They have already started showing ads of the game. It certainly looks pretty but nothing shown, so far, is technically impressive or even indicative of any actual game behind the visuals. Unless they plan to release it soon, this just feels like building up a huge hype train years ahead of launch and that they haven’t learned their lesson from NMS.

Is it just me that is reminded of valheim when watching this? They feel quite similar

NMS is my Zen game. I have over 500 hours in it just in the last two years. I know the game is not for everybody. I have friends who don’t understand why I hop through the galaxies, explore systems, hunt for ships, play the expeditions, and build base after base after base, even though so much can feel repetitive for some. But for me, it became my new Minecraft - “one more brick”. I love the expansive feel of it, and find the isolation relaxing. If i want to see others i can hop over to the Anomaly or hit the community build areas. I cannot wait to see what Hello Games has come up with.

I’m quite excited to see what comes of this. With the amount of stuff to do in No Man’s Sky, I’m interested what other systems, aside from procedural generation and base building, they will transfer over to this high fantasy genre. The dragonflight mechanic seems similar to how the starships steer, although more refined to a natural looking way of flying.

I didn’t know “single planet” is a genre now
