Bought NMS when it came out. I was pretty much oblivious to the hype and to the masses of negative reviews.

Instead I was happily travelling the galaxy by myself.

Five years later and I’m still playing this game. Still loving the experience and pottering around in my part of the galaxy.

No other game I’ve played in my 40 years of gaming has done this. And no other game has continually been upgraded, updated and made even more enjoyable, (For Free!) by a team that truly loves what they do.

Nothing beat the excitement of accidentally bumping into another Traveller. Or building a base on your perfect planet. Or exploring the galaxy alone.

Reading the community posts and threads shows also what a wonderful and non toxic group of players we have too.

Long may it continue.

Thank you Hello Games. Thank you fellow travellers.

So I keep dying because I play late night after work and family stuff and fall asleep – heat, radiation, etc… I’ve lost millions of units value of resources – the typical find the grave next to my ship or last save point and it’s empty because already died multiple times. Then have to pick myself up, jump into ship find a more hospitable planet, gather resourcea and repair and rebuild.

Besides, log off before I fall asleep, any other recourse? I’m new and don’t have an exocraft, would that be enough protection while I mine and explore…I actually love to mine and scan the fauna for units and nanites.
