No Man's Sky = No Fun

User Rating: 4 | No Man's Sky PS4

I was really excited about this game. I am an older gamer (56) who can no longer compete at the level I would like on the MP games, so I have resigned myself to play single player games. This game was really interesting for the first 10 hours or so, but quickly, and I mean quickly, became a dud. At first, the exploration of the planets and the mining of resources was addictive, I wanted to upgrade my suit, multi-tool, and ship. However, it soon became apparent that I was in an endless cycle of drudgingly going to planets mining items and selling them for upgrades, and the ships did not act any differently than those before. The planets were not really any different, and the NPCs had become a joke. I also had several instances where the game would lock up on my PS4, I would enter my ship and try to launch but nothing would happen...even after reboots. You can not load previous saves, only the last two. I got this game from Amazon and have already traded it back in. I think I may get B1 and the next COD and retry MP.....
