Bought this many years ago. Only started really playing last year. Took me completely by surprise how good it is. I've been a gamer since the 90's. It's rare a game can totally overtake my time like this one did. Ship hunting is now my fave way to play. Such incredible variety. Going to a whole new galaxy blew my sox off. If hello games did put out dlc i'd gladly pay for it.

Luckily for you, every singular content update has been and is expected to continue being free. Every 3 or so months they release a large content drop for absolutely free. It's why everyone who plays it now always recommends it to anyone who is curious enough but not confident in taking the step to try it.

No mans sky is very much about owning all the things, owning mutiple multitools, owning multiple starships, owning a base, owning a freighter which is just a base that can warp, owning a fleet of frigates to do missions for you, and even owning a township that passively generates money for you. As far as crafting survival games I feel like it has the biggest sense of power fantasy when you near the end game.

it's also a game about enlightenment, or at least what i think is one of the ways we can look at it. the devs clearly know what they want, which is to give the players as much of a fun gaming experience as they have the time to play. they just want to build the game. because it doesn't matter how ever much you own, at the end of the game main story line, you'll always be asked this simple question: keep playing the same universe, or let everything go and start anew? no man's sky own development story has been something of a redemption story. it took on an entirely new identity when the devs said, enough was enough, it was never about the money. now that we have it, what do we really want to do? and then they started really working on making the game they promised. there was a very a turning point, even if from the outside view, it looked like they were doing fuck-all. it was complete silence. they didn't communicate with game journalists or publishers or anyone still talking about it. and they delivered. they didn't have to talk, because having suffered the consequences of releasing a game before it was finished, there was but one thing to do, and it just so happened to be what they loved doing the most: make the damn game. and so they did. and they still keep doing that, even now. i think you brought up a dang good point. no man's sky is very much about owning all the things, and i'd add that it's also very much about realizing that no matter how many things you own, in the end you can't really own everything. it's a procedurally generated universe out there, and boy do i need you to tell me about how vast it is. the definition of having an infinity to discover and play with is probably this: you can definitely own all the things, but never ALL of the things that there are. chasing that ultimate power fantasy can be very enjoyable, and they let you do that, because it will eventually lead you to the epiphany that it's a never ending sort of experience if you simply wish for it to be. oh and they're still continuing to develop the game and adding to it every time they get the chance. talking about the story line, that one question at the end is also giving you a real choice. it's letting you decide whether there are yet still many interesting things for you to see and do in this universe, and you'd rather stay and keep doing this, or if you're ready to start fresh, and do it all over again, but with a brand new beginning. and you know it's okay whichever option you do pick, because you know it's your choice, and you'll end up having tons of fun either way. man i love games that people created with love. i love playing them and i love talking about them. they're so inspiring and urge me to do the same. no man's sky is really a gift that keeps on giving. friggin' love this game, man.

I got it right after they added the base construction. And while there are still lingering bugs, it is the type of game you can just take your time through and just explore stuff. It is possible to get to a point where you have done pretty much everything at that point. In which case, you wait until the next Expedition and start over, which isn't a bad thing.

If only Anthem could have had the same comeback story... Still kills me to see such potential completely abandoned...

No Man's Sky make starfield look like a indie game

The Vr is especially good. It plays better than most titles. It's a free update as well

They were ambitious and sadly the game and the hype around it was bigger than what they could manage. But the fact that they stayed with it and managed to turn this into a success story is unbeliveable. Congrats to them. Barely any company stays with their failed projects, but it is even rarer to turn it into a success story. They outdid themselves and I just hope they learned how to do the marketing for their new project if they ever have one

Just shame that they made it into something completely different than originally planned. The art direction suffered greatly. While the visuals are really well done, they are bland and lacking the personality it used to have and was hyped around. Colors are so desaturated it is almost insane to think it still holds the same name despite looking nothing like it used to. It is great they put out the updates though don't get me wrong, though it does not focus on the Universe and generation algorithm which was the sole purpose of the PR for the game back then.

Not to mention the work they put into the Switch version with the Echoes update makes the game look amazing. Easily one of the best looking games on Switch now.

One of my favorite Force series, "unrecognizable in [year]." Not just because he gets sponsored by the devs, but because he gets to gush about some games he likes that he may not play a ton at the current moment. All good. 👍

Amazing channel! just found your channel and I'm hooked. Great content and easy to follow. Love your stuff!

The other week I was completing a Sentinel mission where I had to defeat 2 Sentinel Walkers on my Steam Deck. I had the sound on, but as I was in the middle of the last wave, I didn't have time to turn the sound down. A fellow member of staff came running over, hearing the Sentinel Walker stomping and having a temper tantrum outside my base, wondering what I was playing. He was shocked when I said it was No Man's Sky. He was blown away at how much the game improved over the years.

I like it has a coloful space, not only a black backgound with little bright dots.

We need new The Day Before video asap Force xD

It still lacks meta-game. They have added so many things to do, but not WHY to do. Get space rich, get best gear - cool stuff but what to do with it? It needs some reason to use all these. Examples: Faction conflict where you can impact/join to turn the tides. Some colonization/base building/outpost incentive, could help grow your empire or help faction. Could boost reasons to trade and related piracy/defence options. etc.

