2023, No Man's Sky is still getting updated and won another award for being a game people are still playing years after release.
I still love playing it, story isn’t that good but holy shit it’s such an amazing open world/universe game I can’t stop playing

This is unironically the best ad for this game ever created.

This is easily the best ad the game ever had.
Artix Vektör Why not both?
Too bad the game itself is only mediocre at best, and a horrible cash grab with super-aggressive pushing for micro-transactions. Wouldn't recommend. A lot of assets and backgrounds look like they were "inspired by" (read:stolen) from Diablo 3.

The idea of basing your roadmap on carefully categorized and analyzed internet hate is so brilliant that I can overlook having adequate testing. Respect for the process.

Internet Historian, the rollercoaster of emotions.
Every erection procedural.
lol i laughed out loud so hard at the end
This was a great experience, a rollercoaster of emotions.
Internet historian makes me aroused in general
Say what you want, this is the greatest comeback from a game ever, especially how gaming companies these days disappoint people and don't bother fixing, fair play to Sean and everyone at hello games
It is never gonna stop astounding me that they had every ability to say the Christmas flood took their data, and they didn't. It was such an easy out and they didn't take it. As someone who pre-ordered and was here for the entire thing, hearing that was a sign things might just be okay in the end. Integrity is so rare.
I’m honestly convinced they made the game bad on purpose because they wanted people to drop the hype, which would mean they didn’t get their sales from hype, they EARNED it.
It was such a specific set of circumstances that required a very specific set of actions from the team for it all to work perfectly. A truly inspiring story that hopefully never has to happen again.
“Cough cough” the day before “cough cough”
No matter how many times I rewatch it, the line where you say, "After doing all this research, I couldn't help but come to the conclusion that they were the good guys," I actually start tearing up.

Bruh it's not that serious. Calm down.
@@BriskeeeenAh, shaddup.
@@ethanedwards3357 no
Same here and I don't understand why this video brings up tear. Maybe it's because we can relate to this guy who just fell in a bad spot and to come out of it he put his head down and did what he do best.
GAYYYYYYYYY
The ending is basically like the litteral opposite of Fallout 76
@honest bravado 😂😂😂
I came from FO76 after over a year...
Curious, isn't it?
yeah the stories kind of parallel eachother. Fallout 76 is exactly what people expected no mans sky to be immediately post release.

Sean Murray is a personal hero of mine. There is no better example of what to do when you’ve made a mistake. You don’t make excuses, you don’t blame anyone else, you simply own up to it and make it right. It takes a lot of courage to do that.
Gotta give the guy huge props for going through all of that stress and still sticking with it to improve the game even more than initial expectations. Also his Wife for having 3 kids and also sticking it out during all that extra pressure. Good, strong people, thats for sure.
"Guys... we failed them. We _HAVE_ to try harder." -Hello Games.
"Guys... we failed them. BIG LMAO! Let's just call _them_ the failures." -Bethesda.
"Yeah, we're not even gonna pretend we fucked up. We knew what we did and we're proud of it." -EA.
I think EA and Bethesda should be switched.
@@N0_1if3 tbh they both kinda suck
@@thegrenb2756 yeah but we gotta give them the proper labels about why they suck otherwise we'd just be liars. And liars lose all credibility when evidence to refute them appears.
Hey at least battlefront 2 was fixed
@Aravind Krishna yeah but has Bethesda blamed the fans as much as EA has or have they just doubled down on their greedy practices in order to milk some more money out of people. Example: How many times has skyrim been released, The creation club putting microtransactions on fan made mods, FALLOUT 76.

