I can't think of a single other game that has redeemed itself nearly as well. The dev's over promised in the beginning but they sure as shit weren't grifting.

Final Fantasy XIV

Diablo III

I'm still salty Diablo 3 2nd expansion got cancelled and the game update went less and less after. Even with a skeleton dev crew maintaining the game, each season can get me a solid 1 week of playtime.

Is Cyberpunk 2077 good now? I remember Cyberpunk fanboys coping with the experience of NMS, saying that maybe in the next update their game will be good too.

Honestly, kinda

The base story is still dogshit, but years of updates have added a fair bunch of missing QOL features, and while Phantom Liberty is lib as fuck, it's a pretty fun story

Firmly in a "pick up both on sale" category for me

Phantom Liberty

the best bit was absolutely demolishing a battalion of black ops rent-a-fash in the end because Songbird is definitely going to get to the moon, you motherfuckers.

imagine siding with the future turbo feds of FBI + CIA combined fash-bash

Played the 2.1 update recently. While its not as buggy as it once was, I have still encountered game breaking glitches here and there, and unlike NMS, instead of going far above and beyond what they initially promised, it seems like they've just brought it up from MVP to what it should've been at release.

Oh hell yes! this update is actually adding depth to game not just more breadth.

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

Took them 8 years but they finally added ship customization

If only the cubeworld developer was as cool as him

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

They’re developing a new open world game lol. I’m curious if they learned their lesson and will actually try this time (I know it wasn’t entirely their fault for NMS) or if they’ll just say fuck it we had our fun.
