No Man's Sky trailer offers glimpse of vast sci-fi wonderland

I call total shenanigans on the “every atom is procedural claim”, because no computational system in the world can simulate a virtual game world on the atomic scale.

This is just as much of a blatant exaggeration as when the first Fable game claimed that choices as small as treading on and killing a certain flower would irrevocably change the world - it’s essentially outright lying to produce a higher expectation of the game than is reasonable.
