Honestly didn't hate Spore. Sure it didn't have as much as it made it sound like it would, but it was still rather fun to play imo.

[–]ixione47 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

tbh they shouldve made the last "gamemode" the rts one. spore felt more like a 5in1 game then an actual stand-alone game. think about it.

we had:

  • feeding frenzy

  • some sort of action adventure

  • some sort of rpg

  • some sort of rts

  • explore the universe light versionTM

i loved the rts and rpg parts of the game but they felt rather short sadly

[–]locustghazi 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I loved the creature and space stage, but they could of thrown in some random events or something to break up the constant expand build expand build. I just wish they would of added the aquatic stage hell I'd pay for an expansion pack just of the aquatic stage.

[–]dee_c 22ポイント23ポイント  (32子コメント)

I think NMS will be viewed at similarly. I also think they wouldve received less flak if this was co-op exploring and not single player.

Adding in co-op tends to dull the pitchforks.

[–]Braden0732 33ポイント34ポイント  (28子コメント)

From the onset and in every single interview the devs have done they have specifically talked about how No Man's Sky was never meant to be multiplayer or co-op.

It drives me fucking nuts every time I read, "DAE think No Man's Sky is going to suck because there is no multiplayer!?"

I honestly don't know what else the developers could have done to temper expectations, but people are still going to be pissed. We all know there will be 100's of negative reviews on Steam the very first day with kids who have 0.8 hours playtime and are butt-hurt they can't play with their friends because they never bothered to read the game description.

If your going to hate No Man's Sky, do it because there isn't diverse content, or enough action, or lack of a story, or too few of goals. Don't hate on it for something that it has never claimed to be.

[–]ZaggahZiggler 23ポイント24ポイント  (13子コメント)

I thought in one of the interviews they stated that its multiplayer in that everyone is exploring the same universe but its so large it will be rare to run into others

[–]Stick_handle_my_dick 7ポイント8ポイント  (12子コメント)

That's the problem. That's exactly what they said. And still say. I think it would of just been better if they said, it's not multiplayer. Because saying that there's a chance, however slim, means there's still a chance. So why not just tell us what happens if we find each other? I feel like it's cuz their hiding something.

[–]Whales96 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's almost as if they want their game to have surprises. Weird concept.

[–]shaggy1265 8ポイント9ポイント  (8子コメント)

So why not just tell us what happens if we find each other?

They have. You get put into the same instance/lobby and you can see each other.

That's the problem. That's exactly what they said. And still say.

They have explained how MP works and there are a bunch of articles out there about it. I'm really not sure wtf people expect them to say.

No developer goes into as much detail about their game as people expect of Hello Games. I feel like they could release a full play through video of the game and people would still accuse them of hiding something.

I think it would of just been better if they said, it's not multiplayer.

But that would have been a lie. And then you would be bitching that they lied about it instead.

You are accusing them of hiding something and saying they should have lied to their customers in the same comment. The criticism of this game is ridiculous.

[–]boobodst 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Exactly this. I feel like the feeling if you run into other players will be similar to that feeling when you ran into somebody in Journey but amplified by orders of magnitude. It's for that reason that I think it's better that the MP work the way it does.

[–]ThatNoise -2ポイント-1ポイント  (6子コメント)

The criticism is valid imo because this type of game has failed to deliver time and time again so people are rightly skeptical. I honestly won't purchase this game until I see multiple peer reviews and actual gameplay other than the release trailers by the devs.

I was burned by Spore. I refused to be burned again.

[–]Braden0732 6ポイント7ポイント  (4子コメント)

Criticism of something that is unreleased is not valid, skepticism is. Just like you said, hold off on purchasing until you read reviews and watch some game-play. At that point, criticism is welcome and valid because it will be based off of merit, not speculation.

[–]shaggy1265 -3ポイント-2ポイント  (0子コメント)

The criticism is valid

The criticism is often blatant bullshit from uninformed people who get their "news" from circlejerks on reddit.

