I'm really pleased for the devs and I like that they stuck to their guns and found their audience but...

as someone who decided to get on board at the start of this year I understand the negative comments. I'd really like to explore the universe and run a space station and whatever else but my 5 hours in the game were all schlepping round basically identical planets collecting different coloured stuff to convert into other different coloured stuff.

all of that said, Im glad NMS exists and that people get a lot out of it even though it's not for me. Hell, I prefer games that are divisive than something that's just blandly acceptable to the largest number of players like. alot of modern AAA titles.

> collecting different coloured stuff to convert into other different coloured stuff.

You are loosely describing almost every computer and board game ever made.

I say this as someone who has a few hundred hours in NMS, and also appreciates people spelling colour properly.
