The dude for real seems down to earth, humble af, and he shows that he has the passion to produce something great. This man is straight up inspirational and for real I'm hyped as hell to play the game, but even more so I'm hyped to see Sean and his team be successful. If anybody from Sean's team read this comment or if he reads it himself I just wanna say that imma be throwing money at y'all like its nobody's business and support your already great work. Good luck to y'all man
For anyone wondering what this game is like... You can: collect resources (no crafting has been mentioned) use them to purchase new suits and ships (no upgrading, go to space ports) buy things from the market (and deal with various economies) explore hire A.I. mercenaries become a merchant fight pirates (among many other foes) become a pirate interact and deal with the flora, fauna, atmospheres,etc. of each planet (which will only get weirder the closer you get to the center of the universe) Use your multitool (tool that does multiple, various things depending on the attachments you put on it, like shooting, collecting resources,etc. It was shown in the first trailer as a rectangular gun-thingy) And more (that we don't know of)! You are also encouraged to to to the Center of the Universe. It's basically a somewhat streamlined space sim with various exciting new elements to it that will make it endlessly fun.
Yeah I would imaging there is crafting of some sort be it via vendors needing resources to create the item or being able to use a "work bench" in your ship. But when he said "next Minecraft" I thought to myself, we might be looking at the next billionaire Notch like developer. I would like a release date for this game. Either that or a Entwined type release. Like, Here is the game, its available now for download .
Beats, Games, Life -ZimM804 Nope, you just collect resources and use them like money. Also, there aren't any NPC vendors. Ships, enemies, creatures, etc. are all there, but you don't see actual people NPCs. You access the market via space stations, by the way. I imagine you go there and access the menu, and what's in the market there depends on the place and economy. Don't know for sure if that's what they'll do. Just the part about markets, economies, and space stations.
Crafting have actually been mentioned, but still they have no obvious recipes and how the crafting will be done. All recipies will all be unknown, until No Man's Sky gets a wiki-page... Suits are upgradable (oxygen/laser/collecting/armor/stealth/heat protection, etc, etc...), different classes of ships are purchasable at space ports and this ships will also be sold in many different levels, depending how much you are prepared to pay for them or have afford with... No Man's Sky is not a MMO, so no markets will exist and there is only one currency (known as, units)... You can't hire AI mercenaries, but you can help different AI space factions to a certain extend, where they will start to provide you assistance with wingmen ships, by a simple button press if they are close by enough... Agressive pirate AI factions will probably exist, as also friendly AI factions will... You can become a pirate, just wage war against every AI faction there is and hope your ship can take the hit. Interaction with flora, fauna, atmosphere have been mentioned. Such as plants can be poisonous, you not being the top of the food chain on some planets and certain planets having gas instead of oxygen and therefor require a upgraded (crafted) suit...
Harry Halme Yeah, that is true. The way I heard it way slightly different, but I'm pretty sure you're actually right. I know that it isn't an MMO by the way. But then where do you buy things? I don't mean the market system from other MMOs, I just meant the part of the space port where you buy stuff. Hello Games had also mentioned that the ships from the first trailer were A.I. that you were partnered with, and the way they mentioned it made me think of them as an NPC you could get to work alongside you, which is what they were basically saying anyways. I just used the term mercenaries. because that's what came to find. I also forgot entirely about factions.
Steve Karamaltidis You did read the other comments right? The other guy is much more on the spot with some things. Just thought it was worth mentioning.
Dark Tenka same man. Today I was binge watching no mans sky stuff and watching like every interview of Sean and he seems like a really humble and hard working guy. I dont even have a ps4 but Im probably gonna get one just for this game.
No sweat bro, it's coming to PC. But yea I was totally doing the same thing, I think it started with the one where he showed some of the dev tools he was using and how the LOD works with the preset algorithm. Just the tech behind this game gives you the impression that this guy is a complete genius (even though he won't admit it). If I hadn't been burn't by hype so many times I'd be calling this guy the next John Carmack/ Notch, right here and now.
Dark Tenka I have really high hopes for him being the next Notch/John Carmack. He's just a very likeable guy. And yes he is definitely a genius. The amount of time and work he's put into this game (and continues to do just that) is just incredible. Im also extremely happy that there won't be any dlc.
