How many of you knew he was lying about the game from the start?

How many of you knew he was lying about the game from the start?

never made any sense how he could put an entire universe into a disc

I never cared in the first place, because it sounded like a boring non-game for soyboys.

I had immediate doubts that, at the time, had little foundation. I turned out to be right

>Hey guys I said that new spicy meme. Do I fit in yet xd

>get interested by announcement
>hear nothing of substance since
>abandon ship

I knew it. I've seen every single season of Lie To Me starring Tim Roth. I have studied each episode extensively to become a master truthseeker. The telltale signs were all there from the beginning. You just needed a trained eye to see them.

Never seemed interesting to me. Then again I don't like any "do what you want"/freeroam type of games

No mans sky? More like nu males soy

First time i heard of it

its going to be
>real time rendering
>real time procedural generation
>real time loading
i at first asked myself, what sort of super computer is required to play on it?

Didn't know he was lying but I didn't give a shit about the snake oil he was selling one way or the other. Game's always sounded and looked boring to me.

>Blu-ray disc
>2.6gb download
?

I maintain that he barely ever lied.
He did obfuscate the truth, and was stuck with overhyped people.
But the state the game released in was exactly as I expected it to.

At least Chris Roberts pulled some shit off with Star Citizen 3.0. No mans sky was okay for like a half hour before it melted into redundant gameplay. I guess the planet tech was kinda cool but nothing like the promotional material suggested.

I'm glad I didn't buy it.

the amount of substance detailed about the game was so little that i had been confusing it for the game "destiny"

no man's sky eventually came out and when it did my thought was "man didn't that come out like last year?"

>are there any planets with hot babes in them?

Spore did it and it ironically, was more of a complete game.

PS4 had a physical version

Yes, he a merchant

why do normies always do that open mouth smile, it makes them look retarded

I actually liked spore even if it had a lot of shit cut from it. I still play it sometimes for fun.

underrated post

Day 1

>Indie game selled as if were hot shit.
>Procedural generation

I wonder how people could not realized it sooner?

A hive of bugmen.

They think it makes them look like they're having a fun time

Why are you so afraid to say faggot?

Internet memez
You know the one where it has the big smile and the eyes rolled up?
Literally that, my nephew does that sometimes and I wanna smack some man into him.
At least his little brother is cool

I knew how much BS it was straight from min 1 because it had all the symptoms Starbound had. No real goals, no real progression, and everything was proceduraly generated which means it would turn out to be boring.

I kept warning my friends to tune down the hype at least a bit. Its how i got burnt with Starbound.

Cause it makes them look max happy and energetic. Of course it only works if you have a spine, personality and a strong jaw line.

i did.
did nobody else seriously not notice the fact the HUD never charged in the slightest until a month prior to release?
Not just the style but literally anything on the hud changing at all. Fire missiles. no missile removed from the hud. takes damage, no health removed.

Fuck off. I want to smack assholes like you

>game by literally who advertising something insane

at least Peter Molyneux makes decent games that fail to reach expectations. Trusting a literally who is genuinely retarded

>I wanna smack some man into him.

You filthy pervert.

>3 mouth wide open numales
>I think the person on the right is male?
No man's soy

>having not heard of the absolute modern classic that is Joe Danger
It's your fault you live under a rock

Most people didnt, only Sup Forums contrarians with hindsight pretend they knew it was a scam.

I mean. The game had literally everything in the promotional material. The problem was it only had the things in the promotional material. Nothing was a mystery, Nothing had any sort of depth to it.

This wasn't a game I was interested in anyway, but I had my doubts that they were actually going to follow through with all of their lofty promises. If there's one thing that's the most important when making a game, it's to have a realistic goal in mind for gameplay and then build up from there. They clearly started with the giant universe idea and never quite figured out how to work their way down into something that could be both achievable and fun.

Reddit projection

If you played any open world, crafting game with survival elements I would hope you would have recognized NMS to be no different from the gameplay footage they showed. I'm assuming only casuals actually got hyped for the "you can do anything"

Only person I know in real life who bought it is indeed a casual (hipster, vegan faggot as well). Don't know if he liked it or not since I try to avoid talking to him

I didn’t care about No Mans Sky until it was clear it was a train wreck.

When he was pretending to play the doctored game footage on Conan's show.

