Was No Man's Sky the pinnacle of release hype deflation?

>even Sony was baited into believing the game would have MP

It doesn't? Murray even said on his twitter that on the first day of release people met each other on stream. That can't be just made up

You weren't here when "We're in the same place in the same system and can't see each other" hit the fans?

There's no multiplayer. At all.

I just wish people would learn their fucking lesson over this. But they won't.

WHAT IS GOING ON

...

nah, just neo/v/ and the hype generation

Damn even reddit is as salty as the dead sea

I just checked his twitter, he hasn't posted anything in a month. Did he flee to a remote island with all the cash he scammed?

>Excrement in levels

LOL why are they even still there? Looking at all of the threads about people "enjoying the games" makes me sick. Fucking sonyggers.

>Retards buy into hype, order collector edition of game
>Game is shit
>I learned my lesson
>Turn around and go pre-order the next hyped game

NMS is proof Cred Forums and leddit will go on about pre-ordering being for cucks then do it anyway due to 'DUDE HYPE XD;

No, because Spore was released before it.

it wasnt hype. it was just straight lies.

I think the worst thing is people forcing themselves to like it, to prove some point???

Spore wasn't nearly as hyped, let's be real.

>2.7

top kek

>Not looking up what you are buying
>not watching streams of people who get it before everyone else to see if it is legit
>not making sure you can get a refund

A fool and his money are parted quickly.

I'M LITERALLY SHAKING

Maybe not quite as much as NMS but the Spore hype was real.
Especially because of how long it took them to actually release the game.

Reddit has such a shitty post layout

I don't know how anyone can use it

Feels good to have not bought this shit game.

What the fuck were they even doing when making the pc port? Smoking dope and buying coke from all that money?

I mean this is a case where the developer just straight out lied about features, he didn't deliver subpar features, he outright lied about their existence.

Wouldn't be surprised if they actually got sued for it.

its made for phones, where 90% of its posters are

Not even mods can make this game worth playing for more than 3 hours. I'm ashamed that I even wasted time pirating this shit.

making plans to how to fake their deaths and flee with the cash when they realized the piece of shit they had on their hands

>censoring the file location
Curses! Now I am unable to hack your computer and steal your porn!

Reddit was made over ten years ago, long before smartphones were a thing.

It just has a terrible layout even if you change the post order to a chronological order.

I don't want people to shit on my language.

...

smart phones took off in 2006 with the first iphone sweetie pie, only about a year after leddits launch. hardly the >long before

Only pre-order games with a proven track record that you have concrete data on.

For Forza Horizon 3 we have a full car list, full map, full soundtrack list, and gameplay for days.

People pre-ordered NMS on nothing but promises and brief bits of gameplay.

>sweetie pie

but guys its BIG

I'd argue to not preorder even in your case. It's not like there's a shortage of video games ever and with the prevalence of digital downloads you don't even have to worry about getting it day one (implying a physical order would even get to you on day one, I think Amazon supports this maybe but probably not always reliable).

The only real reason I can see for a preorder is to get some kind of preorder bonus, but preorder bonuses are anti-consumer garbage and typically amount to worthless garbage after the novelty wears off.

>that fucking rich retard who paid 2k$ just to get the game 2 weeks earlier
Is he contemplating suicide?

If he has so much money that he can drop 2k on something so stupid, I imagine he doesn't care.

Or maybe he was just a child who borrowed his mom's credit card, in which case his death would be murder instead of suicide.

Forza is fair choice, and has good reviews.
Still hilarious when people buy games that everyone know is terrible because "Can't trust reviewers, only my opinion has any value" and then come back crying when they realise how much money they wasted.

In my case I want to preload and shit. If early reviews come out and trash it I can always cancel.

It could be worse. He would be paying 18k for a jpg of a ship.

...

I still don't know what they wanted to accomplish by making a galaxy so much bigger than the actual, real galaxy when the real thing is already too big to ever explore in a videogame

Were they trying to one up Elite: Dangerous? Were they trying to sell exclusively to retards who didn't quite grasp that they'd never see even the tiniest fraction of the game?

But then you have to rely on prerelease reviews, and we all know that reviews of these kinds are meaningless trite due to the shitty opinions of the mainstream gaming media and the influence of money.

