Sean Murray was excited to see The Engoodening of No Man's Sky, and it helped bump sales too. He tweeted about it... And then sent a second tweet in all caps pleading people to not watch the last 5 minutes.
That I didn't know but that's f***ing hilarious
But then he posted an image of the sales bump graph on Steam and said, "actually maybe its ok"
Shoot it's making me wanna play it and I haven't touched it since day one. But I'm kinda stuck in hardship breaker lol
@@thetwistedspartan4602 wtf is hardship breaker

I guess it's a version of Hardspace: Shipbreaker where the economy prevents you from buying a spacesuit.
Procedural generation is essentially when a algorithm is used to create the world/environment in real time as you play. A good example would be minecraft.
technically anything not just the environment but yes it's a robot that uses an algorithm to create content
:)
I was thinking the same thing hahah, Minecraft is a great example, especially now with the infinite worlds
You could also say that line "no 2 planets are alike"
@@amel888 there still a integral limit.
You know. There are still unmapped sections of the 255 galaxies in no man's sky. You can still spawn in to unexplored space. And massive galactic groups create "civilized" space
@@dacomputernerd4096 mine is too, I’ve discovered at least five planets on my first day playing. I’ve colonized almost all of them!
I love how throughout the video you were so empathetic for Sean Murray even before hearing his side of the story
The company that bought the company Sean worked for is called EA and is widely known for buying game companies and destroying them, so the fact that they left and made their own studio and then had to figure out what to make is more understandable in that context.
After the game was at the level they promised they did not stop, they made like a brazilion more updates and several expansions.
No Man's Sky is the greatest comeback in gaming history.
From one small step off the starting line...
...to a giant leap with each update 👨🚀
28:30 "Scrolling through a bowl of cheerios."
Everyone rated it 0/10.
the face of the guy in the fanfic was Pyrocynical
This game has gone from one of the worst games ever to one of the best games around and one of my favorites to play. This is just a true happy ending redemption story.
And yet Hello Games is STILL releasing massive updates and content additions FREE of charge to the point a lot of people are now asking them to release a paid DLC so they can give back to the devs for the work they have put in making the game what it has become.
Okay, when fans ask for a DLC to be released, that's when you know its a good game. (I started playing a week or so ago and I cannot put my console down. Which is a problem when I have to study for finales exam😅)
A cheerio is in the shape of an O or a zero. That's why it's like scrolling through a bowl of them.
That was my second thought. My first is that he was just saying they're all the same but the beauty of it is that it works both ways I guess.
"Scrolling through a bowl of cheerios" was in reference to the number of 0's reviewers were giving the game as a score rating.
"In computing, procedural generation is a method of creating data algorithmically as opposed to manually, typically through a combination of human-generated assets and algorithms coupled with computer-generated randomness and processing power. In computer graphics, it is commonly used to create textures and 3D models." -Google
I've actually played No Man's Sky and just...wow...its true what they say. You will *never* forget your first experience with that game, it is one of the most breath taking, heart slowing, jaw dropping "open world" genre games I've ever played in my entire life. And I would be ECSTATIC to see Lauren play it on stream.
The vr is good too I can't believe the size of everything and I shudder at the literal size of the game
The story of No Man's Sky truly is one for the ages! Ya can't help but keep hoping more Devs would show the same level of dedication to their games... but alas, here we are in 2022. : )
and that list of other games when showing the collectors editions when talking about expectations of a $60+ game. am i wrong in thinking that each one of those was also seen as a disappointment on release? I know a couple of them got alot of hate upon release.
28:19 "Like scrolling through a bowl of Cheerios" because it's just a bunch of zeroes.
And just in case you thought the story ended there. Since this video we've received 12 main updates, 3 smaller ones and 8 expeditions. This year the game is coming to Switch, PSVR2, macOS and iPadOS. They aren't stopping anytime soon. ;)
...and somehow...
It just keeps getting better...
Simply my single favorite video game of all time:)
That is actually so wonderful to hear. So glad you’re enjoying it:)
It has become one of the best games that I have ever played! It's one of my top three favorites.
1:05:18 I can tell she recognize that couch
The best way to describe procedural generation is using math and formulas to create random results. If you procedurally generate planets for example, you're taking a bunch of random results from within a set of predefined possibilities. Example A: Planet is blue, has a toxic atmosphere, and four specific major resource types. Example B: Plaent is orange, has a superhot atmosphere, and four different major resource types. On some level that's pretty much what's going on with the universe generation stuff in NMS, but it also applies to lots of other aspects of the game. Plants, animals, star systems, which intelligent species inhabit the system, the economy of the system, where buildings are, the terrain itself, etc.
