No Man's Sky was an unplayable mess when it was first rushed out into release two years ago. But the developers have since been hard at work listening to the community and actually delivering on their promises, culminating in the NEXT update which was released recently. I do curate my fair share of trusted game reviewers on Youtube, so I think I'm going to give this game a second chance since Mack from Worth a Buy is confidently giving it a thumbs up. Check out his review below:-

If you don't know anything about No Man's Sky, here are some of the features worth checking out even if you're not a gamer:-

  • It's an open-universe game with 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 life-sized planets and spaces in-between to explore.
  • Seamlessly travel anywhere in the universe with zero loading screens.
  • Proceduralism fine-tuned for fun and meaningful gameplay.

No Man's Sky is now on 50% discount til end of this month on multiple platforms, including Steam for the PC. Here's a small guide to this fresh new game on Polygon to get you up to speed. I'd probably try to stream this game when I have the time to do so! So far 2 hours into the game, I'd agree that it's much better now.


An off note: I've got quite a number of controversial but hopefully interesting blockchain-related posts coming up. It's been taking me a long time to write them, but I think I've landed on the "scoop of the century". So stay tuned and follow @kevinwong. As always, thanks for reading!

Sort:  

I might pick it up again then. I was super upset when it came out because I had fallen for all the hype and I stopped playing lol. I saw that there was something there but it felt like it was unfinished when they put it out.

I actually liked the game but it was a lot an invitory work. Lol they should have named it no mans invitory lol.

I made a review 6 days ago about no man sky if someone need some info about the game check it XD

I bought this on release for the PS4 and have been going back and forth every now and again to check out the 'new content'.

I have to give the developers credit, they ballsed up the initial release but have made up for it with all the patches. A friend of mine only last weekend mentioned a new patch was out yet again and he's back on it I see.

The combat needs to be improved and I just wish there were some 'Elite' style missions. It is an exploration game and not 'Elite', but thats what is lacking IMO.

I play a bit of hearthstone (well a lot of hearthstone, more then im willing to admit. Haha) which is my only contact with the gaming world and even i heard about the flop that was "No man plays this game". The rage was palpable.😂

i used to play that for one whole week. hope they have turbo mode by now, the card flipping animation etc was too slow lol

Haha. Thats quite an interesting critique. :D

My son bought this and was disappointed. I'll mention this to him and see if he will give it another go.

I saw this article about the developers. They were under a lot of pressure to meet deadlines.

Yeah it was an interesting gaming pr disaster lol, one for the text books

To be honest it is the first time I hear about this game. Looks promising actually but a little pricey I would say.

As for this...

Didn’t need to mention it at all my friend! I think those who don’t follow you are just on the wrong path. Your writings are always interesting and very informative. Probably belong among the elit of this platform!

Have a great day @kevinwong

Yea probably just wait out for some massive discount. Even checking out for a few hours is good enough.

Lol i've been on the wrong path too many times so becareful.

Never heard of it but you've got my attention although I'm a bit more intrigued with your "future scoop of the century?" Can't wait for that! Glad to see you writing more. I've always enjoyed your posts. I used to be a huge gamer but more so on xbox or play station then the kids came along and well not so much anymore. Love the idea of an open universe.. say what? I used to love the Assassin's creed and Skyrim games to the open concept but yours sounds so much BIGGER! Gotta have a look see............. enjoyed.

Not much to say about the game since I stopped playing video games a few years ago but I'm looking forward to these posts. Bring them on. :D

Beautiful review, my friend and one of the main innovations was the emergence of multiplayer in the game, now users can join in groups for the exploration of worlds. However, the developers are not going to stop there and have already shared their plans for the further development of the project. Soon after the release of the patch we are waiting for the first season with weekly events. This will be completely free content without any microtransactions. Also, the creators launched the site Galactic Atlas, which is devoted to the most interesting places represented in the No Man's Sky Galaxy. Thank you @kevinwong

I think No Man's Sky game would be really interesting. Off to play store.

If you suck at gaming just like me, gather here let's take selfie.
