[QUOTE=gudman;50878712]I'm pretty sure it wasn't an attack and the "delusional" part wasn't serious. Again, I have to remind you that you have called people criticising the game, [i]regardless[/i] of validity of their criticism, "fucking bandwagoners", and it didn't happen just once. As if people can't form opinion about something based on streams and videos that can, simply due to the nature of this game, differ from your experience. No, it must be circlejerk, there's just no other way.[/QUOTE]
There's an awful lack of examples to me calling people bandwagoners [I]regardless of the validity of their criticism[/I].
You can't deny there isn't a hate bandwagon for this game. If you're going to deny that, I don't see any merit in humouring you anymore, the discussion will just go in circles.
Im going to be completely honest, if I wanted to explore an entire universe I would just play Space Engine or something. At that point its sort of like just gazing at astrophotography pictures, and Space Engine does that better than this game.
I recall Hybrid going full defense force when Watch Dogs was released and AFAIK this WILL go in circles.

Are you serious, you want me link you your post from previous page? Or are you going to say that the game not having any closure or a reward for completing the 'main objective' isn't a valid criticism and is somehow offset by "4 stories" that are doubtfully all that different?
I just wish the game wasn't so goddamn [I]blurry.[/I]
It's been long since I've seen such ferocious defense for a game

To be honest I saw it coming from a mile away from him even before the game released.
Like hell, yeah people do seem to circle-jerk NMS and not give enough credit to the things it does well, like the procedurally generated worlds. But fuck who cares what other people on the [I]internet[/I] think ? If you are enjoying it, then that's great

The point is that getting to the center isn't the only endgame. I'm not trying to invalidate any opinion there, I'm just saying that there's more to the game than getting to the center. Also the 4 stories are completely different, about different subjects, containing different characters and ways to progress.

Out of curiosity, what [b]are[/b] the other stories?
Obviously you should spoiler-tag them, but I am interested. I've been on the fence about paying the full $60, but I have a few friends who have been having lots of fun with the game, all the reviews I've watched it (most of them lambasting the game) have actually made me [B]more[/B] interested in the game, but if it's just going to the center, I don't think that's enough to incentivize me.
If the other stories are unique enough, though, then I might pony up after all.

Lmfao there's no hate bandwagon.
You overreact to literally any criticism CONSTANTLY.
Like there aughta be an FTC investigation with how often you get mad/defend over this game for the smallest things, even after it comes and you can't fall back on "but it's not out!" and everyone's fears ran true.

I dunno.. if you look at the main thread for this game lots of people seemed to have enjoyed this game and have not regretting their purchase either and are still having fun with it.

other than the atlas path quest, which is a story in itself, there are 3 stories told about the histories of the 3 races that you uncover by finding ruins or monoliths or other ancient artifacts. There's also [sp]these 2 recurring characters that have things going on with them as well[/sp].
I really cba to write a summary for them, sorry. Tbh just watch a video of unedited, uncommented gameplay and if you're still iffy just wait for a sale.

like you guys go off on people all the time over this game because they defend it so much yet every thread i see about NMS you are posting in it like an asshat yourself so I don't really get it.
like me and you got banned about 2 weeks ago for this shit dude
Yeah but you need to meet someone and have a knife to get stabbed
Then there's medical bills
And court costs
It's not as free as league of legends
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;50878087]No they don't, they're [sp] shortcuts to the center [/sp][/QUOTE]
Explain how I watched BadNewsBaron streaming the PS4 launch-day updated build, and when prompted to choose between having [sp]a shortcut, an Atlas station, or something else[/sp] added to his galaxy map nav, he chose [sp]shortcut[/sp] and found [sp]a black hole[/sp] that did the following:
Before he activated it, he was ~170kLY away from the galactic core. After he activated it, he was ~170kLY from the galactic core. The game told him he traveled 847kLY and [sp]the surrounding star systems were completely undiscovered[/sp]. That doesn't seem like [sp]a shortcut to the center[/sp] to me.
If you've experienced otherwise, that suggest the results are a) dependent on the path you chose, b) semi-random, or c) functionality was changed between PS4 launch and PC launch.
IMO It has a lot of potential for more content, the marketing done leaves a sour taste and overall it's a pretty mediocre game.
Doesn't mean I'm putting in the mud or in the GOAT category, it just means some people are gonna like it, some people aren't, no need to be upset about that tbh.
Time to stop getting so agitated over video games.

I've done the same thing a few times and still remain in Euclid galaxy. The shortcut doesn't travel directly inwards, it's like hopping across. You travel 847k LY (my last jump was actually over 1m LY) but only travel 2k LY closer.

I haven't personally pushed the storyline far enough to have these things happen to me so I haven't personally experienced it, but that's not exactly what I'd describe as a [sp]shortcut[/sp]. Then again, the game's about letting you figure things out, so..
"Decency" was perhaps a bit of a strong word for what I meant, but, yeah. That "brigade" thread was anything but, even though the metacritic user score was getting bombed into the stone age while it was happening.