No Man's Sky was particularly innovative in this space because it used procedural generation for TONS of gameplay elements. At launch most of it was kind of samey, but it is a much more varied universe to explore today. One of the most fun features at launch was the ability to discover, catalogue, and name plants, animals, planets, and star systems. It's a fun experience now. I enjoyed it at launch, but also understand the uproar back then. Even if you're not huge into games it's worth trying.

Computer science person here!
Procedural generation is basically random generation. Except not random.
Imagine a game which generates everything randomly. You go to a new place, meet a new creature. The computer goes "oh, I need to create this place and this creature for the player."
Except computers, for a reason too complicated to go here, can't really do true randomness. Especially when, for design's sake, some of it has to be predictable across players and game sessions.
So games use "pseudo-random number generators". You give them a starting number (called seed) and you get a random-looking but predictable sequence of numbers out of it. Same seed, same output. Then use that to create the "random" world.
Example: Minecraft worlds have seeds. You can give another person the seed value, and version number, and they can get the same version of Minecraft and generate exactly the same world. (Not compatible between versions because the details of world generation in Minecraft change frequently.)
28:45 it’s because they were all zeros, a circular number akin to the shape of cheerios
I don't know about other industries, but in gaming publishers are a plague on the industry lording outdated marketing strategies over lesser know developers and outright buying more well known ones and typically don't give a crap if their interference is what destroys a franchise, they'll still blame and scrap the dev studio.
I rage quit this game awhile back...for an insane reason. I had dug deep and pulled an all nighter to clear and level land to make a city. ... when I came back online, some of the land had respawned and overgrown all my work. But I'm feeling the itch...
53:56 I think we can all agree that was a chad move right there!
The "bowl of cheerios" joke was about the game recieving 0's across the review board, so not quite but a good 2ndary meaning
I know other people have said it but procedural generation is basically using an algorithm to create something. You set up and give it rules and what it can and can’t do, what can go where or how much of something to put there, and it calculates a random output based on those parameters. For example Minecraft’s world. They have a few rules I know off the top of my head. No desert and ice biome next to each other. Certain resources only spawn at certain heights. Villages can only appear every so many blocks, and only in a few biomes. Only so many mobs in a certain biome, etc. then you turn it on and viola a world is made
You sounded hype when you thought it was a science video, I would recommend Kurzgesagt, Technology Connections, Tom Scott or Zefrank1.
The guy that IH used for the erotic fanfiction is one of his friends, Pyrocynical, so you don't need to feel bad for him.
"Positive ending?" In Thai massage parlors I think they call that a "Happy Ending" 😂
Procedural generation is pretty much you program a set of rules and have the engine of the game generate things within those limits. In no man's sky the overal look of planets, the animal and plants on them, in fact most things work this way.
Also fun fact after the updates shown in this video the following major updates came out:
Bytebeat
Living Ship
Exo Mech
Crossplay
Desolation
Origins
Halloween Update
Next Generation (PS5, XSX)
Companions
Expeditions
Beachhead Expedition
Prisms
Frontiers
Cartographers Expedition
Emergence Expedition
Sentinel
Exobiology Expedition
Outlaws" & "The Blighted Expedition
Leviathan Expedition
Endurance
Polestar Expedition
So yeah you can say they got to work.
27:09 That's how reviewing works. You gotta PLAY the game if you wanna rate it.
28:28 Most of the scores were 0's. Cheerios are in the shape of O's.
I was a little skeptical seeing multiple videos reacting to the same video, but now that I've seen Lauren's reaction and can compare to Kit's, I definitely think it's a cool way to get multiple perspectives. Will have to re-watch a few lol
Scrolling through a bowl of Cheerios.
Lots of zeroes.
When I saw this video, Shawn has tweeted on his account with the following comment: DO NOT, WATCH, THE END, the last three minutes.
What everyone did? They watched the end first. xD
4:09 OH YEEEEEESSS!!! You’ve just confirmed your gamer AND Internet veteran card!!!!! Congrats! You’ve made it!
Having ownership of a word like "sky" is absolutely preposterous. I imagine having to tell someone, "yeah, the one looks rather gloomy today. Might wanna bring a raincoat."
Since this video came out there’s been 13 major updates
And since the video release we got Space pirates, better frighters, living ships and more.....it is sooo good
They won another award a year or two ago too
28:25 i think it is meant as in full of 0s
I remember watching that whole video and then watching the Fallout of 76 video lol I just had to compare the two but fallout was just a dumpster fire of problems
Yes especially since it was coming from Bethesda. For Hello Games, it’s more understandable
Fallout 76 had its own comeback though, it been steady improving since Wastelanders update. Not as good as No man's sky considered they're AAA studio but it is a decent game if you like Fallout 4 and bought it when 60% discounted.
