    No Man’s Sky: I’ve tried playing it and just end up getting bored. Every once in a while I’ll go back and check it out again, feeling like I somehow didn’t give it a fair shake, but remain underwhelmed.

    Maybe next time…

      This was the game that made me realize I prefer story over infinite sandbox games.

      Even after it started getting praise due to all the updates, it just felt… empty every time I went back.

        I really like sandbox games, but this one just didn’t grab me (at least not yet).

      Something about the way you fly in that game isn’t satisfying.

        It was better in the beginning I think… they gave you more control now but honestly it feels less satisfying

          You need a feeling of momentum, like spiderman swinging or the space battles in battle star galactica

      People KEEP saying that they “fixed” that game but every time I try it it’s still a pretty generic survival game in space. I don’t see how it’s even close to what they promised.

        It’s really not even a survival game.
