Had it since launch, have all achievments and finaly uninstalled forever as its unplayable to but it nicely. 0,5/10 I like games that are fun, not ones that have constant 50gb updates adding much nothing, bugs that keep killing You, items that get removed after updates, who cares You spent hours and hours grinding theme etc. It feels like cheap korean mmo, not a space explorasion game. I rather play Elite dangerous or Entropia universe. Elite on good ol NES is more fun than nms curent version :)
I’m just getting into it, honestly so far it seem like my dream game! Getting lost in space, exploring endlessly and building and upgrading all my things is completely captivating
After your intentionally ooooh ahhhhh reality sinks in. And you will realize how boring the game actually is. Don't take my word for it sink a few hundred hours into it and come back here.
@DorisDay-lw4xs happened to me too. i turned off the vignette effect, remove motion blur completely, turned off head movement, and reduced the field of view. all those helps but didn't alleviate the motion sickness entirely. However, over time, my tolerence increase, and now I can play comfortably for a few hours.
@@TheNtisyadi try dramamine they sell it at most gas stations and pharmacies. It's supposed to be for motion sickness from car sickness or sea sickness.
They just came out with an update that massively updates space stations so they're 100x better and added ship customization to the game, among other things. It's significantly better now even when compared to when this video was made lmao
I love it when developers actively update and improve on their games, especially games that didn't initially turn out the way they wanted. It really shows that they care about the game and the community.
I was there in 2016. I felt that heartbreak. It’s taken the better part of 10 years, and it’s finally the game I wanted it to be, or as close to it as I could realistically expect.
@@TheMightyBurgeryou should especially if you have vr. I've never had a vr game that feels like nms, even if it's still not perfect. Being able to see yourself get in your spaceship and being able to fly off feels insane
A really nice and chill review. Thanks for being so concise and quiet, it felt really comfortable to watch. I've been playing for like 7 hours and didn't know about a fair few of these systems lol. This game really is massive.
I played it earlier today, actually. Not my first time, but I’m relatively new. So you can imagine how things went when the second planet I visited in the tutorial, the planet with the distress beacon where you learn base building, had aggressive sentinel drones over every single hill. I play in vr, so despite the the fact that I was getting destroyed, it was pretty cool
NMS in VR - after playing it for literally years - is the first game to ever make me laugh out loud. Seeing everything in 3D was just mind blowing to me.
@@Roundtablist It honestly terrifies me. Went to some water planet and watched in amazement and disbelief as some worm thing pops out the ocean and over me.
No mans sky is fun when you first start with little to no resource's and small amount of c class upgrades then you upgrade and build your empire and exploration status expands. Highly addictive.
That's so awesome to see how far the game's been upgraded since I last played back in 2019/2020. I'd love to see the text become narrated, even AI narration could be a big improvement for some1 like me. Also, please add more cinematic cut scenes, + improve the ground combat
30 hours still learning is so true. I just recently played NMS, and as Destiny 2 player, I fell in love instantly. Im only 70 hours in, and I'm just building impressive bases, and I've only visited 2 galaxies!. I love anything that has space travel and rare environments. Besides RDR2 and Control, this is one of the best games I've ever played. I've literally just recently learned about exo crafts and underwater exploration. W game for real.
I played the game at launch, and never before had I played a game that made me feel more alone or bored lmao. Then I played again when they added the first exocrafts, and vibe still felt off. I gave it some time and just started playing again with the Omega update... The game is now insanely addicting, fun, never feels lonely, beautiful... It's my dream space exploration game by taking these awesome space tropes, and not following the cliche or copying it at all. It's so unique and a dream. The fact that there's like 90 different gameplay loops allows for genuinely limitless playability. Also the combat reworks feel really good, the upgrades and especially space combat are something amazing. The combat still isn't perfect but it genuinely feels like a gameplay aspect now. The fact that I can become a space pirate and experience these massive battles, is incredible considering that they're so fun, and barely 1% of the game.
Your comment convinced me to give this game a try. I was soo waiting for starfield, but that game looks really boring, so i decided to skip that game, to see if they fix alot the coming year. So after your comment i decided to try No mans sky. Looks like this game has everything i am looking for in a space expl game.
@@Guilliano_B wow, I'm kinda flattered that you felt my review was that moving lol. I hope you enjoy it the same way I do, the game is amazing, definitely still feels live service, and the devs come out with consistent updates that add some game changing stuff. I was kinda mad at hello games at launch, but now they've definitely proven it's a labor of love...
The sheer change in No Man's Sky at release vs now is just mind boggling. I got the game either shortly before or after the Pathfinder update, and while I did still like it back then, it's a monumentally different game now. Just the fact that Hello Games was able to shift NMS from one of the most reviled and hated games in modern gaming history into one of the most popular and beloved sci-fi titles ever is just nothing short of a blessing from the gods.
I'd personally think a metroid-esque approach to the derelict freighters would really make them fun. The spookiness kinda goes away when you learn nothing in there is really that scary or tough. Fighting a big boss at the end would be so worth it.
I truly truly hope they continue updating this single game and keep it up indefinitely all the way into the next gen of systems to which they can update it even more. I have some problems with the game buuuuuut it's an amazing accomplishment when you realize how vast the universe is and the potential for future updates. Putting on Pandora and flying through space is such a joy.
I would somewhat disagree that every planet feels unique. You realize after a while that each planet type has only a few potential looks. You know roughly what shape of rocks/plants to expect when landing on a radioactive planet, for example. You also know what to expect in terms of points of interest. They are the same on every planet, with the exception of dead planets and uninhabited systems. Don't get me wrong, there is still a large amount of exploring before the planets become repetitive, and even then you can still stumble on something particularly unique.
True, for sure. I mean, the land masses and color schemes and environmental hazards and flora/fauna are kinda mixed and shuffled, but essentially, I'd say before you hit 100 hours, you're not gonna see a whole lot of new stuff that's totally unique. There's still a ton of variety, and they do a decent job of mixing and matching, though. And in spite of some very similar stuff, quite a bit of it is really impressive-looking, especially the first time you really start getting into it and exploring. I say all the time, I've never taken so many screenshots in a single game EVER!! They all make REALLY cool desktop backgrounds.