+Dark Tenka don't let this guy be like notch, who got one good idea and retired, let this guy make many games of huge scope and push thelimits of waht games are
A.N.H D He's very humble. A lot of people who make ambitious games are very full of themselves and their creations. Murray comes across as very genuine in his love for game design.
+A.N.H D cause hes down to earth making games with a passion and not like most of these assholes that just toss shit out for money thats how i know this games gana be amazing
Yep, very down to earth guy who seems like he'd be cool to hang out with. I pray he goes through with putting this game out on his own. Buying this for my niece and nephew if it comes out before holidays. I think itll be a great game for kids into science or for getting them interested in it if they arent already
I agree. Also, despite being way out of his comfort zone, Sean gave a great interview! He is obviously passionate about what he does which will make an amazing product. Knowing what kind of heart goes into this game will make it 10X's more enjoyable....... I want to work for him.
I've never been more excited for a game. A lot of people seem to be expecting way too much from this title, though. There is no point inventing fantastical ideas, and then being disappointed when the game is released, for things they never even promised. There is plenty of time for them to build up from this refreshing concept! It's only the beginning, and the first chapter in what I hope will be a long lasting franchise
Holy cral bro u just spoked the future lol. Disappointing and one of the worst releases yet in gaming history, to one of the greatest comebacks in the gaming industry
When he's describing the game at a pixel level and then on a macroscopic level, it almost looks as if he's had an overview effect. Which is what some astronauts have described feeling when they view the Earth from orbit. You can honestly see how passionate he is about not only the game but in science itself.
Hello games has gone really far with this idea. The amount of work they seem to be putting in is amazing. Small companies like this bring us new games, something that big named companies cant or mostly prefer not to because of the risk in loosing money.
The only people disappointed with NMS are the people who didn't know what the game is. It's a procedural exploration game. Not Tom Clancey's CS go modern warefare ghost cocks 10 minecraft edition solar citizen IV.
Found out about this game last night....I'm saw the name in a RU-vid comment talking about massive open world and checked it out.....that was the first good RU-vid comment I have ever read....I am hyped....I can't stop watching vids about it...I've only known About it for 24 hours and I need it now....
Sean is the most down to earth and real developer i have ever seen he is like just so happy and excited to talk about his work and he cares about it so much
@@ayylmao575 well at least they picked themselves up and not started on a new game. The game is now a masterpiece. He and the team are far beyond forgiven
I love seeing these sorts of things from the gaming industry. Makes me feel like there are still gamers making honest games. Treating it like a form of art as opposed to another pay check. Really feels genuine and I'm a 100% behind these guys. Keep it up!
Cannot wait for this game, the scale and freedom is almost unimaginable. Also Sean has an amazing personality and you can really see his contagious enthusiasm and pride in hello games and the game while being so laid back and modest.
Imagine if all the amazing game people like Sean Murray, Gaben, Todd Howard, etc sat down and worked on a game, putting money, and all that other shit that ruins games aside, and making a game that is focused on a GAMERS standpoint, and not a marketing standpoint *COUGH EA*
EA kind of screwed up battlefront.but I got my money's worth just because i am a gamer that doesn't care to much about content.only graphics(sort of) and gameplay(major).
I want to see an EA developer sit in that seat. i think the subtitles would read: "money money money money. Money! MONEY! MONEY! money? mon mon? money? mon money mon money moniiiii money mumy mony monzey money! Oh you were asking about the game? HAH!"
No Mans Sky is coming out around mid-2016 provided no major issues are found between now and then. It is currently in what you would call an almost beta state, there are still bugs with the maths around procedural generation for planets (incredibly complicated, probably the kind of algorithms most developers would struggle to understand), not to mention the game is running on its own engine, not something like Unit. As you can probably tell from the video, Sean is actually a really introverted guy. This is why he comes across as quiet and nervous all of the time, incredibly talented and a perfectionist when it comes to his work. The graphical aspect of the game is just one part, you have the gameplay mechanics and server-side aspect to contend with as well. Hello Games know this game is highly anticipated and there is pressure for it to be perfect upon release (given how long it has been in development). The game is also being developed to work for the Oculus Rift and Morpheus VR headsets, both of which are not planned until the first half of 2016 for release. Sony will be using NMS as the centerpiece for showing off what the Morpheus headset can do (which adds to the pressure of this game being perfect on release). Get excited. The hype is real and this game is being released in 2016.
