I used to like No Man’s Sky. Then HG turned it into a beta test for their new game coming up and are either too lazy or too incompetent to fix the massive amount of long standing bugs and inconsistent shit

And their Reddit subs are full of kids that are willing to die on a hill- blindly defending HG as the be-all-end-all perfect example of competence in game development, all while ignoring the fact that they break shit constantly every time they release something they clearly never tested.

I played a lot of Elite, and tried No Man’s Sky recently. I get why somebody might like it, perhaps even more. It’s more fun. But perhaps a bit too “colorful” for me. I enjoyed the realistic touch of Elite.

But I cannot tell myself that yet another grind is what I need in my life.

BurnedDonutHole,

Thank you. And a fuck you to the main op from the deepest parts of my heart for not adding the link.

That’s weirdly aggro for something it’d take you, like, 2 minutes at most to look up and find for yourself. You don’t need to rely on OP or anyone else to do it for you.

BurnedDonutHole,

First of all you should stop being offended for others. Second I’m not relying on anyone. It’s a thing of convince and it’s the proper thing to do, reference your subject. According to you we should all do our 3 minute research on internet when reading an article, paper, website or book to find the appropriate sources instead of the op should provide… I wonder what kind of a world we would be living in… So, kindly you can and anyone is thinking like you can fuck off as well!

I’m sorry that you’re having such a bad day that you feel that you need to take it out on other people with such aggression. Perhaps you should go for a walk and clear your head.

fartographer,

I’m having an okay day, but primarily struggling with my ADHD and, therefore, time management. I’d appreciate any suggestions to feel a little bit better.

SlurpingPus,

Brew some tea, add a slice of lemon, cozy up in a chair or sofa. Put on relaxing music.

lmmarsano,

Not providing a link on the web creates a scavenger hunt which is bad form.

Snowpix,
@Snowpix@lemmy.ca avatar

Is it really a scavenger hunt to open Steam, open the store, and search for the game? It takes minimal effort…

MrScottyTay,

Chill my dude, that kind of unwarranted aggression isn’t going to be good for your health

BurnedDonutHole,

Nahh it lets me release all my bottled up anger.

Snowpix,
@Snowpix@lemmy.ca avatar

That’s unhealthy. It makes you an unpleasant person to be around, and I hope you don’t treat people in person the way you’ve treated people here.

BurnedDonutHole,

You can fuck right off too… To be honest I’m a very pleasant person in real life. However we both know you’ll think I’m lying and I defend myself by saying you can fuck right off. I wish you a good day/afternoon/evening/night depending on your location.

Snowpix,
@Snowpix@lemmy.ca avatar

Yeah, that tracks. It’s a lot easier to be a dick on the internet than to be a dick to someone face to face where there might be actual consequences. I’m sure you’re a very pleasant and not at all toxic person. Definitely.

P1nkman,

Don’t you know that all the good people will always tell you they’re good people?

lmmarsano,

It makes you an unpleasant person to be around

nah, it’s refreshing

and I hope you don’t treat people in person the way you’ve treated people here.

I hope we have better things to care about

It was apparently my top played game on PS5 this year because earlier in the year I got really into playing it while listening to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.

I liked it but wish it had better multiplayer. My friends kept dropping out of the party and there wasn’t much to do as part of a small group other than to collect corvette parts to make bigger (or smaller) outrageous ships.

Could be tempted to do the massive week long runs but… I just got back into BG3.

I really wanted to be better.

If there was some kind of automation mechanics I think I would be happy.

It’s enjoyable, but I’ve never been really engaged with it. There’s no progression, I don’t feel like my character, equipment, or ships are getting better even though I’m upgrading things. No planet is special, even though they’re all unique.

I think it would be better if you started out in a “settled” region with interesting factions, hand-designed planets, optional quest lines, etc. The infinite procedurally generated stuff would come into play if you push beyond the edges of known space.

aesthelete, (edited )

Yeah and having an expansive universe with like three languages and three races of intelligent creatures, none of which seem to have any personalities just left it feeling shallow.

There’s no storyline in even the main story. It feels like a vast and lonely universe. I think procedural world generation has largely the same problem as generative AI: infinite slight varieties of responses, all of which are as bland as a HR seminar.