[–]RabidHexley 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think his point is that coop tends to make people happy because things like exploring tend to naturally become more fun with company. Which isn't to say there's something wrong with it being single player, it's just that even if the game is disappointing, the simple joys of just being able to do it with a friend dulls the pain.

[–]OneMillionEyes 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Honestly, the no multiplayer is why I'm so excited about it. The game has a lot of potential based on what we know about it, and could very easily be ruined by dickbags "having fun."

I'd be far less interested if I was going to have to play with others.

[–]shenanergans 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

The thing is; exploration is better with a friend. Even if it's co-op that locks you into the same instance with someone else, discovering new and strange things with someone else is a hell of an experience that isn't the same alone. When Minecraft was new, walking around and digging and building with one or two other people was incredible. Playing Elite: Dangeous today with a friend and exploring landfall planets around the galaxy is great fun. The devs might have a vision for their product but that doesn't mean it couldn't be better or improved in one way or another.

[–]Braden0732 -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

In a perfect world with unlimited money and time, every game would be co-op and include multiplayer. In the real world, there are huge budget constraints, deadlines and a ravenous public that just wants you to release the game. It has been more than 3 years since this game was announced and is being produced by an absolutely tiny studio compared to other AAA titles out there right now.

They did not have the resources or the time to implement multiplayer. At best it would have been shoe-horned in a buggy and incomplete multiplayer and delayed the game another year.

Instead of expecting developers to cater to gamer's every wish, maybe we should do better jobs at gamer's at appreciating the content that has been created and temper our expectations a bit more.

[–]codeferret 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

I dunno. Multiplayer does exist. And one of the goals is supposedly to reach the center. As in to slowly congregate all the players into the same spot.

Considering it seemed like you can just shoot each other no problem, I'm anticipating things being very multiplayer in the core of the galaxy.

[–]Braden0732 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Exactly! I literally said/guessed the exact same thing 20 days ago.

[–]ProceduralDad 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Popular fan theory is that once you get to the center of the galaxy you are whisked away to a different one. Thus, no player buildup.

There's also no real evidence that you "can just shoot each other no problem." Devs have been very cagey in talking about what exactly you can and can't do if you encounter another person.

[–]ztpurcell 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's an immersive exploration game. That's like saying you want co-op Gone to The Rapture or co-op Fallout 4 or co-op Subnautica. It would ruin the atmosphere most definitely. I do love multiplayer games; don't get me wrong. But every game I've played in multiplayer is far less immersive. For example, Dying Light is incredibly immersive playing alone but a lot less serious with friends

[–]msevenze 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

The difference is that Spore advertised all these features, and it was gutted or dumbed down for the final release.

No Man's Sky advertised itself as an exploration game first and foremost. And then they added a few features like minor combat, some trading, and some other things.

People ran with it. They said you could do X. And then people just assumed A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P would also be included. Because X is there!!!

The insane hype around NMS is the fan's doing. They are expecting a game that was never promised.

I'm personally excited for NMS, because it seems like just the type of game I want to play. Space is big, space is boring, space is lifeless. And I get to explore that shit. But so many people are going to be bitching and moaning day 2 about how "boring" it is.

[–]exelion 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

I can't say I hated it, but I was disappointed. It promised much but delivered little.

Of course part of that was due to the massive shift in tone and direction midway through the game's development but...

[–]ztpurcell 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, I think your last point derails the comparison between the two games. Hello Games has been a close, very directed group the entire process

[–]g3istbot 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's not that people hate Spore, it's that they hate what it became. The game had so much potential, and all of it was thrown in the trash in order to dumb things down.

[–]dukeofdummies 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Honestly if they only open sourced the builder... they would become legends. So many things you could do with just that one feature.

Just imagine if you took the creature creator and applied it to the Vive. Forget about the rest of the game, just build creatures and walk around with them in a circle. Instant ten buck game. Great party game, build creatures and then sic them on your guests.

Tower defense game where you build your towers from the ground up. Your towers are summoned in front of your opponent's towers and you can swap between spawning guys to attack and killing off enemies they summon. It'd be like chat roulette, half the reason you play is just to see what the next guy built.

