No man’s sky also did it because of lazy. People may have forgotten, but that game released as pure hot garbage and only got better after tons of updates.

Nonsense, those of us who weren't plugged into gaming journos 24/7 enjoyed it on release. I couldn't have cared less that it didn't have multiplayer or whatever. I wasn't even aware of any controversy at the time.

There aren't that many first person space exploration games outside of nms and elite and nms is much easier to get into. It was fun, and still is

And I don't count starfield because starfield is just a loading screen simulator

Being a hot mess and being enjoyable are not mutually exclusive. 1.0 was a buggy mess with worlds that had the depth of a puddle populated by Mr potato head animals, the same half dozen outposts, and a suit screaming LIFE SUPPORT FALLING the moment you stepped out of the ship.

Doesn't mean it wasn't enjoyed by some.

That's not true of it now? I love No Man's Sky, and have since launch, but still, it only takes about 10 minutes to see everything there is on one planet

It's still pretty trash. Every update adds new boring activities but the core gameplay loops still get old quickly and the game is an endlessly scaling grind to nowhere. It's "redemption story" is drastically overrated.

It has millions of players who enjoy it.

And millions of people enjoy trash mobile games that throw microtransactions at you every couple of minutes. Popularity is not an indicator of quality.

Lol "my opinion is actually objective fact, gentlesir"