This game still got HUGE GAME CHANGING UPDATES years after release is a testament of what a team Sean Murray has built
If anyone reads this, just FYI: in the last ~3 years after this video updated, assuming it was released roughly around Next Generation, the game was updated to have:
- pet companions that can be reproduced, traded and genetically modified; you can also ride and fly them
- expeditions, minicampaigns with exclusive rewards
- three new classes of ships (alien, solar and sentinel)
- three new multitools (royal, sentinel rifle and sentinel pistol)
- more Sentinel lore
- pirate lore: outlaw stations, smuggled goods etc
- revamped freighter construction (better graphics and mechanics)
- lots of improvements in graphics, UI, etc
Bunch of more stuff! And all for free!
Thanks for putting the effort to update the comments! I was looking for this
No asteroids yet?
@@theunicornbay4286 unfortunately no, not that i know of
Add a few more multitool types now, the Staffs are really cool
They've since added Freighter battles where you can take down giant star ships, and even do a trench run! It feels amazing in VR.
Classic "hero's journey":
- humble beginnings
- rising expectations
- the fall
- redemption
I guess 3 out of 4 technically passes.
And then fan fictions
damn.. you should write a book
Exactly, I respect this man tremendously
Reminds me a lot of Battlefront 2 and the lootbox controversy.
“If the universe is so big, why won’t it fight me?”

Merry Christmas Hello Games !
Do not worry Sean Murray, it is 2023 and E3 has failed, while No Man's Sky has redeemed itself.
*Bethesda:* We aren't planning on doing anything about it.
*HelloGames:* We're going to make amends for it.
Based Sean Murray destroying the competition
Bethesda is doing something about it, they are adding NPCs, brand new locations, and a bunch of new features. Basically an entire rework. I hope it’s good
ManyGalaxy He was referring to one of the sentences for the help and support messages.
What's insulting to this game is that bethesda is actually using this kind of success story to excuse their hot garbage. "It's about what the game becomes."

I can not believe he got this ad approved.

I generally skip ads, but this was so well done that I actually watched it twice
Actually, Sean's reaction - to treat all the complaints and bitching and whining as data - is pure fucking genius.
Genuinely genius. Because, like, who the hell does that? No-one else even thinks that.
But it's a next level strategy.
As that one episode of Star Trek had it, "turn disadvantage into advantage" - every complaint becomes a data point on a graph that charts how to turn it all around.
He kept listening to the audience, even when they were freaking out and sending him death threats. He still kept listening.
And channelled out of it exactly what people were expecting, extracted a plan out of it and then implemented that plan perfectly. Suppressing his own ego to a level that would make even a Vulcan jealous.
He deserves a fucking award for that alone, frankly.
It's really fucking hard and it's really fucking clever. That Chess move is god tier, basically.
Especially the fact he did that while the studio was being hit with unimaginable stress with things like constant hate mail, death threats, etc etc
And he kept quiet and did what needs to be done instead of lashing out at his customers. Truly revolutionary.
Fixing what people complain about? Fucking genius.

Whatever else one can say about Hello Games, it's beyond obvious that they genuinely care about making No Man's Sky a great game, and always have.
Listening to this video in 2024 is what made me want to play this game.

its still shit.

No matter how much time has passed, I always end up here, rewatching this masterpiece yet again.
Man it’s not like this was Bethesda either. I didn’t realise they were a tiny indie dev.
I’d buy this out of sheer respect.
Maybe this is the reason he left EA. He was actually one of the good guys after all.
PLOTTWIST!!!
"People found planetary rotation confusing"
Oh. So they got the flat earth society to beta test.
On a more serious note, I was one of the most vicious critics of this game on launch, and I'll stand by my statements of people who tried to apologize for Sean and co. at that time are some of the worst sorts of people.
I still think it's far from perfect, but after buying it 50% off in 2018, I can say I had fun and it was worth the money.
I'm looking forward to future developments. Actions always speak louder than words.
@@higgsbonbon That's great to hear. I would like to ask though, especially for those who had poured hours into the present and updated condition of the game, is it grindy? I mean, do I still have to go through the grindy routine funnily mentioned by Internet Historian at around the 18:49 mark of the video?
@@BlazeStar2095 well yes its grindy but the multitool now is powerfull to destroy thing. you can upgrade the inventory.
I really think it was moreso they just needed to beat the living shit out of Sean to get him to stop promising things they clearly could not deliver. The issue with No Man's Sky was not that it was a bad game. It was just the Sean promised too much and made the stupid braindead public with no critical thinking skills go nuts. This is not to excuse the end product, but honestly, No Man's Sky was about on-par with most AAA garbage in recent years and people just had far too high of expectations. Sean was the major reason for that. THANKFULLY, I am guessing they removed his voice box because following release, Sean basically said NOTHING for years until the game was patched into a decent game.

