    Unlimited potential, limited by the grind

    This is a great game, if you're into this style of play. The reviews on-line about the extreme grinding required are very true. As I started playing my character every 5 minutes needed me to go mine for life support items. It distracts from the experience, unless you just like that or are not terribly against that type of activity. Even with that... This game has unlimited potential. It's just limited by the incessant grind.

    Must-have game for PSVR

    I picked this up after the VR update dropped and reading good reviews. Never having played the flat version, I decided to pick it up and give it a shot. This game lives up to the hype and is a must-have for PSVR owners in my opinion. For anyone on the fence about getting this game, just do it. You won't regret it.

    Endless journeys and lots of fun! This game has a lot of grinding but the cross platform and voice enabled play makes it a great game for friends. Time consuming and addictive! Be sure to have a wiki guide ready because there is a lot to the game. Free upgrade to PS5 from PS4 is always a welcomed benefit!

    I already owned this game on PC and when my wife got me a PS5 for my birthday, this is the first game I bought because I enjoy this game a lot and it has a free upgrade from PS4 to PS5. Looks and plays great on PS5.

    This is a great version of the game if you haven't checked out NMS yet and you have the PSVR setup. I have only played a few hours of this but this game looks really good in VR. Exploring alien systems in VR is as fun as it sounds. Price is good too.

    If you recall this game at launch it was boring and horrible. They have added so much and have turned this game around. It is a full experience now and can be played fully in VR.

    This game is so much better in VR. Took me awhile to figure out what to do, but with a little help from an online text, I was planet hopping in no time.

    Game had an awful launch. But has gotten way better as time goes on. Now with more DLC and a free version mode the game is great and would recommend.

    I never played this game until yesterday, and I'm pretty impressed with it. The graphics are great, the mechanics are smooth, and everything about the game is refreshing. I'm glad I bought this game.

    This game has come a long way from what early reviews said. It does take awhile to get used to controls and learn what you can do, but once you have it down the adventure and exploration awaits.
