I already ordered No Man's Sky even though I usually focus on games that are very linear and story-centric. With this game, my approach will be the polar opposite. I'll likely stick to just exploring and discovering things on my own terms, and not bother with finding the center of the universe or "playing" the game in a traditional sort of way. I just love space so much, and this looks like the perfect space game. I don't need a story this time and I'm sure it will be worth the $47.99 Amazon Prime price.

Curse you for teasing me with a $47.99 Amazon Prime price only for me to see that it's no longer that price.

It is still :D - This post reminded me to buy it... You have to be prime which I assume you are, and the prime discount program is a little hidden, probably due to retailer agreements that they can't advertise below a certain price. So while the game shows $59.99 if you scroll down past the item description you'll see a banner at the bottom of the item description. Then once you add it to your cart it STILL shows $59.99 but when you go to checkout where it calculates tax, that's where you will finally see the real price :)

Was able to get it. I'm debating taking a sick day that day...
