No Man's Sky Remnant Trailer

Issue with that is I pre-order the game before release based on false information. Gave up playing after 6 months because it sucked. When they finally got it to what they initially promised. It became almost unplayable by the amount of grinding that had to be done to even earn enough to by a freighter. Again gave up playing. So now sits on my shelf part of my collection.
Oh almost forgot when they updated they corrupted my save file so I lost all the progress I made in that 6 months. So that pissed me off as well.
Nothing is ever perfect, but would you have preferred they did nothing, ran with the money and pissed on you? Now they just managed to disappoint you more than once. Many others seem to be happy now. For free. While the vast majority of other companies wouldn't even bother SELLING you updates.
Sure, they didn't manage to appease 100% of customers, but they really tried to make up for it. That should count for something, shouldn't it? -
It's decent. Exploring and collecting different things and upgrading gear is kinda nifty. Late game stuff like settlements and fleets are time gated and annoying. Planetary vehicles confused the hell out of me. Building a vehicle pad and summoning it is much more effort than just using the literal spaceship I just parked. Combat feels... Bad honestly. There's a ton of weapon attachments but only like 2 feel viable but maybe that's just me.
I remember space travel feeling pretty good. It's not bullshit like starfield (where you load screen instead of actually taking off or landing) and not complex like elite dangerous (where entry has to be planned to land near your target), but a nice arcade-y feel with sick visuals.
If you can pick it up for 20 or 30 bucks I'd say it's worth if you're looking for a moderately chill game. There's a ton to discover but it gets samey after a while.
I got a broken mining laser and just that gets me so far.

Freighters aren't difficult to get now...
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
They just straight up give you a freighter after 3 hyper jumps IIRC
:::And when you say now, it's been that way since about a year after the game was released.

The motorbike can be fun, getting big jumps can be awesome, and you can explore caves easier. Other than that, yeah.

Honestly, I would rather pay for quality than be forced to accept a bad update like this one, at least with paid DLC you know what to avoid. The game is still wide as the ocean, deep as a puddle. It's becoming a salad of minigames without any regard to its original premise - a lonely space traveller.
I will play Snowrunner if I want to play offroad trucker, this update is another cheap imitation from HG.

Needs more conveyor belts.
Satisfactory?

Ive been thinking about buying this game for ages, but im just wondering if its gotten better from the original version which i believe was a total flop?
The promise of the original game was never fulfilled but the game we now have is good in its own way.
Don’t expect “lone space adventure” and you’ll be ok. The game is a survival game at its core and requires you to gather materials . . . In space!
Some people (me) can’t stand games that are just well-disguised work, no matter how pretty.

Pretty sure the ***chill *** portion of the fanbase will disagree with the survival aspect of the game and note how mundane it is, unless you blindfold yourself and never use any scanner.

The great thing is that you don't have to interact with it if you don't want to. And I'm not sure you can call a game who people have played for over a thousand hours shallow.

The important thing for me is that they didn't just shrug and move on to something else. The devs take the issues and suggestions and work towards a better game each time. What other company has completely overhauled a game like this?

Nah, the length of an artwork does not indicate depth, tons of TV shows lasting over 10 seasons and 42 mins per episodes and they are still shallow, still don't pack a punch like the good old BBC Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Alec Guinness plays the role to perfection.
But remember, that's where they spent their development time, instead of improving the original concept... Oh, wait, they still have the sandbox as the shield to widen the ocean as much as possible.

A good game doesn't have to be that deep. As a matter of fact, I don't have time to invest in a game (or show) that deep. Give me endless 42 minute episodes of easy to follow formulaic slop that I can watch as I cook dinner for the fam after getting off work.
NMS has found their niche of easy fun mini games in a vast somewhat predictable universe. They aren't trying to capture players who are looking for the kind of deep stories and mechanics like you and that's okay.
Another good example: My uncle is a father of 5 with a job who occasionally has time to jump onto NMS and run a quick mission. Over the last decade he's racked up 1k+ hours of distraction. 10/10.
