Look, everything he said would be in the game he definitely thought was going to be in the game probably would have been if Sony didn't set their deadline so short. Sean was being honest and did want to include it in the game at release but Sony threw them under the bus by setting their deadline so short and preventing them from accomplishing them from including what they said they were going to include in the game in the first place.

dude, you were so stuck up on "lie, lie, lie!" even when they explained he didn't actually lie. He said things were in the game because either they were *at the time* or they were *actually planned to be in*. But he's not a PR guy. He doesn't understand that if you remove or cut something you had promised before (regardless of reason), then everyone will be outraged. That's not a lie.

I doubt they ever release it. That will take the only defense the fanatics have for it - it not being finished that's why it's not perfect yet. Star Citizen is Eve Online + No Man's Sky + Elite Dangerous + something like Mass Effect and I highly doubt it can ever be achieved with how many features and desires the devs and players have for it. I think the devs were always afraid to release it because of the hype and fear that disappointed players will not buy ships. If they released it and it ended up being a worse Eve Online but with planet interaction, I doubt players would have stayed for long. Eve barely retains new players and lives because of its long history and player-shaped space during its 18 years. Star Citizen lacks all that and will require ton of commitment from players - that is, if it was ever planned to be released. It could have been a scam from the start.

Ok. Chicago Reacts... there is seriously something wrong with you. When I first saw this video by myself, it was immediately obvious that Sean was NOT a liar (at least not beyond what is expected of normal people). YOU...YOU kept insisting Sean was a liar. Multiple multiple times it was explained in explicit detail how the truth of "No Man's Sky" was far more complicated than some random developer lying for a quick buck. Internet Historian told you outright that at the time, Hello Games thought they could pull everything off, but the Sony deal, plus lack of time, plus interview talk, plus realities of journalism, plus $60 price tag, PLUS the fact that Sean was literally forbidden from telling the truth (reeling back expectations) meant he was a victim of circumstance. Throughout this reaction you weren't listening to a thing being said. What was actually covered in the first half was the insane hype followed by painful reality, expectations followed by result; but you interpreted it all as lying initially and you never stopped to confirm and you never allowed yourself the time to gather more information. You were so busy being angry that you lost multiple opportunities to learn anything new. Hell! You were so hellbent on being angry that you (in a moment of arrogance) declared how rubbish it was that the video was called "The Engoodening of No Man's Sky." You hadn't finished watching the video and yet you ran your mouth as if you knew any better. Ate your words pretty hard didn't ya? I am deathly serious when I say this: Chicago Reacts...you are mentally ill. I am not trying to be a dick. I have extensive experience with human psychology and I'm telling you the hard truth. You get angry way too easy. You don't focus or listen to anything, especially when you get angry or fearful. You lack self-control, you lack focus, you lack self-awareness, you virtue signal like crazy, and you talk as if you're a God damned superhero of moral virtue who has more answers than he really does. If someone wanted to, they could manipulate you like a puppet on strings, and you'd be none the wiser. I say all this in the hopes that you see this and seriously confront whatever hidden pain has you knotted up so much. You talk as if you're a good man but you're not; no one is; and that's the whole point. You are selling yourself short, and you don't even realize it. In fairness though, watching you turn gleeful and exuberant after hearing about the Hello Games redemption arc was pretty awesome and heart-warming...

The thing was he didn't exactly lie, I think you were speaking over this part so you didn't hear, but what happened was the stuff he was saying in the interviews was stuff Sean thought they would have when they game released, 2 years later. But they just needed more time than that, they couldn't fit all the promised features in that amount of time. And it shows, because now, the game has arguably even surpassed the original promised game. They just needed more time. But as Internet Historian said, they couldn't delay the game by that much since they were under Sony's funding now.

It's always nice to have a happy ending for a change

One thing everyone forgets is the Flood that destroyed the office of the Devs, after launch it was largely forgotten by everyone, but I think there's a very real chance some builds of the game were lost. or at least some PC's with build code were lost.

I have every right to defend something/someone who doesn't deserve to be ridiculed. Not to mention, you're passionately hating a company that doesn't know you exist. So you're calling me out for defending a company that doesn't know I exist, while also hating on a company that doesn't know you exist either? That's called double standards. "what's more pitiful than that?" I'll tell you what's more pitiful; blindly hating a company with very little facts or reasonable arguments to back it up, and then getting defensive because you were called out for it and trying to turn the tables on me for calling you out. I'm gunna do us both a favor and exit myself from this discussion now, you clearly are the kind of dude to blindly hate on whatever and then when someone calls you out then you throw personal attacks and try to get under their skin because you have nothing better to do. What a fragile ego you have to act like such an immature 16 year old when someone calls you out for being a dick. Sounds like someone needs to work out some personal issues.

My favourite part is you shaking your head saying “idiot” when it’s clear it’s a moment you have no idea what the narrator is talking about 😂

He didn’t realize he was lying Jesus just listen to the video and you would have caught that

Oh yeah the multiplayer comment, he must have not realized they didn't add it in. Unless you think the way he worded it was completely copacetic, of course he lied but he made up for it.

