I dunno, spore didn't suck because it relied on procedural generation, it sucked because it was 5 minigames strung around an okay species/building/spaceship designer

i liked the first couple of levels, it got real poo poo after that though

sid's a good guy and he's usually pretty trustworthy but there's something mighty shifty about the lengths he's going to to pimp rebel galaxy

there's a big juicy Reddit post over on my favorite website, Reddit, which lists like 50 major features that were shown in the promotional footage but were cut from the actual release.

It's really sad, it sounds like everything that would flesh out the concept got cut, and the developer just lied about what was in this game.

it's spore all over again right down to the nerd rage about cut features

If you're close to my age (sorry), I will describe No Man's Sky in one sentence for you: A Yes album cover by Roger Dean with music by Vangelis.

For the rest of you, let's keep going, and this isn't going to be an exhaustive gameplay discussion, because you can find those all over the place.

Let's pretend that you never read a word about No Man's Sky. Had no idea what it was about. One day, a disc appears in the mail and all it says is "Play Me".

You decide to follow instructions.

When the game is installed, you wait to play until the house is dark and quiet. You shut the door, put on headphones, and press "Play".

Your mind proceeds to get blown. Fully, irretrievably blown.

Awe.

Back in gaming's early days, we overlooked the minor in pursuit of the major. Today, we micro-analyze the minor to invalidate the major.

Don't do that with this game.

It's stunningly, staggeringly beautiful. The experience is almost hypnotic.

I could write many words about how NMS might be even better if it was different here and here and there, but those words do not matter.

The game is bigger than all of those words.

can't you just do the same thing by putting on some ambient music and starting up Space Engine or even Celestia and not parting with $40 or whatever this thing costs?

maybe read a book and learn something and you can listen to whatever music and maybe put on a lava lamp nearby

maybe stare into a fireplace and think about whatever for a while

actually that sounds good
