That's fair, and I have no problem with people who liked the game. If you did, more power to you, I am glad you feel as though you got your money's worth.
I think the uproar really came from the fact that people felt Sean Murray straight-up lied about the features of the game and then when called out after release, Hello Games just went dark for a long period of time. I think the uproar was fairly justified, though as you said, it is just a game and it's not like people lost their life savings.
No Man's Sky suffered from the "hype train" more than any game I can remember in recent history. There were lies, deceit, and truckloads of hype. And the funny part is I think deep down no one expected it to actually DELIVER based on the fact that we all knew it was a small indie studio promising things that even AAA games couldn't deliver. I'm glad to see these updates and that there is still a community for the game - it's definitely too little too late BUT I would like to see the developer venture on to something new with a "lesson learned" attitude and maybe deliver something spectacular in the future.