What about a crappy starcraft game where you built your units like clay? If you could literally beat your opponent with 100 duck sized horses and a large horse sized duck? Or if every unit was based off a fast food chain?

They could do an assassin's creed thing where they procedurally generate an alien party, you need to build an alien to blend in/take out the other players.

I can't believe they just dropped it, they're sitting on gold. So many games become interesting when you can personalize so much.

I am very thankful for Steams return policy. I will have my timer running on my first playthrough. If it looks like it's going the way of spore in the first 2 hours, I'm returning it.

[–]cfdagola 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

I put that return policy to action, and I wrote this long paragraph out on why I want a refund because it said I had to explain myself.

then I deleted it and just generally said I pulled the trigger on this to quickly and it is nothing like how I had it in my head. please respond.

Steam gave me my refund within an hour. although my bank took 5 days to have it pop back into my funds.

[–]RenegadeUberDriver 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think this might be it. The way I remember it was more of a behind the scenes with just Wright and he demo'd it without any audience... But it has been more than a decade since I watched it so there's that.

TIL EA is the only company that can lie and fail to deliver on promises they make.

These guys are indie, they can't be scumbags and they can't be misleading because they are indie right?

[–]samuraivillain 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

You're right, EA is not the only ones that can lie and swindle. However, when you're reputation is known for that,l you tend to get used as a reference.

For clarification for you my comment was more a jab at EA for being a notoriously shitty company

[–]Whales96 0ポイント1ポイント  (5子コメント)

Well it's less likely because they don't have a big name like EA where people will continue to buy games even if they're shitty. Obviously it can happen, but it's a lot more harmful for them to do.

[–]banana_nation 0ポイント1ポイント  (4子コメント)

I fail to see how it's less likely. They have a lot more on the line, sure. But that doesn't mean they are less likely to lie about features in their game.

[–]Whales96 4ポイント5ポイント  (3子コメント)

But it does. They don't have a name to get them by, so they can only succeed on their own merits. A company doesn't purposefully shoot itself in the leg. I know it's easier to think of people in this context as good or bad, but it's not the case. They pursue money, and so they pursue good games.

[–]banana_nation -2ポイント-1ポイント  (2子コメント)

They pursue money, and so they pursue good games.

They all do, and many fail. Their motivations are not related to how likely or unlikely they are to succeed, or to lie in order to achieve financial success.

[–]Whales96 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

It's weird that you detach motivation from quality of work. There's not much I can say to try to change that idea.

[–]banana_nation 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Because I'm not sure what makes you think that indie developers that fail and go under are any less motivated than those who succeed. Sadly willpower alone is not enough to make a good product, and whether or not Hello Games has what it takes to do so remains to be seen.

My point is that just because they are indie and "trying to make it" doesn't mean they can't be as scummy as big developers like EA.

EDIT: Also I don't think motivation is linked to quality. It's most definitely linked to the effort you'll put into it, but effort alone doesn't necessarily transfer to quality.

[–]bioreactor -1ポイント0ポイント  (6子コメント)

Indie developers tend to not have the finances to back up a failed product I think it the point, also with EA game l, for some reason, people keep buying them

[–]banana_nation 5ポイント6ポイント  (3子コメント)

Indie developers tend to not have the finances to back up a failed product

Just because they don't have the finances to afford to fail doesn't mean they won't. Indie developers and indie games fail constantly. Does this mean NMS will fail? No. It just means there's no reason it can't.

[–]bioreactor -2ポイント-1ポイント  (2子コメント)

No, I'm just saying they will try to do good

[–]banana_nation 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'm sure they will, and so did Spore's devs. Doesn't mean their intentions will translate to a good product. A good idea isn't worth much if the execution is terrible.

[–]Kung_P0w 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

[–]banana_nation 1ポイント2ポイント  (10子コメント)

How does doing some light reading give you any insight on what content the game is being shipped with? Is anything of what you've read been written by people who have played the game for a considerable amount of time?

