NMS leaker has finished the game: here's his feedback

[the-pi-guy]

I'm really really confused about the shape of the galaxies. It seems that they are linear? Like you start on one end of a tube and travel to the other end. Huh? Pretty sure the leaker is describing it poorly.

That's... kind of lame.  Although that doesn't make sense, but then again a lot of this doesn't.  

Oh gosh, even the mods are trying to deny it: We have collected some evidence that the leaked copy may be a stolen demo or non-final developer copy. : NoMansSkyTheGame
This is only going to end in a train wreck for fudge sake. Accept it has bugs, hope for a patch, and move on. (when it turns out those mods are correct, I'll deny making this post)

Sean Murray has asked people to not view the leaks, hinting towards him saying the copy being leaked is not final

Do they mean this?

We’ve spent years filling No Man’s Sky with surprises. You've spent years waiting.  Please don't spoil it for yourself :(

Rofl. "Don't spoil the game" definitely means " it's not the final version"

Game suspiciously removed from package
Inner booklet same as Uncharted 4 inner booklet with old release date
Finger prints on disc suggest altered disk

Rofl.  Altered disk.  

It's so easy to alter a disk, even though this is my first time of ever hearing about it.  And clearly NMS is the game to alter.  

How is he receiving messages from other players on psn playing an unreleased game, which probably wouldn't work as there would probably be a block on playing it.

I'm just saying there's probably a decent chance that someone probably did probably something.  


Regardless of the outcome, this is pretty hilarious.

It's blowing my mind how delusional people are getting over a game they've never played.  Wowza.

Ahahahaha, god I gotta watch that show again.

They seem to be going through that thread and debunking some of it.

But hey we're lucky, even if NMS fails to deliver there are a couple other indie games coming to PS4 these next couple weeks that look like they might actually deliver.
Abzu tomorrow, really interested reviews for that, Hyper Light Drifter (is that already out on PS4?), and Bound, though that isn't exactly an indie title. Non of these do anything even similar to NMS, but hey they all look pretty great imo.

abzu looks fudgy amazing. i am not into these types of games, but Abzu just looks really special.

Also wtf is going on, how can people be so delusional. they are in for a shock once they finally play the game. im certain there is going to be a day one patch, as there always is these days.

I will say that the terrain and overall vibe of the planets has been surprisingly refreshing. I never really have moments where I land on a planet and say, "Oh no, not this one again." They have a lot of variables in the procedural - even the most mundane things like coloring can mean a world of difference

Oh and Inside trophies popped up already as well, so that one might not be too far off either. One site is even saying Inside will come to PS4 in August as well.

Reddit detectives lol... That gif sums it up. I remember when a post on reddit or something accused Patrick Kane of sexually assaulting them in an LA bar bathroom. Someone quickly pointed out that the flight logs shows the Blackhawks team jet took off two hours after the game played in LA and he was spotted with the team in Chicago the next day. Reddit detectives quickly came up with "evidence"  which showed that the story was true... The evidence consisted of "well maybe he asked to stay back to meet with some friends and took a later plane" "maybe it was the day before the game and they mixed up the dates (the story specifically says they played at the staples center and went to a bar close by because they knew players go there after games)"

Thank god I have kept my hype in check about this game.  Game looks awesome to me, but still know that it may not be exactly like i'm hoping.  Thankfully I got it through amazon and got $10 off for being a prime member and using a free $10 I got for doing a 3 month trial of amazon's audible.  And I'm sending in some games to amazon that will pay it off. So I'm not that worried if it's not as good as I hope.

Color is actually a big thing. Just by adjusting color values on a picture you can make it feel like many different locations.

Also the guy only landed on ~50 planets. If he was having duplicate planets with just that small of sample size, it would have been way worse than I ever talked about.

New impressions from the same leaker: daymeeuhn comments on The second coming of the Spoilers/Leaks Megathread.

Lots of screenshots too.
