Death From Above Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 I don't mind delays if it results in a better finished product. I'd rather that than a fucked up launch that needs immediate patching. Of course it will need immediate patching anyway because it's 2016, but, like, hopefully less urgent immediate patching. You know what I mean.
RIPPA Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Now - the fact that Gamestop is still promoting and taking the pre-orders makes it seem like it will be just a couple of months instead of "indefinitely"

YOU PUT THE BLAME ON ZIMBRA WHERE IT BELONGS! (Although I'm guessing that bumping the thread this prematurely didn't help. My bad.)

Gonzo Posted May 28, 2016 Author Posted May 28, 2016 Related: I'm excited for this game, don't get me wrong. But man, there are some No Man's Sky true believer types, particularly on Facebook, that have absolutely lost the fucking plot. Seriously, I swear that there are some of those folks that do nothing but post about this thing. If this isn't the Citizen Kane of video/computer games, there are going to be some pissed off folks out there.
piranesi Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 Not even owning a current-gen console I'm watching closely because if it is what it most optimistically seems like it could be then when I do buy a new console I won't have to think about which one to get. No mo FOMO!

Oh you mean like making death threats to everyone - including the director of the actual game? http://kotaku.com/i-got-death-threats-for-reporting-on-a-video-game-delay-1779617741
The Man Known as Dan Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I'm starting to realize that the "gaming culture" that exists now a days is just a toxic cloud I want nothing to do with. It's why I only play games online with people I know in real life or from here now.
J.T. Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Holy Fuck, that's insane. I like gaming but I don't think that a delay of Mass Effect: Andromeda is worthy of a death sentence. Not even an asswhipping as I'd rather get a relatively bug free game that is delayed a quarter than some unplayable bullshit that hits right on schedule. 1
Zimbra Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Pretty cool that the top two comments on that story are "Sure, threats are bad, but why did you report instead of printing a press release" and "Those weren't real threats."

odessasteps Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Another day, another story about people overreactng to something in popular culture.
Gonzo Posted June 10, 2016 Author Posted June 10, 2016 Don't let it be said that the NMS groups on FaceBook are completely worthless. I originally had my pre-order for the PS4 Limited Edition in with Gamestop, and someone in one of the groups posted that Amazon was back to taking pre-orders for the Limited Edition again. So, I switched over. Gamestop cost with S/H - $86.48 Amazon cost with S/H - $63.99 (Thank you, Amazon Prime.) So that was decent of them, at any rate.
piranesi Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I guess that's a great success for...marketing? I'm so proud of that tiny team. 4 years of promotions.

Gonzo Posted July 29, 2016 Author Posted July 29, 2016 Apparently someone's gotten their hands on a copy of the game. . .quite illegally, apparently. . .and has posted video of the opening credits and his first planet on DailyMotion.
misanthrope304 Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 yeah, I read a snippet about this on gamerant or somewhere, idk...I've been on the road for 5 hours today. heard he paid like $1250 for the leaked copy.. I like video games and all, but fuck man....I like money too. I could wait a couple more weeks or whatever and save $1200 or whatever 3
Death From Above Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 For that kind of money you could get a Very Special Copy of Shenmue III from Kickstarter (c) 1
misanthrope304 Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 or whatever look over me...residual pot smoke, road rage from lexington traffic, and very little sleep
