Stupid name
I wonder if the Devs realize the name of the game equates to No Man Is Sky. No apostrophe is needed at all in this title.

The apostrophe implies possession, btw. As in the sky belongs to no man. As in the boundaries of space are endless and no man can conquer it. Except for the guy who reached the galaxy in under 30 hours.

OP you FAIL at English. Go back to kindergarten.

The apostrophe is needed. It indicates possessiveness. Just like No Man's Land.

That's inccorect pronunciation, lol look it up, that's why its written "It's hers" and not "It's her's"

Implied possesion doesn't matter, it's not a thing in English to add that apostrophe there, it's simply a mistake perpetuated by those who never bothered to see if they were correct.

Incorrect, again SgtGenderBender.


Using an apostrophe to imply possession IS a thing in English. Here's some grammar help.

I have never in my life seen anyone so assured of themselves, yet so very incorrect. Sgt, you are wrong.

It's like a stupid person shouting "I AM CLEVER".

and yet the OP is not as inept as the devlopers of this game who thought their game was ready for a PC release.

It's not a thing in English to apply that apostrophe to that word in that structure lmao.

You need to learn how to read because apparently you thought I said it's not a thing to apply that apostrophe EVER, when I said It's incorrect to apply that apostrophe there xD

A group of people thinking incorrectly is still incorrect.
