Hello Games's release of No Man's Sky was a massive gamble that was more likely to fail than not. They shouldn't have been forgiven for the false advertising and broken promises. Half the gaming industry seems to have gotten the idea that it's okay to release a half-baked mess for $30-$70 and then maybe fix it later.

Spicy, I like it. On one hand, that's all true. On the other hand, we rarely get games that are even as good as No Man's Sky is now.

I liked the original pitch where you were supposed to be exploring this strange, empty, hostile galaxy. Now it feels like the game just got turned into Fortnite in space. I don't want to need a base or anything.
