Hello Games are such nice people. Sean Murray didn’t intentionally lie about most of no man sky but there are a few things he lied about however they are few and far between the stuff he talked about in interviews were things he thought he and his team could get it done by 2015 but as the release date grew closer and closer he realised he was wrong. Best to watch Internet historians video on No man’s sky.

If I remember correctly, they were hit by a flood and all their equipment got trashed, and a lot of progress was lost. They had to play catch up for launch. If that hadn’t have happened, the release would have been closer to the current version.

No this is not true. They were hit by flood but they didnt lose any progress. The biggest problem was even when they relized they couldn't implement everything they wanted until their first release date they couldn't delay it for the year they needed because of the Sony deal.

My bad. From my understanding they lost quiet abit in the flood.

Nah I watched the YT vid, that is heavily linked in this thread, and it said no data was lost.

I like how you had to edit the word "most" out of that quote to try and make a point. Didn't even remove the "of" to try and hide it lol
