That's pretty much the impression that I've been reading on Reddit. The game is exactly what it was described to be. Curious to see what's in this first update.

I still want to go check it out. Part of me thinks that DC films seem to be the in-thing to hate on.

You can have Phil Jones, if you want. Will chuck in Rojo for a few quid extra.

A few years back, a friend in work was replacing some of the keyboards in the music room and, in the process, decided to just get rid of the then current stock. I asked her if I could take one and it's been in the corner of our bedroom, patiently waiting in its cover (and taking up space) until the right time came when I could be arsed to sit down and learn another instrument. The one thing it was missing was its power supply. I picked up one off Amazon for around a tenner and have been learning some of the basics this week. My thinking behind it was that it would make me/help me understand some of the principles of music theory, which I've not had much experience of in the past. I'd say it's comig along nicely. I'm starting to apply some of that knowledge back to guitar and actually understand a bit more what makes a C chord that particular chord, for example. The keyboard actually makes a lot of sense as an instrument in a way that I can't really explain. There's a certain logic behind it that just fits. In a way, I kinda regret not picking it up years ago because I feel I could be pretty decent at it, in time.

I just want to find a planet that I like and chill there for a bit. Before blasting off into space and cruising before finding another that takes my eye. I've heard talk of maybe they'll add more features in the future. I wonder how realistic that is. Given that they've spent so much time on this game already, I can't imagine that they'll want to move onto something else too quickly. Who knows.

I'm literally sat here getting all of my resources ready for the year. So, I hope I won't have to come home and do an awful lot over the next few months...Maybe that'll hopefully free up some NMS time. I do still want it, quite badly now, ahaha.

The notable or most striking feature of this game is the scale. Due to the way that the game works, there are countless numbers of planets in the game. Different star systems and the planets are all planet sized. So, if you were to walk in one direction, it would take you a very long time to walk around the entirety of the planet. This game is a "choose your own adventure" type of game. You might want to be an explorer. So, you'd be the type of person who wants to go out there and catalogue all of the different planets, alien species, etc that you find. You might want to be a trader, so you'd gather resources and trade them in for credits. You can be a fighter and just want to create anarchy. That's what the core of the game is. You have to be fairly open minded in order to get the most from this, imo. I think having a love for space and classic science-fiction would help. The one thing to remember is that the team behind this is small. Tiny, even. Even for an indie. So, what they've created (what we've seen this far) is nothing short of incredible. There are questions that will exist about the depth of the game. In truth, it's not going to have the tremendous amount of depth that something like a Zelda game or another RPG series will have. It won't have the gun mechanics of something like Halo. It won't have the fighter pilot options of something like Rogue Leader. But, it's not trying to be any of those. It's the vision of a small team who want to give you the feeling of what it's like to land on a random planet, catalogue what could be there, run from the dangerous wildlife and gather as many resources as you can before you die. In that respect, I think it'll succeed. I'm still waiting for reviews or at least a few more impressions. The timing of the release is terrible for me personally. I would have kept my preorder had they not shifted the date. I know @drahkon is in the same boat as me.

Just started up Season 2 and have made it past episode 3 already. Episode 3 was incredible.

Awful, awful news. R.I.P. Condolences to his friends and family.

Oh god, Pod Racer in VR would be orgasmic. If that doesn't give you motion sickness, nothing will. NOTHING! I'm quite excited now to see where VR goes. It's getting pretty serious now and I think the technology will just get better and better. Imagine playing a whole Metroid Prime game in VR. Hnnnnnggggg.

Maybe there are some surprises/mechanics/stuff that they want people to experience for themselves, or at least when it's hit the street date. I can understand it.

Is that on Netflix? May give it a go. Tempted to start Mr. Robot.

I dunno, X2 reminds me of the second X-Men film, which was awesome. The Last Stand was a bit shitty. So, this could be a good omen. NX-men.

Castlepoint, brah. Hope you took her to Cafe Thornton's.

I can only imagine how crazy this looks in VR. Love DriveClub.

Wow. Love those little cartridges. Mind was blown when he showed us FireRed.

That's the first one that sprung to mind. It's probably the most memorable one for me. There was a pretty decent Mario Strikers Wii advert with Ian Wright that I quite enjoyed!

My initial reaction to that is that it looks more like the old Playstation/Sony brand rather than something Nintendo. Not a fan of the build of that model. Maybe it's just the colour scheme.

RedCafe are absolutely certain that Pogba is coming. I thought the Higuain transfer would have set things in motion, but part of me is still expecting Madrid to come in and swoop for him.

I've got severe cravings for this and am super fucking tempted to put my preorder back on. Gah. Whyyyyyy didn't they release it in June? It should have been my summer game! Eagerly waiting for the impressions and reviews to come in. If it lives up to it, then it's back ON.

I imagine that Splatoon could gather an audience in the same way that Overwatch and Rocket League have. The thing about having a larger userbase is that you have lots of little sub-groups and crowds. It's not a single hive mentality of COD or GTFO. There's also going to be a section of fans who play on everything, e.g. they own a PS4 and another system. If there's a PS4 version of a game and a WiiU version and it's online focused, you'd imagine that many would go for the PS4 version. Especially if the crowd is larger there, since it'll make it easier to find a game.