I fail to see how reading what people have deducted from some short "gameplay" videos gives you any knowledge on what the actual game will be shipped off with.

[–]RoRo25 -2ポイント-1ポイント  (9子コメント)

Is anything of what you've read been written by people who have played the game for a considerable amount of time?

Yes. Most of the info comes from IGN. Who have been playing the game all the way up to and past completion.

Edit: it was Openworldgames on YouTube. Not IGN.

[–]banana_nation -1ポイント0ポイント  (8子コメント)

The same IGN that's been caught lying in multiple reviews and editing out the lies after being called out? Or the same IGN that consistently gives Call of Duty scores of 9? Yeah, thanks but I'll remain skeptical until I can see some actual game footage.

[–]RoRo25 1ポイント2ポイント  (6子コメント)

Yeah, thanks but I'll remain skeptical until I can see some actual game footage.

Dude, there has been game footage for a long time. I know you really want this game to fail for some reason, but you need to chill. Not every game being made is a lie.

[–]banana_nation -1ポイント0ポイント  (5子コメント)

I don't care if the game fails or not. I'm neither emotionally nor economically invested in it.

As for the footage, there was footage of Spore, and there was footage of Watchdogs, and there was footage of many games that ended up being nothing like the actual game. Which is why I'll remain skeptical until I can see the actual game, rather than some carefully selected footage.

[–]RoRo25 0ポイント1ポイント  (4子コメント)

Why do people only bring up spore and Watchdogs when they have this argument?

[–]Aquagoat 13ポイント14ポイント  (6子コメント)

I don't think Spore was necisarily bad, and I don't think No Man's Sky will be bad either. The problem is when people believe hype that 'you can do anything'. It happened big time with Fable 3. 'You can change the whole world, and interact with your subjects in any way!' You can wave to them, fart on them, or kill them.

All games are going to be composed of a finite set of mechanics. I think No Man's Sky is going to be fun, but people just need to realize, just because there's a gagillion planets to explore, doesn't mean exploring them isn't going to include that finite set of mechanics.

[–]SecretlyTheFlash 9ポイント10ポイント  (4子コメント)

You're right. The game is going to be the same few mechanics just in a different skin when you visit the new planet. It's gunna be a giant rinse and repeat game.

[–]ThatNoise 5ポイント6ポイント  (3子コメント)

Your being downvoted. But history has shown us procedural games like this are exactly as you say.

What is it people? Everyone always talks about voting with your wallet, remain skeptical about games until they are released, don't pre order! But for this game it's like there's abject disdain over the criticism from fanboys/girls who haven't been burned in the past.

I mean what's wrong with people being skeptical? I mean if the game turns out amazing then there is no harm done by those who were skeptical. You win. And they win as well because their skepticism was never realized and everyone can enjoy a game that delivered. Skepticism will never hinder a truly great game that delivers.

I for one, would prefer everyone be skeptical, the game fails, and then developers rethink how they make and market games because they realize their fan base can't be fooled any longer. And if it does succeed and is great? Well shit, that's a win-win.

[–]Kung_P0w 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

My optimism now comes from Starbound. This game had a massive amount of ambition and Kickstarter success. The EA alpha was really shaky and turned me off. Years later they hit full release and they nailed it. The survival aspects, the difficulty, the core mechanics are a lot of fun. The procedural-generation of mobs, planets, and dungeons are a bonus but not the tent-pole of the game.

[–]banana_nation 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

And yet people get butthurt every time someone says this game will be very similar to Starbound. For the record I'm not talking about you specifically.

[–]Braden0732 -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Thank you. I'm banging my head against the wall trying to explain this at the top of this post.

Hold off on purchasing it until the reviews are out and also hold off on any criticism. Be skeptical as humanly possible, that is a good thing. Just temper your expectations and try and be objective and thoughtful before purchasing something or criticizing it before you or anyone else has even had a chance to try it.

I think if pre-purchasing went away we wouldn't even be having this sort of conversation.

