    This is my biggest complaint about No Man’s Sky. There are literally over a billion billion worlds, but they’re all mostly empty, not to mention all the space in between.

      I played NMS ~2 years ago and thought for a huge procedurally generated game it was pretty good. The planets had lots of POIs and trading posts and stuff to go to. I quit mostly because the flight mechanics were too “on rails” compared to something like Elite Dangerous or X4. I just didn’t get the rush I was looking for from dogfighting and stuff. I had constructed a series of bases that let me craft a ton of tradable items that gave me plenty of money but there was just nothing to spend it on because my ship was already plenty strong enough for everything I encountered…

        Don’t get me wrong, I love the game. But especially in the beginning before you start getting some upgrades, everything is sooooo far away and there’s so much emptiness.
