Actually, I've been playing it with the update, makes the game a *lot* better. Also they fixed the tiny arse inventory issue. And mining is more interesting now... less of a grind and more scavenger hunt + thoughtful trip planning.

@Zacsi: Devious.

I'm not surprised. Trying to keep that gravy train rolling.

@Raxyz: At least Minecraft has servers where you can see and interact with other players.

Base building... a game about exploring the universe - wandering the stars - seeking out new life and new civilizations... and we're supposed to be excited about making bases...

boy, they REALLY have no idea what their community wants, do they?

Really, I'm surprised that Hello Games actually came through with updating NMS instead of abandoning it and working on their next project. Assuming they CAN work on other projects, given that their reputation is so tainted. Not that this will save them, of course.

Well, No Man's Sky made Morgan cry.

As if their dev team didn't cross enough lines already; - ;

There is a very simple reason why we got an update (that added little to nothing):
The update went live one day exactly before cyber monday to sell more to gullible chumps. It's fucking disgusting.

@Jo Pereira: Yeah, maybe if it had co-op it wouldn't be flamed as hard. A purely single-player game needs a solid story or a compelling gameplay. Great games do both. NMS had neither AFAIK.

@Corey Lau: Never heard of it.

Thanks for the tip on "Tales of Demons and Gods". That one was quite fun to read. Sadly the manga is not finished yet, so this is another one to add to my "check this strip weekly"-list.

@Raxyz: we already have space minecraft, it's called space engineers

@Raxyz: Here is the thing, Minecraft can be played as a creative venue. Think Architeture Simulator.

No Man Sky is a PvE game only, and if it fails at that, there isn't much else.

NMS is essentially a Space Minecraft. Considering I find Minecraft extremely boring, NMS didn't do much to me, and I second the thought of not playing even if they add dancing bunnygirls.

Idk, i like making bases in starbound for example, even though i know i will have to leave them behind...
Btw Jo, ever played tabletop simulator? It is a game i spend most of my recent free time on...

Ayy Lmao