I came out of this video really impressed with Mr. Murray. Especially with him taking on _all_ the criticism, shielding his team from it so that they could focus on their work, and even using it to improve. That is some quality leadership right there.
36:33 holy hell i feel that he is speaking honestly through his heart that about disappointing people but knew that he actually gonna disappoints anyway, and all he can do is just wishing that he can go by the challenges that was about to come, it's literally heartbreaking

I watch this every 6-8 months. Not even a massive NMS fan (although it’s awesome in PSVR2 now). I just love the whole story of genuine redemption so much.
The part about Sean re-directing all the negative comments to his personal feed in order to let his team work was really inspirational to me.
What a boss.
Legend!
Wait, he did?!
The fact that he was the ONE man dealing with the entire fallout of one of the biggest internet beatdowns of all time, and sorting every single piece of criticism amazes me. It take a ton of determination and willpower to do that.
He really put so much into the game and the team
Moral of the story: Yes, there is a rock bottom, and yes you can still get out of there.
The only thing that stops you from getting out of rock bottom is a refusal to acknowledge you can do better.
I'd like to see Bethesda try.
@@Qwert00700 Considering every patch for FO76 seems to break something new, technically they haven't hit rock bottom. :D
Gaaaaayyyy
I mean even EA... *Eviltronics fArts* itself, was able to redeem themselves a little bit last year by allowing Respawn to publish a good Star Wars single player game with zero BS attached to it. No loot boxes, no overpriced DLC, no nothing. Just... a good game, that you can finish within about 10-15 hours. For 60$. There you go. And I was convinced that company would just eventually implode under the weight of its own greed and die, that nothing good could ever again come out of their damp putrid entrails, and they proved me wrong! If EA can do it, everyone can. Looking at you.... Bethesda. I'm still holding on to sliver of hope that Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield might be good, if not excellent games. You've always been pretty lazy with polishing out bugs, but Skyrim was an amazing foundation upon which you used to allow everyone to develop mods (including fixes for the aforementioned bugs) that made it into one of the best games of the decade! If we could just pull back to pre-Horse Armor Bethesda, that would be awesome!
When starfield came out it drove me straight back to no man sky. And I had an absolute blast.
47:02 and now we know that they actually did that... Without abandoning NMS nor neglecting it even a little bit, holy cow how did they do that with so few people??

Because the universe isn’t living. It’s... something beyond that... Divine.
That’s actually a dope line, I could hear that in a cheap sci-fi movie or something
But it does, its fighting everyone, all the time, in multiple ways.
2023 is almost over and I return once again to this masterpiece because it remains to this day my most favorite redemption story and I am just so happy for the team. They deserve all the praise and go up there with Larian as the most beloved studios of real people with integrity and a shining beacon of light for gaming as a whole, not operating on greed but rather on good will and a true love for their craft.
Honestly i really respect them for not just bailing out and giving out refunds and instead doing emergency surgery on the game and then reviving it back to life
"redemption"? "they deserve all the praise" no they do not.
The devs scammed everyone. No amount of word play will ever change that. Them adding free content for 8 years is not something they should be praise for. Its the bare minimal they should have to do after scamming everyone
The story of Sean is one of the most inspiring and humbling story’s I’ve ever heard. I’m not a game developer, but I did screw up in a relationship, and was demonized for my mistakes for a year now, however, just like Sean, I didn’t reach out to the one who left me, I didn’t bug them, all I did and am still doing is working on myself, and I’ve gained much more happiness than the depression I was in for the first couple months of my breakup. My point is that if someone like Sean, who disappointed everyone, can pick himself back up and reach success, anyone can do it, anyone can change and be the best version of themselves, it just takes time, and self love.
"If the universe is so big, why wont it fight me?" A quote to live by.

