No Man's Sky

Great game it's not perfect but if you like exploring, finding fun creatures, spaceships, building, space, dog fights, playing with friends. This game is great, one of my favorites. The devs failed hard at launch but have really turned things around and made this, in my opinion, a great game! The only major issue I have is multiplayer on the GOG version of this game is not compatible with Steam. So you can't play together with Steam friends. But the game itself is amazing. I highly recommend this and look forward to any future updates.

Hello Games has done a very good job in redeeming this game. It was far from perfect at release but it has come a long way. I recommend a purchase, especially if you manage to pick it up on sale. The amount of free content that has been added makes it well worth it. I haven't noticed any major issues or performance issues. System Specs: GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 (8GB VRAM) Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz (12 CPUs), ~2.6GHz RAM: 16GB Storage: 1TB SSD

I got No Man´s Sky since day one on PS4, I never regret bought it, even if all that was promised and not acomplished during the launch, for me the game was an amazing flashback to game concepts like StarGlider II on Commodore Amiga, or Mercenary, for GOG users this should be more than enough to appreciate that Hello Games made in this game. Yes, the promises didn´t been accomplished, but they still push the hard work on their non polished jewel, and gave us with the years more than the promised, putting tons of love and hard work that you can feel on every inch, of this huge universe than promised, but finally accomplished even if step by step, being humble and realistic enough to launch the first version, with a game that can be enjoyed NOW with a bigger scope, instead of waiting games like Star Citizen that will never happen.

I bought NMS on Steam for half price in August of 2019, and I have almost 2k hours. I can't speak for those poor souls who bought this way back in the beginning. I can only imagine the disappointment and hurt they felt, and may still feel to this day. I do ask, as of right now, try it again? I don't mean just try it, I mean play through the story and long enough to get the exo-mech. You already own the game (for those that didn't get a refund) so a little bandwidth and a few hours of time won't hurt you. For those that did get a refund and still scorn this game, you should watch the streamers who are playing this game. Either way, I don't think you'll regret it. All that being said, just in the Beyond update there has been massive improvements and content additions. There are roughly 30 hours of base story missions, then another week or so until you get your living ship. The visuals are nothing short of breathtaking, and you'll WANT to explore the worlds! As far as PC specs, yes you need a decent video card that supports Vulkan since they moved away from OpenGL. I consider it a good move. Finally, I'll leave you with this. This game has taken a good majority of my time since I bought it. I can't say that about all the games I have, but I can about this one. I bought it at half price and consider it a steel.

Tried this when it first came out, and like most people i lost all interest within the first hour or so. Fast forward to the latest gog sale and i have now spent the last 3 days doing nothing but play this game and occationally feed the cat. Inspite of that i probably won't run out of new things to try anytime soon either. This has become a really amazing game that caters to a wide variety of playstyles with even more to come in future updates. The only negative i have found so far is that combat is way too easy across the board and eventually just becomes a repetative chore. It does not help that the primary enemy faction spawns in identical waves over and over while all hostile pilots and critters behave exactly the same.
