After eight long years, No Man's Sky Steam reviews are finally great

Tuesday, August 9, 2016. After months of hype, Hello Games' hugely ambitious space adventure No Man's Sky is finally released. And it's a letdown. It's not what anyone hoped it would be. In the past, this would be the entirety of the story. But in the modern gaming world, the end of development is just the beginning. Between updates, overhauls, new versions, patches, and a gradual expansion of the original vision, in eight years, No Man's Sky has finally become the game of which its creators and its players dreamed. Its success is reflected in various metrics, but now, NMS can lay claim to that most coveted of PC gaming status symbols: 'very positive' Steam reviews.
