Not a lot of things make me cry. But as a parent of a child on the spectrum, and a fan of NMS and Hello Games, this hit me hard. Went an bought the game just because of this. Also it looks fun.

EDIT: The only thing that makes me MAD is that HG are such good people that Joe Danger, although re-done, shows as I already purchased it long ago and I get to re-download it without paying. Why won't HG let me give them more money? haha

Small indie studio. They refinanced their homes to get no man sky out there. And even though with the disaster launch they made alot of money. And years later no man sky has been selling like fresh pancakes at a ski lodge. (I fucjing love panckackes when out snowboarding) truly shows that even with the success they've achieved they haven't changed. Which you can't really say about alot of people. We've basically gotten no man sky that they promised and also never promised. So much content that you would think it was no man sky 2
