Poll: Are You Still Excited for No Man's Sky on PS4?

Yep still looking forward to it, very much.
I don't do hyped....never did.

I'm possitive this game won't be for everyone (what game is though, heh) but from what I understand about it, it looks to me like the perfect game to play in between the more 'serious' games.
Totally zen for just an hour or two, three.....yep, looking forward to it.

I'm still very much looking forward to it, I've dreamt of playing a game like this since the original Elite. It doesn't need a good story because I can just make my own.

The reason for some of the delays was probably the lawsuit with Sky, they didn't want them using the Sky part of No Mans Sky. Luckly they won after a 3year lawsuit so its definitely not going to be delayed again, i'am still looking forwards to it.

It is the only game that I want this August, so I will get it for sure!

No, it looks boring. I remember the developers saying something like people will get bored playing it so yeah.

_{@AmyStarling Please watch the language}

Th concept of such a big universe is interesting but I can see the game getting very repetitive and feeling like deja vu quickly - maybe the deja vu won't come because people will get bored of the game-play. I can't see many persevering beyond a month or two... Not based on the info I have read about what the game actually involves...

I love it can't wait. The Last Guardian made me even wait longer and i need that game.

I used to be really hyped for this game and still am to a certain extent. However, usually when a game release date comes up we get a trailer or two and some behind the scenes footage etc. I feel like this game is doing the opposite. We haven't seen new footage in months and there is no launch trailer in bound.

I think this game will be crushed by the weight of its own hype... it's just an average indie that somehow got hyped as a major AAA release which will inevitably result in bad reviews and people being dissapointed

Well this is one vote where I am in the majority! At last!

@get2sammyb I think I'm a certain demographic! lol

Looking forward to it. To go where no sim has gone before.

I am looking forward to it there are so many games I have spent 100's of hours on and I can see this being another one. I am looking forward to the creative names people come up with for planets and see which ones get past the game designers rules.

One of the first things I do in any open world game, albeit SP or MMO is to explore every corner, particularly those I have no earthly place being. Two months is not going to diminish my excitement for a game that is pretty much just that.

I was never excited for it. I think that's because I don't actually understand what I'm supposed to do in the game. Are people just expected to fly around to different planets and... what? Go sightseeing? If anyone feels like explaining it to me I'd be very greatful.

The hype certainly decreased in my part. But i'm curious and looking forward to play it. Hope it's good.

Excited for my Art book and vinyl

I watched a trailer with my bro the other day and we were both bored out of our minds.

I pre-ordered the sixty quid special but cancelled. The delay gave me time to think about it and thought. Do I really want to fly about exploring, collecting, shooting, defending and shopping?
The Answer was a deafening no.
The End

I reckon people will be surprised at how good this game will be.

Im glad it was delayed, to many game out right now , they delayed it at the right time for me.

Yeah I'm still looking forward to this and it's likely to be the last game I buy until the end of the year. I just hope the concept doesn't become too repetitive as the game goes on

I kinda forgot about it..
Still keen to give it a go though, love games in space.

I'm not as excited for the game as I was, let's say, a few months ago.

But I still want to give it a go.

I've never been excited for No Man's Sky Represent!

I just hope it doesn't end up a damp squid like Mighty No.9 with all these delays. It was a highly anticipated game for myself when I first seen it but my enthusiasm has started to wane of late

I love exploring in games. That is one of the many reasons I'm such a big fan of RPG's/open world games. I can't wait for this!

Looks boring since the beginning and it'll be a disappointment for people who still excited, I'm calling right now.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Me to brother! Seriously though this is my most anticipated game of the year, probably for several years. Don't really care of it isn't for everybody, I can already tell that it IS for me. That sweet limited edition and vinyl sound track definitely help!

I'm getting the upgraded ship with hyperdrive. Catch me if you can

@DualWielding totally 100% agree with what you said. I think it sums it up perfectly.

This is tied with Zelda:BotW for my most anticipated game! I've been waiting for both for over 2 years so August is nothing, just a hop, skip and a jump away!

I am the meh not interested in the game all that much but I will Check out the reviews. The reviews will have to be praise the game enormously to peek my interest.

