ADHD moment, wanted to warm up before really leaning into a piece for a client and, uh, two days later I got this! I am a little less angry with myself than usual on account of REALLY liking how this one came out!
i love the derelict freighters so much because like the atmosphere vibes are through the roof and they casually have the most horrific backstories. reading the log snippets say shit like "the random gek fucker keeps saying 'where we're going we won't need eyes to see' and its weird" and it gives you the credentials for Operations Entity Glup Shitto. you take all the data and sell it for weird metal at a space station. this shit is great
The pursuit of hype can bring out the worst consequences in gaming. Gamers end up with worse products, and developers are treated like machines to realise grandiose goals that might not be appropriate to their their development deadline.
Let's talk through some problems with (manufactured) hype and the problems it creates.

shoutout to someone named Michael-SB48 in the current no mans sky expedition running a base on my home planet that is not only gorgeous but also has an industrial scale illegal weed growing operation
i love space games with base building and acid rain, yeah this is a nice place to settle down its so "vibrant" (every step in the toxic goo mud melts 0.1cm of rubber off your boots)
Korvax play too much. Constantly scanning your 'form', calling you fascinating, asking to examine your suit and biology 🤨🤨🤨 Horny ass robots, no wonder that archival report of how they reproduce had the dude watching be like "this is too scandalous to look directly at I must avert mine gaze" they know what they're doing!!!!
Got my first exotic ship on a new save a few weeks ago, and I fell in love with it. This popped into my head when I got it, but I just now had the time to get to it. Paradise plaaaaanet~
Been struggling with something of an art-block, so I went back to the safe space of No Man's Sky doodles. Threw a bunch of them in the sin bin, but these came out okay!
Inspired by Those other posts (mainly i saw a splatoon one and a kirby one. And homestuck but i was late to that one). Nms is a game that i think a lot of people know /of/ but not everyone knows much /about/, so this should be fun :]
Please only vote if you don't know which of these is false- No Man's Sky is a big game with a lot of lore that is easy to miss, so its very possible you might've played and not known any of these things. And please reblog to inflict this onto everyone that passes by you >:)