@@DarthMohammedRules Do you have an incentive to explore like you visit specific planets or moons for specific resources or blueprints or you just keep landing and looking
This is a great short overview of how good No Mans Sky is I have friends I have recommended the game now I have something to show them that isn't several videos or an hour long. Thank you!
I bought NMS on PS when it first came out. I cannot believe how much it's changed since then. I built a PC recently and I think I'm gonna buy it again. Can't wait to see how it looks on my beast of a pc!
I have started over multiple times since purchasing it in 2016. My most recent start over, my last was a year ago. The storyline had become more in-depth and substantially filled out from just a year ago when I finished by jumping through the center of the galaxy.
I'm loving playing this game on PSVR2. Its launch for PSVR2 was rough with really low resolution but they added dynamic foveated rendering and now it is perfectly sharp and one of if not the best looking game on PSVR2. Simply amazing. Looking forward to many more hours in my headset
Played since February 2020 and still going. Game is amazing, with all the updates and next gen performance on the PS5, it's incredible. I'm still discovering new things while I explore.
I just bought no man's sky for me and for my son like two months ago and it's amazing, hope they keep updating it. A really good game that I intend to play for a good couple of years.
Enjoy it, my son and I been playing together for the past 5 years on it way more chill playing this than gta 5. Definitely one of our favorite father and son activities 😊
I remember hearing about this game back around when it came out, but I never got round to playing it. Just bought it deciding I'm gonna check out some new games and seems like I'm joining at about the right time, even after 8 years
Given the numerous times I go off track and do my own thing that has nothing to do with the game, even in games where it doesn't allow things like that, I think I'll try out this game. Also seeing the reviews going from mostly negative to mostly positive over the years is tempting me, especially with the spring sale on steam going on right now.
Started playing for the first time today. Fixed my ship and decided to explore the planet a little before leaving. I found a structure and got a quest, I guess? Follow the marker to a ball, pick it up, alert comes up, sprint to my ship, take off, sentinels are shooting at me. First combat experience in the game. I killed two of them, but I didn't know how many waves were coming or if it ever stopped, so I flew into space for the first time and died. now I'm on a space station, I guess.
"so I flew into space for the first time and died" That's basically impossible in NMS even on the hardest settings unless you did something really stupid repeatedly, or ran into a strange bug.
bro i opened the universe map and i was blown away , endless game bro xD i dont have time to explore this ! wish i was in 2020 PANDEMIC! this game is awesome so far. i got into it yesterday at 20:00, when i checked the clock was 01:00 in a fraction of time. its very complex, but i will give it a go, more than Red dead redemption 2
As a note, the latest, massive, complete overhaul update - for free! Always for free! - was the 28th one so far. And it is 'part one' of two. Basically, No Man's Sky has released, for free, it's own sequels multiple times. That IS unheard of.
I feel like alot of new players are coming tbh I want to make a little post here with a couple money making method for early game. Nothing to crazy op as I don't want spoil the game for you its nice to discover stuff. But heres a couple easy things you can do. 1. Find a planet with ancient bone burial sites. Get a decent speedy pet and go and collect them. They show up with a gold icon similer to salvaged data. While using the scanner some are worth 1.8 mill most are worth 100k to 250k. 2. Collect storm Crystal's potentially . From extreme storm planets. If your goner do this also make sure your buying materials from galatic terminals and other aliens. Theres alot of materials you can buy very cheap to save you hassle later :) as it will drain your hazard protection fast. Worth about 250 k each. 3. Goto a planet with gravinto balls. They will be everywhere and close by. you will likely get attacked by sentinals don't worry just ignore them keep collecting gravtino balls keep running along. After about 20 minutes your goner make about 2.8 million from collecting these easily. Build bases at the planets with these sellables. even if there just small outposts. And then you can teleport to those planets with the goal of collecting those items and it's another rewarding gameplay loop. Which adds another kinder mission you can do. Maybe you can search for the oldest fossil worth the most and keep it as treasure. Maybe there are fossils worth more then 1.8 mill I haven't found yet.
Now that we have high-end ai, it would be great to see a system where interactive npcs are generated with randomly generated quest according to their generated story, and also something similar to what matrix did, where you can interact with every npc through mics and interact like its real life.
Thank you for that - Sincerely. 🙏🏾 I've never really checked it out & just figured it must be a dead game by now. But after seeing "This" - I'm sold. Preciate it man. I'm buying it tonight. 🤝🏾
this game review made me buy the game. it's currently 50% off in PS Store until the 12th of June, this year. i'm so glad i watched this during the sale 💙
As someone who plays the VR version, it's really cool. I feel like I'm genuinely piloting the ship since I move my hands to use it. I'm not very far in so I've only landed on one planet, but yeah it's insane.
@@dennisphillips9089Tried it and went back, due to long sessions in one go - it’s just not viable that way for me. Great experience for short-bursts however :)
Yeah but when you approach the planet it gets swapped for a completely different one. If they at least tried to make the fake planet in space similar to the one it will load when you get closer, or has that changed in the last 3 years?
SO glad i waited patiently and now in 2024 i just got it on its first good sale on the AUS/NZ e shop that aligned with my financial situation lol, for 60% off so i paid about 21 US$ (30 Aussie) for the Deluxe Version w any/all DLC
Very informative compared to some other channels I could mention who go way over the top etc lol Will have to get back into this again. Thanks for sharing mate 👍
I decided to platinum it after my brother in law did it, the first playthrough had a guide to do it relatively easily, the second permadeath playthrough was totally different with crafting required lol It was jarring but doable, a shortcut was possible with a certain character appearing at a space station but sods law they appeared near the end of the long way of doing it 😆
I named a planet "Bethesda" and blew it up. Orange planet bad. But seriously, folks. I called Bethesda for their answer to NMS superior design. They told me "loading please wait" until they could come up with an answer. I get no re-entry, no re-entry at all.
