning against the enemy species, as in the universe of Star Wars or Dune! I know it’s a game of construction and discovery and that’s fine, I love this aspect, but I want to be able to embody the leader of a colonizing Empire!

Patch 4.04 for No Man’s Sky has finally rolled out. The community can now officially enjoy the additional free bonus slots, beefed up module stats, ability to lock yourself out of changing game modes and more! 👍

Patch notes: https://www.nomanssky.com/2022/10/waypoint-patch-4-04/

The first time i saw a gas giant in the game ‘Outer Worlds’…my jaw just…dropped at the sight of a rainbow Jupiter. Then i felt sad because there is NOTHING in No Man’s Sky as beautiful as that. Not even close. And it makes me upset because i specifically remember Sean promising us gas giants multiple times. So far, Hello Games has done a fantastic job updating the game, but gas giants were the one thing i was excited for the most. I don’t even care if we can’t land on them. I’m only saying this because i want No Man’s Sky to be the best it can be.

As a day 1 player of this game, and someone who has only stuck around in recent years to keep up with the progress and updates, I have decided to finally shelve No Man’s Sky. With as much as 1,000 hours of gameplay under my belt, I feel I’m entitled to have an opinion and share it with the world.

•

1). The repetition is on a whole other level. Once you’ve seen between 20 and 40 planets, you’ve basically seen what the entire universe has to offer.

•

2). You can see what an entire planet has to offer within 100 yards of wherever you land your ship.

•

3). The fact that there’s life in just about every single star system, completely strips the game of any enjoyment I’d usually get from adventure and exploration. —- If life were on 1 planet per every 50 to 100 star systems, it would make finding life all the more rewarding and worthwhile.

•

4). The planets with life do not feel very lively, given the fact that, there’s usually less than 20 creatures to discover. Hell, the oceans should be teeming with life, like Subnautica. I mean, have any of you ever gone on a nature walk? There are so many sounds and an unbelievable amount of activity.

This is what No Man’s Sky is lacking.

All of that said, I’m going to be preparing for STARFIELD, now. It’s time for something new.
