I just hate games that force you to stop or walk to listen to somebody jabber over a radio or make you look at all the pretty skybox graphics. Just let me play the game.

I don't know. The underwater pac-man section of spore alone has more gameplay than NMS.

If you need 2 extra things to make a game enjoyable it means it's a bad game

The trick to enjoying Spore is erasing your save game immediately after you pass the underwater pac man section.

Unlike NMS, Spore at least has a Create feature.

Also NMS is effectively the SPore spacefaring stage, except without the ability to terraform and gently caress with planets in general.

THe Spore tribal and civilization stages were arguably way worse than anything in NMS, but once you got past them, the game was actually more feature rich than what you get in tyool 2016

Doesn't NMS also have dogfights and an FPS component though? Might appeal to someone looking for a super casual space sim/4x-light.

Although it would still be pretty shallow from everything I've seen and heard.

Peter Molyneux summed this cycle up beautifully in a 2014 interview with Develop when he explained the game-building process. The famed developer said that every game begins as a jewel, a gem that ultimately becomes flawed by the end. “I just shouldnt get so excited in front of the press,” he explained. “There’s an empirical decay between what the idea is in your mind and what you end up with, no matter what creative field you’re working in. I talk to a lot of creative people and they’re often disappointed in their own work … Saying that, of course, Godus exceeds that gem.”

You get a FPS game that is shallower than Minecraft combat. In a way it's insultingthat they thought adding this poo poo in would impress people.
