A physical release had me go from no interest to most likely buying. Yes, I love my discs.

Has it been confirmed that Amazon is getting the LE? They are usually faster than this.

You can change the address, no it shouldn't get canceled, and to be fair I doubt the LE is going to "sell out" before launch.

Everything about this game looks so amazing even small things like the font.

I'm trying to remember for BestBuy do you need to pay for a pre-order?

Not sure. I pre-ordered with Best Buy to be on the safe side.

a few questions:
1. Is this a permanent Ps4 console exclusive or a timed exclusive?
2. If there is multiplayer, is there crossplay between the Ps4 and PC versions?
3. Is this confirmed for psvr?

They have an authorization charge but your card isn't actually charged until it ships

No, but they'll put a pre-authorization charge on your card that usually drops off the following day.

Well that didn't take long for it to get to top sellers list.

It's disgraceful how ambitious they are. Indie studios should know their place!
I mean it rhetorically. 'This fucking industry' is what i'm getting at.
Just had an intriguing thought... the game space is so vast that you'll likely not meet other players or it will be an astronomical rare occurrence, but one part of the game is about delving into the centre of the Universe. I wonder if once enough players do this it will transform the core gameplay and turn into more of an online co-op or PVP game. Would be cool.
As for VR I don't see why PSVR wouldn't be capable of running this. Game has low PC specs, there's been a 60fps trailer before, Sony are putting a lot of effort into this game and its been explicitly stated by Hello Games that it would be a great fit for VR and they had a PSVR devkit a long time ago. The games Golem, Battlezone and Rigs all look on par or better than NMS.
Remember the game is completely procedural, there's no textures in the traditional sense, so it's highly unlikely to be super taxing on graphics no matter what is on screen. The game install is only a few hundred megabytes reportedly. I'm still calling it a PSVR game until they unequivocally tell us it won't be, which they're not doing right now.

Not seeing why this would annoy you as the Limited Edition isn't mandatory. You don't have to buy the version with any of that.

Just read the Eurogamer preview, that'll keep me going to release day! I wonder if its possible to blow up a star? Time will tell!

1. Curiosity. Hasn't killed this cat (yet)
2, hmm
3. hmm...
1. Probably is or isn't timed?
2. :\
3. implying that maybe it will be, or as been hinted at?

1. Judging by the cover art shown, and that Sony is the publisher, it is probably a console exclusive to the PS4.
2. No confirmation, and I doubt it very much.
3. Hinted in the PSILY interview, "not wanting to reveal too much", and saying, "it would be perfect for it" leads you to think it is a possibility. He also said, "his team was really small", so maybe Sony themselves are optimizing for VR in-house.
Either way, day one on the LE when Best Buy lists the ability.
The big Sony cheque that made it console exclusive.
They didn't really talk about that, but it changed from
Console debut to Console exclusive last year
A steelbook with a download code would be pretty dumb

Honestly, I really want to buy the PC Explorer Edition... but I don't have a job (yet I can afford this) and I'm afraid of it sucking... I guess I'll just wait, or find a real good deal via pre-order coupon/sale or whatnot...
It's a thing that's happened before, as dumb as it sounds.

Has a steelbook that says it includes the game. Why would it not be a disc? I would think it specifically would say 'code' like the PC version.
Has any Sony release of a game standard or limited come code only yet?

I like that there are also releasing it on GOG, choice is always better for people that don't like DRM.
But why are people pre-ordering this? Especially since it's a developer that never made a game like this.

At first, i wasn't sure what the game was all about and wasn't sure it's my type of game. But, after looking at videos, interview with Sean Murray and gameplay description, i'm in day one !
It looks like a trippy game to play at night and explore worlds. If the game has PSVR support on top of it then good bye real world !!
Can't wait ! the art is amazing btw.

A disc bruv. Why include a steelbook if there's no disc in it?

Steelbook and download code.
Yeah, I don't know why either.
I'm just saying it's not a dumb question to ask when it's a thing that has happened with a major video game release.
