I always give it a go but the loop winds up losing me within 10 hours of play or so. Love the art and idea behind it but struggle with the gameplay :/
Someone once described No Man's Sky is as "wide as the sea, deep as a puddle."
That sums it up perfectly for me. It's a gorgeous, immense game with nothing of substance to do. I've tried returning to it several times, and each time I get bored in a few hours.
I felt that way at first, but ever since the big turning point update it's gotten a lot more layered and complex, to the point where I've gone from underwhelmed at the options to overwhelmed at the number of things I could be doing.
I'm willing to give it another try. Worst case it's a few hours spent enjoying colorful images before getting bored.
