Made with love, but definitely has its flaws, so don’t know about forever.

I can’t think of a single piece of art that doesn’t have flaws.

Talk about a game with an amazing redemption ark. I played it on release, realized how shallow it was and put it down after maybe 5 or 6 hours. Fast forward a year or so and I heard it had significant updates. I was amazed when I picked it back up.
I play it again every year or so and am always impressed that they keep adding things to this game. Such a rare occurrence that a game that flopped so hard could really turn it around.
It’s not a 10/10, but to call it anything but a labor of love would be unfair to the developers at Hello Games, including Sean Murray. That man received a ton of shit on the release of the game but didn’t take his money and run. Last I checked he’s still there and that says something to the character of that group in my eyes.

And they are, somehow, still providing regular updates to this day. Looks like their most recent major update was just a few weeks ago.

I’m under the impression that because of how hyped the game was on release they realized they all had it made and can more or less run the company off that financial momentum. After all it was a fairly small team. Which is still a really admirable thing to do when comparing it to what most major developers do with their titles upon success…
Milk that DLC cow and move straight onto the sequel baby! Shareholders must receive value and number must go up!

Privately owned (no shareholders), small team that seems to love what they’re doing, they can likely go on forever. Strange how a lack of shareholders correlates with good games (/platforms, Valve!) isn’t it ?