People like to shit all over this game cause people got a little over excited for it. I'm excited for it. I've watched all the videos, read every detail I can get my hands on. It looks like a fun game and I know exactly what to expect. You can never do anything you want in a video game. There are always limits. Just cause people are excited for a game doesn't mean you should just shit all over it. If the concept doesn't interest you don't buy the game

[–]Rupoe 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yes! And there's been no significant change in art ala Spore. They haven't over-promised anything because they've been so tight-lipped about features in the game. I mean, ffs, we're just learning that you can make animals be friendly to you, can repair your ship, etc. They haven't set anything but the basic expectations. If people are disappointed on release that's because they set their expectations too high.

I don't know why I come to the comment section of NMS posts, it's always a bunch of straw man arguments over a game non of us have played. I don't know if it's going to be good and you don't know if it's going to be bad, that's all a matter of opinion anyway.

[–]snowhusky5 8ポイント9ポイント  (5子コメント)

A lot of people seem to think that just because there are seventy quintillion planets, NMS has to be some sort of epic masterpiece. It is easily possible that there are only 2 or 3 dozen meaningful differences between planets, and once you've seen one you've seen them all. If anyone has played Starbound then you know what I am talking about. I once saw a video, seven reasons why NMS will be great or something, and literally every reason was (based off of) the fact that the universe is so huge. It's very easy for procedural generation to get very boring very fast.

[–]Relevant_Elephants 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Even if the game sucks the concepts used to make it are really cool and would great if applied to other genres. I'm hoping this kind of procedural generation makes it into other games in some form.

[–]OneMillionEyes 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Honestly, if what information there is about the game right now isn't enough to know if you'll like it or not, you very probably won't. Especially since you (or whoever cobbled that pic together) have already decided how you feel about it before even getting to try it.

Besides, Spore was fun for what it was. Say what you want about devs breaking promises, but the final product, however lacking based on expectations, wasn't that bad. NMS hasn't made any promises that it can't deliver from what I can see. The real issue is that a lot of people won't enjoy what it has to offer. Which is fine. The less of you there are exploring, the more there will be for me.

I don't think this is at all like when a developer will have a review embargo when their game is clearly not finished and the reviews would reflect that. In order to keep their game from not selling well. The reason I think hello games is hiding things, is so that we can discover things on our own. Another reason is that anything that they show us isn't going to be something that we may come across seeing as how everything is procedurally generated. so everything we've seen in trailers so far we would never perhaps even see. So I'm just taking things with a grain of salt because I have a lot of faith they wouldn't have spent as long as they did on this game if it wasn't the best thing they can possibly put out. And even if there are hiccups I think we should be forgiving because of the massive scope and scale of this game. There just isn't a whole lot you can do about bugs.

I'm so excited!!!

Before spore was released in read that it would take 72 years for a person to visit every planet in the game.

I was so hyped for Spore when I was a kid. Slammed my hard earned money down on the counter when I realized it was in-stores. Took it home, installed it.

Played for about 2 hours and went "This is nothing like I expected."

This is exactly my fear for NMS

Space Stage is actually based on Type 3 on the kardashev scale.

Edit: Added two links in. I thought they would both be useful.

I got spored years ago, I wont let it happen again.

Good one, I don't think spore is that bad, but it was disappointing for sure.

Aw damn son. He went there.

Seriously though, this is the feeling that hits me every time i'm done masterbating to the new trailers.

I was hoping it would say "From The Creator of Joe Danger".

I'm gonna buy NMS just like everyone else. But I feel like I'm gonna play it 5 hours and then never again. While the premise looks cool. I just think its gonna end up being super boring.

If spore was great for any reason, it was this:

I just don't get the hype. The game may have an astronomical amount of physical content... But it seems like there will be nothing to actually do.

[–]iwearadiaper -1ポイント0ポイント  (21子コメント)

Gotta love how that circlejerk compare NMS to Spore even if they have absolutely nothing in common, from gameplay to the whole concept to the team working on it to the publisher to the year it have been done. I swear some are just hoping for it to crash.

