No Man's Sky is probably the biggest comeback story in Videogaming history.

Saying the game was over promised would be an understatement as would saying it seriously under delivered at launch. But I have to take my hat off to Hello Games because over years they clawed their way back. If this had been a AAA game Big Corpa would have cut and run within a year but a relatively small dev studio appears to have done the impossible and righted the ship.

To top that off, they keep releasing content for the game. It would be hard for me to not recommend this game and I look forward to Hello Games future projects.

Steam really needs a neutral option, because this is definitely game/10
The story is generic scifi slop, but it's a means to an end and that end is a game.

The bones are there but it misses on so many fundamentals. Like the entire upgrade system is totally useless, since you're going to be replacing your weapon every 5min. Sure you could constantly upgrade them as intended with a ton of material investment OR you could just wait till you hit end game and upgrade them the once. The inventory system is painful, it throws things at you constantly and then punishes you for being full at the most inopportune times. They try to compensate in some ways with a "lost and found" that mails you some of the things that drop in your missions but I'm still not sure what it decides to send you. It might just be boss loot but NOT boss loot from the boss arenas?

Some of the grind seems pretty decent other grind is like... WOW, really?.
The Cash shop also suffers from some pretty aggressive pricing.

Given time and if Nexon pushes it in the right direction I think this could eventually be a good game. It could also be a really bad game, time is funny like that.

Am I going to keep playing it? eh probably.
Would I recommend it as it stands? ... probably not.

At the end of the day I think a Mixed review is a pretty fair place for the game to be in it's current state. I truly hope that it improves over time and I can eventually change this review to a recommendation.

Edit//Update

So quick rundown on how "unique" weapons work/upgrade, you need multiple duplicates to fully upgrade a "unique" weapons power/special effect. Which is fine it's a grind game they want you to grind.

Thing is I noticed in the Battle Pass on the free track they are super generous and give you FOUR of the FIVE duplicate unique weapons you would need to fully upgrade the Launcher type weapon that they have on this season(?)

That is some grade A manipulative BS in my book if ever I have seen it.

The only thing more entertaining than the game itself is the veritable salt mine it has created. The amount of people malding over its success is equal parts hilarious and cathartic.

That bit aside, it is an Early Access game and as such it is rough around the edges but it has a decent foundation. IF (and I stress IF) the Developers follow through with bug fixes and some content updates throughout the year.... I think it might actually have GOTY potential. On the other hand if they don't it could certainly fall off in a couple months but honestly that's still better than most AAA developers manage these days.

As Early Access experiences go, I'm certainly not disappointed and I'm looking forward to see where the game goes from here.

At the time of Writing I'm ~34hrs into the game and it is very much a progression of For The King and having just reached the 3rd act. Partly because I'm playing a few different games with a few groups.

The game is definitely not without its flaws and bugs but the Devs thus far seem to be active and receptive to input. There is currently a road map that spans into 2025 and I'm both enjoying it now and hopeful that the improvements/additions to the game will have me continuing to enjoy it into the future.

All things considered as of now I give it a thumbs up.

This game was fun when it was about Warframes

They keep tacking on content island after content island that seemingly desperately try to either minimize or virtually remove Warframes from the content loop. Almost like the game is desperately trying to be anything and everything except Warframe.

Problem is I was here to play Warframe, maybe I'll check out Soulframe when that eventually comes out. At least I will be going into that not expecting to play Warframe.

Edit: Seems like DE is finally maybe moving back towards the core game loop of Warframe focusing more one Warframes and Warframe related Tile sets after trying everything under the sun to not be Warframe.

I'd upgrade my review from Negative to Neutral but there is no such thing under Steam. So I guess it stays Negative for the foreseeable future but we're getting closer to maybe being Positive again. Kind of a shame that newer players will still have to slog through the non Warframe content at some point.

I give this a recommendation with two GIGANTIC caveats.

Caveat the first: This game NEEDS mods...
You're looking probably at least 5+ just to meet the barest of bones QoL to really make the game shine. Like having an actual avatar instead of being a set of disembodied hands or substantively interacting with the environment. Once you get through those it really starts to shine. It doesn't seem like there is a huge difference between looking at a floating hand vs being able to see your arm but there really is.

Caveat the second: The Price
IMHO this game is NOT worth the asking MSRP of $60, especially with all the tinkering that it needs under the hood. If you are going to buy it my advice is to buy it on sale.

At the time of this writing I think I've spent about as much time fighting with mods as I have playing the game, but I think I've finally hit a decent balance and can stop playing the introduction to the game on loop while trying to make sure things aren't going to explode.

There are a lot of other high fantasy VR games out there but from what I have seen of most of them at best they look like highly polished tech demos. While the Elder Scrolls VR Port certainly shows it's age it's the most complete world. It probably doesn't hurt that I've spent years avoiding the franchise so the experience is also completely new to me.

Even if I feel the need to tap on the Caveat sign one final time.

It can get kinda formulaic but the devs do (for better or worse) seem to try to keep things from getting too stale. And while it isn't rapid fire updating, the game does get updated periodically (at the time of writing)

Still a fun little game.

Lets start off with the negative, I absolutely HATE that this is under the EA umbrella because EA destroys everything they touch. So best of luck to the studio and developers because you're gonna heccin need it....

That aside, this is a superb game, the visuals, the music and last but certainly not least the gameplay is phenomenal.

First and foremost if you are going into this expecting Viking Minecraft, stop now because this is not that thing. Yes you can build your own base but this game is incredibly linear. Unlike Minecraft the bioms for example are essentially content gated. And the answer to pretty much any hangup you encounter is "you need to beat the next boss". For some that will be a selling point.

Secondly while is a fine base game but I wouldn't recommend it without mods.

I've also lost some faith NOT because of the apparently contentious stamina changes in H&H, I really didn't notice those nor do (I believe) any of the mods I use roll those food changes back, tho it is possible I'm running like 22+ mods, most of which are solidly QoL.

Where I actually lost faith was the Obliterator, which was essentially the implementation of the long asked for "trash can" which instead of being a simple base recipe, instead requires jumping through several layers of hoops. Including finding a randomly spawning vendor NPC somewhere in the world. Then can't even be place near your stockpiles (read inside your base) because for some reason it has an added AoE that will damage/destroy structures.

It took the simplest of QoL asks and cranked over complication to 11.

That more than anything else is why I worry for the future of this game.

When I was first exposed to raft (years ago) it was pretty basic and didn't have any sort of real structure or end game. Eventually they added the antenna and first non island structure to the game but that was about where I lost interest.

Since then this game has apparently expanded significantly to the point where I occasionally don't even recognize it but in the best possible way. It's great to play with friends and every time we run into something new it's been another "WHOA, this is awesome!" moment.

Axolot has IMO nailed this out of the park.
