No Man’s Sky has had a great month, coincidentally around the launch of the other big space adventure of the day.

…

No Man’s Sky has been one of the best examples of a video redemption story, and developer Hello Games never stopped expanding the game with new content, and more features. Just recently, the procedural space adventure celebrated its seventh anniversary with the Echoes update, and it doesn’t look like there’s an end in sight to this support.

But do these updates bring back players? The answer is an emphatic yes! Hello Games founder, Sean Murray, recently revealed that No Man’s Sky is having “its biggest month in the last few years.” Interestingly, this is happening across all platforms where No Man’s Sky is available - so PC, consoles, Mac, and even VR.

    Really? You can’t fathom how someone would consider NMS a better game?

    Correct.

    Both games are barely comparable other than using space as a backdrop.

    People who say X things aren’t comparable usually seem to grossly misunderstand how comparisons work. They’re very similar games and even if they weren’t they would still be comparable, the end result of the comparison is just that they would be different.

    I don’t think it’s useful to try and argue which game is better, but I would much rather play No Man’s Sky any day of the week.

    That’s fine but I still can’t fathom why. The only part of it that’s better than Starfield is flying to and from space.
