No Man's Sky Reviews
No Man's Sky might not be a perfect game, in fact it is riddled with flaws from a technical and visual perspective, but it is certainly a bold new step that benefited from random generation technology to give us an impressive universe with endless possibility. We have to appreciate the effort that the small Hello Games has been able to put into this.

I do not recommend NMS for $60 right now especially on PC, it’s simply not worth picking up due the endless amount of grinding and the port not being up to standards
No Man’s Sky is like a good magic trick. The first time you see it it’s the coolest thing ever. Maybe even the second or third time. But after the 30th time it’s just nowhere as cool as the first time. And by then you know its mechanics so well that the enchantment is broken and see it for the illusion that it is.
Players willing to take a chance with No Man's Sky will experience a breathtaking world whose history you have to write yourself.

Ultimately, you get what you put in to No Man’s Sky. It takes a load of dedication and searching to get the most out of the world and as more and more players continue through the galaxy it will be amazing to see what everyone finds. That being said if you aren’t one for picking an objective, like finding all a planets discoveries for a tidy lump sum, and need a narrative focus there is no real point to picking up No man’s Sky.
No Man's Sky is not a bad game, nor is it the Game of the Year many expected. It is good for what it is and you can have fun with it for a long time to come. Just don't expect more than it really is and beware that with day-one patch the game still suffers from various bugs and crashes.
No Man's Sky is a very inconsistent and hard to evaluate game. It's all about your preferences. If you like exploring new worlds you'll love it, iff you don't, you won't.

No Man's Sky has been compared to Minecraft, but as it sits that's not a very apt comparison. The game is, as a friend called it, a mile wide and an inch deep. It's a sandbox without the bucket and shovel. They have big plans for future updates, so perhaps it'll be a game to check out at that point.
An awe-inspiring breakthrough in procedural generation technology that could become a great game after several updates, but for now, it's not worth buying unless at a heavily discounted price.
Das Team von Hello Games hat zwar eine wirklich beachtliche Leistung mit No Man’s Sky abgeliefert, schafft es aber trotzdem nicht ganz die angepriesene Welt wirklich wie erwartet umzusetzen. Nach einigen Spielstunden trifft man zwar immer noch auf neue Dinge, aber die Limitierungen im Gameplay und bei allen Bereichen außer der reinen Planeten-Anzahl, sind einfach zu schnell erreicht. Ob die Entwickler hier noch mit Updates etwas an Abwechslung ins Spiel bringen können bleibt noch offen, aber in der aktuellen Fassung ist No Man’s Sky eher nur eine simple Weltraum-Simulation für zwischendurch.

An interesting concept, just not enough variety and can become boring after a few hours
No Man’s Sky is a foundation for an opportunity that no game has come close to, but is so empty despite its size. This is a game riddled with technical difficulties, bland visuals, but beckons you to its side with its openness and eluding promises.
No Man's Sky, developed by Hello games and published by Sony is finally here. No doubt plenty of you are and have been playing the game since its release, so is the HYPE train real? I'm not so sure, however I will say I never nor anyone I work with hyped the game up. We understood that this was an indie game with a cool concept being backed by a large publisher. Other people seemed to have blown what No Man's Sky is doing out of proportion due to the fact it was backed by Sony.
No Man's Sky is a flawed game that everyone should try to experience once, just not at $60. There's a lot to see and not much to do.
This is what I want. It may not be what you want, but No Man’s Sky is what I want.
No Man's Sky has a framework that could have led to an impressive game. Instead, the core parts of "gameplay" seem to be limited in the name of calling it a "chill game". It's boring, uninspired, repetitive and simply unfun.
No Man’s Sky is ultimately a disappointment, and it’s hard to recommend it at the price it is going for.
By no means is No Man’s Sky a bad game, but it just isn’t an amazing one. That a team of 10 people could create the vast experience they have is an incredible feat and one that should never be downplayed, but I almost wish they hadn’t been so intent on creating such a giant experience.
'No Man's Sky' pairs our love of exploration with a universe of massive scale. While the story takes some sorting out before you feel like you really have a grasp on it, it is deep and thought-provoking. There are many systems and features within the game, and the vast majority of them feel polished and correctly balanced. 'No Man's Sky' is a game that is worth playing.
Hello Games can certainly fix a lot of No Man’s Sky’s faults over time and I believe they will. It has plenty of potential and already offers players an addictive and sometimes mesmerising experience. It’s just a shame that right now, it’s a skeleton of the game it could become.
