No Man's Sky - A Procedurally Generated Space Explorer

Post » Fri Jan 16, 2015 7:06 pm

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmwG6Sj1Yfg is a procedurally generated space explorer game that gives the player an entire universe to explore. Each star seen in the map is a travelable location that will contain it's on content. It will be multiplayer and is steadily gaining features. In my opinion THIS is really what being "next gen" is all about. I cant wait to play it.

For those who dont know procedurally generated means that as you travel or arive at a location the game litterally builds everything you see. There are no load screens in doing this. Think Minecraft but not block based.

I get why people are hyped for this game, but I honestly don't think it's going to be that great. :shrug:

I hope I'm wrong but it's my prediction for disappointment of the year.

A lot of people thought the same about Minecraft too. So long as they are improving the game and adding more content I think it has potential to become a great game.
