I'm surprised this is happening for No Man's Sky when it didn't happen for Gearbox and Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Didn't Gearbox got sued for A:CM?
Edit: Yep

..was the game seriously that bad?
I dont agree with the witch hunt
I think the loss of players and rejection in the market with high return rates and harsh criticism was enough
Is it really wise to pile onto an indie studio and make an example out of them?

Really? Shit, someone tell them about Bioshock Infinite, Watch Dogs, or everything Bethesda touches.
Given a free pass as they turned out to be very enjoyable anyways.
The bigger issues are the interviews that Murray gave anyway
What ads are they currently running that are misleading? I thought all the deception was in the pre-release interviews. Is there anything circulating out there right now that's deceptive.

LOL. There's no comparison in terms of levels of lies and overall bullshit. NMS is in a league of its own
In my opinion...I dont agree with the witch hunt

Starting to seem like a bit of a "witch-hunt". Yes then game swung for the fences and the bat flew out and hit a congressman but still...

Companies need checks and balances too, beside what the free market decides. And don't forget the free market already made Hello Games multi-millionaires for this product.I dont agree with the witch hunt

We have this toxic mix of unrealistic expectations from the customer base and overly ambitious posturing from developers
Should we really encourage lack of ambition even if they fail?
I hate this idea that failure is not on option. What should be a learning experience for everyone involved is devolving into witch hunts and bullying
Didnt you guys get refunds? Isnt the market repercussions and criticism an acceptable consequences?
Whats with this toxic revenge porn behaviour

It's always odd to see consumers advocating lower standards of integrity from organizations out for your money. Greed is the underpinning of most modern economies, and greed corrupts when left unchecked.

This game is £49 in Game.
is anything NOT that price in Game?
Ha.
There will be people in here referring to Sean Murray as a scumbag shortly.
All over a video game *shrug*
Don't buy the game?
Be an informed consumer?
...ah, never mind.
Buy first and expect a refund is the new way I guess.
LOL. There's no comparison in terms of levels of lies and overall bullshit. NMS is in a league of its own
It has nothing to do with how bad or how good it is, it's about how they continously lied.
And he dared to claim that everything people expected due to his terrible PR was down to "What you imagined this game as"To take the opposite position though
There was a lot Murray could have done to get ahead of this
Even if it mean losing sales out the gate

About time
Today I learned that there is even a defense force for false advertising. Great stuff. Let's protect those poor companies. Bad bad consumers.

Yup.
For gamers that didn't follow the development of the game closely, the trailers and interviews are deceiving.
But some gamers "in the know" are at fault too, how gullible can they be? They're supposed to know how the industry works but they still want to believe in unrealistic and dream projects and can't see the false promises. Show them something that looks EPIC (TM) and all reason goes out the window.
Really? Shit, someone tell them about Bioshock Infinite, Watch Dogs, or everything Bethesda touches.
Lol. Real world problems. People complaining about a product that doesn't meet their expectations and "promises"... it's like everyday life...
And for worse, not aiming at a big company, but to someone that at least tryied to give some fresh experience out there.
That is real sad. You deserve CoD and AC games every year.
