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.
