Sorry should have been more clear, I meant the one inside the battle, when you can buy items to help you in the game. Haven't got as far as working out if you can pay to get better items on that list!
My lad has been pretty calm about playing it, and most other games but I'll look out for the behaviour and language, thanks
Funnily enough I was talking to my teenagers on this exact subject last night. At a basic level, nms appears to have what Minecraft does, plus spaceships. Why doesn't it work the same?
For us, we decided that nothing in Minecraft is difficult to get at the level you need it. Wood is easy, always there. When you learn that you need coal for torches, it's just in that rocky outcrop. Start digging, here's some iron for you.
In Minecraft you don't need to understand anything complex, until you're ready to understand something complex. And if you want to spend a week running around on the surface and collecting chickens, you can do that too.
I restarted a nms game the other day and remembered that constant "warning, warning" as the planet inevitably tries to kill me. It was disheartening.
I played (and lost) 3 games, no-one said or typed anything at all that I could see, though that may be an artefact of a super low elo game?
