NMS is great actually but it's not superbly interesting after a while. A lot of the gameplay loops have artificial time gates on them to stop you shotgunning the entire update in one session, and for all of the updates, very few ever bother to deepen an existing system or create synergies with older systems. So you end up with a bunch of different ways to do economy but the most efficient is to find busted sentinel ships and sell them for scrap. There's a bajillion planets but only like thirty unique ones, even including the anomaly planets. Ocean planets are really cool but again, by the time you unlock them you have no reason to go there except tourism.
