No man sky review

‘No man’s lie’

No man’s Sky claimed to have a vast map of a galaxy with quadrillions of planets along with no loading screens and no planet to be the same this was all promised along with the promise of multiplayer.

The demo we saw showed us massive dinosaur like alien’s colourful surroundings and appropriate ambient background music, but what we got instead was nothing like Hello games promised what we got was five hundred planets what looked unique on the surface and then it all become the same planets with a different colour scheme.

Ships were too easy to attain and along with three aliens only also aliens what looked like a four-year-old drew them. There were loading screens every time you went FTL and the multiplayer was a lie. Tasks became repetitive and sometimes hard to attain due to sentinels stopping you for destroying a rock. It is true the police force of the game would stop you for destroying a rock on planet.

Lore of the game was dull and uninteresting and hard to find native alien life form was not a challenge and the space combat was easy to avoid. However, the game was said to be relaxing and have a very chilled mood which the game does have along with vibrant colours and unique main alien races.

End game is a joke after the entire time it took the player to make their way to the centre of the galaxy they are treated with a new galaxy with primary and secondary colours swapped. With this combined with the massively anti-climactic end it really is like watching a slow firework go off only to see no colours and hear a quiet poof.

In overall conclusion the game had hundreds of promises which nearly all of them not all but nearly all were never kept and what could go down as one of the worse endings in a game in history. This game was only ever to give the player a chill mood and relaxation with vibrant colours.

This game had developers who lied and exaggerated their way through pre-release and blamed players when the game failed to respond.

So this game gets one out of five stars.