No Man's Sky has actually been in a good place for a while now. That being said, players don't spend all that long in it before they have seen "everything". There are a limited number of buildings, planets, ships, weapons, and so on. Expeditions do a good job of adding enough content for a new run every few months, though.
@@JD99-zj3gq I totally agree. The game lacks long-term goals. Unless you are a creative type or like to build huge structures, all the accomplishments can be finished in a few hours.
@@DrewBoivie Yep, and that wouldn't be a problem, if the things you can do would give you a lot of freedom, but you don't have that freedom. Take for example the new update that allows you to build a ship. Well, it's not really "building" when you can only build with like 6 parts, right? On top of that, all the ships will still generally look the same as a result, so there is really no incentive to spend much time on it. There is also a lot of stuff added to the game that artificially stretches the length of the game. The fact that you need 5,000 nanites just to buy a new color for your freight is a good example of that. But the biggest problem I have with No Man's Sky is the lack of quality of life updates. I've been playing PC games for about 40 years, and I can say an IBM certified interface designer, that this game has one of the worse user interfaces I ever came across for PC users.... by far. I'm not kidding when I say that I could write a book about it. The game itself is quite enjoyably however, but in my opinion it does quickly go stale.
That's really interesting - as someone who bounced off NMS at release because it was quintillions of planets wide but the gameplay was as shallow as a teaspoon, it sounds like they've continued to go wider and wider with more different activities and subsystems for players to engage with, but without really adding much more *depth* to the game at any point. It kind of looks like that perennial problem with procedurally generated games that it's easy to infinitely generate _content_ , but really hard to generate _meaning_ or _variety_ for any of it... and without meaning and meaningful variety even infinite content quickly gets stale and boring. It would be amazing what would be possible if NMS managed to add any kind of emergent narrative to the game, instead of packing the toolbox more and more full of pretty but simplistic and quickly-played-out toys.
There was a game called Star Bound that my cousin showed me that had crafting and the ability to build your own ship and travel around the universe, exploring different planets and such. A side scrolling game. I loved the general idea but never played it yet. I brought it up recently how I loved the idea of crafting your own ship and exploring space, and he said " No Mans Sky ". Thus, why im here
Just got into NMS on PSVR2, after owning it around a year after it launched. Visually it’s very impressive, in some ways the most arresting PSVR2 title available. They really did properly convert it for VR, and not just keep stick and button inputs. Gameplay systems wise it’s still a little obtuse, but given the depth, that’s probably unavoidable in some respects.
just got it september 2024 for 30 AUD or like 21 USDollars and couldnt be happier, i waited a few yrs once i heard it was getting better, then got lost in FC24 (after all the legacy FIFA games they added the frostbite engine) also im a sucker for Switch Sports and the remastered THPS1+2/Bioshock/Burnout Paradise but it just hit 60%off so downloading now!
oh and all the mk8dx dlc had me hella distracted cuz i honestly like the DLC tracks more since u get 3 original laps instead of one over and over and now i cant go back hahah hot take i know)
3 weeks in and loving it. Exploration is my favourite thing to do in a game and nms is great for that. It is a steep learning curve, you just have to take it slow and enjoy not knowing wtf is going on for a while, It all becomes clearer eventually and it's a great ride. As for the combat, never cared much about it. Pew pew, things are dead, hopefully not you. Satisfying in a way but no depth to it, imo.
I'm still really enjoying it. There's s much to learn and do, I feel as if I haven't really scratched the surface. I"m learning a lot from the Omega expedition - it introduces you to a lot of the key aspects of the game, including some I hadn''t experienced yet. It can be a bit frustrating, but on the whole it's fun. As for exploration, the incentive is the exploration itself - so many different interesting worlds. I found a frothing planet yesterday and acquired a companion in the form of a large colourful bubble that leaks red goo as it floats beside you - very bizarre and also cool. I could wish the base building interface was a bit easier to use but I'm coping with it. Why do you ask - are you wanting to get into it?
@@SilverBrumby165 I watched this beginners guide video and I really like metal mining and crafting at the start. It is very interesting. I have been wanting to get the game but always postponed it, as I enjoyed Empyrion Galactic Survival more as it had prettier planets in my eyes! I put in 400+ hours before uninstalling this year with a heavy heart... It was my favorite space survival game . Loved exploring planets, building bases, designing ground hover vessels, space crafts and large capital vessels. But I felt its time had come. When Starfield launched, I was excited and I thought of playing it as a sandbox game - forget bout the quests, faction stuff and just role play as a scientist by scanning, surveying and exploring planets. Build some small outposts in planets I like to satisfy my crafting, decorating addiction and keep exploring and surveying planets. But the lack of in atmosphere flight and ground vehicles completely destroyed my interest. Now I'm really thinking bout No Man's Sky. I enjoy mining, crafting, base building, flying ships etc. So I guess its worth trying No Mans Sky! Your review helped. Thank dude!
Pretty fun game tbh glad they at least made it as good as originally promised. I'm glad I waited until now to play it because I'm loving the game.
3 หลายเดือนก่อน
I’ve played it since launch and i love it definitely top 5 games on my list but its missing a lot of key aspects like villages, traders and other form of civilisations on the planets. The customisation for your character and ships is amazing but i would really love for them to add more.
NMs also has a weird, and somewhat innovative feature. Technically, its always online. However unless you're with someone or in the Space Anomoly, it is toggled off by the game itself. Then you can almost seamlessly transition from offline to on simply by entering the Anomaly, or finding others (which you're probably not gunna do unless you're in an expedition)
I just started playing and not even going to lie, I play the expeditions more than my primary save. I find that having objectives that gives good rewards is actually pretty fun. Also trying to get that cool ship at the end is worth it.
