No Man's Sky

Late to the show for 4.0 because of being in Hospital. Personally I am loving all of the changes and cant wait to really dive in with a fresh start.

Played through the new expedition and, honestly....I liked the previous one I did better (Polestar, I think I skipped one). Since there wasn't a whole lot of non-VR advancements in this latest update, the expedition kind of lacked some substance and the restriction of only being able to craft things in any of your bases (you have to make several of them) was a pain. I did get to play around with the Survey Visor for a bit which was kinda neat, and also did some of the food-creation stuff which I don't really do much of in the regular game.

The rewards were pretty nice throughout, especially the ship you get for completing the entire expedition. And like other expedition rewards, it can be brought into any saved game.

Just an FYI that No Man's Sky recently had a Mac launch;
Including seven years of updates and built natively for Apple silicon and i5 Intel Macs, No Man's Sky for Mac supports cross-play, PC-to-Mac cross-save, fast loading times using the Mac internal SSD and MetalFX upscaling for console graphics.

Gonna get my Star Wars on with that trench running.

Seemed like a little jab at Starfield with the launching and going through the atmosphere which you can’t do in Starfield.

Although the numbers pale compare to Starfield, I think this new Echoes update has been epic from Hello Games noted in Murray's post. It's been overshadowed by Starfield and deservedly so. But still, all these new additions, stories, campaigns, and I won't bore those not into VR but the improved visuals for PSVR2 is game-changing

What an amazing journey this has been!!

I have been playing this game since launch. I have seen it grow from this empty shell of potential to one of the greatest games that I have played. With all of the updates and struggles, glitches and crashes, this game has been with me thru some really rough times. I have found peace in this game more times than you would think.

My first Trophy on PS4 was earned on 8/9/2016 and today10/22/2023 I earned my Platinum. This makes only my third, I think, in my whole timeline of gaming.

Thank you Hello Games for a great ride and here is to many more hours of enjoyment in Space.