I love space combat and exploration games but I'm not sure what the end game will be for no man's sky.

Whilst I would have preferred a bigger budget and development team to counter the slightly concerning, maths-generated procedural worlds which will no doubt create that randomness to the detriment of gameplay, I am still absolutely a day-one buyer.

Why? The inherent sci-fi geekiness in Sean Murray, the seemlessness of jumping into your ship and flying into the atmosphere, space and anywhere you choose, the size and scope of it all - and the mystery and sense of potential wander around each planet.

In-between intense GTA Online and Destiny sessions, this title will provide a fantastic triumvirate of PS4 gaming for months - and I've also pre-ordered the highly promising soundtrack.

Post Brexit, I welcome another potential world of escapism and this game will no doubt be adored by fans such as I who want to fully immerse ourselves in the world. I'd be keen to see more previews though which showcase the space battles 👌

It looks very much like Proteus in space.

Not pre-ordered as I'm not 100% confident it's going to be an amazing game. I'm looking forward to it based on the potential of what it could be though.

I don't understand why delays would hamper anyone's excitement for a game.

The game remains the same as it did when you were excited for it, in fact over time it's probably getting better, so why lose interest just because you have to wait for it longer?! Find that weird...

@Dodoo Mysteries of the human mind. Best example is probably The Last Guardian. Had it come out years ago like people thought it would, I would have been doing cartwheels around the room in anticipation leading up to release. I still look forward to playing it now of course but excitement levels are somwhat reduced for reasons I cannot quite comprehend.

@LieutenantFatman True, we work in mysterious ways!

Last Guardian is a good example and I suppose if I'd been looking forward to it for that long my interest may have decreased too.

Having said that I've been waiting patiently for the next Red Dead and my interest is only going up as time goes by. Maybe that's because I keep expecting it actually being announced some time soon?!

I am looking forward to reviews and I will make my mind up. I love the concept but I need to know it will keep my interest. I hope it does, I want it to be the little game that could...

Never was really looking forward to it. There's been numerous opportunities to win me over and it still hasn't happened. I think this is just one of those games that needs to release and be experienced. Most games I can tell right away if it's something to be hyped for or if it's on track to be complete garbage. No Man's Sky is still kind of a mystery.

@DualWielding
The hype around this was what happens when fanboys go insane. Back around the time this game was announced there weren't too many big AAA exclusives to get hyped for on PS4 and so PushSquare and the Sony Defense Force went on a rampage telling people like me that while I may prefer bigger budget games, they mostly suck (this still happens to some degree) and it's all about the indies, which, lets be real, most indies suck too, so that was a horrendous argument. And of course most indie games have ended up like most 'AAA' games... above average at best, terrible at worst. This one looks like it will turn out entirely average because it seems like too ambitious a project for such a small team, but I'm hoping for the best. At the end of the day, a game is a game, no matter what the budget or size of the studio, and the more good ones the better.

I want to play it but not enough to pay full retail price day 1. Pretty sure it won't hold my attention and I'll get bored of it before too long, even though I like the look of the game.

Got the limited edition incoming with all the goodies, you could say I'm well excited.

Still really hyped for NMS - I have said from day one that this game will appeal most to a certain demographic, and I definitely fall into that demographic. Can't wait, and personally very glad they're taking the extra time to polish it up.

I'm going to have to get PS Plus to get the most out of it, and that's okay. I rather enjoy games where I can kind of set my own priorities. There's just a hint of Animal Crossing's freedom about it, and I really like that.

I'm just curious as to how Sky felt this could in any way be confused with their products.

I could understand with Microsoft's SkyDrive, since that could be confused as the name of a product from Sky. So similarly, if the game had been called "Sky Explorer" or something along those lines, the same would apply.

But "No Man's Sky"? I just don't see it. Seems to be just a case of Sky throwing their weight around unnecessarily. What about all the marketing types who use the irritating bullsh*t phrase "blue sky thinking" - how much do they have to pay out every time they use it? Ah yes, nothing - because it can't possibly be confused with a Sky product.

Anyway... yes, I'm still hyped!

Although I'm still interested, the hype is gone.