Sean Murray is such a likeable guy. I love his humility and his desire to just do things the way he wants to. I think having a smaller team creates a better environment for everyone to become more than just co-workers, but family. Anyway, I cannot wait for this game, looks absolutely incredible.
Like he said at the end, this game totally has me on forums (reddit) saying some ridiculous things that I don't want to look back on, and it is fucking awesome. You can tell he, and by extension the rest of the team, are really passionate about the game and really believe what they're doing, and that gets me excited about it as well. Can't wait for this. Watched probably 2 hours of interviews/trailers and it hasn't been boring uninteresting just because of the sheer passion. Keep it up guys.
Yea bro! The release of this game was one of the worst ever but unlike other companies, they picked themselves up and now the game is extremlly better then people expectations before the release
Thanks for posting this extended interview. I enjoyed every minute of it. I just couldn't stop watching. I totally think Hello games will deliver with No Man's Sky, and I Don't think they'll disappoint anyone.
I liked what he said about really trying to grasp your mind around the number of stars in the universe to the number of them you only see in the sky at night, its very true. No matter how scientifically progressive someone may be or how imaginative they are, Though they can understand the idea behind number they can never truly understand the vastness... Hope the game does well.
Hello Games are basically the gaming equivalent of the Magratheans. When I play this game, I'll be listening the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy theme for ages (as well as the in-game music)!
Currently my most antisipated game on ps4. i like the way he is reserved about the whole thing and just wants to make his dream game. dont see the same passion in the making of AAA games.
My most anticipated game of 2015, I'm not expecting this to be Halo or Destiny. This will be a unique kind of game that I'm sure won't appeal to everyone. But that's ok by me!
i dont get why he keeps throwing shade at joe danger it was solid but besides that people who wonder why its not on lunchbox one its because microsoft is big and intimidating and they dont make it comfertable for devs to work with them unless your EA or ubisoft because microsoft is only interested in having this big image not having games that are diverse and fun you see how he said it was just natural to bring it to the ps4 because we have friends at sony every dev says that they like sony because there reachable and down to earth you cant say that about many company's...................
I love this guy, he and the team made something amazing and he keeps talking about being afraid that it's gonna fail. and he keeps being honest about it, they don't spoil everything, they just say this is the game, i will not give you details like almost every other game. I just love the campaign. I hope the will give us a release date soon, so we can start counting down!
i wont pre order the game i want to see reviews and that before no doubt it will be amazing but i want to see reviews and know if their will be a monthly cost before i buy the game
I have so much respect for these guys. The passion, commitment and love they show on their projects is amazing and endearing... I have already preordered No Man's Sky, and I have no doubt it's going to be a success, but if it fails I feel absolutely honored to be giving these guys my money. They represent to me what the gaming industry should be, so yeah, please take my money and do wonderful things with it!
for the last 24 hrs since i found out about this game ive been hyping like crazy and pulled every bit of info i can about this game hoping i will learn enough to be satisfied, but hype only grows. i need this now. Sean's so genuine about what he wants from the game and how much he wants people to love it that him alone makes me want to buy it. and once i can play this on Morpheus it's game over for me
I don't know what it is about this guy but I really like him. I can't help but think "Yea I'd have him over for dinner and introduce him to my family". He seems like a cool guy I could have fun hanging out with and talking nerdy with. lol I just want to buy him a beer and hang out.
I'm so glad Sean is down to earth (no pun intended), being an indie developer he has all the more reason to make the game great and not just a hyped up piece of crap like a lot of games recently. Also, the great thing about this game is there is always new things to see. When I play a game long enough, I've eventually seen everything at some point and it gets boring after that. But with NMS we not ever even see all of the things in the game!
