A lot of games have made things better with paid updates/expansions, but NMS really seems to be the only one where the free updates have fixed the game. Hell, there were jokes going around with the last big free update that people wanted to pay them more for all these free updates.

Final Fantasy XIV 1.0 to A Realm Reborn.
Granted, expansions after that were sold, but still, that one update turned the game around and allowed it to turn a multi-million dollar failure into a multi-million dollar success.

Forgot about that one. The beta was so bad I refused to play at original release.

Homeworld 3
Oh no wait that’s the opposite…

Issue with that is I pre-order the game before release based on false information. Gave up playing after 6 months because it sucked. When they finally got it to what they initially promised. It became almost unplayable by the amount of grinding that had to be done to even earn enough to by a freighter. Again gave up playing. So now sits on my shelf part of my collection.
Oh almost forgot when they updated they corrupted my save file so I lost all the progress I made in that 6 months. So that pissed me off as well.

I mean you pre-ordered. You got what you deserve

I’m not gonna look up the picture but just pretend I posted the picture of makarov with the caption “remember no pre-orders”

Freighters aren’t difficult to get now…
Tap for spoiler
They just straight up give you a freighter after 3 hyper jumps IIRC

And when you say now, it’s been that way since about a year after the game was released.

Sure does. Just not sure I can get back into this game.

The important thing for me is that they didn’t just shrug and move on to something else. The devs take the issues and suggestions and work towards a better game each time. What other company has completely overhauled a game like this?
