Galactic Fork
A little fluff between the ears never did any harm...
I know right? Don't forget the guy telling me to go to third planet of the Sheskke System and kill 7 long necked Delids and bring their pelts!

You can't die before your death
He had one of the redditors message him on Twitter blaming him for delaying NMS, like Jason was personally responsible, when the article was published and how he was going to come find and kill him and his entire family. Thats how fucked up it was, and still is.
So he think Jason article is the reason why the game got delayed?? What!! How is that logical?
Death threat to someone and his family over a 1 and half month delay of a game?? Seriously!! What a toxic some of the gaming community are.. My god.
Yeah i never understood this. it's ok for a shooter to be repetitive but not this...(???)
Depends how good you are at making your own fun, I got bored pretty quickly.
We could only hope. However, with Sony backing this game(to some extent), I doubt we'll see anything other than a simultaneous release on both platforms.

Excellent game. Not for everybody though.
Hahah such a great gif usage.
Yup, August sounds nice, I'll probably get this one. Latest IGN video sold it for me, mostly because the interface looked so sweet, reminded me of Destiny.
And, really, this game looks like Destiny should've been from the start? Exploration, unknown, excitement, trading, learning, surviving.

The reaction on reddit for the rumor was bad like with posts like this:
Where Jason Schreier has built up a great reputation that when he posts a rumor it's very true now.
So I was please when I saw this on the official announcement reddit thread.
As always take as much time as you need Hello.

If you look at the guys Twitter, it's obvious he's just a kid. A dumb kid, but still a kid.
...I hope...
20 years dumb indeed.

Awesome delay. They got 20 more euros off from me. I had a pre-order up at base.com but I just noticed I get the limited edition quite cheap locally so I cancelled the base order and paid for the LE.
Nice play Hello Games, nice play!

No chance this comes out on PC before it hits the PS4.

I don't think he implied otherwise. Of course they'll delay it on pc. Wouldn't be surprised if they've sold their soul to Sony.

I sense from this delay game improvements... And VR implementation, to be announced at E3.
Can you please try a little harder when trolling.
I lost a couple pages of this thread, but did they pull the game out of the store? cant find on the Brazilian or NA store

Holy shit that's my birthday. I'll take this as a sign.
Same on UK store, probably just making way for a new page with a new date.

I could feel my IQ dropping just reading some of those NMS subreddit screenshots.
Kotaku writer was just doing his job. But everyone here knows that.
And for my opinion on this game and its new release date: I think that a month.5 delay is a good thing for most games, as it usually indicates final polishing is being conducted. Which is what the main dev said was happening, so that's great.
That being said, I haven't been impressed with this game from a gameplay perspective (procedural generation is obviously cool), and at this point I'm not confident this will be a game that will keep most players' attention for more than a few days.

If a shallow, 2-mode sandbox shooter with zero progression like Overwatch can get 90s and 100s from top gaming sites, then No Man's Sky will be GOAT based on just what we've seen.

I'm fine with the delay.
Wasn't looking forward to this CE and the Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE CE dropping within a week of each other in June. Hopefully though my 65dos soundtrack isn't delayed for June though.

Oh fuck. I hope that another Until Dawn pre-order thing doesn't happen again.
Library still says 23d. I hope they update it on Tuesday, otherwise I think the UD pre-order thing that happened to dozens of us will happen again.

While pithy there are plenty of delayed games that were never good and plenty of bad games that were patched into being good.

I would love to know what the backlog looks like for some of these people complaining about the delay.

My backlog is massive, but I was so excited for this. It also happened to be a birthday present to myself (released 2 days after my birthday) ):

I'm more or less referring to these clowns making death threats to a journalist for reporting news. I can understand being disappointed in delays but there are so many games, books, TV shows, events, and other activities to enjoy in the meantime.
You have to be the lowest level of loser to make death threats to somebody's family over a video game.
I'm playing through Uncharted 4 right now and I'm glad they delayed that game so I could enjoy it at it's full potential. People complain when half baked games get released and people complain when developers take more time to give us our money's worth. They can't win.

Should hit 200 million posts by the end of day.
Worth noting that the delay message was only published on Playstation blog, as far as I can see. No social media account of Hello Games or Sean mention it yet. Not even a link to the blog. Which is very strange.
Jason was right as many thought he would be, which is great for him. Good job keeping the publishers ob their toes with showing how important it is to inform the community at the same time as partners and I mean that sincerely, well done Jason.
On the other hand, while I can nothing but laugh and feel bad about those kids who've nothing better to do than threaten people on the internet because they don't like what someone is saying, especially if it's clearly a shooting the messenger situation, I would expect from someone like Jason to understand how emotionally important a delay of such a game may be to some and expect him not to make comments about those emotional reactions being "unexpected" or "out of hand" or whatever the comments on twitter or reddit from him were, sorry, I don't have it in front of me.
Just report what you know, wait for it to be confirmed by the official side and revel in another case of being right increasing your credibility. Again, not defending any of those ideiots out there who attacked Jason, they clearly need to get a grip, just saying Jason could've left an even better impression by not "looking down" on people being emotional about the affair.

Not really, it's more to do with the fact that were it to come out on June, I would be able to spend a ton of time on the game. Now that it's coming out in August, I don't think I can.
That's fucked man.

It's a pity people don't work on adding variety to their troll posts.
Okay, that's not so bad. I was worried it would be a 2017 title.
I can't wait for this game to come out and put an end to these types of posts.

Oops, right. Had a brainfart. But yeah, my point is that I think for a lot of people early summer affords a bit of freedom and we tend to get busier towards the end, so those people (such as myself) are pretty disappointed.
