When I tried it a few years back there was this really strange field of view and input lag that felt really clunky when moving around the world. Anyone knows if that's been fixed?

I haven't played in a while, this is piquing my interest again! I love how vast this game is becoming, more major gaming studios need to follow their example when it comes to rehabbing a game that came out initially as the worst version of itself. Still haven't even gotten to the center of the universe, I might try again as the path is really weird.
I hoped on lemmy to look up some news since I saw the steam artwork changed and here was this post at the top
Haven’t read the notes yet on what we get but I’m excited
Look at these comments 🤣
Oh boy do people love hating NMS. I get it. But like it or not, there is literally no game out there doing what this game does for its players at absolutely no additional cost.
For those who aren't aware: The problem with this game has always been its fans. Not the players, but the fans.
"ThIs GaMe WaS aLl HyPe¡!” Then why did you hype it?
"iT wAsN't WoRtH tHe PrE-oRdEr!” Then why did you pre-order it?
"It'S nOt EvEn A gAmE" Murray literally said it wasn't a game, in 2015.

I've had it on my wishlist for years but my laptop would probably run it at like 20fps which is just low enough to be miserable
How sure are you? It runs pretty well on some pretty low specs.
Well I haven't tested it so I can't be sure. Also depends on res. I might get decent frames at a lower resolution, 720p maybe, but that's also a compromise.
It plays well enough on a Steam Deck and even better 7-year old machine with a 1060 in it. But not sure how low-spec your laptop is.
So far all my attempts have culminated in a freeze followed by a crash after one to five minutes of play during the tutorial sequence. Let's see if that update changes things
I've tried two times to get into No Man's Sky, because the concept is exactly something I would enjoy. Every single time I get stuck in the tutorial looking for some fucking broken ship on the other side of the planet and an inventory of random minerals.
I think I'd like this game if the art style wasn't so lame. But this I'm an old snobby sim player so I don't expect many people to agree.