I first saw the reveal for this game watching E3 on my PS4 in 2014. Since then I have been counting the days. From the very first moment I started playing it lived up to my every expectation. The game is exactly what I saw in the gameplay Sean Murray demonstrated. If anything, it's more. For me, the idea of wandering an endless series of planets, scanning and naming them and the plants and animals thereon, and then taking off and moving to a new one was thrilling! But there's even more to it then that. I've been dismayed at what appear to be a bunch of typically "hardcore" gamer types who are used to getting a game and powering through it to maximum levels and then lording it over the universe the game creates. That actually doesn't work in this type of game, in no way, shape or form.
The keening, whining, raging and crying from entitled manchildren was immense. From shit talking about the actual mechanics of journeying, critical to the casual style and tone of the game, to whining about the lack of a clear ending or point at which I imagine they could be dominant, or multiplayer (so they could show off to their buddies or measure themselves against them I guess) they could not seem to connect that this game was not the same as all the others they had played before. Raining hate everywhere, including spamming review sites with how "boring" the game was, when they spent no time on planets, simply mining and running.
Meanwhile I have already spent close to 100 hours in the game and while I have discovered and named 5 systems and multiple planets, I backtracked to to my home world to make sure I 100% discover it and plan on doing that for each planet in each system I have discovered going forward before moving forward on the Atlas path. This game can last a lifetime if you let it, enjoy it, savor it. But if you have no imagination, or are a "hardcore, elite gamer" look elsewhere...this game is NOT FOR YOU! Got it Cred Forums?

You would know why he did it and if he regretted it or not if you read anything into you fucking monkey moron.

lol

People have the full game and there is footage everywhere. I waited patiently and waited until I saw what I wanted to put money down.

stop talking about this fucking game

>Were they trying to sell exclusively to retards who didn't quite grasp that they'd never see even the tiniest fraction of the game?
They were, just like every studio they keep using buzzwords for their PR campaign
>What's this game about?
>Well it's AWESOME of course, you can do anything!
>B-but what do you actually do in the game?
>Look at those pre-rendered trailers, looks great!

IT'S NOT YOUR GAME Cred Forums

GET USED TO IT

You tell them, user! Surely they'll stop now!

Well, do what you want to do. If you have to preorder a game then it sounds like you've got the best scenario.

Those fucking textures...

I remember that thread. The guy who originally posted this said he wouldn't be surprised if there were groups dedicated to scientifically studying nms planets and animals lmao

It could be worse, he could be paying 10k for a dinner with inafune

>virtual probes
My sides

Rome : total war. AI would charge and run away in a loop. Faces would fuck up. Garbage fps, literally unplayable.

3D gaming is also pretty good at that
>3D will change EVERYTHING
>Maximum immersion, everything will be better
And then 3D came out and died right away, just to be replaced by a new meme
>VR will change EVERYTHING

It looks fine, nerd

>Rome : total war
Mate, I will fucking break your jaw.
Of course, if you mean Rome 2, you're totally justified and I retract my statement

He's obviously talking about Rome 2 mah dawg.

this

There was a guy or girl there that created god tier mods for the game.
A good and big work just so people can actually enjoy the game. But sadly you cannot fix a shit game with just that
Everyone stop giving a fuck about the game and so the modders stopped working on mods

He's getting sued for a different reason instead.

br?

there was that issue where your named things would reset after two weeks, right?
It's still happening?

Reddit was created in 2005, the first iPhone came out late 2007.

Are the DLC cars for Forza games usually worth it?

I'm about to pull the trigger with the ultimate edition mostly to play it early on Windows 10

Rekt with facts. Good job on showing that sweetie pie cunt.

Is he? What's the reason?

>Will we ever see such a massive failure again in our lifetimes?

Yes, in another month or 2.

A-are you trying to hit on me, user

When does FFXV release again??

Isn't it proceduraly generated? How can people meet in the same spot? Or was it that they generated settings for 18kkkkk planets and that's all?

What is it going to be?

>Will we ever see such a massive failure again in our lifetimes?

i give it four months

It's a 40 car season pass. Plus the other smaller packs. Sure why not.

a vast majority of users of reddit and Cred Forums are the same people.

FOUND HIM!

If you think this you were obviously too young to remember spore.

spore was the same thing, except with EA money behind it. it was even worse.

