It was weird to watch the NMS train wreck happen in such fashion. Critical people were actively warning people this would happen, and yet everyone went literally nuts for a scripted cinematic. The whole thing smelled from the beginning, because there's people showing demos, there's people showing cinematic, but Murray showed a cinematic with a controller on hand pretending it was a demo. That's, like, as red as a flag could get. I'm glad the studio survived the whole con job, because the 500000 or so people getting sold on a dream actually made possible for them to survive to the NEXT patch, which is making me even consider the possibility of a purchase if the reviews are good and the netcode/servers are proven able to handle the load. But a word of warning, this is just them doing marketing before a major patch, so I'd be wary of the article content given the suspicious timing. That said, I wish people could live up to their mistakes instead of throwing death threats and harassing other people. For whatever Murray did, that kind of behavior is never warranted.