Seriously go back and rewatch it, it's disgusting.

Spore is in a league of its own, not even flopcitizen will compare.

Pretty much right away. Procedurally generates shit can only be so interesting, and it sure as fuck can’t generate interesting planets (from a gameplay perspective)

The actual proof was when the planets they showed off over time all looked alike

WHAT the fuck is a SOYBOY and why do i keep reading this ridiculous word?

I actually got into an arguement with my friends on our old Vent server when this game was announced. Brad and the rest of the GiantBomb crew hyped the release trailer to the high heavens and my friends had basically an orgasm when it was shown at the Spike Game awards.

I just countered with the point of how can a team of people who's most notiable games are (really good) high end mobile games in Joe Danger do 75% of what that trailer promised.

I got bought a few rounds of drinks last summer after the game came out and I was proven correct.

If you can't figure it out on your own, be thankful, move on, and ignore it. Maybe get out of this shithole before you're stuck too

>Claimed that the game would be as detailed in terms of open world as The Elder Scrolls games for each planet
>Has 600 gorillion planets in the game

Yeah, I was really cynical of that claim from the get go

2 fucking seconds. Like maybe 1 fucking second.

>INFINITE POSSIBILI-
Yeah alright, buddy, wasn't born yesterday. Then it releases and it's trash. Go figure.

newest Sup Forums insult. c-uck isn't working anymore

I was making fun of Sonytards in the E3 threads when this was being shown years ago. I'm glad I wasn't wrong. It honestly always looked like shit to the point where I didn't understand why anyone was getting hyped for it.

Thank you for validating me. It actually means a lot.

I figured all of his grandiose statements were bogus, but I assumed it would still be a neat little survival game with a handful of hand-crafted interesting things, or secrets/references to find scattered around. But no it was literally fucking nothing.

I wanted to be wrong, but for the life of me could not believe how people could be hyped for what was obviously not going to be what they showed. ESPECIALLY after time passed and subsequent marketing showed little progress. The general public really is that dumb.

Ight I knew it was bullshit from the get go, I wasn't able to be vocal about because people would just call me a negative nancy when I said it'd be a dull game with puke colored animals that looks like shit.

I thought, if I can get a group of space pirates together online to rape solar systems of their resources, then it's not the space game I want.

I expected 3D starbound, more or less got it, but worse somehow.

Who's laughing now?

At least Star Citizen isn't a scam.

Good b8

Infinite possibilities!
Can you show us?
It's infinite, just imagine
Well I need to see it happen to believe it
Oh well time's up on this interview, next

Not gonna lie
I took the bait

People who liked space exploration games were in a drought and thought NMS was their first, new oasis from what I understand. That said, I'm with you and still don't understand how it got so huge and hyped. What fucking normies gave enough of a shit that it needed a segment on the Colbert Report. I suppose that's the power of unlimited marketing?

*Normalfag.

Every time he talked, it sounded like he was just agreeing with the questions.
>will this game have multiplayer?
>uh huh
>will this game have factions and shit?
>uh huh
and I already knew half of the game will be shit because of randomized procedural crap

All Around Me Are NuMale Faces

intelligent post for refined individuals

they claimed that the game had billions of planets yet refused to show off more because 'it would ruin the experience' if that were true, then there's no way the game was what they claimed.

they also said "This isn't that kind of game" to waaaay too many instances brought to them

>Soy contains phytoestrogens called isoflavones that may mimic the activity of the hormone estrogen in your body.

A lot of people on Sup Forums called out on his bull shit since the beginning, at least from what I remember.

It's called awesome face and it's older than you are.

God dammit ever since it was pointed out that stupid open mouth show teeth smile is done by all numales, I see it everywhere now.

You are all just cancerous pussies afraid to call people faggots.

this kind of thing doesnt affect adults

soy DOES cause issues in unborn babies and babies fed soy formula. If you're a 'soyboy' then it's because you were born one (thank your mother), not because you eat soy now

To be honest, the general public is less aware of how much time and resources it takes to develop videogames than enthusiasts. Meaning that videogame development to them is pretty much space magic and fairy dust.

