    Would it be fair to say though that the amount of new content released over the last year is not as much as in previous years?

    *skims the update notes* Still no feminine body types to choose *sigh*

    Otherwise impressive as usual. Looking forward to the next one.

    Lots of content in the past 6 years. Have to give it to them they have more than redeemed themselves in my book.

    Best breakdown I can find by date (admittedly, not the most exhaustive searching though) is https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Patch_notes.

    With companions, expeditions, and this combat overhaul; It doesn't seem like it's been a slow year at least. Prisms seemed to mostly be visual improvements an improvements to other systems (like letting you have more companions and such), so maybe that makes it seem like less content.

    Just my subjective thoughts on it though.

    No...it would not be fair. They keep releasing banger updates one after the next. They just did a complete building overhaul adding the ability to manage your own settlement in the last major patch which was less than a year ago...and that's only what I can think of off hand as someone who plays every few months or so. The devs really care about this game and how it will grow.

    Ah No Man's Sky... Still a quadrillion miles wide and an inch deep. Reviews coming in on this update confirm what anyone who has played this game already knows: that it adds nothing really in terms of making it a real game with a fun meaningful gameplay loop. You get to have more stuff, upon more stuff, all for for no purpose. What is the point of having a sentinel fight with you or cooler weapons? There is no one to fight with them and no purpose to engage the sentinels, or anything really, except to get a steam achievement..

    This is a pretty good game in VR, even if it is a tiny bit clunky. I tried playing on a regular monitor and it just wasn't the same.

    I'm convinced that a good portion of the VR code is used to render the non-VR imagery.  A lot of the edges seem to be drawn twice, once with blue, and once with red.  I *do* have a lot of issues with my vision, so I'm only 'convinced', not 'totally convinced'.

    Even with the visual wackiness, NMS is a good game.



    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    Actually when they moved the game over to VR accessability, it broke the game for me....I could no longer get past the initial loading screen once they implemented VR.
