Just occurred to me the juxtaposition of the 2 games I been playing lately.
Valheim. Vikings! Trolls! Gods! Hit shit with axes and arrows, cut down trees to build cabins! Run everywhere, take forever to get there!
No Man's Sky (in VR) Space! Teleports! Fly across a solar system in a minute or less! Alien creatures, pirates, Sentinels! Shoot lasers pew pew! .. ok you can still cut down trees to build cabins, if you wanna.
Been thoroughly enjoying the Cosmos update via the 10th Anniversary Expedition in NMS. I've been playing it since almost the beginning, so it's pretty cool to hear the commentary from Sean about each big update to the game.
Valheim has also been fun, playing with one of my few friends. She's been more into it than I have. I got it .. IDK at least a year ago and had put a couple hours into it before falling off for whatever else. At 13 hours played now I'm finally starting to understand the various systems and such. I do feel they could do better with some things, esp the crafting/building. Still, enjoying the time I'm spending with it.

Okay so "Blood of Dawnwalker" seems pretty much up my alley. BUT before buying it I need to know if there are "aiming" elements, and if so, does it support gyro aiming? The list of accessibility options on the game's page (PS5) says that it is "playable without motion controls", which is the exact opposite of what I want to know.
I mean if that's how it's phrased they can just not bother implementing it and check the box. Useless list.
Anybody can help here?
