    So I guess it was an "on purpose leak" as some Steam users have now discovered xD

    Is this from the guy who spent 2000 to get the game ?

    No interest at all. First off, release is very close. Secondly, I find what was done distasteful. Lastly, I can wait.


    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Considering both the financial and technical means the developer had at his disposal i believe that this is pretty solid. I will be buying NMS when it releases.

    To me, I don't care how much money they had.  I only care about the final product.  If its not really impressive then I'm not wasting money on it.

    With the imminent launch of the game, i think will wait and see, but i think the game is going to be a very marmite experience, will be interesting to see what level of multiplayer is in the game at launch, assuming it has some that is. :o

    Isn't this game purely single player?  That's what it says on steam

    I'm now semi-hyped now after seeing both videos. Just waiting for GMG to put it 20% off before launch like they do with most games. I might be hyped but not $60 hyped!

    Well, technically no, it's one huge and I mean HUGE persistent universe and the creators have stated several times that the chances of 2 people meeting one another is extremely rare.
    No it says, it's a single player game on the steam store page.

    Anyone else get a very Destiny vibe from the first few seconds, I might be late to the party, haven't been following, but UI, menu, graphically?

    But it isnt, you'll be even able to do pvp, but its quite rare to meet other players, maybe you'll meet other players more often the closer you get to the centre of the universe.

    why is it given the supposedly the largest universe in the known universe with more planets then any game has ever tried that the first planet that a player lands on looks remarkably the same as all the videos? Maybe finding a Gas Giant will provide diversity I found one last night in another game

    was the voice in the video the developer? ha!

    Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.

    Please do not respond to me

    What makes a game multiplayer? if not the possibility to meet other players, even its quite rare?

    Single player.

    They may of said multiplayer long ago, but that's not what it is.

    What makes a game multiplayer? if not the possibility to meet other players, even its quite rare?
    What makes a game multiplayer? actually being able to play with other people for one thing.
    And yes it is listed on Steam as being a single player game, which given advertising standards etc. I can only imagine its listed as single player, is because the version they are selling doesn't have features that are normally associated with multiplayer games ie. being able to play with your friends etc.
    And why should it be rare to meet other players? unless it is instanced in such a way that it precludes contact with other players?
    Having a game being 'online' does not make it a multiplayer game, and as previously stated, just because you get to name stuff in the game if you are the first to discover it, does not make it a multiplayer game. So until we actually see some instances of there being actual multiplayer gameplay, i will go with the steam description of it being a single player game.

    I think a lot of players have been mislead and they are going to be suckered into buying a single player game when they were expecting a sandbox multiplayer experience.

    That would be the wisest course of action, imho.

    But a game can have "multiplayer" features even if it does not allow players to "play with friends". 

    Consider the faction manipulation in Elite Dangerous. Every player that delivers trade goods to a certain space station affects the power of the faction that holds that station. It doesn't matter if the player is playing in "multiplayer mode" or playing in their own single-player instance of the game. 

    In E:D, every player affects the events and economy of the galaxy, regardless if they play it as an MMO or as an entirely single-player game. The same could apply in NMS...

    It is single player, but with the possbility to meet other players, so it has multiplayer features and even pvp, even though its quite rare.

    Single player adventure games are not for me, especially when there is not much to do but to explore liveless like worlds. Concept was good, but they failed to make it feel like a true MMO.

    No Man's Sky never tried to be an MMO, and you can do alot in NMS besides exploration.

    And that pervasive avoidance of giving direct answers is the thing that makes people believe their own fantasises of the game play.

    "Well, they didn't say it's NOT, possible, therefore it MUST BE possible !"

    Why would any developer spend 100's of hours building and testing a feature of a game that will almost NEVER be used by players ? That's simply nonsensical.
