After weeks of silence, Hello Games finally released a new update for "No Man's Sky" that includes new content and visual tweaks.

see to me this update doesn't hide the fact the initial release was pure non-sense, I'll wait even longer for more content and I know by that time it will be 5$ used

I do not get why you would want base building in an exploration game. It should have the addition of a giant mothership where you can dock your regular ship and the mothership has tons of upgrades that let you have a version of base building without losing the exploration aspect. Either way, nothing addresses the fact that NMS is a very empty experience where nothing really matters and exploration is an illusion since all planets are the same thing with random skins applied. In-depth scripted quests are needed to keep the game interesting.

At this point it doesn't matter. They should move on to something else, they already got just about as much money as they will from this title.

Not sure what you are commenting on, but here's your answer. In accounting "black" numbers are for positive numbers and "Red" numbers are for negative. So "Black Friday" is when stores sell a crap ton of stuff. showing a Black ledger means they made money. After Christmas there is "Red Monday" Where everyone returns bought items. The "Red" meaning their ledger was red and thus a negative amount of money flowing through the store.

Once they add all this plus maybe some real multiplayer action, I may consider the game... if it's not completely devoid of players by then.

Too little too late. At this point they would be better off pulling a Uber Entertainment. Sunset No Man's Sky then release "Every man's sky" which would essential be a reskinned No Man's Sky but with all the missing features they promised and sell it for $49.99

In a sick way I hope that would happen because it would make for a great case study into behaviors of gamers who put all their stat points into commerce and nothing into intelligence. 😛
