I’m relatively new to this game (if 80 hours can be considered new), most of my time has been spent just messing around exploring – you know how it is. I have little story to tell.

Honestly haven’t had the best day today, went to a badminton tournament and felt pretty rough, didn’t play well etc. so as any sane person would do, I hopped on no mans sky when I got home.

Wasn’t expecting much, just looking to lose myself in space and found myself in the anomaly and completely out of the blue came a player by the name of “Craftyblock#2284 the undying”, didn’t say anything or invite me to a party but he gifted me 2 void Eggs. I thought there must be a mistake so I sent them back, he then proceeded to send me them back along with 10 others! TWELVE TOTAL! This might not seem like a lot to many but I don’t know the value and that wasn’t what mattered to me personally.

I had barely anything in return but I’d just completed a nexus mission so I handed over all my ancient bones as some form of “payment” if you can even call it that. He then continued to gift me stuff: an AI dreadnought fragment, 50 suspicious packets of tech and items worth 12 million units! I tried to invite him to my party but he didn’t accept, he simply said Yes! To my Thank you and left.

I don’t know if you are out there my friend but just know you made a man’s day, I don’t care about the items personally but the simple kind gesture made me go from having a pretty rough weekend to a much more wholesome one. As someone who has come across from the rocket league community (if ykyk lol) this made me realise just how good this community is. If you’ve managed to sit around and read this, have a wonderful weekend travellers! <3

I already posted this on r/No_Mans_Sky but I thought I’d share it here as well.

It’s really weird, I know, but the alien animals are probably one of my all time favorite parts of the game. I get all sentimental about my digital space friends and it’s hard to let them go in favor of a cooler one.

My girlfriend suggested this and I think it’s too genius not to mention, but we can keep the system of having 6 companions. We can only have 6 ACTIVE companions at a time. Every companion that isn’t active can be stored at a base, either in some type of storage or in actual enclosures.

That way you’re still somewhat limited (only I’m not sure why that’s important) and those cool one-of-a-kind creatures are not lost forever. If you let us build enclosures, we could also build space zoos.

Let me say that again.

Space. Zoos.

Thank you very much for your time and attention.
