No Man's Sky - Procedural space game

Been thinking about getting NMS since it came out, is it worth £23.99 guys? (On Steam sale)

Personally I'd say no though closer to the right price for what it is even with the updates.

EDIT: TBH depends a bit how quickly you'd see through the game - some people can get close to 100 hours out of it before they start to see how shallow it is while others catch on inside a dozen hours and once you start to see it it ruins a lot of the game for you.

I had set my mental purchase price for it at £15. So £23 is much closer and given that its on sale for £23, I'm thinking that means that it may well show up on some of the cd key sites over the next week at the £15 price point. If so, I will pull the trigger on it, if not , I will continue to wait.

Seems to be getting good feedback and they still seem to have more updates on the way...

Craig321 · 9 Mar 2017 at 20:03

Might give this another go. I put 20 hours or something in to the original. Didn't realise they had released a big update before and now this one.

Cheers guys, I'm thinking about it... I might end up treating myself tomorrow at work

Certainly getting better with each update. It looks and runs better now too.

Indeed, lots of positive comments on here and on some on recent reviews on Steam.

21:9 fixed on this? And not some stretched ****?

Gimpymoo · 10 Mar 2017 at 10:46

Could this be the biggest "turn around" in gaming history?

I am hearing more and more positives about this now to the extent I might purchase it...

Never thought I would say that.

Well when you start with negative features, the only way you can go is up...

CaptainRAVE · 10 Mar 2017 at 11:05

More planned too. Loving the filters.

How do I start base building?

you need to find an abandoned base and claim it

Digital X · 10 Mar 2017 at 17:04

Oh ok thanks, seems easy enough.

CaptainRAVE · 10 Mar 2017 at 18:03

I don't like my current base planet. Can't be bothered to move it though

docsonic · 10 Mar 2017 at 18:45

The screenshot mode is a great addition. Really pleased they have added this in & looking forward to having another go with this game.

Kronos · 11 Mar 2017 at 07:44

Might go back to this, hopefully it won't bore me to death as the original did.

TonyTurbo78 · 11 Mar 2017 at 10:17

I'm intrigued but I still think I'm going to hold off playing it again until it gets another large update or two. The experience left me incredibly angry on launch.

So with the new update (the game only just came into my radar as it popped up in a feed!) is this worth checking out? I like the idea of your base planet being "yours" to explore, and name new species discovered and whatnot, and that supposedly 99% of the galaxy in the game contains planets that probably will never be discovered due to sheer size.