That's right. Well the funny thing is, the "Why" do it reason was always the exploration and mystery. Always seeing something new, never before discovered thanks to the algorithm, but that never came to be. Planets are highly restricted with their generation, meaning the variety is quite predictable no matter how many are explored, there is a pattern that is painfully obvious even though the vanilla was more varied despite not even being the promised game either. It baffles me how they left the original idea behind so easily instead of like doubling down and bringing it to light. for literally 7 years people blindly praise these updates as if HG did a comeback, meanwhile they are working on a whole different game now. Long story short - NMS Pre-Release wins over any current updates of NMS in 2023, just look at those juicy screenshots and vids out there you will know.

No, meta play styles has ruined games these days, that’s why world of Warcraft became what it is today because there has to be some meta play style that everyone has to min/max and only play a specific type of way to get the best results possible it bottlenecks creativity and imagination and just turns into a game of who has more autism

I knew "No Man's Sky" was a great example of post launch attention, but HOLY SH*T I didn't realize it was to this extent!!! don't usually post anything, but this deserves some traction!!!!

I got the game in 2021 and just could not get into it, started playing at again today and WOW. I dont know if I was just missing the point, or did not give it enough time but this is an awesome game. Played it for about 6 hours straight today and had a blast, incredible game.

I just got it recently. Haven't gotten far but I have enjoyed it so far

Congrats to the Hello Games team, they finally delivered what they promised at launch.

I bought this game for ps4 at Walmart like 6 months to a year after it came out for $15. that was one of the best $15 I've spent. I think it was right around the time after the first BIG update where they added bases and vehicles.

I started this when Starfield disappointed and it's really neat. I can understand why it wouldn't be for everyone but I think it's fantastic

Hey good luck on getting to 1,000,000 subs. Very cool.

Cannot express my love for this game/team enough.

the Founder of Hello games took equity out of his house to use as the seed money they needed to make no mans sky... I cant imagine the stress and pressure he felt on those first days of launch when people were shitting on the game and tearing the game apart in the reviews after all that work and effort...to have turned it all around is a epic comeback story worth of a fucking movie ...the balls and strength he had to have in those first few weeks was insane and even after all that he did not charge player MORE money for pay to win ships or loot boxes or any of that bullshit ...mad respect to him

Great handling of their game! I actually bought it for the second time recently, this time for the PC, so I could test it with my quest 2.

its pretty good as a newb its like an adult mine craft of sorts im sure theres a story in there somewhere but i just like buildinbg in the sandbox

Great vid. Got a sub and a like. Might think about giving it another whirl.

I started playing in April or May and have played nearly every day since. The one thing that I desperately wish they would overhaul is Build Mode. Love building but I don't glitch build, which limits what I can create. More limiting is the fact that things that should snap frequently don't for whatever reason. Lots of items can't be color edited. Makes building insanely frustrating at times. Otherwise, I love the game. It's a crazy time eater and I'm retired so that's a good thing.

Bought this game for PSVR 2 & it looks amazing! They did a fantastic job!

I only just started playing, and it's been hard to put down. It's like minecraft mixed with sea of thieves except it's in space and you get to find, collect, and fly spaceships. I had looked into star citizen and briefly got excited, then realized my friend with a decent gaming pc couldnt run it. And while my pc is slightly better, knew I probs coildnt run it either and also wanted to play w friends. And then finally decided to try this since it was on game pass (though i plan to just buy it and a few other games so i can stop paying for a sub i barely use lol). Well worth it so far!

they deserve all the love ! ty for the video

I mean I signed up for a world exploration game with minor resource gathering. I got exactly that, I loved the game straight from the start, it’s everything I wanted. I loved slowly learning the languages and talking with different species, looking over the different planets and finding outposts to get better ships. I think the game just got the Cyberpunk treatment, (funny since it was before) where the hype around the game grew to such heights that could never be achieved.

Fun to see the images, I have every setting on lowest, so that's how I know the game. And I probably wouldn't go as far as buying a gaming PC just for NMS, but admittedly, I am a little bit jealous now, of players who can play with everything cranked up to the max ;-) I Started playing a couple of weeks ago, by the way, so I did not really experience the whole development, and have not done and seen about half of what is shown here. I was a bit overwhelmed though, by the sheer amount of stuff that there is to do. What I like about the premise of NMS is that the game very much does not try to keep you small. Somehow it feels really satisfying to walk through my self built base overlooking a settlement in the distance, with the silhouette of my freighter and frigate fleet way up in the sky. (Lots of crashes though, but again, most of that probably has more do do with my own lightweight system than with NMS itself. I mean, you CAN run it with 8 GB and integrated graphics card, but then don't whine when it doesn't run as good, and won't look nearly as good as in this video)

LIGHT NO FIRE IS COMING OUT SOON AS WELL!!!! SO EXCITED!!!

been thinking about hopping back in the game i havent played for a while

Its on sale rn for black friday. Copped it, gran turismo 7, dying light 2 and culhead

I havent played this game in years. I just bought it today for my Steam Deck and im super excited to revisit this universe again! Its soooooo different now!

