Do you think anyone sincerely enjoyed this or was it all attempts to convince themselves it wasn't lame?
Because real talk, this isn't just bad its lame. It is a lame videogame. I picked it up for 99p off ebay and it seems both devoid of mechanics and what it has are designed for a different kind of game than what it is.
Beyond the bullshit, the lies, the "Grand High Cult of b-but you can do anything!" scam citizen tired stockholm syndrome hive defender drones it indoctrinated No Mans Sky is basically the largest criticism of Minecraft as an entire game.
"You either stay near your spawn forever because it was a good one and the open world is redundant, or you get a shit spawn and spend forever looking for better things knowing you can't see it all and therefore constantly feel a sense of time wasting over the experience".
Its a game whos got no real target and as such no real target audience. There are the mouth breathers that call it a "chill game" but those tend to be the fags that believe "games should have a skip gameplay for story button" and use terms like "its okay if you switch your brain off" which is the 'i have given up' statement to show you are an evolutionary dead end that should be sterilised for the good of life.
So who actually enjoyed it? i mean dont get me wrong jumping in your ship, flying to another planet, naming shit for a while and looking at wierd pro-gen fuck ups was neat for about 30 minutes tops. But thats the entire galaxy of this game. With updates that appear to try to appease the builder autism element somewhat but that still means you effectively are playing a objectively shittier subnautica or minecraft.
Whats the audience they actually intended for this?
