the vagueness of the game and interviews led people to believe things and become disappointed. Thanks to GC and coupons I only paid $25. To so some even that would be too much. It is a SINGLE PLAYER GAME!!!!!!! You explore, mine, kill bad animals, feed friendly animals to find minerals, kill ai ships and sentinels. You can name markers, planets and galaxies. That is where the :multiplayer" comes in. other ps4 players can see you discovered and named things, that is all. If you didn't read online, you can be fully upgraded in Suit(48 slots), Ship(48 slots) and Multi-toll(24 slots) on the starting planet with about 30hrs put in. I did that without even reading about it. Te POINT of the game is reaching the center of the galaxy. If you're a Trophy hunter this game is Platinum easy. I'm not and this is my only platinum game. Recommending to friends is rough. For those I know like a good SP game, I still told em find it used or even wait for a sale. With the release so close to Madden and Deus Ex, It's just not worth it unless you have nothing else to do. The game is so uninformative, you don't get jack inside either.

This game was hyped up alot and while it's not a bad game. Many of the promised features are missing and the game you're left with hardly justifies a 60 dollar purchase price.

No man's sky is a huge disappointment for me I was hoping for everything they show in e3 and ign but they didn't deliver its good for the first hours but then it gets boring and repetitive atlas quest is a joke and the "center" of the galaxy SPOILERS send you to the star of the game again and you don't get noting not even the credits don't buy it full price wait till is half or less

"As wide as an ocean, as deep as a puddle." has often been said about this game, and it's very fitting. Often boasting 18 quintillion planets, there are virtually limitless places to go... yet a surprisingly low amount of things to see and do. Without spoiling too much, the first few hours of the game are exciting. You'll feel lost, confused, and miniscule- all in the best ways. Once you get past exploring your first solar system, things gradually get less exciting. Sure, there are countless planets to explore, but once you've seen around 20 or so of them, you've seen them all. Same goes for animals, ships, and anything else procedurally generated. Not only that, but once you upgrade your various pieces of tech, there isn't anything else to do to put simply. With no real storyline or goals, you find yourself wandering rather aimlessly after maybe 8-10 hours of gameplay. For some, this is OK. If you enjoy the feeling of flying around, landing on different planets, and exploring over and over again, you'll find enjoyment here. If you're looking for vast variety, a compelling story, multiplayer, or a sense of accomplishing something, you'll be disappointed. An average game that, in my opinion, does not justify the full price of $60. My suggestion is to wait for the price to come down, wait for updates to improve the game with extra features, or both.

Overheard..."No mans sky isn't for everyone, it's an acquired taste". This is true. No man's sky received a lot of Hype, from gamers and especially the developers. A lot of Hype that blew a lot of smoke and a lot of hype that proved true. For the most part it's game graphically that is beautiful and finished well. but as far a content and features it falls short. very short. With a lack of depth and multiplayer in any way and form it falls short and this items are easily would have made this game worth it's full price. No man's sky it a great survival sandbox game. however at the price tag it sell for I can't recommend it at it's price. If it was under $35 I say walk but don't run. If it was $19.99 or less then it's okay to run. at the end of the day it's a great game to burn some hours into and just lose yourself as you reenact Matt Damon in the martian. A good and innovated game worth picking up just not a full price.
