The No Man's Sky Card

An argument ending excuse to be used when one genuinely enjoys something that is widely disliked, or discouraged, and feels they should not have to validate their enjoyment of it; but one's friends give them unending shit about liking said thing or activity.

"Bro I can't believe you listen to Nickelback, their music is so trash"

"Hey man, I just like their music, I'm pulling the No Man's Sky card"
"Ugh, fine"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Why do you play video games on console? PC is better in every way!"
"I'm pulling the No Man's Sky Card, it's just what I like"
"Okay, whatever"

No Man's Sky Effect

The 'No Man's Sky Effect' is used to described an occurrence when someone will not pay for something until after it has been released to public.
This is to ascertain whether the product will be good before buying it.

The 'No Man's Sky Effect' is caused by the game "No Man's Sky". The developers built up the game and informed everyone of these amazing features that will be included in the game. Doing so, they earned a great lot of money through kickstarter donations etc. However upon release it turned out that the majority of these features were either lies or not everything they cracked up to be. This caused the game to become a massive disappointment to everyone who had paid a lot of money towards the game.

And now because of this many people have become afeared to buy a game before public reviews come out.

"Ah man, everyone's pre-ordering the new Far Cry game. You should get it too"
"No thanks. I'm going to wait"
"How come?"
"The No Man's Sky Effect is kicking in"

No Man’s Sky

As a verb; “We were No Man’s Sky’ed” or; “CD Project RED really tried to No Man’s Sky us with Cyberpunk 2077”.

Alternative use; “To pull a No Man’s Sky”

The act of intentionally releasing a game unfinished and dealing with the backlash to reap early profits and attempt to recoup lost reputation of the company by fixing the game over the initially intended development cycle.

A tactic used by greedy developers and directors to “release the game twice” and getting more profits while attempting a redemption story for clout.

They tried to No Man’s Sky their game
