Hang on, I’m getting a imaginative and prescient of one thing. I see… I see a extra various No Man’s Sky, with correctly alien aliens and 5 new planetary biomes. I see cool derelict spaceships, historic buried skeletons and launchable fireworks. I see double rainbows, all the way in which throughout the sky.
I see the brand new trailer for Visions, an upcoming replace that appears to have leaked from Hello Games.
That made me alternate between ‘ooh’ noises and shrugs. I’ve already talked about my oohs: these procedurally generated shipwrecks additionally seem like they’ll be enjoyable to rummage round, and I dig the concept of unearthing xeno-dino fossils. I additionally recognize the emphasis on making the universe but extra vibrant, particularly the yellow haze round these new storm crystals. We additionally see a snippet of somebody harvesting new supplies from spaceship particles, and the metal-ey sheen of one of many new anomalous planets.
I’m most intrigued by the brand new wildlife. I’m hoping these bizarre burrowing shards are simply the tip of the iceberg: up until now No Man’s zoo how contained far too many animals which boil right down to deer with fronds. I wrote a complete supporter put up a few weeks in the past concerning the worth of ‘What Is That??’ moments, which I’ve at all times felt No Man’s Sky is criminally missing.
That didn’t cease me leaping again in again when the big ‘Next’ update overhauled a lot of the game, and it didn’t cease me having fun with using out that curve of semi-meaningful actions for an additional eight hours or so. I appreciated how the brand new story prodded me ahead and a handful of latest duties meant I had sufficient to do, however I wouldn’t describe any particular person process as significantly riveting.
That was earlier than I may build underwater bases or ride motorcycles. Combined with the variability on the focus of this replace, they’ve bought me trying skywards once more.
We don’t but know when the replace can be out, and I’ll replace this put up with extra information as soon as that is correctly introduced.