@@usernamealreadytaken9330you can still find the game here for 2€. I heard its playable now. But playable does not equal good...
This Video Shows Every Reason Why I Never Ever Pre Order Games , Never Follow The Hype Train Of Any Games & Never Buy Games When They Are Released.
truly one of the best stories any video game has, a true redemption arc
16:30 Whenever a game or movie is not sent out to critics before release, it's a HUGE red flag. It usually means they are heavily expecting critics to trash the game/movie so they purposefully avoid sending copies in order for critics to not bother seeing/playing it or at least delay the review enough for people to buy copies on release. Granted, there have been exceptions (Doom 2016 was not sent to critics and it ended being one of the best games of the decade) but not sending review copies or insisting on a very specific review embargo is usually a bad sign.
and hello games just keeps adding more content to no mans sky, sometimes checking boxes that was still not checked in "promises" sometimes drawing new boxes and checking them at same time. now they don't give any info , then they just drops sudden huge content with nobody in comunity even knowing what it will be before it hits. so now comunity instead of steam-cooking old info into expectations now they can only be roughly guessing WHEN but not what to expect, just that it will be something good . and then some patches come for old and new stuff and then another one big surprise content hits.
btw , i had preordered it half year before launch. didn't get disapointed, played it till i got burned out in first month+, then after updetes come i play again, well mostly, but now it becomes hard to see and do everything when new content comes before another one hits.
Best Redemption Arc in Anime History
Jokes aside, even to this day, they still continue to release updates and new content for the game every 6-7 months.
Its quite huge.
There's like 14-16 new Updates they did since the release of this video.
NMS is now regarded by everyone as the Gift that keeps on Giving, to the point where Murray, each time he does one of his enigmatic Tweets (wich is usually a bunch of emojis) has people rilled up and excited (each time the emojis are clues to whats the next update)
And their efforts is something that people see and appreciate, specially in an era where people are treated like shit by gaming companies most of the times.
Also ALL of these updates are FREE.
By the end of Historian video i always have teary eyes, evne tho i've seen this vid dozens of times by a bunch of different reaction channels.
Its just a great story
Apropos of nothing: the green screen effect on the bottle at 12:58 is trippy as heck.
Wow… I just got an ad from hello games, promoting the game being ported to switch, as I’m watching your video right now. Crazy.
There have been EVEN MORE Updates for No Man's sky since the video's upload, ALL FOR FREE!!! It is a great game and i recommend people try it, especially when it goes on sale for half off (which it normally does at least once a year on Steam!)
Also most bugs have been fixed!
Honestly in my opinion I believe people put there expectations too high because it’s such a big game but even with all the hate on the game I love it and it’s really fun to play
I love no man's sky ♥
That "not safe for work erotic fanfiction" read at the end of the video was basically a shitpost. One big gag making fun of the game's original "Every X procedural" tagline that was touted during the initial reveal trailer, it's not serious.
Procedural Generation is both a great thing for gaming, and the crutch for the lazy developer. You set parameters, and the algorithm randomly generates the play-space within those parameters, or some aspect of the game, like wave and wind patterns on oceans(which has had an amazing effect when applying these things to natural phenomena).It is a great boon for rouge-likes, as you no longer need massive tilesets/prefabs for every inch of the play area, just for the larger things, like buildings. However, recent-ish problems have arisen with lots of would-be-successful devs who think its the easy way out of having to design a play space. It's a direct replacement for hand-crafting a map, that doesn't always mean its better, or viable.
The other face at the end was Pyrocynical he has 4.7m subs
I got an ad for the No Man's Sky Switch release on this video. Synergy.
In simple terms, procedural generation is when data or content is created using an algorithm, instead of manually. Minecraft is a prime example, since the worlds are proceduralmy generated every time you make a new world, this means the computer builds the world using a set of algorithms and assets provided by the developers, making every world random and different from each other.
28:25 because cereals are in a “o” shape or “0” shape, and almost all of the reviews were 0
I bought No Man's Sky a while back and never really played it much. I've seen this reacted to a whole bunch of times already, but this time I think I might actually play the game for real
Dew it! 😁
27:10
That's...the point of the 2-hour gameplay.
To see if there is something else to do in No Man Sky before the huge updates.
I played the game at launch and it was pretty, now though ? One of my favourite games probably ever.
It was kind of funny when you got confused about the bit where the cops thought they were stealing from the place. I don't know how to explain how overworked Americans are compared to the rest of the world.
I didn't join the hype train and bought the game a few months after release for 9.99. I thought it was okay for the price and then the patches started coming....... Best 9.99 I ever spent.