It’s been more than what they promised for years now. This game’s transformation has been nothing short of beautiful and amazing to experience first hand. It’s rare to be rewarded like this for sticking with a game that had a poor launch. Especially one that doesn’t have any microtransactions or monetization/Paid DLC of any kind. And the game is still growing. Hello Games deserves the gaming community’s attention and respect for not only delivering what they had promised but still to this day surpassing the original sales pitches and ads. While there is still issues and things that can be improved upon in the game, mainly it’s lack of depth in a lot of it’s core systems and mechanics, the game ultimately is such a joy to play. Very relaxing, fun space exploration with a good storyline and really cool building mechanics. So much to earn and unlock in the game and discover. Out of the pure space exploration games I’ve played, this is hands down my favorite. I love this game.
might have to get into it finally. my AA sponsor plays it and he's 20 years older than me, lol. I'll give it a shot. Seems like it takes a lot of time and investment though.
I guess its time to jump back into (as my wife calls it) No woman's Guy. I preordered 3 special editions cases thinking I could sell them after it was a hit. Needless to say I gave them away to friends, but don't regret it as Shawn deserves every penny for all the free updates.
The game has been what they promised for a few years now actually -- everything since the Next update has just been extra frosting on the cake lol. Can't wait to see what they do with Light No Fire now that they've learned many lessons and proven they can match their ambition with execution.
Yeah over the years it’s been one of hell of a ride and they’ve done so much to build their universe up around us (for free which is mind blowing) but I do have one slight issue 8 years in the making…why can I still not paint my starship?????
I have put 200 hours into this game, which while small-fry to some, for me that is a hell of a lot. I picked it up recently just because I noticed the cover art had changed and I was blown away by how much more polished it is. I know there is a lot more gameplay & things to do but its was the performance & the beauty of the menu screens that caught my eye. I like that I can look at all my discoveries and find planets that I have discovered ranked by deepest ocean, most beautiful etc. I noticed a breeding system for pets, new cosmetics and an absolute shit ton of stuff. I never liked how NPCs looked in this game. I still don't but maybe that is because of my bias towards a certain style of space game, but No Man's sky is certainly unique and has a unique charm and as ugly as the NPC and races are, they certainly have lore and everything which makes them interesting.
Great to hear you liked the video! The song that starts at 1:00 is 'Memory Card Full - Birocratic' - from the TH-cam audio library, although you may be able to find it somewhere else.
I started last week. Now i have 20 Hours played, and i am still in the Beginner Star System. I enjoy every Minute! :-) After playing 2300 Hours of Elite Dangerous, this is nice and Calm.
@@KamleshMallick the Experience was pleasant. I got to the next galaxy, and i had my first expedition. I am now at 300 hours of gameplay. I think that I will have a additional 100 hours until my interest will go down. That game is great, but it lacks some stuff that I need to play more than 1000 hours.
@@Knautschfriese Holy madre! You have 300 hours in one month!!!!! That is insane! I watched a beginners guide video and I really like metal mining and crafting at the start.

Been playing and loving this game since launch but I kind of wish I was a new player so I could experience the whole thing for the first time in its current state. Still love playing it though, VR is amazing.
About to hop back in after a long break, as was working on getting the carrier in ED (which I am already bored with a few weeks after purchasing the huge boat…) and immersing myself in the expanded SC gameplay loops (that very early alpha/tech demo has certainly increased development velocity recently and looks as though it will continue to do so…). Hopefully my settlement is still standing and has not been overrun by sentinels… Looking forward to exploring the new content (if any).
It actually pulls at my heart strings. Especially after watching that Internet Historian engoodening video. I want everything for this game because the developers deserve it.
So, what's the point of the game? Going around and exploring, or are there guilds and other players that make planetary empires to conquer? And they have an economy that can collapse for both players if the war is tll prolonged
@@George_Vibxs even between switch and PS4? That's great if so! I had a load of people coming at me for saying it was cross with switch when the video first came out! 🤣
I bought the game for my brother and I to play at launch, we had got so let down and never played more than a few hours. I still have the disc, thinking aobut popping it in again haha.
Same with me, I bought the game at launch and played it for about a week then stopped. But after seeing this about the updates, im thinking about giving it a try again..!!!!
Is there any goal to achieve in this game or is it just a space mincraft without the ability to beat the game in anyway? Just curious, because i've asked my brother what the purpose of the game was and he said he didn't know because he hadn't played much yet. He still doesn't know and he's played more now.
It's a sandbox. You do what you want to do. You can focus on base building, or try to max your ship and multi tool, or max your reputation with factions, or play the different questlines. But there isn't a single final objective, and everything is optional.
There is a main storyline that you can choose to follow or not (and *finish*). I haven't done it yet, but I've kinda had it spoiled for me, so I won't do the same to you.
"googling how to make stuff" is anything but a selling point for me. I loathe the fact that many games require me to go out of the game to understand how to play it.

Feel same...after 1200 hours. Since Oktober after the patch for PSVR2 only in VR..its such an escape

That’s why I’m here
here to tell you a new update has dropped! dynamic oceans, new planets, ships can land on water now!
I love it when developers actively update and improve on their games, especially games that didn't initially turn out the way they wanted. It really shows that they care about the game and the community.
Agreed!
This is exactly what happened to Diablo 3 and Diablo 4. Initial end game was trash, and now they are exceptional with awesome, addicting end gameplay.
Fr it's honestly the gift that keeps on giving
Cyberpunk 2077 is a good example of this.

So you can imagine how things went when the second planet I visited in the tutorial, the planet with the distress beacon where you learn base building, had aggressive sentinel drones over every single hill. I play in vr, so despite the the fact that I was getting destroyed, it was pretty cool
NMS in VR - after playing it for literally years - is the first game to ever make me laugh out loud. Seeing everything in 3D was just mind blowing to me.
Can't imagine what it's like to drive the mech in vr
@@callum4796 I wouldn’t know because I haven’t progressed that far yet 😅
@@Roundtablist It honestly terrifies me. Went to some water planet and watched in amazement and disbelief as some worm thing pops out the ocean and over me.
This is me all over about to start diving on vr
No mans sky is fun when you first start with little to no resource's and small amount of c class upgrades then you upgrade and build your empire and exploration status expands. Highly addictive.