The thing is...Sean Murray didn't intend to lie. He just made promises of features that he very much intended to add to the game by release, but he just didn't have the time in the end. Eventually the features were added. It wasn't a malicious kind of lie, it was just biting more than he could chew.

* dusts off 2016 meme * No man's sky? More like No man buy! Thank you.

IH's video is what made me buy No Man's Sky after only being vaguely aware of it. Played it and Platinumed it since then, I love it, and the game only continues to get updated and improved.

I actually think this is a really profound lesson for life. When you make a mistake - be it being found out in a lie or otherwise being found out doing something wrong - there's a right way and a wrong way to proceed. The instinctive reaction is try and cover it up or to get defensive. But those responses almost always make things worse. Instead, if you own up to your mistake and make a genuine effort to fix it as well as taking steps to ensure it won't be repeated, well people really appreciate it.

The pay of of the turn around of attitude is amazing and the fanfic reaction at the end is punishment for the liar comment

Was actually excited to see you react to this, but this has been by far the worst reaction video i've seen of you to date. You're so hung up on believing he's a liar you're not even paying attention to the video when presented with the facts.

"he lied" so did you skip over the fact that he didnt lie?

That sort of leak in the video game industry is not super uncommon.

I like the "oof that's a lot of call of duties!"

He didn't lie, he just didn't know (he should have) that people would take the development goals at face value and interpret them as features. He says things like "currently you can", he's a developer and development goals are always set higher than the final what product delivers on. He shouldn't have been speaking about them as if they were features, but it wasn't malicious and thus wasn't lying.

He lied about the multiplayer though. That was verifiably false and verified as such.

I guess I can see how someone who was disappointed by a game and it's developer and then catching him in some lies make that person believe the developer lies as soon as he opens the mouth. Sean learned his lesson though. Hope he can find redemption with you, too.

What i hate the most is the fact that a community pushes the devs to release the game by sending death threats to the dev team and their families, the devs then release it due to pressure and then get outraged by an unfinished game

This is the classic tragedy of Icarus. Poor Sean got WAY too close to the sun and got roasted. Edit: Of course, Icarus didn't get back up after his fall. These guys actually did the smartest business thing that I've ever seen. Got back up and fixed their shit! I'm kind of proud of them for that.

This is the Best Redemption Arc in Anime history.

You have to respect the team for not taking the money and running. They fixed their failure and redeemed themselves. Redemption arcs are satisfying

Not gonna lie I had the same reaction in the first half when I first watched this, since I had no idea the latter half happened.

I'm so pleased you recognized the fake signer. Weirdest effing story of the past decade.

your reaction to the fan fiction without anyone pausing/stopping it for you 😭 i cant-

As I came here after watching IH video, I was holding myself for not start swearing as he start bad mouthing Sean as liar and all, since I know you'll be surprised on the second half. Seriously, Sean is my most respected game developer / leader as far as his dedication to the game. And I hope Projekt Red also can redeem themself too, one of the last good developers

geez man, ever heard of reserving judgement? all video long ya basically chanted "liar liar liar" how about a little patience to see what info the video gives you?

All the complaining at the start was so freaking worth it especially after he realized that he was going to get jebaited with the dev team proving themselves and him listening to erotica was so funny. Holy shit it was hard to listen to him repeating the stuff about lying and refusing to suspend his disbelief and listen to the video.

This is the perfect example that most of the time is not the developers fault but a matter of time they have

Yeah exactly. A lot of people ignore this factor. Sean and the team did not set their release date, it was Sony, because they have all the control. The truth is Sean wasn't lying, everything he said would be in the game most likely would have been if Sony didn't set their deadline so short. It's sad.

Thus is one the best and most legitimate corporate redemption stories

you were a trooper at the end, you deserve a like sub and comment

I'm glad you guys did more internet historian videos, I have to say that I find your reactions and commentary the best in chicago react, I can sense that you actually try to understand and comment on the stuff that is happening in the video, keep the good work.

1:04 the entire plot of Gurren Lagann

The ultimate redemption story.

I love when people just watch a video someone else put their hard work into for a video.

IH videos are the only ones I don't skip through the ads lol and legitimately, this video is a 'feel-good' hit. It's constructed like a movie to show the rise, fall, and redemption of Hello Games, and you honestly get a great feeling by the end. I did, at least. I didn't play at launch, I jumped in just before Atlas Rises, and then compared to how the game is now (haven't played since the Expeditions update) it's been drastically overhauled and refined into a much better, albeit entirely different game from when I started.

