It might just be me, but I feel like since they delayed it in to August, the hype has died for it.
I really hope it's not going to be a disappointment because I know i'm gonna be picking up this shit day 1. I still think it looks rad as hell.
>>342359759
My hype died when they showed off the space police pushing your shit in for fucking around.
Oh look, it's the daily No Man Cares™ shill thread.
>>342359759
Consumers are a fickle beast and human attention spans are inherently low
>>342359759
>>342360227
My hype died when they announced that there were a gajillion planets and they're all unique...I realized it was all just gonna be palette swapped garbage.
>>342359759
i feel you..
i was kinda hyped but somehow after the delay i think its gonna disappoint me anyways...
and they cant show much more because there simply doesnt seem to be much more than the diversity of procedurally generated planets and the few possible animals on it to explore and scan
>>342359759
My hype died for it when it leaked that every planet is just a recolor. Like spore but 1000 more boring since the animals are like "space dog" but this time its purple.
>>342359759I'm still excited desu, but I'm gonna wait for reviews or a torrent of it.
I still dont know what this fuckin game is about.
A planet simulator ok wtf can you do
>>342359759
I'm still interested but I can't be bothered to "actively" wait for it. I'm not thinking about the game and I don't care what they say the release date is anymore. The next time I'll look at it is when I hear that it's been released.
So in a very real sense the hype is dead for me. It's just another game now.
>>342360892
"YOU CAN DO ANYTHING"
Actually you can really do about 4 things.
>>342359759
I think it'll be a nice little game, but definitely not one deserving of the "OMG PS4 EXCLUSIVE $60!!!!" hype it's gained so far.
It really should've been a budget title on Steam, XBL, and PSN.
I mean, as cool as the concept is there just isn't much to it beyond that.
>>342360892
This is what you do for 1 bajillion hours until you reach the core of the universe:
1. Find new planet
2. Land on planet
3. ????
4. Have to GTFO off planet
5. Jump to 1.
Honestly the game is coming off as a huge scam for me.

That's pretty much where I am at rn. I think what ever was wrong with the game at the time of the original release date wasn't worthing taking 2 months to fix it
Especially since nobody gives 18 Quintillion fucks about it now

>>342361965
Honestly the selling point for me was that I could seamlessly fly in and out of the planets atmosphere, but as an interview revealed that's not the case. There is a short "loading period" where the player is not in control while entering or exiting a planet
>>342362654
>but as an interview revealed that's not the case. There is a short "loading period" where the player is not in control while entering or exiting a planet
If it's similar in what we've seen in demo it's fucking nothing, it's like three seconds where your ship go through the clouds or whatever
It's alright as long as the angle in which you descent into a planet is kept the same
>>342362654
srsly?
>>342361041
this and
>>342361048
this.
Honestly I think the newfags just latched into this game in hope of making Tortanic again, just look at how many people are lying or pretending to be retarded in this thread. Don't even know why, because I would assume /v/ would enjoy a dev not trying to appeal to the largest possible demographic, bu meh.
>>342360592
Yo seriously? I figured. Can I get a source on that?
>>342359759
Fucking hell, yeah delays kill my hype. Thats why I waited like a week to play Uncharted cause I just stop fucking caring
>>342362654
Oh fuck that. This makes me really irritated for some reason.
No one's going to be satisfied by this game because all these normies are expecting way too much
It's just walking around on planets and looking at stuff, why do they all expect this to be revolutionary?
>>342364854
Media promising shit the devs have never said were in the game in the first place. The devs have been intentionally vague about the whole thing but places like IGN and Shitaku keep saying the game will probably have X and Y while in reality it's nothing but speculation and guessing but all the normies take this as fact because they're idiots and do no research of their own.
People stopped being hype for it because they realized they were only hyped for it because of the graphics and Sony. They don't actually know what it is.

The delay kills it. For them to delay 2 months so close to release means something is really wrong

Haven't you read? PS4 couldn't handle some RNG algorithms so they had to delay the game because of it.
Yes they delayed it because they have some agreement with sony
Show me a human being actually playing the game and I'll believe it exists.
Until then I can't care.

Search the game on YouTube and you'll find dozens.
>>342359759
The game had a insane amount of hype behind it, thats why everybody raged
As soon they announced the 2 months delay most people refunded the game. There are still planty of thread on steam talking about refunds.
They lost a lot of money because of this
>>342359759
I wasn't hyped in the first place
The game promises way too much and has shown almost no proof of actually getting their promises done. As far as I've seen the game is another walking simulator with some space flight and instead of story it has some light crafting mechanics. I bet most early access survival games have more crafting in them than this game will have
>>342359759
My hype died when they started to and still Dance around the fucking Mutiplayer question.
just fucking yes or no
>>342366665
No.
You will find canned footage recorded by the devs on one of the four same planets.
>>342366893
It's like Journey.

What the fuck is their thought progress here? Why would you even pre-order if a slight delay will make you ask for a refund

>slight delay
my friend, you do realize that the game has been delayed several times by now? This is not the first delay they announced.
Tons of people lost trust in them after this and refunded the game, this plus they started to say that you can play for billion years since there is a infinite ammount of replay value
Can somebody who was hyped for the game greentext what exactly made you hype for it?
Because from the very-getgo it looked boring to me
If it had EVE-like elements it could be goat, but the way it's set up you just explore empty planets for meaningless upgrades until you get bored of the thing
>>342367308
It only ever had 1 official release date.
>>342360227
This. And it wasn't something like attacking a base or anything you literally just kill one animal and like 5 different bots attack you. They should just let you explore. What they should do is let you go all Minecraft.
WHATS AT THE CENTER OF THE GALAXY GUYS?