I've watched this video several times over the years, primarily because your comedy is timeless and never gets old. But also because I love how you go about this story, it's so well done and absolutely 💯 % correct. Fortunately as write this. Sean Murray and hello games/no man's sky have been not only completely redeemed but been a shining example of what every game developer SHOULD do when, despite best efforts or intentions, release an unfinished game. Like fall out 76 for example. Unfortunately, this story is the exception to the rule. The only reason it's a redemption story is because the entire team genuinely cares for its creation and despite how it was realized. They took the beatings like a world champ, made no promises, in fact they said nothing and just began DELIVERING. Actions speak louder than words has never rang so true. In fact everytime this happens nowadays and we get promised a shiny AAA game but get a shiny turd instead, after they've excepted our money, what do they do? They apologize but promise to fix everything in future updates, or "seasons" but then charge you for it....ugh...nvm....I love this story and I love how you portray Sean, I wish he could see this video.
I love the fact that the Games Inspector has a Monster Energy logo on his hard hat. That and the fact that Sean was flinging promises out of a Genuine Premium Canvas West Tek bag.

If I ever need damage control, I would spare no dollar to hire Internet Historian.
It's kind of funny how this game flies in the face of Shigero Miyamoto's famous "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad". That said, from the comments, I see a lot of folks have been unable/unwilling to move past the initial disappointment, which is fair, so that initial negative reception will always act as an anchor to the game, no matter how good it becomes.
i hate those kinda people but oh well.....
To be fair, the rushed game, the initial lunch will for ever be the shittiest game ever. They are so different from the game we have to day that it might as well a compleatly different game
Sean's relentless introverted-ness both caused the crisis and fixed it.
True
Inquisitor Shu Sean’s is a legend, they locked themselves in a bad situation, flooding, the worst critics getting hammered down their throats and they still decided to continue foward with a project that might never come back from the negativity
Great way to put it.
He had a moral code everyone thought he didn't have.
We all thought he was a smug con-artist while he was in fact suffering for 3 years. I wouldn't be able to deal with that pressure, but he did it and kept working even after he had the money to set him for life. Seems like an honorable man after all.
This really show that they just liked making games and things just got bad real quick
Nonetheless I'm happy that they never gave up, did the right thing and after this video I might just buy this game
We're reaching a point where I can't even tell if he's actually shilling RAID, or if this is all just one mega ironic meta piss take.
He actually did, before the meme blew up Internet Historian Mascotted as "shadowman" when he shills raid.
He shills in shitposts
He's shilling raid and orange ninja shitting on it at the same time, it's great.
it's absolutely a piss take, but it's a piss take they are paying him to give.
he's making fun of them and running off with their money, win win
if raid allows ads like his, we need more pr people like them.
Theyre pretty smart financially just by working on the game as well. Because it's still a huge game that people wanted to succeed. A Universe to explore? Procedurally generated worlds? Space flight? At the time, there was no other game like it, and there still isn't not even Starfield has what No Man's Sky has. Just by working on the game, not only did they make the game better, but it also helped them spread again like wildfire. You could say the initial release date of No Man's Sky had two of them. The first release date was when the game came out, and the second release date when the game was completely overhauled with features and bugfixes. Everyone swarmed in and hopped on that No Man's Sky train the moment they overhauled the game.
First time my gf watched this video (my third, humbly bragging). My big oh shit moment was what he was promising to customers, WELL BEFORE he had the means to deliver. Hers? The price tag. She said "why would you pay that much for a game from a guy you never heard of?" I took a seat.
