    At the beginning of the video, I was angry and frustrated, then near the middle I was pitiful and empathetic, and then I was uplifted and hopeful. Then, near the end of the video I was oddly aroused.

      I mean even EA... *Eviltronics fArts* itself, was able to redeem themselves a little bit last year by allowing Respawn to publish a good Star Wars single player game with zero BS attached to it. No loot boxes, no overpriced DLC, no nothing. Just... a good game, that you can finish within about 10-15 hours. For 60$. There you go. And I was convinced that company would just eventually implode under the weight of its own greed and die, that nothing good could ever again come out of their damp putrid entrails, and they proved me wrong! If EA can do it, everyone can. Looking at you.... Bethesda. I'm still holding on to sliver of hope that Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield might be good, if not excellent games. You've always been pretty lazy with polishing out bugs, but Skyrim was an amazing foundation upon which you used to allow everyone to develop mods (including fixes for the aforementioned bugs) that made it into one of the best games of the decade! If we could just pull back to pre-Horse Armor Bethesda, that would be awesome!

      @PlebNC 4 роки тому +910

      Actually it's not copyrighted. As he states in the video, it's trademarked which is different. A trademark is basically a precise definition of what constitutes your brand and are used to stop fraudsters impersonating the genuine brand and discourage brands with similar brands from being similar to make it easier for customers to tell them apart. Sky's basically saying "you can't call your game Sky because people will confuse it with us" or that the fonts, colours, etc resemble their brand.
      This is of course, hilariously not true as Hello Games isn't even a rival in the same industry as Sky and the 2 properties' branding are as similar as Crash Bandicoot and Doom.
      Chances are Sky just wanted to exercise their trademark to show the courts they actually use it as not using it enough can lead to a trademark being revoked or make their prosecution weaker when they find someone actually worth going after.
      And they probably had a loophole or something working in their favour, like how here in the UK supermarket own brand cola has very, very similar branding to Coke Cola but gets away with it because the colours and fonts aren't close enough to what Coke Cola's trademark defines as their particular shade of red for a lawyer to be needed.

    I've watched this video several times over the years, primarily because your comedy is timeless and never gets old. But also because I love how you go about this story, it's so well done and absolutely 💯 % correct. Fortunately as write this. Sean Murray and hello games/no man's sky have been not only completely redeemed but been a shining example of what every game developer SHOULD do when, despite best efforts or intentions, release an unfinished game. Like fall out 76 for example. Unfortunately, this story is the exception to the rule. The only reason it's a redemption story is because the entire team genuinely cares for its creation and despite how it was realized. They took the beatings like a world champ, made no promises, in fact they said nothing and just began DELIVERING. Actions speak louder than words has never rang so true. In fact everytime this happens nowadays and we get promised a shiny AAA game but get a shiny turd instead, after they've excepted our money, what do they do? They apologize but promise to fix everything in future updates, or "seasons" but then charge you for it....ugh...nvm....I love this story and I love how you portray Sean, I wish he could see this video.

    The story of Sean is one of the most inspiring and humbling story’s I’ve ever heard. I’m not a game developer, but I did screw up in a relationship, and was demonized for my mistakes for a year now, however, just like Sean, I didn’t reach out to the one who left me, I didn’t bug them, all I did and am still doing is working on myself, and I’ve gained much more happiness than the depression I was in for the first couple months of my breakup. My point is that if someone like Sean, who disappointed everyone, can pick himself back up and reach success, anyone can do it, anyone can change and be the best version of themselves, it just takes time, and self love.

He was so sincere about his love of sci fi and what he wanted out of it, and I'm pretty sure that's why he never quit - He still wants his perfect game to play.
      The cool thing is, since it's procedurally generated... He may get to play his game, super perfected someday, and still not know exactly what's going to happen. Even AFTER all this development.

No one likes a handsome guy going around looking all handsome and answering questions.

      The problem wasn’t that he looked to good or whatever you even mean by that. First a good appearances and confidence are actually two vital parts of a good marketing person.
      The problem was he lied throughout the entire marketing campaign and the Game didn’t just „need work“. You make it sound like the game had minor launch issues and wasn’t a bug infested mess with barley any content with years of work ahead before it became playable.

    Genuinely genius. Because, like, who the hell does that? No-one else even thinks that.
    But it's a next level strategy.
    As that one episode of Star Trek had it, "turn disadvantage into advantage" - every complaint becomes a data point on a graph that charts how to turn it all around.
    He kept listening to the audience, even when they were freaking out and sending him death threats. He still kept listening.
    And channelled out of it exactly what people were expecting, extracted a plan out of it and then implemented that plan perfectly. Suppressing his own ego to a level that would make even a Vulcan jealous.
    He deserves a fucking award for that alone, frankly.
