Mr. Original There’s an even better subtle layer to that. Besides the primarily used “REDACTED” voice, there are exactly three uses of the No Man’s Sky in-game computer voice as a censor. (1) When Sean begins to have his way with the young Pyro reporter, you hear the in-game voice say “Technology installed.” (2) As the first sex scene reaches its climax, the in-game voice says “Units received.” (3) Right after the final “every [REDACTED] procedural”, the in-game voice can be heard saying “Inventory full.” 🤣

[@xsteelll]

No man sky has 'Mixed' rating now only because of very negative start. Positive reviews now compensated all the negative before but it is still not enough to make overall rating positive yet UPDATE 08.09.2021: No Man Sky is no longer 'Mixed' - now it has next - 'Mostly Positive' rating :)

[@VanessaMagick]

No, he said it jumped up to Positive and then jumped back down to Mixed - but reviews on Steam now take in recency to account. The truth is that it got bombed with a ton of positive reviews just because they went out of their way to make a ton of excellent improvements to the game without charging a single extra dime. But after that little honeymoon of "THE GAME IS SAVED!!", a lot of people started picking it up for the first time and reviewing it as a complete product. And it truly is... mixed. A lot of people like it, a lot of people still think the main issues of the original launch - lack of content and pointless grinding with no real end - are still present. It's upgraded from universally panned to decisive. The VR kinda sucked too, which means unfortunately the entire game was getting bombed with some negative reviews just for that one issue.

[@xsteelll]

@@VanessaMagick In the steam you can see how game was reviewed starting from August 1 2016 and starting with December 2016 number of positive reviews each month was higher than negative. So currently in total there are 84122 (59.37%) positive and 57561 (40.63%) negative reviews. According to Steam rating system it is still 11% below first positive rating (70%): 95 - 100 | positive | overwhelming 85 - 100 | positive | very 80 - 100 | positive 70 - 79 | positive | mostly 40 - 69 | mixed 20 - 39 | negative | mostly 0 - 19 | negative 0 - 19 | negative | very 0 - 19 | negative | overwhelming If Hello games will continue good work they should reach that mark eventually.

[@dangerousish7837]

Vanessa Magick Well people weren’t charged for the VR support, so it’s not that bad of an issue.

[@StygianIkazuchi]

The reason it's at "mixed" is because the VR mode was really buggy when it first released and people got mad while forgetting the fact that pretty much every other company that did a VR mode made it a separate game at full price and this is a relatively small company, and then they added a synthesizer (beat maker not science machine) as a micro update and a bunch of idiots were like "why are you wasting your time doing this?"

@@gustavosilveira691 Lol no, big companies should absolutely be held responsible for not fixing a f'd up game they made. You can't make the argument "uuh, they have big team, therefor need to make new game to draw in money", usually big companies have multiple projects, they can easily continue working on lesser products to polish them without losing money. Big companies are just money-hungry morons, making flashy trailers to garbage games, ruining franchises for a quick buck. They'd make tons more money if they actually put in effort.

[@josephschultz3301]

That was the initial problem with the game in a nutshell. The release date overrode the product itself, so it was shipped out unfinished. What the game eventually _became_ is fine, but it shouldn't have been released at half-mast to begin with. Yes, you need to meet a deadline. But if the deadline makes your product worse as a result, then fuck the deadline and continue developing until your product is _ready._ It's not fucking rocket science. If you make an announcement to your fans that your game isn't finished, but is still coming out, then actually release footage of additional developments currently underway (if those developments are real, of course), then 9 times out of 10 your fans will understand. They'd rather have a completed product than an unfinished, unpolished mess. I'm looking at you, Bathesda. But really, it's the comeback story that I'm here for. Hello Games fucked up and couldn't deliver... but then they kept trying. They didn't stop with a broken, unfinished mess. I'm disappointed in them for releasing it the way it originally was, but I'm also proud of them for owning up to their shit and continuing to work on the game in order to make something better.

As a solo Indie game dev, I always find this story inspirational and there's so much to learn from.

Sean Murray tweeted a plea not to watch this video past the ~45min mark. I can't imagine why.

[@L3GIQN]

Quits job and takes a huge risk starting his own business, sells his house and if that wasn't bad enough he decides to have 3 kids in bad financial situation. I can't believe how some people willingly make life so hard on themselves.

