    Im holding off too much excitement incase Sean is pulling another Peter Molyneux.

    A game the size of earth or larger is actually an absurd concept and if it turns out to be real ill eat my keyboard

      Iirc they are using the same tech as NMS and we all know that even the smaller planets and moons are huge when on the surface. I expect a ton of bugs early on and throughout but that’s just the nature of Hello Games. NMS was a herculean task after all.

      I do wanna wait for the game to get smoothed out a bit after launch but I’m also morbidly curious to see it from the very beginning. It might be a day one purchase but not sure yet. I started NMS 9 years after release but that was on purpose. I kept up on it throughout it’s painful launch and updates until I felt it was “finished” and also functional on Linux.

      I mean its possible that Hello Games faceplants with Light No Fire but based on their track record they will probably keep updating and supporting that game till 2040