That's so awesome to see how far the game's been upgraded since I last played back in 2019/2020. I'd love to see the text become narrated, even AI narration could be a big improvement for some1 like me. Also, please add more cinematic cut scenes, + improve the ground combat
80 hours in…might just be the best space game ever made. Great video.
Starfield ?
Until Starfield.
Starfield is good but it's missing a lot of elements NMS has already @@Rykker
Starfield is trash man.@@TheMusicolophile
@@TheMusicolophile since starfield. Starfield made us see that it was even better than it already was
One of the greatest comeback stories of all time, can't wait to try it on psvr2
30 hours still learning is so true. I just recently played NMS, and as Destiny 2 player, I fell in love instantly. Im only 70 hours in, and I'm just building impressive bases, and I've only visited 2 galaxies!. I love anything that has space travel and rare environments. Besides RDR2 and Control, this is one of the best games I've ever played. I've literally just recently learned about exo crafts and underwater exploration. W game for real.
I played the game at launch, and never before had I played a game that made me feel more alone or bored lmao. Then I played again when they added the first exocrafts, and vibe still felt off. I gave it some time and just started playing again with the Omega update... The game is now insanely addicting, fun, never feels lonely, beautiful... It's my dream space exploration game by taking these awesome space tropes, and not following the cliche or copying it at all. It's so unique and a dream. The fact that there's like 90 different gameplay loops allows for genuinely limitless playability. Also the combat reworks feel really good, the upgrades and especially space combat are something amazing. The combat still isn't perfect but it genuinely feels like a gameplay aspect now. The fact that I can become a space pirate and experience these massive battles, is incredible considering that they're so fun, and barely 1% of the game.
Your comment convinced me to give this game a try. I was soo waiting for starfield, but that game looks really boring, so i decided to skip that game, to see if they fix alot the coming year.
So after your comment i decided to try No mans sky.
Looks like this game has everything i am looking for in a space expl game.
@@Guilliano_B wow, I'm kinda flattered that you felt my review was that moving lol. I hope you enjoy it the same way I do, the game is amazing, definitely still feels live service, and the devs come out with consistent updates that add some game changing stuff. I was kinda mad at hello games at launch, but now they've definitely proven it's a labor of love...
The sheer change in No Man's Sky at release vs now is just mind boggling. I got the game either shortly before or after the Pathfinder update, and while I did still like it back then, it's a monumentally different game now. Just the fact that Hello Games was able to shift NMS from one of the most reviled and hated games in modern gaming history into one of the most popular and beloved sci-fi titles ever is just nothing short of a blessing from the gods.
I love this game and have been playing for over a year now, but we need more combat or better combat
Especially ADS
I'd personally think a metroid-esque approach to the derelict freighters would really make them fun. The spookiness kinda goes away when you learn nothing in there is really that scary or tough. Fighting a big boss at the end would be so worth it.
Starfield takes care of that!
@@TheMusicolophilebro is in all the replies being a starfield fanboy lol, the game is ass
@@alissahasded158 yeah exactly
I truly truly hope they continue updating this single game and keep it up indefinitely all the way into the next gen of systems to which they can update it even more. I have some problems with the game buuuuuut it's an amazing accomplishment when you realize how vast the universe is and the potential for future updates. Putting on Pandora and flying through space is such a joy.
I would somewhat disagree that every planet feels unique. You realize after a while that each planet type has only a few potential looks. You know roughly what shape of rocks/plants to expect when landing on a radioactive planet, for example.
You also know what to expect in terms of points of interest. They are the same on every planet, with the exception of dead planets and uninhabited systems.
Don't get me wrong, there is still a large amount of exploring before the planets become repetitive, and even then you can still stumble on something particularly unique.
I agree. Same thing for toxic flora for example. They look almost the same everywhere. I wish they’d add more diversity in buildings
True, for sure. I mean, the land masses and color schemes and environmental hazards and flora/fauna are kinda mixed and shuffled, but essentially, I'd say before you hit 100 hours, you're not gonna see a whole lot of new stuff that's totally unique. There's still a ton of variety, and they do a decent job of mixing and matching, though. And in spite of some very similar stuff, quite a bit of it is really impressive-looking, especially the first time you really start getting into it and exploring. I say all the time, I've never taken so many screenshots in a single game EVER!! They all make REALLY cool desktop backgrounds.
@@DarthMohammedRules totally agreed man!
@@DarthMohammedRules
Do you have an incentive to explore like you visit specific planets or moons for specific resources or blueprints or you just keep landing and looking
Worlds: Part 1 is rapidly approaching your location.
A genuine heartwarming story about a man and a dream falling and getting back up
This is a great short overview of how good No Mans Sky is I have friends I have recommended the game now I have something to show them that isn't several videos or an hour long. Thank you!
Glad I could help!
I bought NMS on PS when it first came out. I cannot believe how much it's changed since then. I built a PC recently and I think I'm gonna buy it again. Can't wait to see how it looks on my beast of a pc!
I have started over multiple times since purchasing it in 2016. My most recent start over, my last was a year ago. The storyline had become more in-depth and substantially filled out from just a year ago when I finished by jumping through the center of the galaxy.
Surprisingly fun! After playing Palworld, I'm having fun.
I'm loving playing this game on PSVR2. Its launch for PSVR2 was rough with really low resolution but they added dynamic foveated rendering and now it is perfectly sharp and one of if not the best looking game on PSVR2. Simply amazing. Looking forward to many more hours in my headset
Enjoy your headset while we are out here actually living real life in the reality of the outdoors.

Played since February 2020 and still going. Game is amazing, with all the updates and next gen performance on the PS5, it's incredible. I'm still discovering new things while I explore.
iv playied since launch, always been a great , fun game
I just bought no man's sky for me and for my son like two months ago and it's amazing, hope they keep updating it.
A really good game that I intend to play for a good couple of years.
