President Expected To Pardon No Man’s Sky Developers After Disastrous Debut
Washington D.C. – As a president wraps up his final days in office it is not uncommon for them to start issuing pardons to various people convicted of crimes. And while the world erupted in joy over the pardoning of Chelsea Manning this past Tuesday, what went completely unnoticed was Obama’s pardoning of No Man’s Sky developer Hello Games.
No Man’s Sky was expected to be this past fall’s most important release, but the game fizzled when it did not live up to it’s pre-released hype. Eventually the public started to demand refunds and Steam in particular caved to their user base.
Normally a pardon is reserved for people convicted of crimes and not to companies that release half-assed games, but in this instance a Presidential Pardon would likely be fitting.
