At 28% positive reviews on Steam now and many of the positive ones are "refund button works great" and stuff like that...

It seems to be almost unplayable for most.

But hey, 200k concurrent players and it sold probably already well above 1m units on Steam. Even with many refunds Hello Games will be a rich company now. Why releasing an optimised game then, right?

But they're so passionate and put so much love into their game! Have you seen Sean's puppy dog eyes? Surely they deserve their newfound riches

It couldn't possibly be that a small dev team that only had experience making four "Joe Danger" sidescrolling games perhaps bit off a tad more than they could chew in attempting to create a realistically sized, actual universe that's somehow still interesting enough to warrant exploring?

Now that I say it out loud it does sound pretty darn silly. lol

My question is why this obsession with scale? People understand they'll die sometime in the coming decades, right? Every person on earth could spend their lives playing this game and we'd only visit a tiny portion of it.
