I feel that it actually isn't too awesome to be true. Outside of being extremely procedurally-generated, existing in a large universe (both of which we already know are possible) and the ability to fly directly from the surface of a planet, up through the atmosphere to space, we don't really know much about the rest…

Oh, you mean on stage demos in general. Ok, yeah I get ya.

I definitely agree on the hesitance to get hyped about games due to being burned in the past, I'm just confused about what you're calling BS. The on stage demos weren't BS.

Where is it that everyone figured out they were BS? This is news to me. From all the articles I've read from people who have visited the studio and seen the game in development, everything was totally legit.

The difference is we're actually seeing a lot of the things No Man's Sky is being hyped over, instead of the proofs-of-concept stages that a lot of Spore's "revolutionary" ideas ended up getting scrapped at.

November 2013, eh?

Unfortunately being a sexist prick isn't exactly illegal.

Oh yeah, first race I did I was shaking the controller and pressing all the buttons trying to do wheelies and was very sad when I couldn't. :(

I wasn't looking for ground breaking gameplay changes. If you read my other comment, I said it's a fun game, and I love Mario Kart, so I will continue playing it. Just saying I was disappointed by a couple aspects of it (character list and lack of dedicated battle arenas), and I don't think it's a "best game" of any…

I love Mario Kart, and 8 is indeed gorgeous. The improved graphics are very welcome, and the new tracks are great. I guess my problems with it are mainly the poor character roster and lack of dedicated Battle Mode arenas. As for Evan's claim that if the Wii U turns around and starts selling more, people will point to…

While I haven't played many other Wii U games, MK 8 was very underwhelming for me. Nice tracks, yes, but the gameplay changes didn't do too much for me, and the character list is absolutely horrendous. After being disappointed by almost every single character unlock, I just stopped playing once I got them all. 7 of…

Different people find different things fun. There's no such thing as "fundamentally not fun."

Implying that the guy didn't actually play the game before doing speedruns of it.

That's...pretty much the point of a speed run like this. Find the right chain of exploits that will allow you to complete the game as quickly as possible.

Oh ok, so it sounds like you want to use a controller and earn achievements, in exchange for less actual game content. Then yeah, wait for the Vita version. The PC version is the original, the vast majority of Mojang's attention, especially in development, is directed towards it, and it has way more features and…

I only need one: it's full-featured. Why play a console version of a game, when I'm not going to be getting everything I could get if I played the PC version?

Yeah, and I'm a professional software developer. Your argument literally makes no sense. Mojang is doing this so that their customers won't have Minecraft ruined for them because all these big servers are giving powerful perks to people who pay them. I have played tons of games on servers hosted by fans, plenty of…

I said Hypixel will not have to shut down. I'm sure they'll have to make adjustments to their stores and stuff, and that's ok. They'll survive, as Hypixel himself said.

As for the Hive, I really feel no sympathy towards that. The point of a server is community, so why split your community within the server between…

Let's look at it this way:
