The latest free update to No Man's Sky, Worlds Part I (version 5.0), ushers in an entire universe refresh, bringing huge leaps in water and cloud quality, as...
Hello Games have done an admirable job of sticking by their product after a shakey launch. It’s been eight years of consistent updates and I don’t want to take away from how monumental that is. But the updates suck. Most of the new features suck. They’re disjointed and half baked. Every time I redownload that game I’m disappointed. It’s a mid tier survival game that pretends that it’s something else, carried by it’s cool setting and space ships. I hope their next game is better because I want to like these guys.
I’m sorry, but any game putting out free content updates (and major ones, too) over 8 years later is unheard of these days. Like, maybe Minecraft is the only other one I can think of.

Motherfuckers are going to drop a green grass, blue sky, blue water Earthlike just like that, huh?
When this update ships, I’d better be receiving some coordinates.
You just know you’re getting dropped on a poisonous planet from the get go don’t you? 😅
The update is already out. They always release at the same time as they announce their updates.
Again. Damn these guys keep adding stuff. The moment you get bored with some content they add more.
Still missing features that they actively claimed were in the game at release, over 8 years later. Disappointing.
Pretty sure they’ve added everything they claimed, this is one of the reasons why people like them so much. It has all and more.
Dude, for real? Like what?

Valheim’s early access
Ok, good call. So five so far.
Valheim isn’t out 8 years.
