I've honestly kinda come to appreciate how NMS doesn't really publicize their updates much beforehand. It's not super hyped up for a month where one hardly feels like playing the game cause it will have more later, and it's hard to be let down over something you didn't anticipate being different before. It's just "oh cool, they added more stuff to the game again"

Well, Sean usually posts an emoji on Twitter that vaguely references an incoming update and its contents. Usually, for 3 to 4 days, sometimes less. It makes the community go apeshit.

Doesnt really tell you what it is tho, beyond something very vague. Its not like promising some feature, getting hyped over it, then finding it isnt as much as what was hyped up

Yeah that's true. I was just saying they have a good approach to hype. I was there the first day he did the emoji and it was awesome. It initially had a rough response but after the first major update it's been a very tried and true approach.
