For me, No Man’s Sky is a bit like a brussels sprout. I
haven’t tried it, but I’ve seen pictures online and heard from enough people that
I can tell it’s just not for me.
But there are plenty of games that fall into that category.
I just don’t have the money- and certainly not the time- to play every game
that gets released, and even among the more well-received titles I often have
to pick and choose. No Man’s Sky is different, though, in that I’m sure I’ve
never read so many opinions or developed such a strong opinion about a game
that I haven’t played.
In all honesty I’m beginning to feel sorry for Sean Murray
and his development team. It’s pretty damn obvious that he’s far from innocent
in all this, but how many other indie developers get this amount of hate thrown
their way?
