Can anyone recommend a decent space sim? I’ve talked myself in and out of buying No Man’s Sky a dozen times, and all this shade will probably remove it from my wishlist.

I don’t want to yuck anyone’s yum, as the review scores keep improving so obviously folks are liking it, but you’re not alone if it still doesn’t click. They keep polishing it and piling on more stuff, but the base game is still rather disjointed and in my opinion, easy to burn out on. Procedural generation doesn’t mean any of the procedurally generated things are going to be interesting.

It seems like the kind of game that sort of requires a lot of time to make it really click, but I wasn't having fun within the first 2 hours, so it got refunded.

Yep, I had my fun on it, but without true PVE it's just another exploration/building game.

Yeah seriously, no matter how much they tack on, it still doesn't make the base game fun to play. Nothing more boring than a game that feels like a job.

I confess I haven't popped back in for a few updates now but it still was missing the slick/dynamic animal behaviour that even the very first trailers had, which I was most interested in.

Well that's good, I was just getting close to running out of the old planets.

Kind of wild they keep going.

if all it takes to keep a developer improving their game is to hype it to the moon and then turn it into a meme when it releases then maybe we should do that more often /s

forreal forreal though these game devs are the shit and I'm grateful for all the work they keep putting into this

All it takes is people with a vision.

And a willingness to lie out your ass and fraudulently market for years
