And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
Now this will be fun to re-read.

Props to the cynics for being on the right side of history.

I thought he actually put out a new message. Nope.

In hindsight, this reads more like a confession than a jubilant creator at the end of a long project.

What a pitiful, tragic situation this turned into.

Perhaps another delay would've lessened the blowback, if not for the death threats.

Oh come on, guys. We have a thread devoted to voicing our misgivings. Is it really good form to resurrect this one in order to have another way to get another NMS hate thread up on the front page? This just reeks of bloodlust.

Until he addresses it, I am acrually fine with it. The man oversold his game all the way until it was in people's hands.

I agree that Sean Murray is a con artist who deliberately mislead consumers. But this thread is old as shit and we already have a thread detailing issues with the game. Just seems petty to me.

Nah, the contents of this thread in particular are something special. The way everything gets recontextualized is pretty amusing. Definitely worth the bump.
 
I sent that to my brother, who isn't a gamer. My wife, who tolerates my obsession, and my gaming buddy, who has no sentimentality whatsoever.

Their responses, respectively, "holy shit that's cool", "it's incredible to see his inspiration", and "I'm very happy to help support a guy like that".

I genuinely hope this game makes every member of the Hello Games team a wealthy individual. 57 minutes till go time.

Damn.
