With marketing departments hellbent on generating hype prior to a game's launch, and video games expected to be bigger and better with each console generation, there's a lot of pressure on new titles. Often a studio can misstep, over-promising or announcing games too early and inevitably paving the way for fan disappointment. The most notorious example of this in recent years is No Man's Sky. When Hello Games first announced No Man's Sky at E3, players and critics were blown away by the premise of the game and the ambition of the relatively small studio. With potentially billions of planets to explore, No Man's Sky had a lot to deliver. Sadly, the original game fell far short of what fans were expecting, and Hello Games became the recipient of a vitriolic backlash.
