…is Vortex Cubes as base decorations.

I’m 100% serious. A very small, simple request. I want to be able to place Vortex Cubes all over my bases.

Why? For all my fellow Day 1 players, you remember back when the game launched in 2016 when Vortex Cubes ruled the entire economy pretty much? If you found a planet with Vortex Cubes, you hit the jackpot, and you stayed there and grabbed all that you possibly could to turn in at trading posts to buy a new starship. Sometimes, they even looked like this on planets.

Vortex Cubes also were used to craft one of the hyperdrive upgrades before NEXT dropped if memory serves.

Now? They’re barely worth anything. They can’t be crafted, can’t be cooked, or refined, they don’t even drop Tetracobalt anymore. They’re just used for selling to make a very small amount of units.

The way I see it, just add them as base decorations at least to let us build cool stuff with them.

Just my two cents. Call it nostalgia for NMS 2016 if you must, but seeing Vortex Cubes in game always takes me back. I just want to be able to actually DO something with them again. What do you all think?

Me: Google, where’s the nearest gas station?

Car: There’s a Point of Interest twenty kilometers north.

Me: Point of Interest? Is that a gas station?

Car: Maybe. It might be a motel. Or a KFC. Or a supermarket. Or an abandoned factory.

Me: Hey! There’s a gas station right in front of me, like five hundred yards away! Why didn’t you tell me about that?

Car: There’s a Point of Interest twenty kilometers north. And I’m not telling you about anything else until you visit it, then you can ask me again.

Me: *Tears the car’s stupid brain out and throws it out of the window*
