The rocky start of what felt like the end of No Man's Sky almost doomed it to its entire player base. Sticking around from the beginning due to Sean Murray's big vision and amazing concept only made me appreciate the game more as time progressed. The introduction of a more solid story, expeditions, multiplayer, and general expansion has re-introduced this game as one of the most solid comebacks of all-time.

The game is a drastic improvement from its original in Dying Light. Performance mode brings it to a whole new level with 60fps and parkour feels better than ever! The subtle changes to night time is much better as well, making for a more playable experience for beginners while still keeping that tension present as you run through the streets and jump across rooftops. The relationship elements within the game could be improved but start to get better towards the end.