It is no shame in falling down. Only if you don't stand up again.

[@CommisarHood]

After watching the video when it came out I went back to No Man's Sky I got it on sale a while ago but couldn't get into mainly cause I had a bunch of other games to play like Red Dead Redemption 2 and Stardew Valley (almost 200 hours on PlayStation and I just got it on pc as well help me I'm obsessed!) but I decided to give it another chance after hearing about how much work the devs put in to make it better and... I'm enjoying it. It's not perfect but it's a fun game to play while listening to a livestream and just exploring and I think you guys would enjoy it especially Co op. Although I'll warn you the first hour or so can drag as you learn things and get your ship and equipment squired away but after you get into space with a hyper drive it's a blast. As for update size of my digital copy on my ps4 is about 17 GB fully updated so should be fine.

Sean Murray and the people of Hello Games have my undying respect.

[@Yuki_Ika7]

It's a good game now, hello games have redeemed themselves (but the launch will not change from history)

[@demon2441]

@@jazzycat8917 However that in itself can be a fairly disastrous thing. No Man's Sky proving that goodwill from a poor launch can be re-earned by simply doing what they should have done all along? Now we can do the same, but perhaps without the same intention to really pour some elbow grease into our game while making it seem like we still are working on things.

[@bastion8804]

​@@demon2441 Like the video said, they are a *new* studio that is undercrewed for the hype the game got combined with disaster after disaster coming to them (flooding, lawsuits, etc.). Not saying they're totally blameless. It's just that most studios wouldn't have the same excuse. Even if they did, it's a terrible thing to do since most investors are more interested in the immediate return for their money a few days after launch, not months or years. Money-hungry companies wouldn't do what Sean did here.

[@demon2441]

@Allen Harper There are studios that consistently ship out glitchy, sub par products and never fix them. Warner Bros PC ports come to mind. While I certainly appreciate hello games going the extra mile, I don't ever think it should be the norm. Is there anything wrong in wanting a completed product.

[@honooryu5374]

Really good video, especially the informative and the semi objective discussion

[@chronosanaki5174]

Video starts at 7:20

[@kinagrill]

Big issue I always had is that those interview people keeps asking for features and it clearly indicates 'we want this!' and it's extremely hard to say no when you WANT to ensure people will enjoy your game. Rather than ask - what is the gameplay like? What are the top features in your mind within the game? etc. And the fact people never understood that Hello Games were a tiny indie studio. Issue was of course also some missteps on Sean's end but still, we are talking years-prior interviews and mentionings.

Loved this video by Internet historian and, This reaction channel is actually Great:D

These people could take the money and decide what to do with it on their own. Big studios can not do this. Just a reminder. I'm sure there are people exactly like this guy working in big studios but they simply have no say.

[@Mugthraka]

There is 2 studios i wil put faith in based on their actions. 1-CDRP xor always triving to give quality games and not take their player base for fools or cash cows. 2-Hello Games for been able to come back from something that would have been a Death sentence for anyone else qnd win back through their efforts, the Players Trust and respect. They are what other studios should aspire to be.

[@adastial2104]

Supergiant is a good one as well constantly good games

[@rastislavvassilev8157]

Well CDPR has unfortunately put out an unfinished game now. They can redeem themselves, but they will have to do exactly what Hello Games did. Fix the bugs and add the content, that they cut out, but was promised. Only then will I forgive. Only then will they earn my trust back. No one is too high to fall and no one is too low to rise if they want to (this here is some hardcore generalizing by me, because there are exceptions to this rule, for example some do not get a second chance because of factors that they don't control, but you get the point)! No wait, the point must be, that we should not judge too quickly and instead see all the sides of the story.

[@duchessofmelon9967]

@@rastislavvassilev8157 They won't do that. They don't think there's anything wrong with the content. They insist the only issue is bugs. Cyberpunk will never get the No Man's Sky treatment. CDPR lied, released a broken game, and are only going to do the bare minimum to fix it.

Good look at the vid good discussion I personally was a bit bummed they got forced by Sony's hand and couldn't delay further or release it as a Early Access I adore the game in its current state. All that they have added plus even full modding support its brilliant considering the size of the Team that made it.
