10 Reasons You Should Give No Man's Sky Another Chance

This is a mechanic that’s really hard to get right, balancing ease of use with the rewards for investing time in getting good at it. You have to be a certain type of player to enjoy base building but NMS’s building mode feels much less bolted on than something like Fallout 4 for example.

Like farming there’s more reason to get into it if you’re planning on investing some serious man hours in the game. Anyone can find a waypoint and hole up for the night but having the option to conquer and colonise any alien world feels like such a natural part of No Man’s Sky, I’m amazed it wasn’t in the first cut so to speak.

Once you have the right amount of resources then you can build whatever you want. Like Fallout 4 you can only build from a predetermined selection of structures in a certain places but options are so varied and the combinations so vast that you will definitely be able to put your own mark on things.
