Hello Games Thought No Man’s Sky Would Be a ‘Niche Game’
During an interview with GamesIndustry.biz, head of Hello Games, Sean Murray discussed the launch of the space exploration game, No Man?s Sky and what it was like to turn things around after the game?s initial reaction. If you?re unfamiliar, No Man?s Sky was a victim of tremendous hype, misleading marketing, and an inexperienced developer when it came to discussing the game prior launch. As you might know, the game was controversial upon release, disappointing many fans, due to the expectations set by the marketing. But, nearly three years later, Hello Games redeemed itself, going above and beyond with improvements, expansions, fixes, and more.
After No Man?s Sky released, the team was hit hard with negative criticisms. Because of this, the developers at Hello Games went radio silent for a long time, quietly working on everything that was initially promised that didn?t make it in the day-one version.
