    Despite the well documented flaws and false promises, I still think this game is an amazing achievement after 40 hours of play. Everything is quite -simply said - “arcade” and the grinding is tedious but it is an absolute blast to travel, discover and explore. No man’s sky will certainly be part of my gaming hall of fame in term of memories. Moreover, it should get better over time.

Once you get past the initial inventory management disaster and upgrade your ship and exosuit with enough slots the game becomes much more enjoyable.

    I actually went int o this game knowing almost nothing about it. Saw only a handful of screen shots. So hype wise there was nothing for me. I only learned about all the promises and BS afterwards. Good thing as I got to experience it without any expectations. So what did I think? *meh*

    Visually the game is pretty, yet bland at the same time. The worlds all look unique, kind of. But    I actually went int o this game knowing almost nothing about it. Saw only a handful of screen shots. So hype wise there was nothing for me. I only learned about all the promises and BS afterwards. Good thing as I got to experience it without any expectations. So what did I think? *meh*

    Visually the game is pretty, yet bland at the same time. The worlds all look unique, kind of. But after a while the worlds can just be simplified: Toxic, Ice, Radiation, Hot, Rainy, Barren, Water, Nice. Even though they are all procedurally generated they all fit into at least one of those categories. Same more or less applies to all the Flora, Fauna and buildings. Don't get me wrong, at first it's really cool. But after about the 10th or so planet repetition and tedium kick in.From that point it's just the same thing over and over with practically no real payoff.

    The music and sound are great. The score kind of reminds me of a cross between the soundtrack of the Dig and the ambient music of Minecraft.

    For all the gripe I still enjoyed it, or at least the first 10 - 20 hours. No Man's Sky feels like it was trying too hard to be something it's not. Yet this game does give me hope. The concept is solid and I truly hope other developers use what this game does right. If anything this game is a stepping stone for other great things. A milestone in gaming, provided it doesn't get buried in its own controversy.

    Overall:
    No Man's Sky is a decent game that hyped itself up too much. Clearly it could be improved allot, but we should not overlook all the things it does right. Hopefully a bigger developer might step in and apply the ideas to their game. Imagine what Bethesda or Bioware could have done with this (aside from DLC'ing it to death.)

    Tip:
    Don't underestimate how far the Galactic core is. Always jump as far as your engines will allow.
    Scan and upload everything you see.
    Don't upgrade your initial weapon or ship more than you need to. +26 ship size and +22 Weapon size is when you focus on upgrades.
    Sigma < Tau < Theta < Omega. Always aim to have the highest. Only need to have 1 of each item on the exosuit, no need stack those things.
    Grenade launcher is great if you get lost in caves. Just shoot your way out.    … Expand

    More of an art project then a proper game. But what a project.
    Playing the original Elite, the new Elite Dangerous, EVE online or even Moon (DS) never gave the feeling of lost in space that this thing that 6-18 ppl built.

    Do your research before buying, and if you're in to this kind of stuff... enjoy.

    I have put over 60 hours into NMS already and thoroughly enjoy it, BUT...

    The Bad: 1. Crashes. I currently have the most recent patch (1.05) and I'm still getting crashes. Before 1.05 it was enough to frustrate me, now it's once in a blue moon and "tolerable". 2. Bugs. I have discovered all species on 4 planets yet have only been credited with the 'journey achievement' on 2. The    I have put over 60 hours into NMS already and thoroughly enjoy it, BUT...

    The Bad:
    1. Crashes. I currently have the most recent patch (1.05) and I'm still getting crashes. Before 1.05 it was enough to frustrate me, now it's once in a blue moon and "tolerable".

    2. Bugs. I have discovered all species on 4 planets yet have only been credited with the 'journey achievement' on 2. The last planet which I am still on, I spent the past 3 days looking for one more creature, to find it and get a 15/15 found but only a 93% completed rate. After this, I have zero incentive to continue scanning and searching for creatures as I gain nothing from it, except wasted time.

    3. Graphics. IMO the graphics are actually fine, except in the most recent update I find the pop-ins much worse.

    4. Pirates and space combat. I probably should list this at number 1 as I find it the most annoying, I can hardly travel in space without being attacked. Since I can't fly away from them and space combat is horrible, I just let myself get killed and fly back to retrieve my items. Oh and did I mention the space combat is horrible? I have managed to destroy one ship, but it was on its own. Usually you're taking on 3 ships at once.

    5. Things really aren't that different. I have been to countless planets and systems, but after you've seen a dozen planets with different creatures etc. it all ends up looking the same. I have found 'space whales' on 3 planets so far that are all absolutely identical. I can't say I feel the excitement of finding something new when I land on a new planet now.

    6. Maxing things out happens fairly quickly. After about 50 hours my exosuit is maxed out with 48 slots. After you purchase one ship with say 20-25 slots (around 2-4 million units), all you have to do is find crashed ships and gain an extra slot until your happy. I'm at a 30 slot ship despite only buying 1 ship so far worth 1.8million units that had 24 slots. In other words I have 4.8 million units now but see little reason to spend on anything now.
    Also gaining all the basic blueprints can be accomplished in just a matter of hours. Afterwards you just keep finding or receiving ones you already know.