[–]banana_nation -2ポイント-1ポイント  (19子コメント)

Not sure if you are intentionally ignoring why people compare them or if you are simply unaware.

[–]iwearadiaper -1ポイント0ポイント  (18子コメント)

Go on? Because i know both games and they have nothing in common. From A to Z. Keep wishing to see NMS crash, its going to be great and we'll enjoy it while salty people will just hate us for having fun with it.

[–]banana_nation 2ポイント3ポイント  (17子コメント)

What people are referencing is the fact that Spore promised so much and delivered on nothing. They are implying it will be the same with this game. Frankly it wouldn't be surprising if it were true.

[–]iwearadiaper -1ポイント0ポイント  (16子コメント)

lol... make some research at least before saying that, they shown more than enough already for it to have those promises. People are just butthurt about it and i just don't get why. Better be salty and cynical about it than just enjoying it right my little special snowflake you?

[–]banana_nation 0ポイント1ポイント  (15子コメント)

they shown more than enough already for it to have those promises

So did Spore you dumbass, that's why people are making this comparison.

And yes, of course it's better to be cynical rather than fanboying over something that still doesn't exist. People aren't butthurt about the game, people are butthurt about retards like yourself who keep praising something that they haven't played and that still doesn't exist. It not about the game, it's about its mongoloid sheeple fanbase.

[–]iwearadiaper -2ポイント-1ポイント  (14子コメント)

omg... I can see you in your bed making scenarios and fantasizing in your head about the game being release and reviewers giving 3/5 on 10 and everyone saying it sucks while you rub your tits saying everyone is an idiot for having faith in the game while you were that super intelligent way better than anyone person. Its pretty hilarious.

[–]banana_nation 1ポイント2ポイント  (11子コメント)

omg... I can see you in your bed hugging your Sean Murray body pillow sucking on the dildo you strapped onto it while praising his still unreleased videogame. It's pretty hilarious.

[–]iwearadiaper 0ポイント1ポイント  (10子コメント)

But in the end i'll be right doing so because he will have made an incredible game and you will be in the corner shitting balls of salt. Enjoy your day i guess?

[–]banana_nation -4ポイント-3ポイント  (9子コメント)

See? You are the reason why people think NMS' fans are retarded.

he will have made an incredible game

You have no fucking idea, stop praising something that doesn't exist. It's physically painful to see so much retardation concentrated in a single person. I've met people who were actually mentally handicapped and had more common sense than you do.

[–]zanics 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

every response from you in this comment chain is you fantasizing in your head about what kind of person the other guy is and everyone who says nms is going to be boring

[–]iwearadiaper -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Its because the hate is not more legit than loving it. In fact, there is way more proofs that it will be great than saying it will be a let down, but of course the special snowflakes that want people to not enjoy it think they are the one that possess the truth and common sense. Its pretty pathetic you know?

[–]pcream 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

The hype is definitely ridiculous, but it's better than forking over $60 for the next COD 12, AC 15, etc. Some thought went into it at least, instead of the traditional "Let's make the next version, this time you're in France!" development process.

If you go into no man's sky expecting spore your gonna get burned, if you go into no man's sky expecting a pure exploration game then your gonna have fun; that said I would like the game 1000x more with pokeballs so I could collect all the cute creatures I see on my travels.

[–]modashi 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Just because Peter Molyneux has made an ass of himself multiple times with outlandish promises doesn't automatically mean that Hello Games will do the same. Reserve your opinions for when you actually play the game, you're going to hate something if you convince yourself you hate it. Right now, you guys are just giving NMS flak because some unrelated tool got you butthurt.

[–]chucara -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

This was my first thought when I heard about an entirely procedurally generated game. I'd rather have one brilliantly designed country than billions of flavorless planets.

I really, really like the idea though, and hope it lives up to some of the hype (it's impossible to live up to all of it).

It will be interesting to see if No Man's Sky can break the issue of focusing purely on procedural content requiring gameplay to be extremely shallow.

But man there's 18 quintillion planets! That's a lot of planets! please buy our game
