My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

You're not wrong about that. I've only played about 15 hours of the game so far, but finding it to really feel samey most of the time
It really is. I like no man's sky, but most of it starts looking very familiar fast.
Only exception, I still get good surprises with random creatures. Sure, they're all based on the same few structures, but once in awhile I get some perfect combination of funny, dorky and/or cool that I just can't refuse as my new pet.
The ironic thing is that if the game just looked more samey, it'd actually be less of an issue. If all these cool stuff wasn't everywhere, it would feel fresh for much longer.
Like you can tell what parts of the creatures are reused cause you've seen like a hundred species within a few hours.
Yeah I had to stop playing. I got so bored just finding the second atlas station that I decided the game wasn’t for me.
I know there’s a lot of exploring to do, but everything is very repetitive
This is one thing I think Starbound did pretty well. Procgen creatures were mixed with premade creatures, and you'd only get a few species of procgen creatures per planet, so it took you a good while to start seeing different creatures with similar parts.
The planet generation, on the other hand...
Didn't Starbound get rid of their procgen creatures? Actually, I just looked it up, I guess they're still there but the not-procgen creatures are just everywhere and they were heavily reduced compared to the original versions of procedurally generated creatures.