Enjoy it, my son and I been playing together for the past 5 years on it way more chill playing this than gta 5. Definitely one of our favorite father and son activities 😊
I remember hearing about this game back around when it came out, but I never got round to playing it. Just bought it deciding I'm gonna check out some new games and seems like I'm joining at about the right time, even after 8 years
how is it? thinking about getting it
Given the numerous times I go off track and do my own thing that has nothing to do with the game, even in games where it doesn't allow things like that, I think I'll try out this game. Also seeing the reviews going from mostly negative to mostly positive over the years is tempting me, especially with the spring sale on steam going on right now.
Definitely worth a try!
Subscribed because of the novel approach to timing. Also, it’s a great video
Thank you!!
Started playing for the first time today. Fixed my ship and decided to explore the planet a little before leaving. I found a structure and got a quest, I guess? Follow the marker to a ball, pick it up, alert comes up, sprint to my ship, take off, sentinels are shooting at me. First combat experience in the game. I killed two of them, but I didn't know how many waves were coming or if it ever stopped, so I flew into space for the first time and died. now I'm on a space station, I guess.
Epic confusion as well 😮
Some people play the game, others get played
"so I flew into space for the first time and died"
That's basically impossible in NMS even on the hardest settings unless you did something really stupid repeatedly, or ran into a strange bug.
bro i opened the universe map and i was blown away , endless game bro xD i dont have time to explore this ! wish i was in 2020 PANDEMIC! this game is awesome so far. i got into it yesterday at 20:00, when i checked the clock was 01:00 in a fraction of time. its very complex, but i will give it a go, more than Red dead redemption 2
As a note, the latest, massive, complete overhaul update - for free! Always for free! - was the 28th one so far. And it is 'part one' of two. Basically, No Man's Sky has released, for free, it's own sequels multiple times. That IS unheard of.
As a new, veteran player. I 100% agree and I’m only 10hrs in on ps5
I feel like alot of new players are coming tbh I want to make a little post here with a couple money making method for early game. Nothing to crazy op as I don't want spoil the game for you its nice to discover stuff. But heres a couple easy things you can do.
1. Find a planet with ancient bone burial sites. Get a decent speedy pet and go and collect them. They show up with a gold icon similer to salvaged data. While using the scanner some are worth 1.8 mill most are worth 100k to 250k.
2. Collect storm Crystal's potentially . From extreme storm planets. If your goner do this also make sure your buying materials from galatic terminals and other aliens. Theres alot of materials you can buy very cheap to save you hassle later :) as it will drain your hazard protection fast. Worth about 250 k each.
3. Goto a planet with gravinto balls. They will be everywhere and close by. you will likely get attacked by sentinals don't worry just ignore them keep collecting gravtino balls keep running along. After about 20 minutes your goner make about 2.8 million from collecting these easily.
Build bases at the planets with these sellables. even if there just small outposts. And then you can teleport to those planets with the goal of collecting those items and it's another rewarding gameplay loop. Which adds another kinder mission you can do. Maybe you can search for the oldest fossil worth the most and keep it as treasure. Maybe there are fossils worth more then 1.8 mill I haven't found yet.
Interesting suggestions. Thanks
Do you have an incentive to explore?
Now that we have high-end ai, it would be great to see a system where interactive npcs are generated with randomly generated quest according to their generated story, and also something similar to what matrix did, where you can interact with every npc through mics and interact like its real life.
Thank you for that - Sincerely. 🙏🏾
I've never really checked it out & just figured it must be a dead game by now.
But after seeing "This" - I'm sold.
Preciate it man. I'm buying it tonight. 🤝🏾
Nice review, on top of everything else you mentioned there is a full vr mode available
One of the best VR games I've ever played. Piloting the ships and getting into dogfights with pirates is immersive and satisfying
Nah no one will notice its 2023…
🤫Let's just hope they don't update the game in the next 7 days....
I just started playing and love it
Someone does know it's almost 2024 in a few days.
@@ajaxmalomimbyI asked for it for Christmas and did not get it 😔
@@brokendream_zz6720sorry fam i also had a awful christmas 😞
this game review made me buy the game. it's currently 50% off in PS Store until the 12th of June, this year. i'm so glad i watched this during the sale 💙
Imagine what it's like to approach a planet and land on it while playing in VR. It must be crazy!
I have over 3500 hrs in VR. Once tried you will never go back to flat screen.
As someone who plays the VR version, it's really cool. I feel like I'm genuinely piloting the ship since I move my hands to use it. I'm not very far in so I've only landed on one planet, but yeah it's insane.
the controls are so hard to master best vr ever
@@dennisphillips9089Tried it and went back, due to long sessions in one go - it’s just not viable that way for me. Great experience for short-bursts however :)
Yeah but when you approach the planet it gets swapped for a completely different one. If they at least tried to make the fake planet in space similar to the one it will load when you get closer, or has that changed in the last 3 years?
SO glad i waited patiently and now in 2024 i just got it on its first good sale on the AUS/NZ e shop that aligned with my financial situation lol, for 60% off so i paid about 21 US$ (30 Aussie) for the Deluxe Version w any/all DLC
Very informative compared to some other channels I could mention who go way over the top etc lol
Will have to get back into this again.
Thanks for sharing mate 👍
@@Classicgamer73 Great to hear! 👊
I decided to platinum it after my brother in law did it, the first playthrough had a guide to do it relatively easily, the second permadeath playthrough was totally different with crafting required lol It was jarring but doable, a shortcut was possible with a certain character appearing at a space station but sods law they appeared near the end of the long way of doing it 😆
I named a planet "Bethesda" and blew it up. Orange planet bad. But seriously, folks. I called Bethesda for their answer to NMS superior design. They told me "loading please wait" until they could come up with an answer. I get no re-entry, no re-entry at all.
No Man's Sky has actually been in a good place for a while now.
That being said, players don't spend all that long in it before they have seen "everything".
There are a limited number of buildings, planets, ships, weapons, and so on.
Expeditions do a good job of adding enough content for a new run every few months, though.
There is not much to do once you got a good starship, freighter and base, unless you like to do the same stuff over and over again.
@@JD99-zj3gq I totally agree. The game lacks long-term goals. Unless you are a creative type or like to build huge structures, all the accomplishments can be finished in a few hours.
@@DrewBoivie Yep, and that wouldn't be a problem, if the things you can do would give you a lot of freedom, but you don't have that freedom. Take for example the new update that allows you to build a ship. Well, it's not really "building" when you can only build with like 6 parts, right? On top of that, all the ships will still generally look the same as a result, so there is really no incentive to spend much time on it.
There is also a lot of stuff added to the game that artificially stretches the length of the game. The fact that you need 5,000 nanites just to buy a new color for your freight is a good example of that.
But the biggest problem I have with No Man's Sky is the lack of quality of life updates. I've been playing PC games for about 40 years, and I can say an IBM certified interface designer, that this game has one of the worse user interfaces I ever came across for PC users.... by far. I'm not kidding when I say that I could write a book about it. The game itself is quite enjoyably however, but in my opinion it does quickly go stale.
That's really interesting - as someone who bounced off NMS at release because it was quintillions of planets wide but the gameplay was as shallow as a teaspoon, it sounds like they've continued to go wider and wider with more different activities and subsystems for players to engage with, but without really adding much more *depth* to the game at any point.
It kind of looks like that perennial problem with procedurally generated games that it's easy to infinitely generate _content_ , but really hard to generate _meaning_ or _variety_ for any of it... and without meaning and meaningful variety even infinite content quickly gets stale and boring.
It would be amazing what would be possible if NMS managed to add any kind of emergent narrative to the game, instead of packing the toolbox more and more full of pretty but simplistic and quickly-played-out toys.
@jamespalmer9033 the game has actually added a LOT of depth and TONS of variety especially recently
One of my FAVOURITE games to play. I just don't play it as much anymore because I barely have anyone to explore the open world with
Made me buy the game it's currently 15 quid seems worth it
ngl I need this don't know where I've been for the past 8 years
There was a game called Star Bound that my cousin showed me that had crafting and the ability to build your own ship and travel around the universe, exploring different planets and such. A side scrolling game. I loved the general idea but never played it yet. I brought it up recently how I loved the idea of crafting your own ship and exploring space, and he said " No Mans Sky ". Thus, why im here
What this really needs is mechanics in debris to make things fall when you dig a hole and leave bits floating. Buildings could just break into rubble.
What a game,and Dec's are not letting the community down with still active support
I started playing the game when it came out, I always found it fun. i like where they took it
Just got into NMS on PSVR2, after owning it around a year after it launched.
Visually it’s very impressive, in some ways the most arresting PSVR2 title available. They really did properly convert it for VR, and not just keep stick and button inputs.
Gameplay systems wise it’s still a little obtuse, but given the depth, that’s probably unavoidable in some respects.
just got it september 2024 for 30 AUD or like 21 USDollars and couldnt be happier, i waited a few yrs once i heard it was getting better, then got lost in FC24 (after all the legacy FIFA games they added the frostbite engine) also im a sucker for Switch Sports and the remastered THPS1+2/Bioshock/Burnout Paradise but it just hit 60%off so downloading now!
oh and all the mk8dx dlc had me hella distracted cuz i honestly like the DLC tracks more since u get 3 original laps instead of one over and over and now i cant go back hahah hot take i know)
3 weeks in and loving it. Exploration is my favourite thing to do in a game and nms is great for that. It is a steep learning curve, you just have to take it slow and enjoy not knowing wtf is going on for a while, It all becomes clearer eventually and it's a great ride. As for the combat, never cared much about it. Pew pew, things are dead, hopefully not you. Satisfying in a way but no depth to it, imo.
Absolutely!
How has your experience been?
It’s been a month?
Are you enjoying visiting planets? Do you have an incentive to explore?
I'm still really enjoying it. There's s much to learn and do, I feel as if I haven't really scratched the surface. I"m learning a lot from the Omega expedition - it introduces you to a lot of the key aspects of the game, including some I hadn''t experienced yet. It can be a bit frustrating, but on the whole it's fun. As for exploration, the incentive is the exploration itself - so many different interesting worlds. I found a frothing planet yesterday and acquired a companion in the form of a large colourful bubble that leaks red goo as it floats beside you - very bizarre and also cool. I could wish the base building interface was a bit easier to use but I'm coping with it. Why do you ask - are you wanting to get into it?
@@SilverBrumby165 I watched this beginners guide video and I really like metal mining and crafting at the start. It is very interesting.
I have been wanting to get the game but always postponed it, as I enjoyed Empyrion Galactic Survival more as it had prettier planets in my eyes! I put in 400+ hours before uninstalling this year with a heavy heart... It was my favorite space survival game . Loved exploring planets, building bases, designing ground hover vessels, space crafts and large capital vessels. But I felt its time had come.
When Starfield launched, I was excited and I thought of playing it as a sandbox game - forget bout the quests, faction stuff and just role play as a scientist by scanning, surveying and exploring planets. Build some small outposts in planets I like to satisfy my crafting, decorating addiction and keep exploring and surveying planets. But the lack of in atmosphere flight and ground vehicles completely destroyed my interest.
Now I'm really thinking bout No Man's Sky.
I enjoy mining, crafting, base building, flying ships etc. So I guess its worth trying No Mans Sky! Your review helped. Thank dude!
@@KamleshMallick Get the game. You'll love it. It also has the best community of any game.
Pretty fun game tbh glad they at least made it as good as originally promised. I'm glad I waited until now to play it because I'm loving the game.
I’ve played it since launch and i love it definitely top 5 games on my list but its missing a lot of key aspects like villages, traders and other form of civilisations on the planets. The customisation for your character and ships is amazing but i would really love for them to add more.
Lovely, soo accurate and good video
NMs also has a weird, and somewhat innovative feature. Technically, its always online. However unless you're with someone or in the Space Anomoly, it is toggled off by the game itself. Then you can almost seamlessly transition from offline to on simply by entering the Anomaly, or finding others (which you're probably not gunna do unless you're in an expedition)
My son and I are making a way through a relaxed game, but its still challenging.
