1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Patch notes

Highly abbreviated summary:
New story mission chain.
Further additions to biome assets, new star system type with different styles of terrain generation.
Many QOL updates.


It's nice and sort of funny to see that they've restored water to some planets' moons. Wild to think it's been maybe around 8(?!) years since that was abruptly removed. Always get some mixed vibes from No Man's Sky updates due to this awkward back and forth between removing and restoring parts.

I have such a hard time getting into the game. I just don't think the flying around feels as good as it should.

-Planets are generic

-The gameplay is boring

-Bad quests

It does not challenge you at all and is colorful as hell. Children love it.

This is probably why I love it. Helps you "clock out" by shutting your brain off after a long day.

Yeah I've tried 5 times and it still feels the same as it did on release. I don't understand it

Think of it as a space tourist game. I like to inspect planets and build unique vacation homes. Main quest? Nah, I'm building an upside-down pyramid on top of a tiny island on a planet almost completely covered in water. Why? Because I want to.

I saw a clip where some gas giant exploration is happening and it showed what appeared to be collapsing terrain. I thought that was pretty neat
