On another note: It's time to revisit No Man's Sky (Gaming)

It really is a shame. I haven't played the update, so can't speak to its quality, but I'm not sure that matters--it's too little too late for most people I think, and I'm not sure anything they do could change that. I hope I'm wrong. I think I'd be really into the game No Man's Sky might be a year from now.

If you already own it, it's definitely worth hopping back in. Survival mode is brutal and awesome. I played literally all day today and had a blast. It's super hard. Just moved my base to a far less lethal world (no environmental hazards! Can you imagine? Literally the first world I've found like that. The occasional giant meat eating dino dog, and of course the sentinels are all frenzied, but no environmental hazards is well worth the tradeoffs. I still grit my teeth any time I have to go to space... those pirates are no joke. I am getting better at surviving on the surface of a world, at least.
