Regarding sales: gonna be fun when their next game is announced and nobody wants to buy it.
Shit hurts your name.

Christ! lol
After watching that I got this come up in my recommended feed https://youtu.be/3Mz5YPkThOU
Sales don't mean shit in this case because the quality of the game itself is pretty bad.The game that can't even buy a break.
Except the tons of sales.
so we know that there is no way for players to see each other (judging from that longass thread that got closed)
but do animals actually eat each other or eat the vegetation?
and can you really play the game without gathering resources?
Christ! lol

People pointing at sales like it somehow washes away peoples criticisms and disappointment.
Come the fuck on.
GAF needs to grow the fuck up.
Emotionally attaching yourself to a game that isn't even out.
Why?
So you can wait for a review thread and yell "GOTY" in all caps over and over?
Why?
Why.
I forgot all about Brandon from GT trying to establish 'what this game is' and the rest of the crew piling in on him, lol.
As for the video in question? Masterfully put together.
I'm sure Hello Games are crying themselves to sleep at night after counting the boatload after boatload of sales.
What a wild ride this has been.
So somebody spoilertag for me, what is at the center of the universe lol?

The game is everything i expected to be and i like it.
Sean Murray is now the victim of people with silly expectations.
I feel bad for him.
The fact that it was labeled a resource-collecting game was suppose to mean that any advertised features should be ignored.
Excuse me, ahahahaha.
So somebody spoilertag for me, what is at the center of the universe lol?
Absolutely not. Surprise surprise an e3 demo was staged.
I will never understand the pleasure some people get from telling people something they like is bad.
There's some people calling out the game for some admittedly obvious faults, and then there's stuff like this thread where it's people patting themselves on the back because some guy on the internet agrees with them.
Whatever, I should know better than to poke around in this thread any long than I already have.

Lmao, watch that whole No Man's Sky E3 '15 segment from Game Trailers. It's so funny. 3 people vs Jones and he was the only one not blinded by the "art"
So somebody spoilertag for me, what is at the center of the universe lol?
Nope, just deduction. $60 game, 15 team members, 700k Steam sales, 100k ps4 sales in Britain alone...it looks like a sales triumph.
Hello Games won in the end. They got all your money now
So somebody spoilertag for me, what is at the center of the universe lol?
Never seen a CrowbCat video but this was brutal.
No doubt about it some of this was smoke and mirrors.
But this is the norm of the industry and given his experience working with AAA studios he knew the tricks of the trade.
Absolutely nothing. Lol. That ending song actually plays when you warp to the center. Its just a brown dirt planet with toxic air or something. Lmao
Pretty sure I won too, because I am enjoying the game immensely.Hello Games won in the end. They got all your money now
"from the creators of No Man's Sky" will definitely turn a lot of people away.Because everyone shares your opinion of the game.
Despite their broken promises those also reviewed well up until about the time that franchise crapped itself.Didn't people continue to buy Lionhead games?
I would assume that Hello Games has profit sharing, and if so then all 15 of those employees should be millionaires.

They got hit real bad with Steam refunds though. Everyone I know refunded it including myself and the concurrent number dropped off huge after day 1. Poor PS4 folk who can't refund
You warp to the center, and it does this dramatic zoom out of all the other planets you can go to and it says "New galaxy discovered" and you start over, like a NG+
A ridiculous yet thorough look at all the bullshit that was peddled. Sean Murray probably should never do press for a game again.
The game is everything i expected to be and i like it.

I recommend you check out just a sample of his other masterpieces
Ubisoft downgrades
Watch Dogs : my "true next-gen experience"
CSGO hysteria and forgotten TF2 design
This video had to be done.
People buying this kind of game are hurting the industry
DAMN THAT GT LIVE GUY!
He was so on point. It is hard to ask questions about a game that has a very strong defense force.
As soon as the video started i busted out laughing. I already knew what time it was.
To me it always seemed he was completely on board with playing the bashful/earnest/humblebro. To shift the overhype of the game to the publisher alone is too simplistic of an argument, especially when the dev is also board with marketing himself. What turned into a nervous first debut to the public was easily capitalized upon as marketing an "authentic" persona, a "real" person.
I've been in content marketing for 6+ years now as a designer and the amount of times I've heard project managers and producers say the words "real people" or referencing and proselytizing Humans of New York is disturbing. It worked well for this game because Sean pulled it off well. Even if he is as earnest as he comes off, I doubt he was naive to not know how effective a marketing strategy it can be to play it up. Check out the articles The Atlantic did on "real" people marketing and even their piece on method acting. It's the same reason why brands are courting popular instragram users (dubbed "influencers") to promote their products.
If you never want to leave your starting planet, or get access to later mechanics, parts, and other life forms that you can speak to then technically yeah you can play the game without gathering resources.
