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.

    Amazing Scope

    The scope of this game is mindblowing. It does have some parts that leave a bit to be desired but you can't complain that this is a small game. Think "space minecraft" and you have the idea. Land, craft, travel, repeat.

    This game had way too much hype, it ended up being very boring. Beautiful setting and planets but very repetitive and boring.

    I'm glad I don't follow the hype of video games and pay too much attention to opinions. So for me the game was fine, I didn't expect a lot, just a fun exploration game.

    Kind of a big let down. Didn't have the multiplayer like we where led to believe that it had, and was overall pretty boring.

    I would not recommend this game expecially for $60. If it was like $10 I would say give it a try but otherwise stay away.

    It hard to understand. I didn't read the reviews but I watched the press on the game. My 9 year old was really excited for the game but it's too complex for him.

    Good game for what it is. The controversy isn't from the game itself, but the false advertising and promises the developers made, but didn't keep. But if you building things and space travel, this is your game.

    It's a decent game that can kill some of your time. But after some time you were doing the same thing over and over again

    Honestly, the game isn't terrible. But it isn't great either. This will be a decent $20 purchase when it drops in price
