Hello Games is finally giving in to clamors from gamers asking for overhaul of controversial "No Man's Sky" and will include "foundation update" due this week. Foundation update will add base-building feature and other contents in preparation for what developer referred to as "things to come."
Ok, it is a fact that "No Man's Sky" is a classic example of title that fails to live up to expectations albeit being a launch title for PlayStation VR. Our previous GameNGuide review referred to the game as something that suffers ailment and needs immediate cure. Luckily, the people behind "No Man's Sky" is already pushing with changes and topping the list is base-building feature. Isn't it great compared to simply explore and explore without any directions at all?
Hello Games also stressed that they are not turning deaf ears on "No Man's Sky" feedbacks. In fact, a team is working round the clock for more than nine weeks just to lay out the foundation update. However, gamers shouldn't be too excited because this update will never sport all that they are asking for. On the contrary, "No Man's Sky" foundation update is just paving the way for future changes and contents, GameSpot said.
Meanwhile, the developer also acknowledges that there is much controversy and drama behind "No Man's Sky" since release date. Hello Games said that they feel the intensity of feedbacks - negatives specially, and the team is already making changes. All was heard and this foundation update provides "first small step" as the game progresses on, the team added.
To recall, an investigation was launched in UK last September against "No Man's Sky." To cut the chase short, the whole point is allegation that its game adverts is misleading. There are accusations that Hello Games promised too much yet failed to deliver what players are expecting.
