I have played it a lot in the past. Used to log in again with every new update. But for some reason I haven’t touched it since late 2023. Just got a little busy with reading and other games. Though to be honest I can’t seem to work up the motivation to start it up again and I don’t really know why.
It has come such a long way since launch and I can only commend them for staying active for so long. The regular updates and expansions for a game that has no micro-transactions… it’s awesome. I would recommend at least trying it to anyone who’s even a tiny bit curious. Wait until it’s on sale and you can’t really go wrong.
Perhaps I will give it another go in the future. I can see I’ve missed a lot of new features.
Last time me and a buddy played we triggered enemies on a corrupted planet to earn parts to reclaim a sentient ship, but it was bugged so the enemies included corrupted and regular enemies and the ship at the end was 2 ships glitching into each other as they occupied the same location (one for each player).
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.
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.
The sameness of every planet was a major turnoff for me, plus the scale of the universe pretty much guarantees that you’ll never run into another player organically. The game is basically just Minecraft in space, except worse.
This is the reason why I don’t like procedurally-generated games. What’s the point of a big, massive universe, if it’s nothing but a bunch of generated sameness? Environments that weren’t handcrafted are a major turnoff for me. As someone who sees video games as art, it just feels soulless and empty. Like AI-generated art, except it’s an entire game.
I don’t think you can, but the game is so boring that I never played long enough to find out. That’s the point I’m making. I’m not interested in a multiplayer game if there are no randoms to run into. Might as well just play an SP game.
Why is this even an issue for you? Just play it like SP without thinking about online factor. Maybe you will stumble upon some player after a month of playing, giving you a proper “holy fucking shit” moment, but realistically why even think about it and why turn it into a turnoff?
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.
Oh you’ve got to play it! Then report back and let me know how it went. I guess the folks that made it are from Barnsley. This means nothing to me as a foreigner, but this game charmed the pants off me.
Ooh, Barnsley! That’s actually super close to where I hail from (we had a Barnsley phone number and post code, despite not technically being in Barnsley). That’s so cool, it’s not the kind of place you typically see depicted in media
