#3In another interview they asked the developer if there would be gas planets in the game. He said no, every planet will be solid because otherwise players would be confused as to why they can't land on some planets.
So there you go, the target audience for this revolutionary game is people who are confused by the existence of gas planets.

How do you know that - have you played it?
Re: No Man’s Sky
#5Till now, I have seen about 10 different planets, from various trailers and presentations.
Clearly the game doesn't have 18*10^18 unique planets, since this is impossible. The problem this game has is, does it have enough variance in its planet generation, so that the average player will not notice a pattern.
The planets I have seen all looked mostly the same, with slightly different color schemes and animals made from generic pre-built parts. Unless the devs are only showing a couple of percent of the game, getting the 10 random samples from the game, all of which show a very similar planet is almost impossible.

#6I wish this was being developed in a more open manner, with a beta program. I want a game with a community, and ecosystem rather than one persons singular vision.

This shows that their universe generation is simple. They cannot generate gas giants with moons, that would in fact be solid.

Considering that gas planet usually contains a solid core, it's possible, in theory, to land on a gas planet.
