    I personally do not have a tremendous, burning hatred for No Man's Sky. I just don't care for it. There are better games....

    I have heard a lot of different reasons out there, but a lot of them stem from having way too high of expectations, which I can see happening.

    To be honest I wasn't aware that people were disliking No Mans Sky all that much to be honest, as I think the worst I've seen on a review is that it's not lived up to the hype, but not a lot of games do these days.

    Personally No Mans Sky for me is a solid 7/10 game and with the amount of development it can get in the future then there's every chance that it will just keep getting better and better. I do agree that for a game that as been hyped for what, 3 years plus...people may have expected more, and I did as well but that doesn't mean that it's a bad game, just maybe a little disappointing that's all.

    I've played No Man's Sky for sometime and it's fun. However, even the best things can be criticized, here are some of the reasons I came across as to why people dislike this game.
    1. This game was delayed multiple times before it was released. It was first postponed from June to August then it was later delayed for three extra days. I think the developers wanted to be sure they delivered the best but, who knows?
    2. There was alot of hype around about this game. The planets were new to the gaming world and alot of other theories that were being told. Most of them are not in the game, people expected too much and were later dissapointed upon release.
    3. No multiplayer. Multiplayer games are fantastic and this was the biggest fail for the developers.
    4. The game lacks a proper story.
    5. The planets look alike. They aren't so different as they should be.

    The more that I talk to people about it I think that they never really gave it a shot, or that they felt that the shot was too much to give. Maybe people expect too much right away.

    I watched the trailer and it doesn't look as bad as it sounds. I'm yet to know why people dislike it just from reading the comments.
