What awaits you at the center of the galaxy in No Man’s Sky is a single disappointment for many explorers.
In the months leading up to the launch of No Man’s Sky, Sean Murray, the founder of Hello Games, emphasized on numerous occasions that the main goal of players would be to reach the center of the galaxy.
And many fans wondered and eagerly discussed what could possibly be waiting for them there. In No Man’s Sky, discovery is particularly emphasized. What could possibly be at the center of the galaxy that is so special and is proclaimed as a grand goal?
When you start No Man’s Sky, you have a lot of freedoms. You can linger on the first planet for hours, you can stay in your star system, you can wildly hop from one planet to another – or you can race towards this ominous center. There must be something cool there. But no, for many users, curiosity turned into frustration when they arrived.
From here a clear spoiler warning. If you have not been to the center yet and want to find out the secret for yourself, you should not scroll down any further.
The end is not the end
If you expect to find a god-like being or the ultimate revelation at the center, you will be greatly disappointed. For there is nothing of the sort to be seen here.
The game zooms through the universe in the same way it did at the beginning of the game. You see heaps of stars and systems. And that’s it. Then you are in another galaxy and start over. In the following video, you can see “the secret”:
Just in the reddit forum, people do not hold back in expressing their frustration with colorful words. A massive thread has been opened specifically for this, in which it is discussed bluntly. Reaching this goal gives no feeling of achievement whatsoever. The whole journey there was a waste of time.
Have you already reached the center of the galaxy? What were your experiences with it?
