This game really shows how it COULD be. Totally fail with epic bad reviews. No giving up, putting year after year of free updates and content until the initial vision was approximated and reviews went to very positive.
I dunno if I could name another game that managed that in the last 3 decades.
A lot of games have made things better with paid updates/expansions, but NMS really seems to be the only one where the free updates have fixed the game. Hell, there were jokes going around with the last big free update that people wanted to pay them more for all these free updates.
Yeah lol. I was pissed for purchasing early too. Back then, 3000 years ago. But now I would really be ready to buy a dlc goddammit 😁
They fucked up royally but stood up to it in the most honorable way possible.
Issue with that is I pre-order the game before release based on false information. Gave up playing after 6 months because it sucked. When they finally got it to what they initially promised. It became almost unplayable by the amount of grinding that had to be done to even earn enough to by a freighter. Again gave up playing. So now sits on my shelf part of my collection.
Oh almost forgot when they updated they corrupted my save file so I lost all the progress I made in that 6 months. So that pissed me off as well.
Freighters aren't difficult to get now...
Tap for spoiler
They just straight up give you a freighter after 3 hyper jumps IIRCAnd when you say now, it's been that way since about a year after the game was released.
Nothing is ever perfect, but would you have preferred they did nothing, ran with the money and pissed on you? Now they just managed to disappoint you more than once. Many others seem to be happy now. For free. While the vast majority of other companies wouldn't even bother SELLING you updates. Sure, they didn't manage to appease 100% of customers, but they really tried to make up for it. That should count for something, shouldn't it?
I mean you pre-ordered. You got what you deserve
I'm not gonna look up the picture but just pretend I posted the picture of makarov with the caption "remember no pre-orders"
