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.

    While this is not a game for everyone it is a great single player experience where you will get lost for hours experiencing countless worlds.

    I like the pre-order bonus that came with the game from best buy.

    Not a game for me

    I logged about 8 hours into this game and it definitely wasn't for me. Was promised so much from the developer and half of the features didn't exist in the game.

    Not as bad as the Hype leads you to believe.

    This is actually a very well done game. It is just overshadowed by the sheer amount of hate generated based on pre-release trailers. If you haven't watched any footage yet... don't. As long as you go into this with an open mind and no bias, you will have fun with this game.

    I bought this game because my teenager was begging for it and had some birthday money he wanted to spend on it. Brought it home and my husband started playing it before my Son could even get his hands on it. They both love it.

    I had been eyeing this game for a while and I am so glad I purchased it. It has randomly become such a relaxing game for me to play. The visuals are gorgeous and the controls are easy to pick up. So far so good!

    This Game crashes...even after patches

    Do not buy this game! There is no guarantee it will work 100% on your system and not crash. PSN (Sony), Steam, and Amazon have given people refunds for the game, even digital downloads (which they have very RARELY done). Best Buy will not refund your money if it is defective, so you can gamble if you want. I'm now stuck with a game that crashes on my PS4 and is unplayable. Purchase at your own risk. Oh...and there is no online playing which was touted before the release.

    While No Mans Sky offers a beautiful an mysterious journey, it falls short of having any long term interest.

    I gave this game two stars, the same amount of minutes I had fun in the game. Played about 5 hours and have never had any desire to return.

    Believe the reviews.....It is pretty boring

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    While I applaud the small developer for delivering a beautiful & different kind of game.......It really doesn't live up to the hype and should not cost this much. It is alot of micromanagement which imo doesn't really count as gameplay. Save yourself some money and rent it to see if it is your cup of tea because it is slooooow & kind of tedious.

    This game blew my mind the first time I played it and many hours later it still continues to do so. This may be my favorite game ever.

    They have revived this game, if you have purchased it i suggest blowing the dust off it and giving it another shot.
