No Man's Sky was not developed by 500 people, in 8 years, with more than 200M of budget. Don't compare apples and oranges.

Even GoW4 and TLOU2 are less expensive, faster and surely with smaller team than that. But the difference is, they have results to show, not just promises. 

And those games didn't ask for thousands of dollars to fans in exchange for those promises. "Please buy this pretty picture of our new ship, only 3000 dollars, otherwise the game won't be complete, poor us :( We're counting on you!".

But hey, if the creator of the game can buy a new house costing several million dollars and give a cosy and well paid job to all his friends and family, that's proof that the project is in the right hands. 

So the has been no results on SC?.... wow i guess them what i been playing for the last while for my 10 euro investment has been nothing...

And, what are you playing? 

One of the biggest game ever, with huge budget, teams and development time? 

Or just another normal indie like game, closer to Elite Dangerous or other games like that? 

"I've playing something". Just "something" is nothing if it cost 200M dollars, 8 years and 500 people to do it. With this, it should already be one of the most amazing and most polished games ever. Not just a partial alpha version.

A game like The Witcher 3 cost less than 50M dollars, on 3 and a half year, with less than 250 employees. SC numbers are on a completely different level, and so far the result seem to be on another level too, but not in the same way...
