Hello Games has released a new selection of screenshots related to No Man’s Sky. It looks very promising!
Orbital update drops today, also bringing with it engine improvements and UI refresh.
If you're looking for 'must have' PSVR 2 games then look no further. These are the 10 titles every PSVR 2 owner should have in their library.
If you're wanting more PSVR 2 support, you should probably buy all of these games.
Speak with your wallet!
I'm trying to decide if it's worth holding onto my psvr 2. I enjoy what it has currently, but it seems unlikely to get anything else. Might be better off just waiting for something with more support if that ever comes.
GT7 surprised me, because I hate racing games, but i poured 100 hours into it way too quickly.
I’m looking forward to the Metro VR game this year, and I hope that WW2 dogfighter game releases eventually.
I have most of them 😅
Waiting for a sale on Synapse and Arizona Sunshine 2.....also Metro coming this year looks great.
HelloGames:
Omega: Introducing Update 4.5
The OMEGA update invites everybody to embark upon a new shared interstellar expedition entirely for free, whether they already own No Man’s Sky or not. Featuring a complete overhaul of expeditions, new on-planet missions, claimable pirate freighters, and much more!
From 14:00 GMT, Thursday 15th Feb to 18:00 GMT, Monday 19th Feb, the entire Omega expedition will be open to everyone, entirely for free, even if you don’t own No Man’s Sky!
This is the best time for players old and new to come together and explore the universe.
It looks pretty, but what annoys me is that there's nothing interesting to find on any of these planets - nothing that adds a piece to a gradually unfolding narrative. Yeah there's lots to explore, but not really anything to find. Finding different species of flora and fauna is cool and all, but I feel like that should be a given rather than a central part of the game.
The idea of already knowing, when you land on a gigantic planet, that there's nothing really of note to be discovered, is pretty deflating. It'd be better if there were secrets hidden waiting to be found. There's nothing mysterious about the planets otherwise. They might have atmosphere and a thriving ecosystem, but that just seems kind of empty if there are no larger things to be discovered - no narrative or mystery to be pieced together.
To me, this game seems like Proteus but with more to do. Proteus is fine because it doesn't claim to be anything else than what it is, and it does what it does well. This game on the other hand is like Proteus with more gameplay, but it just doesn't go far enough - it needs SOME kind of narrative to piece together.
Also, have the Hello Games guys ever explained why there are no cities and civilizations on any of the planets? Do people just live in outer space now? But then, where are the remains of their settlements? And why don't they have any kind of home planet? Seems strange that there'd be no civilization on any of the quintillion plus planets in the game. I know it's only an indie game, and I know these extra things mean a LOT more work, but couldn't they just use their imagination, get creative? I don't know, this game could be so much more. Sometimes I just feel like its just a giant tech demo.
Also are there any interiors? Can you board and walk around the big flotillas in space? Or do you just live in your spaceship? Again, things that are conspicuously absent.
We also haven't seen ANY character models, have we? What if you DO encounter another player? Do they even have a model? And what does it look like? Why are there so few people in the world of this game, and why are they ALL space pilots (i.e. the players).
I hope you can take screenshots at any point and share. Would awesome to see locations around the galaxy I'll probably never get to see first hand.
Really excited about this game, I'm hoping for a holiday release.
Release date or GTFO
looks fking ready in my Eyes. Stop with the sony bullshit and just release the game
