Multi No Man's Sky' can be Refunded

[Demon_Skeith]

It seems No Man's Sky promised a lot and delivered little in a form of a space version of Minecraft. One would think all buyers would be screwed, however Steam, PSN and Amazon are offering refunds on your copy of the game, no matter how long you've played it.

To get a refund, just contact whichever provider’s customer support you bought the game from and how you truly felt about the game. These companies were trying to do this as quietly as possible and now that everyone and their mother is going to ask for a refund, they might stop giving them out.

Good for the suppliers to be doing this, they should do this more often with broken games.

Is it that broken?

Not as broken as other games on the market which I think deserved this treatment more. From what I've seen this is more about missing features that was promised.

Pretty much that is the gist I get.

Apparently, during development the game didn't show much gameplay material so a lot of people relied on the interviews of the developers for information on what to expect for the game. They did preorders, they played several hours hoping to find things like multiplayer and it just wasn't there.

So now you have one side saying that you're entitled if you refund it for not filling your expectation, as the game itself it's not broken nor awful, and people should just stop preordering; while the other group claims it has nothing to do with expectations but that the game is not what they were told it'd be.

Just to be clear, I am just relaying what I've read around in other forums. I have not even tried the game. I just know everybody was praising it before it came out and now it seems as if now it is heavily disliked.

Well, I'm glad that Steam is fair about this... Gabe really cares about gamers...

The console version has a bug that ruins your save file: http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertc...ctively-devouring-my-save-files/#289790855175

There wasn't much to praise really, gamers tend to jump the gun.
