    Huh? No, I’m literally talking about coop PvE. It would be nice to have a challenge when I am in space or when I’m trying to build a base.

        Lol. What? I like single-player games, but I mostly agree with this person. Most of the challenging games are SP (primarily) all the souls/souls likes are SP. Not liking NMS is not even close to being the same as not liking SP games. People are allowed to not like NMS. It’s boring and grindy and it (to me) never feels like you’re progressing in any meaningful way.

        If you like it, that’s fine. It doesn’t mean anyone who doesn’t doesn’t like SP games.

          That makes sense, it sounds like you just want a game to offer you a challenge vs being a chill experience. NMS, Satisfactory, Minecraft etc are very much not that game.

          Your other comments made it sound like you don’t value a game unless it’s a competitive multiplayer experience.

            Those weren’t my comments, but I do agree with them. I like MC and Satisfactory. I don’t like NMS. I like chill games, but I don’t generally like ones that make you grind the same crap continuously for seemingly no reward or reason.

            NMS is not a perfect game. People are allowed to dislike it without disliking and single specific attribute of it. I don’t like NMS probably for similar reasons to not liking Starfield. It’s just pointless junk to keep me playing longer, without any reason for me to actually do so. What am I going to get out of continuing? Seeing more similar randomly generated stuff?

        Yeah, imagine wanting to play games with people you actually know in meatspace. You might even have to touch grass. Horrid thought.

          I mention it only because NMS, for all its co-op play, really is just a single player game friends can play together.

          I take it back, it doesn’t sound like you dislike single-player focused games, it sounds like you actually hate cooperation and prefer PVP because you prefer fights.

            I’m not the interlocutor with whom you were being rude. I’m a separate third person poking fun at your attitude.

              I don’t understand how it’s rude, all the comments were basically shitting on the game for not having PvE. That sounds like someone who doesn’t value a game unless it’s competitive multiplayer based, which NMS most definitely is not.

                Did I say anything about competitive play? No… infact my group hates mmos because it’s not a chill environment. We want something our old asses can pick up and play randomly between life and have something fun and challenging. I really don’t get where I’m bashing the game, we all bought it when it came out and was billed as a coop space sim. The game is fantastic and hello games really has turned it around completely, but our wishlist includes challenging pve.
