    He got burned so hard with how he hyped No Mans Sky that I think he is changing his tone with their new game.

    The devs earned my respect back with all the free updates to NMS, so I will be keeping an eye on this one, and I respect him for toning back the hype.

      100%, he’s doing the right thing. It will be out when it’s out.

      I’m sick of hype trains anyways.

        I would be totally fine if they dropped a trailer, Nintendo-style, that ended with “Oh by the way, it’ll be out in a week.”

        Take your time, Hello Games. Get it right!

      I’ve gotten so much out of NMS by now that I would prepay for Light No Fire and not care of it wasn’t playable for 5 years.

      But, I don’t blame them for being cautious and it cements my “loyalty“.

      Contrast with Subnautica which I might have said the same about until they sold out to Krafton and the ensuing drama.

      At the same time i still would like to see some gameplay. The game was revealed in two years ago and we still don’t know how it plays

        Considering the number of NMS updates that are just back-ported features that were created for Light No Fire, I suspect the game loop will be pretty much the same as what we already have in NMS