I just started playing particularly on the PSVR2 - its incredible, really loving it so far!
I just started playing and not even going to lie, I play the expeditions more than my primary save. I find that having objectives that gives good rewards is actually pretty fun. Also trying to get that cool ship at the end is worth it.
It’s been more than what they promised for years now. This game’s transformation has been nothing short of beautiful and amazing to experience first hand. It’s rare to be rewarded like this for sticking with a game that had a poor launch. Especially one that doesn’t have any microtransactions or monetization/Paid DLC of any kind. And the game is still growing. Hello Games deserves the gaming community’s attention and respect for not only delivering what they had promised but still to this day surpassing the original sales pitches and ads.
While there is still issues and things that can be improved upon in the game, mainly it’s lack of depth in a lot of it’s core systems and mechanics, the game ultimately is such a joy to play. Very relaxing, fun space exploration with a good storyline and really cool building mechanics. So much to earn and unlock in the game and discover.
Out of the pure space exploration games I’ve played, this is hands down my favorite. I love this game.
Looking forward to Light No Fire from these guys
I've been loving NMS since The Next patch came out. I think nms has been what we wanted since then. Now it's just perfection.
ur right when you said cutting the game some slack in the beginning will make the game more enjoyable later on
What's your ronin looking cosmetic at the intro? Been playing for 20 hours and loving it!
I have a feeling the clip you are talking about is one from the update trailer...so I couldn't tell you, sorry!
Just started playing it. I was loving it until i hear the backstory of the devs and the game. Now, i love it even more
I bought this game shortly after release..like a week or two after release...I guess I will look into playing this in the near future
One cool feature is learning alien languages. The fact that that's optional is for real insane.
I play this game still all the time in VR its SO fun n immersive
might have to get into it finally. my AA sponsor plays it and he's 20 years older than me, lol. I'll give it a shot. Seems like it takes a lot of time and investment though.
I haven’t played this since it came out, gonna try it out today
I bought the game and will be playing it later this week, but I wish they made the combat a bit more extensive, I like space combat
I guess its time to jump back into (as my wife calls it) No woman's Guy. I preordered 3 special editions cases thinking I could sell them after it was a hit. Needless to say I gave them away to friends, but don't regret it as Shawn deserves every penny for all the free updates.
The game has been what they promised for a few years now actually -- everything since the Next update has just been extra frosting on the cake lol. Can't wait to see what they do with Light No Fire now that they've learned many lessons and proven they can match their ambition with execution.
Started the game on permadeath, that is a hard learning curve.
Yeah over the years it’s been one of hell of a ride and they’ve done so much to build their universe up around us (for free which is mind blowing) but I do have one slight issue 8 years in the making…why can I still not paint my starship?????
This is a very good point...surely we will get a feature for this soon
Now you can! 😃
I picked this up new for PS5 for $20 on Amazon worth every penny!
I have put 200 hours into this game, which while small-fry to some, for me that is a hell of a lot. I picked it up recently just because I noticed the cover art had changed and I was blown away by how much more polished it is. I know there is a lot more gameplay & things to do but its was the performance & the beauty of the menu screens that caught my eye. I like that I can look at all my discoveries and find planets that I have discovered ranked by deepest ocean, most beautiful etc. I noticed a breeding system for pets, new cosmetics and an absolute shit ton of stuff.
I never liked how NPCs looked in this game. I still don't but maybe that is because of my bias towards a certain style of space game, but No Man's sky is certainly unique and has a unique charm and as ugly as the NPC and races are, they certainly have lore and everything which makes them interesting.
Just started playing, really enjoying the game so far, much better than Starfield. Great video as well!
@@FixMyBleep glad you hear you found the video useful!!

Been playing and loving this game since launch but I kind of wish I was a new player so I could experience the whole thing for the first time in its current state. Still love playing it though, VR is amazing.
happy new year guy
About to hop back in after a long break, as was working on getting the carrier in ED (which I am already bored with a few weeks after purchasing the huge boat…) and immersing myself in the expanded SC gameplay loops (that very early alpha/tech demo has certainly increased development velocity recently and looks as though it will continue to do so…). Hopefully my settlement is still standing and has not been overrun by sentinels… Looking forward to exploring the new content (if any).
It actually pulls at my heart strings. Especially after watching that Internet Historian engoodening video. I want everything for this game because the developers deserve it.
So, what's the point of the game? Going around and exploring, or are there guilds and other players that make planetary empires to conquer? And they have an economy that can collapse for both players if the war is tll prolonged
Nope.. Its literlally just walking around and collecting resources. No missions, no interaction with NPCs. Just walking and flying around.
@@smugdugYou haven’t even played the game and if you did, then you’d know that there’s way more than just walking and flying around.

I bought the game for my brother and I to play at launch, we had got so let down and never played more than a few hours. I still have the disc, thinking aobut popping it in again haha.
Same with me, I bought the game at launch and played it for about a week then stopped. But after seeing this about the updates, im thinking about giving it a try again..!!!!
Is there any goal to achieve in this game or is it just a space mincraft without the ability to beat the game in anyway? Just curious, because i've asked my brother what the purpose of the game was and he said he didn't know because he hadn't played much yet. He still doesn't know and he's played more now.
It's a sandbox. You do what you want to do. You can focus on base building, or try to max your ship and multi tool, or max your reputation with factions, or play the different questlines. But there isn't a single final objective, and everything is optional.
There is a main storyline that you can choose to follow or not (and *finish*). I haven't done it yet, but I've kinda had it spoiled for me, so I won't do the same to you.
"googling how to make stuff" is anything but a selling point for me. I loathe the fact that many games require me to go out of the game to understand how to play it.
I wish I could play it but it keeps on crashing
New huuuuge update is just out. And they are still not done.
Finally downloaded it from xbox few days ago. First time ever playing it, definitely unique little game. Seems smooth enough especially for Xbox one
