Starfield hasn’t hurt No Man’s Sky’s popularity – it may have even helped it (www.vg247.com)

No Man's Sky has had a great month, coincidentally around the launch of the other big space adventure of the day.

No Man's Sky has been one of the best examples of a video redemption story, and developer Hello Games never stopped expanding the game with new content, and more features. Just recently, the procedural space adventure celebrated its seventh anniversary with the Echoes update, and it doesn't look like there's an end in sight to this support.

But do these updates bring back players? The answer is an emphatic yes! Hello Games founder, Sean Murray, recently revealed that No Man's Sky is having "its biggest month in the last few years." Interestingly, this is happening across all platforms where No Man's Sky is available - so PC, consoles, Mac, and even VR.

I just think it's really funny that instead of the phrase "apples and oranges" you went with pears. Pears being the single most comparable, similar fruit to apples out of any other fruit. Starfield draws a lot of inspiration from No Man's Sky, it's perfectly fair to compare them whether or not they are literally the same game.
