Current Events > No Man's Sky: Started playing. Reminds of of Subnautica.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I bought it a while ago but finally started playing it last week. I made a character and got about 5 hours in before watching a "tips" video and realizing I had messed up some stuff. Started a new guy and the planet next to mine was a paradise planet. Did some googling and found out those might be kind of rare. I made my base on there and am still working on it.

It's fun so far but there is a lot I'm still trying to figure out. In the anomaly I found an item in my inventory that was worth 50 million credits. found out that can randomly happen when passerbys drop them for new players or soemthing. At first I felt like it was kind of cheating but I upgaded my multi-tool to one that probably has more slots that I will use. I also traded in my first ship for a new B class fighter that had a good amount of inventory spaces.

I noticed you can upgrade your exosuit slots at different merchants. I assumed you could rebuy from the same place every so often but I guess that isn't the case. I have to fly to a whole new system to find a trading post to buy a new upgrade. I'll probably spend some time doing that since I want more tech slots.

Base building is kind of cool. I like the pre-fab big ass square and circular rooms but I wish there was more ability to build that look more freehand. The wood doesn't look good, maybe the stone or the third one do.

I notice there's underwater building but I'm not sure if that's really required or not. I'll have to play more to find out.