Conclusion: Buy No Man’s sky and don’t play Raid shadow legends
shadow regends
I bought a new copy for 5 euros when the game was in a bad state after launch. The gamestore was desperate to get rid of these games. When the upgrades dropped they raised the price again. Crazy
@mieze :3 look everyone, he uses Linux! Bow down to how intelligent and superior he is compared to us silly Windows users. Bask in how his smug arse has to wait months to years for a half-arsed port that is guaranteed to crash and is full of bugs.
No, it's still boring busy work. Don't buy either.
@@nxxynx5039 Okey dokey.
Sean Murray is like if Tod Howard went through character development.
Sean Murray is AU Todd Howard where he isnt corrupted, he even has the facial hair!
Sean Murray isn't a little lying rat fuck though. I think he legitimately tried to produce a good game but he had such little experience and a small team that he didn't have the time or money to do what he wanted initially.
sean murray is an alternate universe version of todd howard who got sent through a wormhole and saw how much of a piece of shit his alternate self was and decided to do better
todd sue.
@@FlamingAtheist Sean isnt australian
Murray and the team really redeemed themselves, and the realization about him speaking on behalf of everyone about it and getting caught up in a runway hype train really put things in perspective. It grew into something he never anticipated, but they made it right. Nothing but respect for them for how they handled it and never stopped on their promises.
4 years later this game is about to hit 80% positive reviews on Steam. What a redemption arc
It never crossed my mind that Hello Games was that small of a studio. Jesus.
Size of studio can be used to explain why things happend, but not as excuse for the fact that they happened in first place.
Yeah, it's the cautionary tale of why you actually do need PR guys and to stay the fuck away from publishers and journos until you're ready for beta.
@@washboardman7435 and yet, if you do that, you throw away your best chance at reaching a large market. How many indie games (or AAA games for that matter) can you think of that got large market PR keeping quiet and not publicizing until release?
Also, Hello Games made bank off the people who bought in initially, which gave them room to develop. If they hadn't moved copies that first year, the updates would have never come.
@@chell272 I didn't write not to publicize until release, I wrote don't talk to the press until you have your beta ready. Beta testing is after development: you're less likely to do what Murray did and promise a bunch of things journos will puff up. Teasing with pre-alpha footage is fine.
Plus, while it's what you look for in a company for Hello Games to fix their mess, and bro-tier they released features not even promised along with the bug fixes and promised stuff, they don't want to make a reputation out of releasing something belonging to early access as a finished game then fixing it.
@@washboardman7435 while I appreciate your clarification, my statement stands regardless.
Hello Games bet on themselves, got mainstream recognition, and then built to meet expectations after the fact. It's almost necessary in this day of countless, nameless crowdfunded projects and near impossible competition with AAA.
Hello Games isn't a cautionary tale, it's a high stakes gamble that paid off. Sean Murray's is a winner's tale.
Internet Historian's ad for Raid Shadey Legends is better than the actual gameplay.
To be homest, being punched in the balls is better than the actual gameplay
Raid doesn‘t even have actual gameplay. They literally added a feature that makes the game play itself
If only other people put effort into their sponsor vids as much as Internet Historian.
It's the ultimate sarcastic ad
@@quetzalcoatl8109 These are literally the only sponsor bits I don't skip on TH-cam.
If the universe is so big, why won't it fight me? Fucking gold
Glad I came back to watch this, actually made me tear up from how happy I am for Sean, such an amazing guy. I don’t think I would have had the strength to do what he did
“It’s not an ad”
Then what the fu-
“It’s an erotic fanfic”
Why aren’t we starting already
"This is where the fun begins"
“Now this is podracing!”
Sean pounding my [redacted] with his [redacted]
Desu Vult Can you give me the source of your profile picture? The other guy with that profile pic won’t give it to me.
Your name and profile pic do not correlate brother
