Your hard work, dedication and clear love for the product you’re building is really heartwarming.

I’ve actually been enjoying this game since 2016 but couldn’t say that publicly online without getting hate from strangers on the Internet, a similar thing happened this year with Cyberpunk.

So to see everyone finally celebrating this game and how great Hello Games and Sean are is a really amazing feeling.

Obviously there will always be the rotten eggs who’ll continue to hate, but I hope they know that the vast majority of us really appreciate the effort they’ve put into improving NMS.

Thanks guys!

This seems to come up in every thread about Expedition 12: Omega, the upcoming expedition and update that is currently in beta for PC players who want to test it out. Streamers have little else to do but speculate and spoil, so perhaps some of the anxiety comes from watching them, too.

There are separate teams for Hello Games projects. This happened with The Last Campfire – NMS continued to be updated both during its development and after its release. There’s no reason to think Light No Fire, despite being visually and possibly plot-wise more connected to NMS, is going to “take away” from NMS development and updates. “Omega” has meanings other than “the end” – the symbol is used in many ways in science and math. And does anything ever really end in No Man’s Sky, anyway?

Honestly, I don’t think anything other than the announcement of a direct sequel to NMS would be reason to be worried. But in that case, we’d be looking forward to a whole new chapter in the same universe anyway!
