i've been looking for it

one point you forgot to mention and possibly my favorite is how rabid and defensive the fanbase is



mite b a troll but still hilarious

Can I be FUCKING real for a second?

This community is fucking atrocious right now. You're all acting like a bunch of whiny, entitled little babies.

A tiny team of people made an entire universe for you to explore. They made it for YOU, and they're going to wake up tomorrow morning and see that instead of enjoying it, this community of "fans" picked out the 3 or 4 things that weren't perfect and are using that to fucking riot.

Guess what? The game was never going to be perfect. It was never going to live up to your hype. It was never going to be everything you'd ever want in a game.

What it WAS going to be was an impossibly big universe filled with mysteries and weird shit. I just played it for 2 hours and it was exactly that. What more do you want?

Is it buggy? Sure. Is it repetitive? Maybe. Is the inventory system imperfect and the multiplayer feature questionable and the structure unclear? Sure, fine.

But holy shit what do these people OWE YOU?

How fucking entitled do you have to be to explore an infinite universe in a spaceship and then say "yeah but..."

We should all be fucking weeping in our chairs right now at the sheer size and scale of the achievement. We should be showering the people behind this thing with the praise they deserve for pulling off one of the most inspiring games in recent memory.

Hello Games doesn't owe you the world. Yet they gave you 18 QUINTILLION of them.

If you have the fucking audacity to complain about it then you don't deserve it and you were never fans in the first place.


they simply can't admit that they're the easiest targets for these sorts of scams

and all of the melodrama and self-aggrandizement that goes into full time defense of this game





it's no wonder the marketing appealed to reddit in particular

they always go back to the size argument

but you don't understand thyme, 18 QUINTILLION planets

who cares if between those 18 quintillion there's not even a single earth's worth of geological or biological diversity

you need to have an open mind to truly appreciate this universe on a deep level

don't let's

Yeah, hearing the size coupled with procedurally generated didn't give me high hopes for game or diversity of content.

i find it hilarious people feel so ripped off by this game when it was clear it was an early access survival game years ago, but i can at least understand that

the defenders are fucking hilarious tho, that one reddit post, top keks

TooB

Almost any defender of almost any game is hilarious, because they never actually defend the game.

They just mention a flaw, say that its not so bad, then insult the people who naysay.
That reddit post is the perfect example

It's not enough to attempt to kill the series by ignoring it, but now they want us to do it ourselves in game.