This event made me distance myself from the capital G Gamers. I mean, lawsuits, hacking, impersonation and death threats. Over a bad video game. I don't care how hyped you got, none of that is ok. Personally I think, the only time false marketing warrants a lawsuit, is when there's actual harm happening. Like those Male to Male cords.
Break down the words. Procedurally generated.
Generated means 'As it goes'' and generated means 'Made'
So basically it means made as it goes, as in the game is generated as you play it, giving you an unlimited amount of possible 'levels' made up on the spot. giving the player basically unlimited amounts of levels and possibilities each time, making the game fresh and new.
hacking someone is not is bit to far, it's a crime
If you liked this then please react to Shammy's *"An Actual Review of No Man's Sky"*
It's funny how americans always answer with "a lot of people" when they hear "who would work at 11pm on a sunday night?" :'D there's that messed up american work ethic
and here we are, with 2 new updates after that and a port to the nintendo switch as the last ''planned free'' content.
this may be the end for no man's sky updates, but they would end it on the highest note possible. That or maybe making a paid dlc after fricking 6 years XD
Replace "Procedural" with "Randomly" and you'll get the idea.
26:32 most dramatic drop in concurrent players *at that time* ....there’s been NUMEROUS over hyped soulles cash grabs by several games studios since then, but that was the first...
...and best case scenario since they did fix it... unlike all the other really terrible greedy studios... not that the devs wouldn’t want to, but their greedy soulles Corpo-Rat overlords won’t let them try and patch a sinking ship.
Just let it burn and sink. No sweat off the ceo or shareholders backs. They’ll make all that money back with micro transactions.
One of the best games I have ever played, 100 percent would recommend it
"Was like scrolling through a bowl of Cheerios" because everyone was voting 0 on it. So it was just a bunch of o's
well, no mans sky in some new content drops have more new content that some other games series in their sequals from AAA gaming giants
Procedurally Generated means the game isn't "random" but everything you see is based on a computer algorithm. So instead of having a saved game map your PC has to do math to figure out what it's supposed to show you.
If you want to learn about space and traveling through it. Look up Martincitopants's Kerbal space program videos. Not too technical and entertaining.
Classic
Crowbcat is a GREAT channel for reacts
Im so sad you didnt understand the cherrio joke cause they are shaped like zeroes and thats the only score the game recieved on metacritic.
The funny thing is they tricked him into read it.
She's freaking cute
As hard as they've worked on it, it's still fundamentally the same boring meaningless faffing with the worst inventory system I have ever seen and rock bottom management systems in basically every other aspect. They keep adding stuff, but they forgot to make it actually fun or with a point. It's like if Minecraft was severely more limited and didn't let you carry more than a small handful of items. Even trying to store items in a base is hair tearing. BUILDING a base is mind numbingly frustrating.
Only people that just want to waste time play it. That or people that just adore ANY base building mechanic, doesn't matter how poorly implemented it is.
Hi.
Helllllloooo
15:55 Bigotry and draconian measures are more profitable. Ask Disney.
19:00 Again, this disco jam is called "Okay" by 13ounce
22:30 To use an unmentionable metaphor, playing yourself is dramatically less complicated than connecting to a stadium full of people.
28:00 ZeroZeroZeroZeroZeroZero - Because Cheerios... are _circles._
32:55 That wasn't the problem. Sony gave them lots of opportunities. What Captain Sony was too polite to say was that Hello Games _overpromised._
36:00 Oh he's definitely a liar. He manufactured that first demo and pretended it was organically generated from the code. That'd be like a resteaurant serving takeout from another resteaurant.
35:30 In Europe office jobs are _still_ mostly 9 to 5 affairs.. Maybe longer hours but never on Sunday. Socialism! Church!
42:30 No, _that_ is Capitalism! Praise the 300 dollar insulin shot!
The liars analogy is a bit off. That would be more like if they stole from another game. It would be better to say that that if they were a restaurant and served old reheated food while saying it’s fresh.
@@DefinitivelyNotCthulhu That.
@@JoshSweetvale please dont reproduce
I was one of those people that pre-ordered the game on PS4. Within a week I had uninstalled the game, because every time I played it, it would always crash. Also, there was just a lack of things to do. It was more of a boring time-sink than a $60 AAA title. Honestly, if they had released it at $15-25 it would have been alright.
Lauren has pretty eyes 🙃
BTW the game still years later has not delivered most of the stuff it promised, is still an utter buggy and poorly optimized mess and the devs keep hyping new stuff they won't deliver just to keep people in the game. The game is essentially a worse minecraft modded with teh space stuff