Holy shit this is the best ad I've ever seen: " You've contracted ... RAIDS!"
Thats great
best joke ive heard yet in 2020
The game IS fuckin RAIDS
wow. raid has actually let someone off the script...
I just grabbed this over Black Friday. Interesting to learn the back story. Glad they stuck to it. The game is beautiful.
The No Man's Sky story is both heartbreaking and also so satisfying. Sean Murray is an absolute warrior for putting up with all of that and, somehow, having 3 kids in that span of time. I hope to be the leader he was on that team for my own projects. Glad they were all able to come out of that on the upside.
I feel like he's seeing how sarcastic he can make his commercials before Raid stops sponsoring him
Who said that they are actually sponsoring him?
I'm seriously surprised they continued after the previous sponsor they did with him 😂 but it doesn't really surprise me, in the end all lazy mobile games like Raid care about is getting their name exposed to as many potential pay-pigs as possible.
i think they accepted how much of a meme the game has become that they just let people do whatever when they advertise the game.
makes you wonder just what sseth did that made them not like the ad.
I think the point of Raid's advertising is just to scream their name the loudest instead of trying to make their game seem amazing.
I think it’s so impressive how Sean did so many interviews. For someone who is afraid of being on a stage in front of people, that’s a big deal to do even once. And you can tell in the video of him doing his tell all about his experience making the game, he is much more comfortable doing it. He seems natural. He faces his fears, all during the most stressful time in his life
That use of the hyperspace travel flash to illustrate the climax of that story at the end was pure genius.
That "I worry about disappointing people..." hit me really hard
Same
Why do you remind me of someone~ eh just a hunch nvm
Why do you remind me of someone~ eh just a hunch nvm
Disappointing your father. A crushing feeling.
Disappointing millions of customers. A statistic. (pun intended, he used the stats)
Oh
"sponsored by the game that everyone loves"
omg lego star wars: the complete saga sponsored this video?
"who are you"
"Rey-..."
"-d shadow legends, a revolutionary new anal cough"
Kinda unrelated but apparently Lego SW TCS is on the Google play store now, discovered it today. No idea if it's on the app store or not but it's cool
no you idiot it's sponsored by run 3 from cool math
Nah man it was Star Wars Republic Commando
I thought this was sponsored by fallout 76, did I watch the video wrong?
I started almost a month ago, and now i have over 485 hours.
This is the best game i have ever played. No other game(maybe minecraft and terraria) had me playing this much!
Now, compared to those times(2016) I cant imagine what it would be like if No mans sky would be like this, how it is now, in 2016!
But maybe this game needed to be blasted and bad from the start. Because HELLO GAMES proved us that they really mean it, what they wanted and have planned. EA, ACTIVISION...LEARN FROM HELLO GAMES. KEEP PROMISES AND CARE ABOUT AUDIENCE.
Sorry...sentiment in action. This game is really cool!
There is nothing to be proud of in spending so much time on a game.
I remember in the UK; that no matter how much drama their was over the negative reception of this game, CEX were still selling second-hand copies for like £40
Used games/dvd store@@wayloncurt6809
"Well if the universe is so big, then why won't it fight me?"
Well I don't know about you but life is kicking my ass every day...
Life finds a way
edgy kid >:(
I think a lot of man in the modern age know that feeling except those spoiled brats that were born with a rich daddy and never had to work a single day of their life for anything.
Sure the universe has killed everyone to challenge it so far but if you win the fight you become God.
That is to great an opportunity to pass up. Man will prevail.
Universe is so big, that we are not even a dust. We are irrelevant. We live or died out, nothing will change to the universe.
*"If the universe is so big...then why won't it fight me?"*
Don't tempt the fates
You can get a t-shirt with this phrase from raremerch (dot) net :)
It is big and it has fought me
*sad doomer noises*
Check out raremerchnet on insta for that tshirt
U + me ->> these hands 👊👊
*Duel of the fates begins playing*
2023 STILL updating! Absolutely love this game
