Most games get you to upload your save with a bug report, so that’s entirely not correct.
While true, the case in this article is that the game developers are fixing the broken save file for the player so they can load it and play it. Not just reporting the game is making bugged saves. Most game devs do not do this. Some do but the vast majority do not.
A lot do, they just don’t make a marketing gimic out of it.
Do you think every little developer is gonna get a spot light for what they do? For every story you hear there’s thousands already doing it and more, but they aren’t popular so they don’t get a little shoutout, other than in their communities.
Go explore some Steam discussions and see the devs in there asking for saves, I don’t know what else to say here, but this isn’t news. Almost any dev will care if you send them a save and a specific issue.
Are you saying they commissioned this article or something?
Not accusing you of this, but I still encounter holdovers with an irrational amount of hatred for HG/No Man’s Sky from the butchered launch, 8 years ago.
Its hard to make sense of the disparagement implied by your comment otherwise though.