    7. Cost. I judge all games I buy on cost vs enjoyment I get. It's $80CDN which is what AAA games cost here. I rarely purchase games at this price as I'll wait for price drops or sales, but I figured it would be worth the gamble as I was looking for a more relaxing game to play. The last game I spent $80 on was Uncharted 4, which is a well polished and amazing game that I can say gave me $80 worth of enjoyment.
    Spending $80 on a game that crashes constantly, has bugs that doesn't recognize your progress simply isn't worth it. I actually do like NMS, but I would say it's a $40CDN game at most.

    8. Inventory. I nearly hit submit before remembering the inventory. The worst thing is if your ship or exosuit are full, then you can't see materials required to craft or add technology, meaning you must either sell or just destroy items to free up a slot.

    The Good:
    1. Well, my favourite thing to do in games like GTAV or Just Cause3 is wander around and do my own thing. That's pretty much what NMS is. Wander around and do you own thing. I find that relaxing and a nice change of pace from other games I play.

    Despite having more negatives I do actually enjoy NMS and it could still be a good, solid game in the future. However in its current state at its current price, I simply could not recommend this game to anyone.    … Expand

    What happened to the game we were expecting? Well, nothing... It was just all about the money! Mr. Murray has misled gamers and created expectations of a game that never matched the product in the making. The end product is a mere husk of his very "vivid" descriptions.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've been following the game since the 2014 reveal, I've watched pretty much all the interviews and was very hyped for the game. As person who enjoys Sci-Fi, particular Star Trek, Stargate etc.. I thought this could be the game of my dreams.
    But now after 2 weeks I have come to find the game being shallow. Most of the worlds I have seen have been varied of content, specifically animals, weather and colour pallet. But there is about 50% of the stuff (flora and fauna) you see that are all the same just a different name/colour.
    The gameplay mechanics is very dumbed down from all those videos. The game is nothing like the videos. Now I will say I never expected to see anything like that 2014 E3 video, but I did expect the gameplay to be better. FInding material in the game is very very frustrating, being a Sci-Fi themed game you'd think you'd have the ability to scan for certain materials and not just hope to find some. It's become very tedious. The whole Suit and Ship upgrade system is dull, the space combat is boring. The Story is, missing and broken. All my Atlas way points take me away from the centre.
    And now the actual point of the game, traveling to the centre. It's dull, it's slow and at the centre [spoiler] Its a kick in the teeth[/spolier]
    I really wanted this to succeed, maybe it's my own fault in believing HG were developing a mind blowing engine. But its repetitive, un-exciting and I have no wish to play it any more.

    From the beginning, the game is exciting and interesting. You will spend hours at the least on your first planet, hashing things out, daring to brave the elements and creatures to explore just a little further.

You will spend hours at the least on your first planet, hashing things out, daring to brave the elements and creatures to explore just a little further. When you are able to leave your planet and later your solar system at last, you will be awed by the freedom of space exploration, new discoveries, and the mystery of your own personal space opera.

    To this point, the game is among the best ever. After this point, it is admittedly repetitive, and you will be frustrated with very limited inventory space, nagging hp, hazard, and fuel bars, and the realization that you may have already seen the best of the game that you will ever discover, as each encounter may or may not be more or less interesting, each planet or solar system you visit may or may not be worth the time.

    Some players are paradoxically doomed to endure dead, boring worlds with naught to do, while others may by random chance have an incredible game experience as dictated by in basis, a roll of the dice.

    No game can boast as much content, but the quality of that content is lacking. I have to give my review a +/-1 margin of error as well, because a person's experience could be shaped entirely by the randomization of their starting point and subsequent journey. So this rates as a 7-9.

    Even when taken only to the point that it starts becoming repetitive, it is well worth the trip, because that initial set of thrills in the game still has more longevity than the likes of for example, the highly rated (by me as well) Uncharted 4, which I finished in about 10 hours and haven't touched since.    … Expand

    Most of the disappointment comes from the fact that some important features are nonexistent, that were either implied or mentioned by the devs. These include lack of multiplayer, faction space battles and most importantly; lack of variety, action (by the NPCs) and unfulfilled space physics (planetary rotation etc.).

    If these features are somehow added to the game, this game would become one of all time favorite for me, despite its repetitive nature. But still in its current state, the game has decent graphics, very few bugs (my experience with ps4) and a mystery solving vibe on top of exploration, so it is definitely due some credit.    … Expand

    Every review you see thats positive is either from the developers, or testers themselves or people who were involved somehow. This game is a complete lie. There needs to be some type of lawsuit to pursue a chargeback for services not rendered. This is a complete lie. False advertisement. And because there is no penalty to create a game thats false, this is why No Mans Lie exists.

    While I’m sure developer Hello Games is still tweaking things and perhaps even creating more content for No Man’s Sky, the current state of affairs is a strong one. This galactic opus still offers an infinite amount of content for those who want to lose themselves among the stars, but now also contains a concrete throughline that will satisfy a wider array of players. It can be irritating at times, but it’s also full of stunning moments and the satisfaction of building a virtual life among the stars. Four years after launch, it’s finally a journey worth taking.

    The world of No Man's Sky is insanely vast and beautiful, but there’s nothing to do in it! There’s no goal, no destination, no ending, nothing!

    While No Man's Sky is engrossing for the first few hours, repetition starts to set in and the proceedings grow dull. The developers stated that they plan to add significant features such as base building which could dramatically change the game for the better. There's a promising foundation present, so it's possible to envision a more substantial game down the line. As it currently stands, though, our excitement to cross the universe faded sooner than we expected.
