This game is very fun. So very fun. Funny enough, even though you can't easily reach other players playing it "with" friends makes it that much better. I'm 90% sure the PS4 Share button was made for this game.

Some minor things that are a little frustrating (Inventory space, lack of bookmarking systems, etc.) Overall I'm having a great time.
I found out Sony is crediting me $50 for all the hassle they put me through with customer service so would you say it's worth $10
$10?? Absolutely.

The only thing I can think when I watch people play this is "Why should I play this when Elite: Dangerous already exists?"

because being constrained to a cockpit seems boring as hell

I got Elite a while ago, just started playing it a lot a couple weeks ago and I can safely say they're two totally different games. NMS is largely ground based while Elite is largely all ships. They're not really similar in any way really. Two totally different styles.

I say that while playing with two guys who have done a ton in Elite. One of them has been to Beagle Point and both have sunk hours and hours into that game. Both have loved NMS so far and agree there are more differences than similarities.

The out of cockpit stuff is just repetitive run of the mill survival gameplay though. Sure it's neat to see the creatures the first few times and naming stuff if you find it first is kind of cool, but the novelty wears off quickly once you start to realize that the creatures are essentially lego ones and the planets end up being little more than pallet swaps. Which leaves me with nothing other than the space stuff which all seems to be sub par when compared to Elite: Dangerous.

The lack of engaging gameplay for ground stuff is why I never bought the Horizons expansion for Elite: Dangerous as well. If they ever end up adding more to it i'll bite, but at the moment I couldn't care less about it.

I mean, sure? It depends on what you look for in a game of course. The kind of gameplay No Man's Sky features just pushes all the right buttons for me so of course I'm going to like it. It's the type of game that sort of requires you to buy in to the world and become (for lack of a better term) "immersed".

Also, I can't repeat this enough, fundamentally it's not the same game as Elite. It doesn't play like Elite, the goals aren't as same as Elite, literally nothing except the setting of space is the same. If you're looking for the same style in NMS you're not going to find it.

I'd say it's worth it but like I said in the response to LC, it largely depends on what you look for when entering the game.

I'm sort of intrigued as to why Verb is interested.

I spent an hour and a half on the galaxy map flying to the galactic core from 180k light years away to see what was there and there wasn't anything.

For reals though, the fact this was made by a team of 11 developers is nothing short of amazing. Props to HG for that.

emigrate or degenerate. the choice is yours
If you manage your expectations and hype then it'll probably make the experience more enjoyable. Going in expecting a universe sized MMO with an immersive adventure is probably the wrong way of approaching the game.
literally who expected this


developer: you guys will be able to see other players

Community: really?we can see other players?

Sean: yeah totally you can see other players

Community: Sean we can't see other players what gives?

Mordo: you guys shouldn't have expected to see other players
Literally quote me word for word where I said any of that shit faggot.

If the devs said you should be able to see other players then you should be able to see other players. What I SAID was keep cautiously optimistic expectations so you don't end up disliking an otherwise well crafted game.