Apparently the world generating algorithm was stolen.

That's not Duke Nukem Forever

No one cared about DNF by the time it came out

You don't speak for a vast majority of me

from what I'm seeing right now the vast majority of reddit users are sony shills

the comments on this anti-sony post are fucking ridiculous

what movie is this?

Hi there. Longtime lurker, first time poster.
Can I be real for a second?
This community is fucking atrocious right now. You're all acting like a bunch of whiny, entitled little babies.
A tiny team of people made an entire universe for you to explore. They made it for YOU, and they're going to wake up tomorrow morning and see that instead of enjoying it, this community of "fans" picked out the 3 or 4 things that weren't perfect and are using that to fucking riot.
Guess what? The game was never going to be perfect. It was never going to live up to your hype. It was never going to be everything you'd ever want in a game.
What it WAS going to be was an impossibly big universe filled with mysteries and weird shit. I just played it for 2 hours and it was exactly that. What more do you want?
Is it buggy? Sure. Is it repetitive? Maybe. Is the inventory system imperfect and the multiplayer feature questionable and the structure unclear? Sure, fine.
But holy shit what do these people OWE YOU?
How fucking entitled do you have to be to explore an infinite universe in a spaceship and then say "yeah but..."
We should all be fucking weeping in our chairs right now at the sheer size and scale of the achievement. We should be showering the people behind this thing with the praise they deserve for pulling off one of the most inspiring games in recent memory.
Hello Games doesn't owe you the world. Yet they gave you 18 QUINTILLION of them.
If you have the fucking audacity to complain about it then you don't deserve it and you were never fans in the first place.

Pretty sure everyone have seen this at this point

This pasta will never get stale.

>pretty but entirely unnecessary and flashy animation that took entirely too much time for something that isn't needed
Yep, knew it was Star Citizen before I saw the watermark

>every star in the sky is a sun

Really?

Spore

The latter.

first post truest post

So what the fuck is this ending? You will end up in literally the same galaxy everytime you "finish" the game.

I agree with you on this. Its like 2-3 people spent 3 weeks creating an animation demo to later show prospective employers.

When you reach the centre the next galaxy you get sent to has a new seed. Realistically though it'd be almost identical to the galaxy you came from because the procedural engine is so repetitive. Either way I doubt many people kept playing for long after the "supa secret in the centre" turned out to be even more of a disappointment than the rest of the game.

Creative Assembly has a good track record too, but do you remember Rome 2?

Shit was hyped and guess what?
Bugs everywhere, instead of improving upon mechanics from Shogun they instead took mechanics away to cater to casuals and the A.I was beyond retarded.

There's a lot of this shit. Dark Souls 2, Dragon Age 2, MGS V (arguably) etc. Preordering is generally not a good idea anymore

Difference is that there are people with the full game putting footage up online. People have the discs. Sure they're only contractually allowed to show 30 minutes of footage total, but it's the full game. If something was busted, we'd know by now.

In fact some people have posted an hour of footage.

youtu.be/85v6YSnDjZ4

No, we're going to see this a lot with Sony's development teams in the future.

Keep in mind this was supposed to be this gen's FFVII... It was pushed as such since it's announcement.

Southbound I think.

Here's one without an annoying commentator.

youtu.be/SEJS9QlKLPI

Any Game where a major publisher like Sony and its Studio president wash their hands off a title just proves how much of a catastrophic failure it is I.E. No' man's sky.

Sean Murray had to hire a PR group to delete comments and "Correct the record" to promote a positive but biased image. Nu males from game review sites are openly trying to defend this bad game either because it taints their already shitty "indie dev" clique or sean murray has told them to help with damage control.

None of it is working and steam threads are being locked and deleted instantly or after certain amount of days. Sean Murray is really a cuck, he should just do the right thing and come out clean to the community and the consumers on his fuck up. John Carmack at least his said at Quakecon that RAGE was a flop, that's great he's not in denial like some other people.

In this very case silence doesn't work, this problem isn't going away without being addressed properly, the further he waits the more other people associated with it are just gonna back away (like the devs working for him) and let him take the full brunt of it all.

It's was pretty fun, wasn't it?

>Colossal failure

Does anyone have the link to the no man's Cred Forums video with the anons vocaroo overlayed onto the DHMIS video?
