Shortly after the launch, No Man's Sky was written off by all but those pious players who stuck with the game. However, the decried title is back with a bang, thanks to a major update from developer Hello Games that gives No Man's Sky something of a significant overhaul.

This is an update that, in the eyes of many, was desperately needed. When No Man's Sky arrived, he saw a reaction from expectant players that was rarely seen in the industry. Although the game offered a whole universe to explore, the title had a mixed critical reception that was quickly getting angry from players who wanted more than the somewhat simplistic gameplay of the craft.

Sky Multiplayer Gameplay

Before long, this reaction turned into something more substantial, with No Man's Sky submitted to Refunds from large retailers. The cause of anger has been the subject of much debate since then, but it stems from the suggestion that pre-liberation No Man's Sky exceeded expectations compared to reality . However, rather than hiding from criticism, Hello Games is set to work

There have been a lot of free updates since launch, Hello Games refines the title to try to improve the overall experience of his players. bring back the kids from truancy. However, No Man's Sky Next is by far the biggest of the group. In fact, it is perhaps the game closest to what was expected at launch

So what has changed with No Man's Sky Next ? The biggest change is that the title now has a real multiplayer. It was one of the biggest critics of the game at launch, with users hoping to meet other players in the mysterious universe of the title. When that did not happen, the explorers of the space in question were disappointed that it was impossible to see each other.

Over time, this has been improved little by little, but No Man's Next Sky delivers the biggest jump of all. Up to four players can team up to face the universe, share missions and team up for dog fights, and players can even choose different races to play. It certainly breaks down what could be a monotonous solo experience, although some elements still feel a little like a chore – especially when hunting for the rarest elements needed to go ahead and discover new ones planets. of the craft is relatively unchanged. Fortunately, Hello Games has reduced the complexity of the gameplay collection that occupies the core of the game. However, there are still things that could be improved here – after all, players can switch to Creative mode to play a mode without collection of resources, but that removes important updates like Atlas Path in the Atlas Rises update. In short, a little grounding would have been nice

With No Man's Next Sky however, it amplifies the diversions available in the game that help make this craft less important . Something that really helps in this respect is that the variety of planets, and what is on them, has greatly improved. Although the launch game had 18 quintillion planets, players were appalled that the fauna and flora generated by the procedure did not give much variety from one world to the other. Fortunately, this has increased considerably, especially with regard to AI species, with much more natural things and crowds of creatures moving more like real animals.

Other minor updates help to improve the overall quality of the game. A choice between the third person and the first person is an interesting option, even if it does not do much outside the user's preferences, while the game is prettier than ever, with improved templates and templates. additions such as rings of asteroids. Although the style has never been a problem with No Man's Sky this is another area of ​​improvement that helps the game to feel much more than its initial form.

The big question about this update is No Man's Sky to finally reach the levels that the players wanted before being released. However, becoming this game is probably impossible. No Man's Sky was a project of changing desires, a test of Rorschach in which it was hoped that the title could never reach

That said, No Man's Sky Next is probably as close as the game world is going to get. Those who have a tolerance for craft as a method of progression will find it much more acceptable this time, while the elements of the title that worked at launch, like its haunting atmosphere, have also been improved. As such, those who were at least attracted to the charms of No Man's Sky at first could find something here.