He (Sean) should really look up some comments, most of em are really nice, like yours :) Not just that though... I actually agree with you with what you said about games being kind of the same in a way
+Roko567 If you had wrong expectations, yes. If you had actually informed yourself, it's a cool game. In my opinion Hello Games made a good base to turn into an actual game, it got released where it's not fully developed yet
No need to be insecure about being on camera! Most other dev's would have bored me somewhere half-way through the video whereas you seem passionate about gaming and have a vision, that makes me want to watch many more!
I can hear the passion he has for his work. Amazing stuff. Looking forward to getting it and supporting their cause. "I don't look in the mirror... well that's obvious" Awww bless. This guy's so anxious... somebody give him a hug! Sean worked on Burnout?! :o AWESOME.
He's so modest. He should realize the impact this will have on gaming. I'm already in awe over it. This will be one of those games I won't be able to put down for a long long time.
This seems like the most ambitious project in gaming history, this guys need to downgrade all of the expectations for it so that people don't flip out if this game is not what they hoped. I still think it's going to be a great game it just seems like people might expect too much at the moment.
When I was explaining the size of the game to a friend when I pointed out that every player is starting basically on a separate planet and each one has between 40-100 hours minimum to get to that central planet.... she got a good idea of the scope
This shit is truly inspirational. What that company has done is absolutely incredible. This guy is terribly honest and he's for sure on the side of truly creating memorable experiences based on...well....what they love. I can't wait to see their future projects, but this game might be enough to secure them alone!
This guy is the living embodiment of what the gaming industry needs to be, he's so passionate about what he does, I can't wait until no mans sky comes out
No I was just expecting a purpose, I mine shit just to upgrade my storage so I can carry more shit. NMS apologists act like everyone who hates the game just want pvp death matches. I just want to feel like I am doing something that matters. Shit if I wanted to waste my time I'd go outside and watch grass grow.
Holy fuck I can't believe this is a year old, here I am now re-watching this only 12 hours away from exploring the universe, it's surreal, If I had 10,000 dollars to donate to hello games for updates for no mans sky, I would.
What's great about this game is before I even heard of this game, I wanted this game.... For instance I was playing Minecraft and I just thought wouldn't that be awesome to get into a ship and head into space without a loading screen and land on another planet without a loading screen. It seems so small, but I have a feeling a lot of people had this same train of thought also. This game could be the next Minecraft; I don't want to give this game the kiss of death or so called jinxing it BUT I have that much confidence this could be huge.
BUT they are probably hiding lots of things as in settings, because we've seen alien animal things die a lot in no mans sky, yet Sean said there is a lot of different blood types when creatures die.
+Clementine There isn't blood in this game, I have no clue where you got that info but Sean himself has stated that he doesn't want the game to have blood to keep the beauty of it all.
He says 100 million stars, and that's very impressive. What's more impressive is the fact that there are almost 18.5 quintillion planets. This game is going to be incredible.
I really enjoy listening to Sean Murray talk about this game, I think I just like him as a person he seems cool. I'm gonna rinse No Man's Sky when it's out. Been playing Elite: Dangerous in the meantime to tide me over but not being able to get out of my ship and explore and go find new lifeforms uggghhh it's so annoying haha
The fact that this game has no gone through a bunch of different updates and is still being worked on, all for free, means that Sean didn't actually lie, at least not with malicious intentions. He built up what he WANTED the game to be inside his head and used his vision as a placeholder for reality, for what he actually DID have in the game. It's a shame because I'm sure he actually did plan to have all of this stuff in there, but it never ended up working out the way he wanted it to. But I just wanna say, there are actual people out there that are scam artists, con artists, sociopaths, etc. And they all seem charming as hell, just like this guy is. Your first reaction to one of these people will always be "wow, such an inspiration". It's not like in the movies where you get creeped out just by looking at the guy and you're like "I'm outta here". They're likeable and charming. Don't throw your heart out (or your wallet) for someone just because you get good vibes from them. You're supposed to get good vibes from a con artist, that's kind of the whole point. But yeah the fact that they're continuing to support the game, all for free, makes it clear that this guy obviously isn't a con artist or anything like that. If he was, he would have just taken the money and ran.
