    I, like many others bought NMS when it release on PS4 and was greatly disappointed. I sold it soon after purchase in 2016 but figured I'd give it another shot since I've heard some good things about it after updates. It's a completely different game in all the right ways.

    My first couple of hours with this "game" were cool, the hours that followed that quickly hit a cliff and became rather boring stagnant and repetitive. If you want a grind and only a grind this is the "game" for you.

    I own a PS4 pro and completely ignored this games first release. It just didnt feel or look right to me. Upon see the changes and updates on the Xbox One version I knew this is the game I wanted to see. 4K graphics. A 3rd Person camera and multiplayer to name a few!

    Fun game and it is nice to see they have improved it. I originally played on PC but got a refund back when it came out. I decided to give it another chance and got a good deal on it for Xbox so I figured why not. Glad I gave it the chance

    This originally released on PC & PS4 2 years ago and was received negatively by the media for it's lacking features that were promised before release. Now, yes 2 years later, with the "NEXT" update, we finally have multiplayer, improved visuals & more. Jumping back in as a disgusted player from 2016 release, or a new traveler, you will enjoy it as much as the next guy.

    I have been waiting for this to come out on X-Box One X. I read a lot about this game over the past 2 years. With all of the updates that were being made, I wanted to try it. It's a kind of game I like. I can just do my own thing as I am not into multi-player. I started playing and before I knew it 4 hours had passed. You can lose track of time, so be aware!

    I enjoy the vastness and opportunity to explore. There is a creative mode where you don't need to worry about resources as much but the normal mode is still a little too much about constantly recharging your systems by pointing lasers at rocks...

    Game is about exploration and building. Combat is not the focus, but is present. The game progresses slowly, but is perfect for chill sessions to enjoy exploring different types of planets and finding the perfect spot to build a base.

    No Man's Sky is a fantastic space exploration game! The graphics for spacecraft, space travel, planets, and environments are great. The user controls are also simple to use. The developers did a great job of making an entertaining game that provides many hours of enjoyment. I am pleased with this purchase.

    The game was in a terrible state when it launched. The devs have put a ton of work into the game post-launch and has turned out to be pretty good. 100% open world, just do whatever you want. Know what you are getting yourself into.

    This is a great game! Over time the game has gotten better and better. The team that develops this game have put a lot of attention into upgrades and appear to continue to do so. Not to mention that so far all the upgrades to this game have been free. With billions of planets to explore how could you go wrong!!

    This is a great game to play when there is a dry spell with no games out. Additionally, it is great to play when you just want to relax and not have to really think about too much. The addition of coop is great.

    For those that have not had a chance to play on XBOX this is a great time. Game has a number of improvements made since launch. Still has some areas that need work but overall it is a fun time to explore the galaxy.

    When it first released on PS4 many were let down. But I'm glad they kept working and improving the game because there was so much potential and expectations from the beginning.

    Great visuals and solid gameplay that has received a considerable amount of attention by the developers, post-release. Planets still feel lifeless, however.

    Sometimes you just want to play a game and chill. This game definitely lets you do that. You go at your own pace. The tutorial can be a tad confusing at times but it becomes much easier. If you like exploration games then you should definitely check this out.

    What a fantastic game! Visuals are amazing! Found myself eager to return to the game, to see what i could find, and where to try exploring next. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys to explore, chase quests, and mining/farming supplies.
