Unfortunately this game banned my country and I’m a nee player, multiplayer works only wirh VPN, I only can see players on Space anomaly using a VPN
Is it a big deal that I don’t have multiplayer? I don’t have any friends to play with and I prefer playing this game alone as well.
What do I lose ?
Not a big deal. You would probably never run into another player without the anomaly or an expedition anyway lol
You lose nothing really. You’re getting the whole experience just fine.
Multiplayer in this game is definitely not a core thing. We didn’t even technically have it at the start of the game.
I’ve been playing this game for years, and usually leave multiplayer turned off except for at the anomaly, and that’s mainly so I can see all the different ships. Dont worry about it.
So the best experience I had with multiplayer was I went to the nexus and found out how to give people stuff. I gave someone a jokingly small amount of feline meat and they took me to their incredibly large and super intricate base. I’ve never seen anything like it and we explored their base for a solid 45 mins. It was awesome! This community is so cool. I’ve been playing since release.
I really like it as a single player!
Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience with multiplayer, so I can’t tell you if you’re missing out on something.
It doesn’t feel like that to me. 
Still have a lot of fun and the “multiplayer missions” from the Nexus also work alone.
I play on Nintendo Switch that has no multiplayer and in PS5. Apart from Graphics, there’s no discernable difference for me except seeing a few people loitering in the anomaly. It is probably quite different if you have a group of friends to play with.
I’m kind of interested, what country are you from and why would a game ban out a complete country?
I’ve never played with it on.
The game really only has the shadow of multiplayer. It’s common for people to have matchmaking turned off. At most you’re missing out on a chance of a random gift from a stranger on the anomaly.
I only play solo, so no. I don’t want to see anyone else. I just want to play the game.

I leave MP on but PvP off as I believe it can impact some bases you visit
Nothing, really. It can be fun to hang out with others, but it also opens you up to trolls.
I run solo almost exclusively these days.
And then we were little wisps.
Usually, it’s the country that bans the game, repressive governments that don’t want people to see the rest of the world or that there are better places, or other ways of seeing the truth.
I’m from Iran and it happens to a lot of games, even services and apps
Mostly 90% of the tools I use for my job and ALL my games except Fortnite banned Iran
Some do it on DNS level and that can be easily bypassed using a custom DNSs, we have many high quality services some even from government itself for free
However some games like NMS do it on game level and a PS5 can’t route UDP connections through proxy so they would know my original IP and not allow connection, however that can only be solved if you route your whole modem and all connections through VPN
Although the odds of meeting another player outside of the anomaly are remote, there’s always a chance you’ll come across some tool who’ll try to kill you for kicks. MP on and PvP off is the way to go 
I can see bases and …
Only and only not players themselves
I’ve still not run into a single troll in two years of playing this game. Apart from the od 1 faecium or silicate powder placed in my inventory lol
