Hell id still buy the game if it was 30 hours, just because these types of games on console don't come around very often and I'm a huge sci-fi buff and I've wanted a game like this for a long time.

Even if it's shallow (which is seems like it is per what we've heard so far), hopefully the devs build off of this and make a better sequel.

This would be an extremely ambitious project for a huge studio, much less an indie.

If it goes on sale this winter I may pick it up. Seems like a good $30 or $40 game.

It just seems odd that the devs basically haven't done anything in response to the leaks.


Isn't the dev team like a few people? They don't have deep pockets to go chasing after people.

They actually said it would take 5 billion years to explore all of the planets. So 30 hours to reach the center of the universe seems a tad short.

Yes, that is true. This game though has Sony behind it. I would have thought Sony's PR team was helping arrange for marketing matters like responding to leaks.

Ever since the delay, Sony seems to be not promoting this game as much as I thought they would. This ps store hardly has any advertising for the game except for an extremely small window you can click on to pre order

Yeah everything to me points to a game that everyone involved knew was/is going to disappoint.

That guy used an exploit in a resource and exploited the game's economy to upgrade his ship to max way before you were supposed to.

Things like this happen. In Fallout 4 you could get infinite bottlecaps while buying from a vendor with an exploit when it first came out. People did the same thing with an AAA title. It will be patched.

Hey man, I already said I would buy it regardless. Hell I dont have a PS4 right now and I'm thinking about trading in my Xbox one for this game and other PS exclusives, which greatly outweigh Xbox exclusives at the moment.

This is the type of game where you spend hundreds of hours just tooling around and doing random shite, which is the type of game I love after a long day at work.

I know I'm coming off white knighting for this game but I just don't think the narrative should have been set from some a-hole who spent an extra $1200+ to play a game and nitpick it 9 days before it comes out.

Anyone who decides to spend $1300 on a playstation game needs to be evaluated and maybe isn't the best source to gauge the game from is all I'm saying. It screams attention whore.

A decent amount of people were streaming it about 30 minutes ago on twitch and apparently they all got banned because the embargo has not been lifted yet. Sean also said they were going to reset the servers day one.

Apparently the day 1 update is going to make the game different from what we've seen so far. Hype

I've been going back and forth on this one. I'm going to hold right now and go with Deus Ex.

I'd think less of you if you didn't go with Deus Ex

Oh, I wouldn't choose it over Deus Ex. I was thinking about getting both, but I'm more of a one game at a time player.
