    Here are my two sent on No Man’s Sky.

    I saw a lot of the trailers I was super hyped. Today I play the game and I’m in love with the exploration and the cataloging of species and the flying around. I find the game awe inspiring and easy to get lost in. I could play all day.

    But every single action you take requires a specific resource and over time there was a lot of grinding and I’m grinding-averse unless its something like Monster Hunter where grinding doesn’t feel like grinding. I just wish they had a like an infinite resources mode where your ship had infinite fuel, your life support would decrease over time and your mining lazer had infinite fuel as well…

    But i also don’t get the extreme reaction it got.

    There is an infinite resource mode! It’s called Creative Mode!

    Wait What?!
    What?! I didn’t see this!
    What’s going on… My world has bee turned upside down!
    Does it turn off trophies?
    Just saying theres a certain someone I need to dethrone on trophy points…

    My eyes have been opened, get ready to see me play No Man’s Sky more often…

    Funny thing is… I was planning on saying…

    “I wish there was a Creative mode” .

    And then I said," oh Gian… that makes no sense… You’re thinking of minecraft! Infinite resource mode seems more appropiate…"
