Space exploration sim No Man s Sky recently added both multiplayer and third-person perspective, along with a host of other changes for its Next update. To me, the mere presence of character models seemed innocuous at first, but it s quickly become one of my favourite things about the game.
The character customisation, which can be accessed on any space station, isn t particularly detailed, but it doesn t need to be. The main thing is that you now have a tangible presence in the universe, and just enough control over what that presence looks like.
