Después de ver varias impresiones de los medios especializados a principios de esta semana, llegan los primeros análisis completos del nuevo título del estudio Hello Games, el cual está en boca de todo internet durante las últimas semanas.

One of the most anticipated games of the year, No Man's Sky is somewhat of a letdown. While it certainly puts its best foot forward with a beautiful audio and visual presentation, to put it bluntly, it's boring. Ambitious as the universe that's been created by Hello Games is, what lies within is a middling survival/crafting game.
Cheat Code Central - Becky Cunningham - 3.9 / 5.0
There are wonders indeed to be found in the No Man's Sky universe, but not everybody will be willing to put in the time and effort needed to discover them. This game is a technical marvel that patient, detail-oriented gamers will love.
Destructoid - Chris Carter - 7 / 10.0
No Man's Sky isn't quite what I thought it would be. It's a fun sandbox game that's full of wonder, until it isn't. Unlike other similar titles, the magic fades over time, because 18 billion planets (sorry, 18 quintillion) don't matter if it feels like there's only truly 20 unique ones. I wouldn't recommend No Man's Sky if you don't like getting lost -- but for those of you who do, wander away.
GameCrate - Nicholas Scibetta - 8 / 10.0
No Man's Sky is all about the pure joy of exploration. It will be a polarizing game that will prove unsatisfying for some gamers, but it offers a vibrant, Zen-like experience others will treasure.
PlayStation LifeStyle - Paulmichael Contreras - 9 / 10.0
So No Man’s Sky isn’t flawless. It’s probably not for everyone. Then again, No Man’s Sky is exactly as described by the eccentric Sean Murray. If you’ve ever dreamed of being a cosmonaut, of starting with practically nothing and amassing a fortune, of becoming a notorious space pirate, or had any other of the countless sci-fi fantasies out there, this is probably the game for you. Now, those fantasies might not play out exactly as you’d have hoped in No Man’s Sky, but this is a game that begs those who put in the time to come back just once more and see what lies just over the horizon. If this game is right for you, you won’t be able to put the controller down.
Rock, Paper, Shotgun - John Walker - Sin nota
It’s a shame that after so long, after so many delays, what I come away feeling is that No Man’s Sky needed another year to really work out what it was for.
The Jimquisition - Jim Sterling - 5 / 10.0
I’ve seen so many planets, met so many aliens, and mined so much goddamn carbon and not once have I been surprised. Not once has the game thrown me a curveball. Every new location is just a different coloured home for the same old routine, and the procedural generation means that things feel far less diverse than they could be –- when randomized pools replace handcrafted designs, the lego bricks piecing everything together are far too obvious.
We Got This Covered - Jowi Meli - 3.5 / 5 stars
No Man's Sky isn't the "game to end all games" that some fans have made it out to be, but that's no cause for alarm. What Hello Games' ambitious project does offer is the chance to savor the little details in a massive universe absolutely rife with them — a messy universe, to be sure, but one that's not that different from our own in that regard.

No Man's Sky es un juego único y abrumador. Lo mejor de todo es que es, ni más ni menos, lo que sus creadores prometieron desde un principio: una experiencia, un viaje distinto para cada jugador. Sientes que estás en un universo vivo gracias al apartado artístico y su excelente banda sonora y, además, consigue que pierdas la noción del tiempo.
IGN - Carlos G. Gurpegui - 9
Ya ha llegado la hora de saciar uno de los hypes más grandes de la historia reciente del mundo de los videojuegos. A partir de ahora es cuando podemos hablar con conocimiento de causa sobre el debate que ha dividido a la comunidad desde hace un par de años: ¿merece la pena No Man’s Sky? ¿Es Sean Murray un vendehumos con un extraño acento? Estés en el lado de la barrera que estés, lo que está claro es que la criatura de Hello Games ha cambiado un poquito el panorama del videojuego contemporáneo con su premisa y sus formas. ¿Lo ha hecho para mejor o para peor? Para este humilde peregrino espacial ha sido para mejor.
Fun fact: el análisis de Sterling, que fue el primero con nota en aparecer, provocó que su web fuera atacada (DDOS).
La verdad es que todo el buzz que rodea al juego y el tema de los "bandos" está siendo bastante grotesco :/
Recordatorio de que el juego tiene hilo oficial en el subforo, eso sí, pensado para aquellos que están jugando al juego, si queréis meter mierda podéis usar este mismo hilo o No Man's Sky - Hilo de debate procedural.
