Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the exploration, planets, open world, and universe size in No Man’s Sky, frequently citing the vastness and enjoyment of exploring the game's many planets and universe. However, many find the gameplay repetitive and lacking in content, with some also criticizing the game's story and value for the price. The sheer scale of the game's universe is a major draw for many players, but this is often offset by concerns about repetitive gameplay mechanics.

    This was one of the games that I was excited for since the PS4 released and after playing for a few days was let down. The graphics and the gameplay itself was fun. It felt too repetitive for me and I guess that I was expecting something different. I ended up trading in.

    This game had too much hype around it and didn't meet expectations. Basically you hop from planet to planet and mine minerals to sell and upgrade your ship and tools. That is 90% of the game. If you're into that then this game is for you. It has a lot of potential however.

    This game as garnered a lot of hate as people did not take the game on its face value but subscribed their own wishes and dreams upon it. Overall its a resource hunt game that places emphasis on exploring the galaxy while ultimately getting to it's center. Its a classic tale of its more about the journey than the final destination.

    Like many, I was hyped about this game prior to release. Like most, I was underwhelmed by the product that was delivered. This game is good for what it is though, and if you enjoy a relaxing, zen type of game, this is worth a play through. I think a $20 - 30 price would have been more appropriate for the quality of content offered

    This game was very hyped up and I was very excited for its release. After playing it for a few hours I can say I did enjoy the majority of it, but it was pushed out way too early. The game is ridden with bugs and glitches with a few of them being game breaking where your save becomes corrupted or you can't journey to a new galaxy.

    Basically my review summary describes it. The game is limitless almost however there is a lot of redundancy with the alien and ship types. Also its a pretty lonely game and I found it difficult to navigate back to planets I had already been to. Fun if your bored...

    Great exploring game that has one of the most unique ideas in a very long time. However, the game felt as though it was rushed to get to the shelves and have way too many flaws in the game to make it a masterpiece. Still a decent game that you can spend hours on.
