Playing an open world action game is always an amazing experience because there tons of places to explore, many NPC’s to meet and plenty of quests to do. Welcome to WtfOpinion and today we are taking a look on top 9 open world action games of 2015.
No Man's Sky is only 1% away from hitting an overall positive review score on Steam, a monumental achievement 6 years post-launch.
Hello Games put in so much work with NMS. It's similar to CDPR, they massively improved Cyberpunk, Hello Games took that multiple steps further and have just poured everything into this title, rather than say f*ck it and move on.
Title says 8 years since launch, blurb says 6 years since launch. Videogamer's AI journos making weird mistakes as usual.
Actually it launched on PS and PC at the same time ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wi... Xbox was later but regardless the article blurb doesn't talk about Xbox, only Steam.
No Man's Sky's July 2024 update gave it a massive PS5 player count boost as new and returning PS5 and PS4 players checked out the Worlds Part 1 changes.
HelloGames must be one of the most patient and devoted game developer in history. All those updates since they launched the game nearly 10 years ago have been free.
Well-done to the team. NMS continue to impress
it's because it always paid off, numbers increased, more people bought...They have done exceptionally well. I wonder what their next game would be.
It’s already been announced. “Light no Fire”, I believe, is what their next release is called.
Next game is Light no Fire.
You should check the trailer for it, looks amazing and shows what they've learnt during NMS years.
I remember when people were attacking them like rabid beasts because the game at launch wasn’t what they had been let to believe. Since that time, they kept delivering.
Yeah, I got the game at launch, such a big letdown. You can barely compare the game as it is today. Big big improvements!
Yup. That is what I meant. They really kept at it. Big dedication for a small team. They never stopped believing in their game/vision I think.
No Man’s Sky may be the best video game redemption of all time. It’s also a better game than Starfield.
Nope. This is bethesda. Also..any improvements to the game will probably be the community through mods.
Fallout 76 is popular now too 10 years and numerous patches later. So it's possible.... though unlikely.
I think the issues with Starfield are on a different level than those with No Man's Sky. The latter lacked features, with many advertised elements missing from the game, and what was included didn't contribute to a fun experience. So fixing it was more about adding content than anything else.
Starfield, on the other hand, has issues with its foundation—ranging from the travel mechanics to how quests are handled. Everything seems flawed, so fixing it would be more akin to remaking it from the ground up.
“Do you think in 10 years time Starfield can have a similar redemption?“
Absolutely not. Bethesda is lazy and wants modders to finish their games.
@Notorious
Okay? Did anyone say anything else?
Crimson just asked what you think will happen with Starfield after 10 years.
But yes, NMS turns 8 next week.
It's Bethesda. They've re-released Skyrim a billion times and it's still riddled with bugs, terrible voice acting, dated graphics (even for it's time), poorly animated trash. The same for Fallout. What makes you think Starfield will be any different lol?
This game is simply amazingly polished right now.
I personally would still love a less 'cartoonish' approach in the art design of a space exploration game, but I am truly amazed of the indefinite space they are able to simulate in NMS.
If you're into space exploration, all with planets, galaxies, black holes, flora & fauna, huge distances, warp jumps, research, minerals, myths, chemistry and so much else, then NMS is a true gem of its game.
In all of this fields SO vastly superior to Starfield.
There's no comparison really. Let alone the excitment of freely approaching and landing on a planet the first time.
Hat's off to Hello Games!
It's a masterpiece in the genre.
Would be dope if more devs supported their games like this that fell a lil short when released smh. This one of the only devs
People can talk about and praise how much of a good comeback Cyberpunk was, but it's nothing compared to what Hello Games has been doing for this game. The level of commitment, ongoing support and free updates, makes this by far the best redemption in gaming history.
Martin Griffiths proved once again that NMS's proprietary engine is one of the game's greatest strengths.
Wow great list!
lol
"You can't stop to play"...
Not sure if I'm being a moron but does that make any sense? Is it supposed to be "Can't wait to play?"
Brilliant list though, 2015 might beat 2007 as the best gaming year in recent memory, in my opinion at least!
waiting for The witcher 3 wild hunt...seems an awesome game
All of those games are coming to xone and pc as well, so great everybody will be able to play them.
