The repeatability of sandboxing: One game got it right, and NMS could do it too

Hello Gammers, HelloGames … oh well.

Don’t worry, this is constructive. I have over 500h on Permadeath and countless others in other modes and I am soon restarting all over again, I love this game.

These days I was wondering what made me want to actualy play another “open world survival” game that is so much smaller, and I noticed something. That game has somethings very small, easy to implement, but that ends up creating a strange sense of novelty every time you replay. That game is Subnautica.

You see, in Subnautica you have a small dread of the unknown, of finding something … dangerous. Lurking around. So even when you are an experienced player who literally knows where every dangerous area/creature is, it is still thrilling to get near those areas, to enter and dare the big challenge.

I miss that on NMS. The game has none of that, the most danger you get is tame compared to that. And lets face it, in the vastness of the universe, you are just as likelly to find cute rideable unicorn-bears, as something that will eat you – whole.

So why not do this tiny bit change. Some planets can have something powerful, something sinister, either on the depths of the oceans or the high mountains. And they don’t need to be that big, but should be respectable, visible, loud.

The idea is not to put something that will scare users, that will make someone rage quit they lost their progress. The idea is to put something that has fair warning, that tells you “dude, you shouldn’t be here, I hope you know what you are doing”. And if you are up to it, you don’t need rewards, you only need the thrill of slaying that thing, of putting your foot down (because if you add unique rewards to very hard encounters, the more casual players won’t really like it a bit).

Something that I miss in Subnautica (and NMS), is the possibility of large creatures to actually damage your base. Sure, 99.99% of people wouldn’t build a base nowhere near these dangerous creatures, but what if I wanted? what if I want to dare? Build a base with redudancies and extra layers of protection to stand that sandwork, that winged demon? the treachearous boss abomination?

And same in space. From time to time you should bump into something that will scare you. The random encounters right now are silly, you chuckle and go away, mark down one more encounter you hadn’t experienced yet. But what if you encounter something that tells you …. no, not even going to scan it, I’m out of here.

So, a little sense of awe, of dread, not necessarily always leading to death and loss, but to get out of there, or maybe, let’s face this thing!

And its not even hard to do it. Get some big assets, put huge HP, some good damage (but not one-hit kill), and some rules on where it can spawn (planet type, star system type). Maybe even just tweak the already existing random encounters, and then add some 5 new mobs that could even look the same everywhere, but for that reason … you know what it is, and its time to run.

QUICK GUIDE and REWARDS for Expedition 12 - Omega

QUICK GUIDE and REWARDS for Expedition 12 - Omega

https://preview.redd.it/cln7kh7natjc1.jpg?width=1906&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c93c4c885338ce4953013b69d0bbe923ff0dd140

Hi fellow travelers. I’m building this guide with images and all and I’ll share with the community soon. Please let me know if there’s anything to add, like some quick tips/reminders.

…………………………………………..

Starting the expedition from an existing save or from scratch

– If you want a new character, a new save, start the expedition from scratch on the main menu. You’ll keep your character, the ships you found, freighter, all multi-tools and items after you end the expedition – the game will convert your expedition save to a normal save.

– If you want you can use an existing character, start the expedition from the Space Anomaly on the Expedition Terminus, then transfer items and copy multi-tools/ships between your main character and the expedition character at any time using the terminus.

Recommended items to transfer

– Before starting the expedition, it’s recommended to transfer some items in the terminus, to save some time and give you more comfort during the journey, like:

Liquid Explosive (or Acid + Unstable Gel, or 25 Mordite + 200 Cactus Flesh + 200 Fungal Mold)
Economy Scanner
Advanced Mining Laser
Analysis Visor Upgrades
Hazard Protection Upgrades
Microprocessors
Wiring Looms
Salt
Crystal Sulfide
Silver
Copper
Cadmium
Emeril
Indium

– The current equipped multi-tool and ship of your main character can be copied to your expedition character and it’ll cost you nanites to do so.

– Your main character looks will be copied/transferred to your expedition character once you start the expedition.

– After you end the expedition, everything that remains in your inventories will be converted to units and your nanites and quicksilver will also be transferred to your main character.

– Don’t forget to copy the Starborn Runner ship (including the Photonix Core tech pre-installed in the ship) and the Atlas multi-tool from the expedition to your main character.

…………………………………………..

Reward: Starborn Runner ship with Photonix Core pulse drive

After you complete every phase of the expedition, you can claim your Starborn Runner ship.

This ship will have a Photonix Core tech installed.

Using the expedition terminus in the Anomaly, you can copy this ship (with the techs installed, but not the cargo items) to your main save.

You’ll then have a Starborn Runner on your expedition save and on your main save.

Before ending the expedition, you can pack the Photonix Core of your ship and send this tech to your main save using the terminus in the Anomaly.
