Repetitive, nice visuals.
Repetitive and not very interesting. Nice visuals though.

No Man's Sky
Description
No Man's Sky: Breach update is here!
Inspired by the adventure and imagination that we love from classic science-fiction, No Man's Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with unique planets and lifeforms, and constant danger and action.
In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you'll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before - and perhaps never will again.
Now including...
Play with all major updates since launch: Foundation, Pathfinder, Atlas Rises, NEXT, The Abyss, Visions, the 2.0 BEYOND update, Synthesis, Living Ship, Exo Mech, Desolation and the 3.0 update, ORIGINS, Next Generation, Companions, Expeditions, Prisms, Frontiers, Sentinel, Outlaws, Endurance, Waypoint (4.0), Fractal, Interceptor, Echoes, Omega, Orbital, Worlds Part I (5.0), Worlds Part II, Relics, Beacon and VOYAGERS (6.0).
And now with added Cross-Save! No Man’s Sky now supports Cross-Play and Cross-Save between a huge number of platforms including PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, Xbox One and Series X/S, Game Pass, GOG, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, PlayStation VR 1 & 2 and PCVR.
Available for PC and Mac (see recommended and minimum specs for details).
An epic voyage to the centre of a shared universe awaits, allowing you to explore, trade, fight and survive alone or with friends.
Embark on an epic voyage
At the centre of the galaxy lies an irresistible pulse which draws you on a journey towards it to learn the true nature of the cosmos. But, facing hostile creatures and fierce pirates, you'll know that death comes at a cost, and survival will be down to the choices you make over how you upgrade your ship, your weapon and suit.
Find your own destiny
Your voyage through No Man's Sky is up to you. Will you be a fighter, preying on the weak and taking their riches, or taking out pirates for their bounties? Power is yours if you upgrade your ship for speed and weaponry.
Or a trader? Find rich resources on forgotten worlds and exploit them for the highest prices. Invest in more cargo space and you'll reap huge rewards.
Or perhaps an explorer? Go beyond the known frontier and discover places and things that no one has ever seen before. Upgrade your engines to jump ever farther, and strengthen your suit for survival in toxic environments that would kill the unwary.
Share your journey
The galaxy is a living, breathing place. Trade convoys travel between stars, factions vie for territory, pirates hunt the unwary, and the police are ever watching. Every other player lives in the same galaxy, and you can choose to share your discoveries with them on a map that spans known space. Perhaps you will see the results of their actions as well as your own...

Hello Games' lush galactic odyssey is a unique work of engineering art - and an engrossing, if flawed, game.

7.5/10
An inviting universe to explore and exploit, but not much story or gameplay backs up the unparalleled scope of the world

8/10
No Man's Sky is all about the pure joy of exploration. It will be a polarizing game that will prove unsatisfying for some gamers, but it offers a vibrant, Zen-like experience others will treasure.

it was good while it lasted
I was excited to say the least with promise of infinite universe and all that diversity that came along with it. I actually played it first on PS4 - sure frame rates were not that good with barely drawn landscape below you as you fly high speed, but it had something - enough to keep me interested for about a month. Then i had misfortune to read about great ending (not going spoil for those who did not read) and it kind of went downhill. It would be a good indie game to be sure. just not enough content in it for a full blow game, not even with DLC. I guess people including me expected more "bang" for their buck. I still want to come back to it, but keep postponing it all this time. Probably would get second life as VR title though.

1.3 improves, but Hello is still short
A year on and the Atlas Rising update now installed into my game, it still runs as poorly as it did then. The gameplay has gotten a lot better, as I do feel like I have something to work toward when it comes to upgrading from my first ship. There's some easy ways to make money, but it will only get you by for a little while. I'm running AMD graphics (R9 280X) and the game's textures are consistently foiled. I went into a settings file and adjusted the size of the texture file (set it 2GB) and the textures came back (for the most part). Looked nice. But soon after, the controls fell apart. My controller stopped working properly (right-trigger is acceleration, but also the firing button). An improvement, but this game still needs a lot of fixing.

No Multiplayer on GOG
Well, here we are. No Man's Sky has received a really great update. Unfortunately, not for us GOG buyers. The multiplayer mode will be released later this year, if at all. The information policy for publication was = 0. I have been active here for many years and have never experienced anything like this. This should be a lesson for GOG, as well as for all players and potential buyers. I love this platform and all titles published directly from CD Projekt Red. But this? Don't go at all! Please do not support this policy and avoid this game. At least in this shop here...

Pretty much was I expected so I'm happy
Lets start with the scale. The game promised huge scale and we got it. You have enormous landscapes to explore and planets of many sizes. Primarily you will be searching for materials to repair your ship and equipment. But what they don't tell you is you will stumble across upgrades, new parts and other bits (no spoilers). My first two days of playing and I'm still finding new things on my very first planet. I almost didn't want to leave. However, once you do leave, there is space and it is by no means bare and empty. You can mine asteroids and hunt for giant ones with rare materials. Above your starting planet (and I assume in each star system) there is a station where you can interact with other aliens, trade with other ships docked in the station. Buy other ships and of course access the galactic market. So far, the game has been all about exploration and material gathering with some trading elements. Some people may find this a bit repetitive but I fully expected this from long before release. In the end the game is what you make of it. If you want to simply sit around and gather material and trade, then go for it. If you just want to travel between stars without visiting plants, off with you. If you want a bit more adventure you can fight other ships or drones and be a pirate. The only limit is you (and your hardware). The only negatives I can point out are: * When you first start the game it goes right into play mode. No menus to configure your graphics etc before starting the game. * You have to goto settings menu to exit the game. * You have to click and hold for a few seconds to active certain menus. * No scrolling options for mouse users (a lay over from console ports) * Some of the elements are a bit simplistic. e.g. no interacting with other ships outside of planets and stations (at least as far as I can tell). * Inventory space...can never have enough in this game I'm sure most or all of these can be ironed out over time.
