10 Video Game Plot Twists That Were Profoundly Insulting

2. The Centre Of The Galaxy Is A Reset Button - No Man's Sky

Firstly, hats off to Hello Games. The version of No Man's Sky you can pick up today is one of the best space exploration RPGs of all time, with a gorgeous graphics engine, awesome art direction, scores of varied, fun ways to play and an all-round feeling of passionate developers creating something with a real vision.

At launch though? It released as a spectacularly mis-marketed and lied-about game, leading consumers to purchase off the back of various promised game features that simply didn't exist, despite being mentioned on talk shows and websites across the board.

Multiplayer, factional warfare and a more direct story were some of the biggest, but another was the mystery of what lay at the centre of the universe. Hello Games' Sean Murray discussed an "incredible experience" and hinted at, well, something being there many times before launch, but the reality was a stunningly empty sequence where your whole game's progress resets.

Done by zooming AWAY from the central sun until you were back where you began hundreds of hours ago, this was supposed to bring about "oohs" and "aahs" as to the never-ending nature of discovery, but it made most of us think "f**k this" instead.

I can't help but think if you zoomed through the sun and out into another galaxy, it would've saved the whole thing.