Nice music was smooth and relaxing

Definetly a good game! Definetly a good overview of the updates. Thanks man

7 years since this came out, and somehow Starfield look like FO4 with their decades old engine.

It would be amazing if they are no man sky ground bosses Like actually Geks or vykeens using like a mech to fight you Don’t forget it would be also cool to have New freighters

I need to start playing, VR2 is supported on PS5.

I bought this game on release and gave it a solid go but I couldn’t into due to the lack of content. Now….now I’m super excited but I don’t know what plate form I should get it for. Should I enjoy myself on the couch or at my desk? Any pointers cause I’m defiantly buying this game again and giving it another go. Thank you for your review

it would be cool if they had a star wars mod with this game.

I’m playing it now and loving it. I never played it previously but decided to give it try a few weeks ago since it’s on Game Pass and I really like it 😊

Day one player and i havent played for like a year maybe a little more and damm im amazed how many things they’ve added i dint know where to start lol

But is there anything to do? as in, story/missions/sense of progression? Or they just added stuff?

I'm contemplating buying NMS, but before that, can someone tell if there is a narrative / story (cinematics all that stuff) or is it more cryptic (like a souls game) ? or is this purely an exploration/survival/mutliplayer game and story is scarce, almost non-existant ?

This is one of my all time favorite games

Wow I knew they improved the game but I didn't realize it was to this extent. It looks awesome! Definitely gonna reinstall.

I've been playing it again over the past week and it still doesn't have anything to make me want to stay. Most planets are nothing special to look at, they all have the same bases\buildings and the little objects for you to discover and open. The main purpose of the game is to work to gain new objects so you can do more of the same pointless planet discoveries. It's like Farming Simulator where the only purpose is to gain more and better farming equipment so you can do more farming, rinse and repeat.

I have around 4000 hrs across multiple saves on Xbox1 unfortunately it's starting to struggle, So I brought it on PC and have around 500 hrs so far, again on multiple saves, I was 30+ galaxies on Xbox, I get to do it fresh all over again, this time with my wife, daughter and grandchildren.

I am wondering what's in store from here onward honestly ? Will there be more updates or they will create a new project at some point ?It's great that they manage to pull it out of that mess and support it ,but I hope people just don't blindly trust any other companies again since I am pretty sure nobody wants to put some money into a game without an early access tag like on steam and wait 3 to 4 years after to actually start playing.

It looks so freaking good in VR!

I just bought this on sale. All of the feature updates without any DLC is so refreshing - you can buy the game and that is it.

Did they fix land regrowth in a build over area or does it still respawn inside bases?

@wolfen210959

If you dig out a section of land, it will regrow, so just build a base inside an existing cave, there are loads of them on pretty much every planet. Some people claim that if you upload your base to the HG servers, in your build computer menu, then the land does not regrow, but i've never tried it, as I don't build underground.

Um NMS was a scam at launch and took 6 years to even come close to completion. It still isn't complete btw. Atleast Starfield was not broken, it's just boring. And modding will do wonders for the game.

I have put 1000 hrs already, nowadays I just join to complete expeditions, I have to find a cooler staff and also find a better location to establish and do my colony proper. Only regret it feels lonelier as a survival gamer, also have manually traveled with my freighter to an unpopular galaxy (elkupalos), I use my freighter exclusively now and I also have bases on some galaxies near to portals to be able to visit locations and collect cool stuff. Oh I also have to decorate my freighter base...

this seems like a whole new game but... are any of these systems deep enough to actually be fun? Or is it a bunch of shallow half-baked mechanics that offer a little variety but then it all becomes incredibly repetitive?

Wow, I haven’t played this game since 2018 I’m hopping on right now

I feel like I need to give this game a real go. I never get past the first hour or so because it just doesn't seem that interesting.

If you want to play a game that has an auction house for players, try World of Warcraft, you'll have to buy the game and pay extra for each and every expansion, then pay a monthly fee, but at the end of all that you'll get a game with an auction house, where con men try to convince foolish players to "buy this now only $3,000", "step right this way to purchase our fake money, using your real money", yeah, no thanks.

Damn. Need to buy this actually

Hello Games team regretted their decision (more like Sony's _brutal_ decision, if you guys knew the story) of releasing a game that was basically still on its alpha/beta test because of some unfortunate circumstances, and decided that, "Hey, y'know what? How about giving our disappointed customers some love by _giving them everything they've asked and more, without charging them more money?"_ And the rest is history.

Kodus to Hello Games 🤘🏻👏❤

I thought full-coop multi-player was not in the game ? From the hour or two of multi-player things I've tried to research, there is no full coop. You have individual saves and you can join up at some points. No shared inventories, research, etc. It's not really full coop like raft for exemple.

im buying this game just to support the developers. i like space games, but i think its really important to boost dev teams like this.