That's what happens when someone thinks very basic procedural generation is enough to make a whole universe.
Dwarf Fortress is the one time I've seen procedural generation done really well, and that's years of dev time and only interesting because it's so complex.

>>342366029
Overwatch is almost as trash as NMS will be but having said that I would bet it lives a longer lifespan despite starting earlier.
People were already pointing out how it seemed destined for failure, given how every planet we've seen is pretty much the same thing, and how there doesn't seem to be any core gameplay. People will play it for about a week, realize they're just seeing lego pieces rearranged in slightly different ways, and give up on it.
Then pile the development issues on top of it, and you now have a recipe for "who cares."

>>342367857
DF works because it doesn't need to worry about generating art assets, and even then things like species aren't random so much as prefixed with bizarre adjectives like "undead" and "vampire," even if they're rabbits or skeletons.
When you start having to render things, then you have problems.

>>342368814
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqmJ8k9uBB0
There you go, I just typed "No man's sky gameplay" on youtube and that was the first result with two guy sitting on a couch. I think the other guy starts playing around 5 minutes in.
>>342369151
Wow it's literally this exact same demo here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-uMFHoF8VA
Except a journo is holding the controller maybe a quarter of the time.
That's not unscripted. It's a controlled demonstration.
We have never seen someone go loose on this game and explore the universe on their own.
>>342369451
Ye and you never will until release because they wouldn't be able to control what mechanics they show off which is the point of these presentations.
>>342369451
Oh yeah it's the same planet, but not the same demo.
Be fair, anons.
>>342369587
Well shit I thought the point of a preview was to preview the game not hide the game.
My mistake.
It gives me the impression that at any moment the illusion of a huge universe will fall to pieces the second you start exploring.
>>342369797
Since you won't get every piece of content just from exploring for 15 minutes it would be a detriment to their presentation. Having a set location on a set planet allows them to say "okay we're gonna show bases today" and not "oh fuck I have no idea what we're about to see or show off or if the features are even complete".
>>342366106
>within the confines our of game mechanics and technical limitations
>in small print: basically you can either stare at the randomly generated stuff, or you can fire your pew pew at the randomly generated stuff
>>342369797
The point is to show you want they want you to see while hiding everything that's unfinished, unpolished or straight up broken. The same applies to multiplayer "betas" these days, they're not really beta versions of the game at all, it's just a collection of what they want you to see with everything they don't want you to see removed.
>>342370096
A beta version of the game should be feature complete but with bugs and unoptimized areas.
No Man's Sky should be fully playable at this point in time, considering how close the release date is.
It should not still be in pieces.
Anyone who actually thought it would be out by now is crazy or has no idea what development looks like.
Honestly the August date sounds just as sketchy unless they actually start showing the game.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if this game turns out to be vaporware.
>>342370360
>unless they actually start showing the game.
But they showed the game, can't you take out your fingers from you ears for five minutes?
>>342369952
What's forcing them to demo the game for only 15 minutes?
>>342370536
They have one premade star system that they keep showing off in a tightly controlled demo.
Their presentation is always scripted.
How is that in any way representative of an open world game about exploring?
>>342370565
I don't think there's much demand for hour+ "demos".
>>342370565
>Game about exploration
>"Why don't they show off everything?"
You might argue that if their game can be showed off entirely in 15 minutes it's crap but the demos are mostly there to check the gameplay, so 15-20 minutes on a planet with all the stuff you want to show off on it is good enough. They've showed 40 or so planets already, so the "it's all the same shit, just copypasted" doesn't really hold anything.
>>342370565
Any longer and people will notice that everything in the game is just a palette swap.
>>342370706
>in a tightly controlled demo.
How is this a tightly controlled demo?
>>342370974
I don't know Nintendo seems to prove you completely wrong.
>>342370998
>Game with 18 quintillion planets
>Would be nice if they showed off 9 or 10
>"Why do you want them to show everything?!"
I'm asking to see 0% of the game, mate. Not a lot.
>>342370998
It holds plenty when they're just color palette swaps of the same damn planet.
>>342370998
I haven't seen a gameplay demo where they consecutively visit multiple random planets without cutting the video.
I can't wait for this game to bomb
>>342371367

>>342371539
Holy shit what part of unscripted don't you understand?
I feel like I'm speaking to a retard right now.
>>342371503
Why? Why would it be a good thing for a game to be bad?
I'm looking forward to it myself. I'm not expecting it to be the second coming but I think it will be a fun game with more depth than people are expecting.
>>342371970
Shit games deserve to bomb
>>342371970
I want it to teach people a lesson
>>342371773
>Holy shit what part of unscripted don't you understand?
What was unscripted in the first trailer? It's just a guy coming out of a cave and taking off.
I think you already made up your mind and if I bother looking up videos where they go from one planet to another without a cut it's scripted so it won't count, and if there's a cut of some guy talking in the middle of the video it's obviously made to edit outthe loading screen so it won't count either. See you in august where the webms start dropping, I guess?
>>342372264
Spore exists and nobody learned a lesson.
>Exploration
>In a procedurally generated world
>>342372058
And it's a shit game because?
>>342372358
I believe that you can transition from a planet to space without a loading screen.
I don't believe in the planet variety because they've been very coy about what they've shown off in a single gameplay video.
Don't get me wrong, I'm excited to see more of this game, but I'm not excited for the game itself because there are still too many unknowns.
>>342372020
>more depth than people are expecting
The problem is people are expecting more depth than is possible. People are expecting the game to be something that it simply cannot be.
>>342372403
I find it funny that this game actually looks like it has less shit to do in it than Spore