I’ve come to realize over time that I would prefer a completely linear story to games on the other extreme end.

What you’re suggesting sounds very interesting though, linear and more handcrafted content paired with procedural content to pad in the margins. Keep playing forever if you want to, but feel a sense of story and accomplishment in the main storyline.

Edit: that’s probably why the expeditions feel more worth playing… You bump into people because you’re all playing on the same planets, and the star systems you’re playing through are at least somewhat curated.

deltapi,

You didn’t engage with it but have spent the equivalent of 6 weeks of full time work in the game?

Maybe I’m setting my bar too low, but for a video game I expect to get 1hr enjoyment per dollar spent for me to consider a game ‘worthwhile.’

That aside, I agree it would be nice to have a more lived in feel in NMS, cities, a feel of civilization.

Does Elite Dangerous count lol?

kieron115,

I broke my joystick dogfighting in that game in VR lol. A little TOO immersive!

NMS did such a better job of looking like a movie poster than Starfield could ever have hoped to.

100% 💪😤 I play on the Switch 2, I’ve been loving it. I took a break for a bit so I can vibe with other games for a bit until I can figure out if I should start playing multiplayer or finish my quests with my base.

Welcome to Lemmy BTW! You’ll love it here!

namingthingsiseasy, do games w Do we have No Man's Sky fans here?

I enjoy it. It’s a relaxing, peaceful game. I just wish there were more objectives. The idea of just exploring and finding things doesn’t appeal to me all that much. The game has a lot of potential for combat, both in the spaceship and as a FPS, but both of these areas feel like they could be expanded a bit. Overall, I just wish that there were more combat-focused missions after completing the main storyline.

But it’s still pretty good and I enjoy it when I want to relax.

@nfreak@lemmy.ml avatar

I think this is why it never quite clicked with me. It’s a gorgeous game and it’s really come such a long way, but personally I could use a bit more direction.

Slikki,

Ship!

Quetzalcutlass,

I found the combat frustratingly bland, and Hello Games don’t seem interested in improving it. The first time I played was several years after release, and I was surprised to learn the only two enemy encounters that were at all fun or interesting (the sentinel mech and capital ships) were only recently added. That was years ago, and I don’t think they’ve added any new major enemies since. Last I checked there were less than twenty enemy types in the entire galaxy and most are braindead “approach and shoot at the player until you die” types.

The on-foot weapons also feel anemic and sluggish - even your heavy weapons feel like shooting someone with a Nerf gun while whispering pew pew under your breath until they explode, and your actions will often be delayed waiting for an animation to complete (unstowing your weapon every few seconds being the main offender). Ship weapons are better by virtue of not having animations and being the same as every space game ever.

I hope Light No Fire has more enemy variety and a better-designed combat loop.

namingthingsiseasy,

Agreed, and it feels like a waste of so much great potential when you consider the fantastic development they poured into it. Such a shame.

dragonfucker, do games w **ALL KEYS CLAIMED** - Free PC Game Keys to Give Away (Merry Christmas!)

Drag would like Arkham Origins please and thank you. Drag already played Knight and is curious if the rest of the series is good. It’s one of the few games drag 100%ed

FlashMobOfOne,
@FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world avatar

All keys have been claimed, but, Origins is really really good. You’ll probably be able to get it super cheap in the steam sale here in a week.

Psythik,

Bruh you forgot about me… :|

Pretty sure I asked for Arkham Knight before anyone else. No point in complaining about free lunch, but still…

I watched Game Grumps play this game a while back and found it very funny. Certainly a labor of love

@linkinkampf19@lemmy.world avatar

It’s unfortunate they never finished it. 2 eps then poof. Game is right up their alley with the humor.

Zahille7,

I was also disappointed by that.

Thankfully RTGame has a full playthrough and stream VOD uploaded. It’s actually who I watched play it first and I instantly fell in love

Honytawk,

But why? The game is like 2 hours long at most.

I can imagine between Game Grumps, The Grumps, Ninja Sex Party, the extra Patreon content, and other schedules, they can get quite busy lol.
