should be at least happy someone decided to work this hard to create something interesting and awesome in the first place.

So those who bought No Man's Sky should be happy with what they got because it's better than nothing? A developer lied more than thirty times, tricking people into spending $60 for a game with not even half the amount promised and we should be ok with that?

Seriously?

Backlash is OK. Asking for a refund is OK. Criticising developers and pointing out the lies is OK. All this should be about constructive criticism so they can fix whatever is wrong with the game. Or at least help consumers stay away from the developer's next title.

However, saying the guy should be raped and murdered because the team made a bad game is ****ing pathetic. If that's the what you want to say, go ahead but get the **** out of here. All this because of a ****ing video game....

Agreed.

Say you ordered a large pepperoni pizza but the delivery guy instead brought a plain small sized cheese pizza without even the pepperoni, would you still pay for it as a large pepperoni as long as it's still a pizza you should be grateful for having at all?

its not what i'm saying at all

Oh so the developer might have lied, So lets have a ***** about it and send him death threats (Not saying that were one of those many people who that) ?

I'd like to know what you meant if that wasn't it.

It's not okay but the developer still shouldn't have lied. No, I don't agree with sending death threats so don't take that out of context.

I had a thought about this game.

There is a video from GT Live where some guy is freak out about this game. He was always asking, "but what do you do in this game?" and was getting agitated. Then I remember that I had a similar conversation with a friend and I had the same view.

My point is that this game is a perfect game for the divided opinion between a optimist or a pessimist. The optimist sees something that could be very grand and amazing, filled with amazing things (and they are not wrong to base that assumption on pre-release trails and videos) and the pessimist realized that there isn't anything to do.

I find it interesting. And I think the major blowback from gamers are the people who were optimists who believed that this game would usher a new type of experience and wonderment when in fact, it's a shitty survival game with nothing to do.

It's sad because the technology within this game could of added an element to a FPS, RPG, Sim that would turn it into something magical.

No. 👇

**** the **** off.

As for whether or not I actually believe he should die for his raging phaggotry, that is for you to decide.

Stop trying to put your own words into my mouth.

According to the latest Punk Effect "Completely Unnecessary Podcast", it looks like No Man's Sky lost about 90% of their player base overnight.

From the way they talk about the game, it sounds like it's actually a bit worse right now then Elite: Frontier. (Which was AWESOME, once you get past the learning curve.)

So Sony's president threw Sean Murray under the bus today, condemning his PR strategy creating the hype for No Man's Sky. Brutal.

That's crazy.

People criticize AAA development and say it's stagnant (which is a true statement) but I wonder how well this game would of turned out if the was taken out of Hello Games hands and put into a major developer. It could of been an amazing game. However, it's turned into a neat idea but with shitty components and mechanics.

People criticize games when they go overboard on features and they don't turn out well. It doesn't help when the game is barren in gameplay mechanics and the mechanics that are presenet are shit as well. It's the worst of two worlds.

It's the E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy vs. Destiny comparison. The former has a lot of great ideas and originality but is hampered by being an unpolished piece of shit, and the latter is creatively bankrupt and by the numbers but looks and feels great due to its big boy AAA polish.

Games that feature the best of both worlds are rare.

Meh, EYE Devine I haven't played so I can't really say but after seeing a video review and synopsis of it's gameplay mechanics, it just looks like a Deus Ex clone.

Not sure where you get that it's original.

There are games that are AAA quality that have original thought. It's not all the time but it's hardly rare.

Noticed they've brought out a update with some new things

too little too light methinks.

Also, not sure why they didn't wait for this update for the initial release.......

I watched a video and the person pointed out how this game could be the new Minecraft, How with that one new things got added over time.

Well...I guess...but the game was ridiculed for being completely barren in terms of anything gameplay related. And it ****ing suffered for it. Having the ability to build bases in the vanilla game would of been very important for the release.

Personally, I always believe the tech was neat but you should of been able to build a civilization on a planet......

They should of limited the amount of planets by like 95% and have people build worlds and civilizations similarly to how you do in 4X games. They should of had a robust ship building aspect and be a seamless online world where you can attack/defend your planets/civ. That would of been ****ing cool.

Despite all the flak, support for No Man's Sky continued and now it's...good?

So i've heard that the game is actually good now, Problem is alot of folks have jumped ship before it did it good with all the updates.
