  I think too many people confuse “This game isn’t for me” with “This game isn’t good”.

  I personally do not like No Man’s Sky. Not my thing, tried, twice, just not for me. I decided that it’s not my thing, other people like it, so great! I’ll play other things more suited to me.

  I think it’s weird to go and make a whole post saying “It’s underdeveloped” when it (I believe?) best redemption and it has mostly positive reviews. This would be a fair post if instead they had said “This is why I personally don’t like No Man’s Sky” instead of “It’s broken and needs fixed”. No, people like those systems, it’s your opinion that you don’t.

  That’s my conclusion after trying 3 times. There is no other game like NMS and I really wanted to like ir but it just never clicked with me.

    I’m not sure what you’re looking for in a “game like NMS”, but

    • Elite Dangerous
    • X4
    • Outer Worlds
    • Endless Space
    • Homeworld
    • Starfield
    • Star Citizen
    • Everspace

    Or “base”-building

    • Satisfactory
    • Astroneer
    • Terraforming Mars

    Not sure what you’re exactly looking for that NMS doesn’t scratch the itch of, but these are all games myself or friends have played that touch some of the same areas. Though, I understand the pain of “this game is so close to perfect for what I’m looking for, except for this one part that makes it unplayable to me”.

      Are you claiming Terraforming Mars the boars game adaptation is like No Man’s Sky in some way?

      I really like both but they are not similar on almost any way except both having a “space theme”…

        I was tired and think I had wires crossed on Terraforming Mars and Planet Crafter. Though, I’m not sure what parts of NMS are being focused on? Resource management with a space theme? There you go!
