No the message is play it safe dont try and be different. At no point during the hype building of NMS was I under the impression it would be anything other than what i ended it up being. Which is what is confusing me about the hate the game got. An indie dev can only ever do so much.

And yet, indie devs will still be pretty much the only ones taking risks and not playing it safe. And unlike Hello Games, most of these indie devs can do so, and promote their games honestly. And yeah, hindsight is always 20/20. It's real easy to sit now and say you always knew Murray was exaggerating the games features, lying about them, "just so gosh darn passionate!", whatever you wanna call it. Either way, it doesn't change what happened.

Everybody reacts differently to promotional content.

Im not saying i knew he was exagerrating - I'm saying i dont think he exagerated and at no point did i feel mislead. Just because the "majority" of the gaming community has jumped on this bandwagon does not mean i need to as well.
