I love procedural generation, especially about three-quarters through the episode when the bad guy accidentally confesses.

but like i have a feeling that ppl wont be discovering this kind of stuff for long. sort of like how in trivial pursuit when you start getting the same questions you got a while ago

you could play No Man's Sky for every minute of every day for the next 9 billion years and you still won't have explored more than 0.00000003% of the universe

this is one of many possibilities as you explore the universe in No Man's Sky

I'll buy this when it's like 15 bucks or whatever. Seems like a decent chillaxe couch game. A "No Man's Sky & Chill" style of game, if you will.

I for one, am color blind, and look forward to planets that have trees of differing textures. For instance, one planet has trees which actually appear to have the texture of a rock. It's mindbogglingly awesome, tbh.

On another planet there's a human hut, and mud people live in it.

Even further out into the galaxy you can find mud people in a zone with no water, and they're simply called sand people.

I watched an illegal stream of the game and this German guy found a fat deer that was stuck running in place and it had giant bug eyes and multiple tails and then he got banned from Twitch.

We'll probably never see that species of deer ever again.

with procedural generation and the sheer number of explorable planets, sheer odds dictate that every person's mother is inhabiting at least one planet in the universe
