No Man’s Sky is both a cautionary tale and a redemption tale all in one, and Hello Games is not giving up on its title any time soon!

    I would love for some more variety on the one planet. I feel like once you’ve landed and explored a 100m radius you’ve basically seen everything the planet has to offer.

    How cool would it be to land in a desert, then takeoff and fly across jungles, heading to the poles for snow etc.

    They said, the updates they’ve made have been amazing. You can land on water and fish from your spaceship now!

      Yep, that’s my biggest gripe, too. “As vast as an ocean, as deep as a puddle”, is the notion I heard about it. Applies to all procedurally produced worlds I’ve seen. Doing more different would be a great effort for the devs, probably too expensive.

      I’d suggest having community designed worlds (with enough regulations and filtering to avoid the unoccasional swastika and the likes).

      This is part of what’s going to make Light No Fire so cool. I’m sure that some of the tech now being added to NMS is being added as a way of testing or proving hypotheses for LNF. I hope we do see more of the LNF mechanics (like multiple biomes on one planet) be backported, like I suspect the improved water, and fishing mechanism may have been.

      I’m hoping a lot of the work they’re putting into Light No Fire will be brought back into No Man’s Sky, and that this will be a part of that.
