I could never do the witches dlc ending through combat, I sucked and just sneaked my way through.
I made liberal use of time stop any time I got caught. Not like I needed those mana potions for anything afterwards.
True enough for the exterior, but the absolute last leg was brutal for me.
Same deal there. Only I didn't scour every inch of the place since I knew I was nearing the end. That plus finding out how to stick to the upper floors helped keep things manageable with only a few time stop stab fests.
Stay strong, Pixie. It's a trap, I bet most of the worlds don't even have anything pink on them!
Also, count me in on not really having the time or interest in NMS. The hype around it felt like a Rorschach test for "space game you wanted", like it was trying to be all things to all people. That may not be fair to the actual game, but from the outside it does seem like a lot of procedurally generated content in place of any particularly deep content, or an interesting narrative or context for the exploration. And frankly, the more practical reason is that I've got more than enough games I am eager to play. Nothing against those enjoying it, of course - just seems like it's not for me.
Hell, the new Deus Ex comes out in about ten days, that's going to eat my free time from the word 'go'.
Yeah it's pretty much exactly a procedureally generate sprawl you explore around in while topping off needs and harvesting stuff, building slightly better stuff.
It's a fairly shallow gameplay wise and narrative wise. But the exploration is satisfying and so is finding the interesting combinations of things the system has spit out.
I'm enjoying it, but I think I came in with proper expectations.
I feel like this is the younger generation of gamers big time to get "Molyneaux'd" into being overly hyped for a thing that doesn't actually exist in the way they want it.
It really does not help that this is a small team indie project that got hyped and promoted as if it were a AAA title by Sony.
While I like the game, that's not a defense because they have also priced the game at a triple AAA point.
That makes me very unsympathetic to the "Small indie team project" defense. Again, this is from someone who really likes the game, but I'm not convinced it's really $60 worth of content in this game. It feels like a $30 downloadable only title in its current state and IMO, needs a lot of work to go from where it is now to something I think makes up the total promise of what it could offer.
Being a sassy hot bitch in Vampire Colons is a pretty fun way to spend my evenings. Most of the men I've spoken to roll over pretty quickly and I wonder if this is life imitating art or a bit of wish fulfilment? Doesn't bother me either way; it's making my stat upgrade choices nice and easy
Called it a night last night after working my way into a haunted house when yet another lightblub blew up and spooked me. Come on game, don't be like that

Flashbacks! I had goosebumps the entire time I spent in that house when I first played Vampire Colons, many moons ago!
Enderal, the Skyrim overhaul mod from the folks that did Nehrim for Oblivion is out now in English. Supposed to be great, was out in German and had really positive impressions.
You know that one bird? The one I've been hunting to finish the species list on this planet? The one I couldn't scan or shoot for the past four days (or is it five now, i don't recall)? I GOT THE SUMBITCH.
And then, I leave the planet in celebration, triumphant and I'm greeted with half a dozen pirates. I killed em all! Getting the hang of leading shots. Also mined out asteroids and ducking through the holes makes light work of the shitty pirates. Loads of Iridium and Croleum to boot
And the next planet I land on is a toxic one. Also..... PINK!

I think I'm going to stop playing NMS for now. It really needs a few patches I feel to be in a genuinely fun and playable state, especially as it has more than a few issues that detract from the experience. Once it solves them, like the difficulty in finding species to scan in certain circumstances and similar, I think I'll go back to it. Plus they'll probably fix the PC performance issues.
I don't regret my purchase, I just wish I had waited to purchase this game later after the QoL fixes.

Yeah, I can't nail down how I feel about the game. On the one hand, it's super pretty and the environments are just so awesome to walk around and explore. On the other hand, there's not much to do in the environments. But on the other other hand, I'll find myself playing longer, because I want to see what's over the next ridge (or on the next planet, when I get that far)
Over all, I think the game is pretty great as something low-impact and relaxing to play. It definitely needs some changes to scanning though, agreed.

Well, my Vive came in. After some setup and sync gymnastics, I got it up next running. I know this has been said, but full VR room scale sword and board against a life sized skeleton in Vanishing Realms is one of my favorite gaming moments of all time. So good.
It's made me almost forget about NMS completely. Although as a short experiance I think I may be done with it fairly quickly unfortunately.

I have a friend who considers NMS to be a version of "solitare" type gameplay; something she does to just relax and groove into the game.
I personally am glad I can't afford the game yet, as seeing what they have in the pipeline (base building, the owning of capital ships, etc) makes me happy to think I could come into the game with even more to do.
I think this part of the dev's post on August 8th tells us what we need to know as potential players, though:
Here is what No Man’s Sky definitely is:
Exploring a universe of pretty procedurally generated worlds, with beautiful creatures
Trading with NPCs
Combat against robots/mechs and cool space battles
Survival/crafting in a universe sized sandbox
An awesome procedural soundtrack from my genuine favourite band (check the NMS album out here)
For one small moment, you might feel like you’ve stepped into a sci-fi book cover
That means this maybe isn’t the game you *imagined* from those trailers. If you hoped for things like pvp multiplayer or city building, piloting freighters, or building civilisations… that isn’t what NMS is. Over time it might become some of those things through updates.
For instance, freighters and building bases *are* coming! Read about updates coming here.
At launch though, it’s an infinite procedural sci-fi-space-survival-sandbox unlike anything you have ever played before. If you decide to play it, you’ll see just how closely it plays to those trailers, and to our original vision. It’s a weird game, it’s a niche game and it’s a very very chill game.
That last bolded emphasis was his. It's meant, at it's core, to be a very laid back game, and that will suit me more than fine.

Actually, not only have I encountered pink terrtain and flora, I've seen pink ships too.
And my starting multi-tool was pink.

Yup, on one end of the scale you have the Hotel. On the other you have
Playing a Stealth character? Kill them all without ever being seen.
Spellcaster? Rip them to pieces with Blood magic.
Mind controller? Stand back and laugh as they rip each other apart.
Brawler? Buff yourself up and go to town.
Gunslinger? Break out the bullet time and go full Matrix on their asses.
And then after all that a couple of Werewolves will still have you scrambling for your life.
Are you talking about my post? I was suggesting that the game wouldn't look as nice for me, because my video card is getting old.
You heathens and your consoles...
I would play the hell out of Total War Endless.
Yeah. But it was cut from Batman v Superman, so it probably is pink.
