So what actually happens for all your efforts in No Mans Sky? Do you get to change the worlds you discover, like a minecraft thing, or do you just collect points and tools?

Yes.
Base building can be really expansive.
Plus you can have things like Star Destroyers and get into space battles with pirates.
There's also some kind of story that I haven't really paid attention to.

How do you know you're not a pirate?

Started playing No Man's Sky again due to the above discussion. It's definitely much better than it was at launch, but the new (I think?) flying controls drive me nuts. I keep trying to make quick turns, but due to the whole lag/building momentum mechanic I either hit the thing I'm trying to avoid or I over correct to a ridiculous degree and end up facing some random direction.

I want to jump in on this, but I have no faith that it's going to be a good port so I'm sitting on my butt until it's out wide.
Let me know how it is!

From the reviews so far, it seems decent.
Mostly a 1:1 console to PC port. As in, they didn't do much to make PC better.
Sounds like at 1080p a decent PC can handle ULTRA settings.
I don't know why I'm writing this....here's a video that describes it better:

That's my main beef with the game: I hate the flying. I'm probably too used to "typical" flight mechanics in arcade-y type games and other air/space combat games, so I'm always rolling around on accident and going way off course.

Turns out if you go to general options and turn off tethered flight controls, it goes back to the old controls