They don't understand that to make a game you need to acquire an engine one way or the other, tweak the engine so it does shit that you want it to do (Dark Age of Camelot and Oblivion are drastically different games despite running on the same engine), create a fuckload of assets, script sequences and gameplay shit, QA and a bunch of other shit. Fallout New Vegas was done in a year by Obsidian but they skipped multiple steps like the bulk of the assets, scripting language, engine etc. but even then it took around a year to make. No Man's Sky if we're taking into account that every planet is as detailed as a Bethesda style open world RPG is mathematically impossible given that each of the 600 gorillion worlds would take at the very least 1 year to develop.

I played starbound, I knew what was going to happen.

Every generation has to have the experience of having their hopes and dreams crushed. My ability to take anyone at their work was already well and truly dead by the time this came around.

>that dude who spent like $10,000 on an advance copy
>he was so hyped not only for the game but for the growth this would bring his channel
>after 40 minutes he was struggling to fake his excitement and hide his disappointment
>HG had his youtube shitcanned with a DMCA to hide how shit the game was to protect those pre-order sales
I hate "cuck" as an insult but it was just so fitting in that dude's case. That shit alone made the whole shitshow worth it for me

They do for one of 2 reasons

To show they are docile and harmless by appearing friendly and accepting, so the alpha doesnt beat them up or confront them

Or because they are infantile, mentally speaking. Babies in adult bodies. Like how babies make exaggerated silly faces because they havent properly learned social interaction and gestures yet. It shows that the nu male has grown up so soulless, so heartless, doing nothing but consuming obama era politics and late night shows and hollywood media, that any sense of emotions have been dulled out. Basically, its signaling that "the light is off but i still work". Nu males are broken people with no community, culture, love, anything, just obey whatever their celebrities tell them to

>doesn't affect adults
Explain Cosmo

read that as "Stefan Molyneux" i need to get off Sup Forums

pretty much this. soyboy should filter to 'i am a complete faggot'

you can just tell that place was a cult. That single image shows just how awful the workplace culture must have been. No wonder they didn't achieve their goals, I'm surprised the thing even got out the door without the studio imploding.

As for the lies, well any time a weasly cunt won't give you straight answers and relies on hype, it should be pretty damn obvious.

None of this shit makes any sense and it makes you sound like an aspie. Some people just look fucking goofy or dumb and are shameless shills to boot

I knew I was lying from the moment I conceptualized the idea of the scam.

>it's been so long that sean murray can go on twitter and go back to sucking himself off and everyone will tell him what a great guy he is
>the same thing will happen with EA a couple weeks from now
I can't stand it

you can almost smell the soy coming from this post

Nah, faggots are at least honest with themselves and others. Soyboys and cucks want to be more than "allies" in progressive movements but ultimately can't run away from the fact that they're straight, white males so they follow practices to degrade themselves so that progressives will accept them
>I LET A NIGGER FUCK MY WIFE
>I LIKE WEARING LIP STICK SO MUCH THAT I CUT MY DICK OFF

He was nuts to begin with. Trannies gonna tran

Do you actually take photoshopped screencaps as gospel?

Anytime a game has "procedurally generated worlds" you should know that it's going to be a wholeeeee lot of nothing.

yeah and you'll be able to smell the cum real good after I shoot a load down your throat, faggot.

Faggot. Why do you think you belong on Sup Forums if you can't call a faggot a faggot? I am so sick of you softy pasty underage little cunts with your disingenuous gay little meme words thinking they belong here.

>you can almost smell the i am a complete faggot coming from this post

Someone get Hiro in on this

Does anyone have those screen caps of the faggots on reddit talking about their plans for what to do in the game?
Like the guy talking about his plan to “genetically engineer an army of orcs” and “crash land other players on a planet filled with them” so he could “loot their ships”

Sounds like a bunch of faggots to me, user. I don't need a new word for an old problem. Would rather call people faggots, have new media go silent about the site, and continue living happily than invent a new buzzfeed frontpage publishable insult every few months like some kind of retarded zombie content generator newfag.

>The game had literally everything in the promotional material.

Not true he lied about the multiplayer aspect of the game.

>18billionsomething planets
>persistent universe
choose 1

Are those the same faggots that thought that Skyrim, GTA5, Witcher 3 etc. would run on the equivalent of an android phone when the Ouya was announced?

I’ll second this. Was an out to write the same thing.

>procedural generation
It was at that moment, I knew it would be garbage

But soy is a great sauce

This is coming from the board too afraid to say nigger.