Dude keeps talking over every time it’s explaining times when Sean DIDN’T lie 😂

OH MY FUCKING GOD! it's so frustrating every time you keep calling him a liar nonstop, and even more, talk over his interview when he said it's a nightmare to speak publicly at E3

I feel Star Citizen is in a complicated state. Some hate it deeply some love it religiously. I do like the game for the way it looks and feels and how far it came but still can see many problems. There are many Bugs, Servers are small and missions (+ the reputation system) need to be improved to make the gameplay loops motivating in the long term perspective. But for a space simulator it is entertaining, for me and my friends at least. It can definitely be frustrating at times and it is far from a persistently pleasant experience. But it is in alpha still and it has its moments (sometimes it is just breathtakingly beautiful for example). We play the game every time a new update arrives to play around with. It just seems like the scope of this game is simply gigantic and that takes a long time taking small steps. My scepsis will be fully gone if the new persistent Server Cashing (ICash for those interested) comes this or next year. That would be something more of a more substantial step to a playable game than just new missions or a new ship. I have also played in the first Server wide collaborative event this year and I think I got small glimpse of the potential that the game has. Time will tell if the game will release to the promised extend. I feel, for what fun I got, my money was well spent. That’s where I think Star Citizen is, cheers

There are quite a number of deep space exploration. Star citizen is definitely one of them but another popular one is Eve online. They are great games but what No Mans Sky does better than those titles is accessibility. Getting started in Eve online is a major challenge. It takes dozens even hundreds of hours for the game to truly open up and show its brilliance. A strong loyal fanbase but it can be very intimidating to new players. No Mans Sky is very beginner friendly and has enough complexity and nuance for the hardcore fans. Great reaction to an unbelievable story of redemption

I love your reactions, keep going!

Reminds me of a quote. "what is better? To be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" -paarthurnax

This is the best redemption arc in history

Fun fact: "Lying" is how all video game PR is done, you tell the audience what will be in the game, despite the fact that the game doesn't even exist yet and is still in prototyping stages, so unless you have a studio that's able to tell whether or not something is possible within 2 years of development, which is impossible for an indie studio to do, then you're kind of just screwed because you have to say what you want to put in the game and just gamble on whether or not it's actually possible and when you have AAA investors, then even by the time you find out that it's impossible, you're not allowed to tell anyone. This means that, in actuality, Sean wasn't lying on purpose, he was just putting forth all of the plans without being able to tell if they were too ambitious or not.

It's funny, the game legitimately looks like that initial VGX trailer now. Low flying on planets, ringed planets, space battles... Like, they 100% brought the game back and made it even better than the initial reveal. The game is great now. And mind you, they STILL haven't charged any money outside of the initial game purchase. And even then, its also on Game Pass, so a lot of people haven't even needed to buy it.

Sean is like a M man who just got a hard cbt and when you thought that it's all end, somehow, he still rises up. Ngl, it takes some balls of steel to rise up as good as Sean did.

The irony here is people called him a liar but it was more what he could do and what he thought he can do. Resources and time are still on factor in game development you can’t blame it on someone who just says yes to everything. Just blame the people who say no like Bethesda and refunds.

It almost feels like he's ignoring most of the second half. It's just him repeating "He's a lying liar who lied and lies and lies like a lying liar" over and over again, like he's trying to keep himself from feeling any kind of pity or any positive emotions toward the guy. I don't know if he missed the title of the video, or if IH is just *too* convincing, or what.

It's mind blowing how the team eventually made good on almost all of their promises, the industry standard is for the publisher to break up the team and drop the game if even a single title is below 95% expected sales.

Sean is a sweetheart and fuck anyone who says otherwise, he was fucked over by Sony's predatory practices and he still worked for 4 years to finish the game he promised.

I love how this video flips him like a patty at the very point where Sean and his team picking themselves up to finish the game.

this is actually gold

The good thing about being an indie studio. Had they worked for EA, EA would have just said "eff it" closed the studio and run off with the money. The most wholesome story in videogame history :)

You had to watch the full ending as recompence for calling Sean a liar all through the video

Every. [REDACTED]. Procedural.

KZread recommended your fallout 76 video. After I finished it, I came looking for this hopefully, after your remark in the previous video. :)

"You proved your point!" lol

When you were telling him to shut up I was screaming at you to shut up. This whole reaction was just insanely hard to watch. The ending that people say is just so great where you finally realize you're wrong wasn't satisfying at all. I was frustrated listening to you the whole time. I had to stop watching and come back to it.

Same. I disliked instantly when he started calling him a liar with no reason or logic to back it up.

In Sean's defense, a lot of the promises made were initiated by the interviewers who were too hyped for the game and Sean couldnt really just flat out say No to them since they were already contracted by Sony which means he couldnt talk his game down. Interviewer: I am so excited by this game. Will it allow me to become the god emperor of the universe, spawning trillions of overly buff soldiers in my visage who will willingly throw anyone named John into the lava pits? Sean: (thats not really something in our planned development roadmap but I cant say no to it because it would make sony look bad) Sean: Y-y-yes?

My experience playing this game lasted 14 hours. 12 of which were in the second system because the game bugged out and the warp cell i crafted didn't complete the quest which gives you the crafting recipe for the warp cells (fuel needed to FTL jump between systems so you don't take literal years flying). I spent the next 12 hours looping around planets in that system looking for the elusive location that would sell/give me the warp cell recipe. Millions and millions of credits, and like 20 inventory expansions later I found the warp cell recipe, made one, warped to a new system and then quit the game and went and played Astroneer instead. The planets were pretty, but 2 of the 5 in that system were literally indentical. I've come back from time to time, but the performance still isn't where I'd like it to be.
