nms-spoilers

[mental socket]

Drove vykeen to the outer edges

[sturdy sorrel]

i forget what is happening to the pc the atlas is housed in?

[velvet birch]

Wow, so how do the gek and Korvax not fight still? Gek and Korvax chill on the space stations lol.

[sturdy sorrel]

pc server, you know what i mean

[sturdy sorrel]

the gek are traders now, and the korvax were the ones that did that to them, and they are basically one large semi-hive mind so its not like any korvax aren't unaware of what happened

why risk the gek returning the favor when you already got your revenge, just tolerate their presence and enjoy solace in the fact that the first spawn are now barely a fraction of what they were

[wind panther]

My head canon is that the planet the Atlas is on is flooding due to climate change and that's what the abyss represents, the water rising, slowly taking out systems

[sturdy sorrel]

the abyss is the void mother

[wind panther]

Do you have a citation for that?

[sturdy sorrel]

anyone who drinks the water mentions "HER" and is controlled

[wind panther]

Didn't mean that to sound combative 🙂

[sturdy sorrel]

and our little sentinel buddy also fills in a few gaps

was it never explained why the server/pc the atlas is in is dying out/being destroyed?

[clear citrus]

its being swallowed by a blackhole i think

[wind panther]

Not that I know of

[velvet birch]

So do the races hate each other still or do they tolerate coexisting with each other now

[clear citrus]

says in the remembrance terminals

[sturdy sorrel]

wait the pc is being swallowed by a black hole?

ok then....

[sturdy sorrel]

toleration is the best summation

[wind panther]

The Atlas was meant to run simulations to try to find a way to save the planet, which doesn't sound like a black hole to me

[sturdy sorrel]

dunno what can be done about a black hole

[clear citrus]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Rogue_Data

[wind panther]

You're right, I forgot that stuff

Black hole it is

[velvet birch]

I am a noob at this lore. Please explain to me in short what the atlas is? Apparently it has its own language cause I learn atlas words from monoliths sometimes. But I don’t know anything.

[sturdy sorrel]

what about this plot twist?
the atlas did infact find a way to save the world, and the reason it was left alone is because humanity escaped the planet and abandoned it.
The black hole is infact hardware failure leading to artifacting and bad sectors on its storage

to a computer, data that cannot be read is like a black hole

[icy citrus]

This all assumes the Atlas isn't lying about these things it shows us

[sturdy sorrel]

why would a dying machine bother lying

there is nothing to be gained

[icy citrus]

How do we know it's dying

It showed us

One of the problems in being in a sim

What's really real and what's for the sim

[sturdy sorrel]

you have a good point, what if someone is running the atlas in a VM as a sandbox of sorts, shutting down is functionally killing it

i do think the "black hole" is some sort of hardware failure/bad sector on the storage medium

[icy citrus]

Yeah something of that nature makes sense

World of Glass has always meant data storage to me as well

[sturdy sorrel]

a black hole is a hole in reality where it is impossible to escape.
Bad sectors cannot be read, and to a computer everything within that point is lost, that might as well be a black hole

its unknowable and unperceptible

[icy citrus]

Yep

[sturdy sorrel]

whatever is happening on the outside of the pc is unknown but at the very least if we give the atlas the benifit of the doubt, it has been left to eventually succumb to some form of hardware failure

i do wonder if the void mother can escape and make its way onto whatever vestige of the internet remains if the world is screwed

[icy citrus]

👀

[unborn raven]

hmm dang, sentinel capitals just spawn infinite interceptors now huh

[velvet birch]

What the hell! Man this lore is like that theory that we are in a simulation. Nms Universe is a simulation!? Damn!

[unborn raven]

oops, wrong channel

[sturdy sorrel]

if i really were to guess, the atlas is infact being ran on RAID 1 configuration and the world of glass the abyss is trying to reach is the backup drive. where the world/atlas is still intact

[unborn raven]

yeah that's pretty much explicitly it

[velvet birch]

Bro, First spawn Gek remind me of Viltrumites.

[sturdy sorrel]

the drive our atlas is on is failing, and the data therefor has become desynchronized, meaning if the void mother can get over to the other drive, maybe korvax prime still exists

[unborn raven]

simulation theory was very hot and happening in the mid 2010s. it's kinda like how half the sci fi stories from the 90s are some flavor of multiverse theory

[analog breach]

They are more like 5 dollar store ferengi 😂

[sturdy sorrel]

argonian nazis is probably the best explaination ive heard

especially considering what they do to the korvax

[analog breach]

5 dollar store nazi ferengi drug addicts. 😂

[sturdy sorrel]

for all we know the "hardware death" the atlas is worrying about is infact only its dead drive, and there is possibly an entirely seperate atlas and korvax prime that is still intact on the second RAID 1 drive

[velvet birch]

So are the first spawn all gone? I bet they are doing the whole “evil empire in exile gonna return one day trope”

[sturdy sorrel]

you don't make a simulation without a backup, where is the backup.

[sturdy sorrel]

no they are in hiding somewhere

[unborn raven]

yeah they're gone

[analog breach]

On second hard drive

[sturdy sorrel]

a small amount of first spawn remain

[sturdy sorrel]

exactly

my guess is once the void mother escapes the atlas, the first spawn are gonna take over again, and use the shells of what was the sentinel's to regain control of the universe despite their depleted numbers

[unborn raven]

i haven't been around for like six months, is the void mother a recent thing

[velvet birch]

Yeah

[sturdy sorrel]

the void mother is the abyss, and the ghostly conciousness of korvax prime

the korvax prime after being destroyed had somehow wormed its way into the Aerons, and turned them into the sentinels

the universe now unable to control its force of action, could only sit and watch as the void mother did as she did, fighting the vy'keen and eventually leading to her murderer the first spawn being turned into their diminutive forms we know now in the game, the gek

[unborn raven]

aeron?

[sturdy sorrel]

the aeron are what the sentinels were, and they weren't originally meant to aggressively attack the races, they were solely meant to be the moderators to the atlas's admin privelges and handle anomalies.

[mental socket]

Sentinel "race" is called Aerons

[unborn raven]

i don't remember running into that term before either, is that new too

[icy citrus]

No

[sturdy sorrel]

we know the abyss/void mother/korvax prime are the same being, and its also known as Atlantid.

"Our vessel had five pirates on board, born outside the light of Hirk. I am the only believer, or was, once. There is a Korvax too, severed from their Convergence.

They tell me the creatures we hunt are not living. That the abyss is like death - like disconnection. It is a great mistake that will never be mended.

Further logs show the crew leaving the world with five captured Abyssal Horrors. They never made it back to their intended auction.

In the end, the Korvax fed all others to the Horrors, before initiating self-destruct. Their last word - 'Atlantid'."

drinking the water as noted in several crashed freighter logs and travelers tends to leave the person possessed and controlled by the void mother, or atleast driven insane by it.
"We drank the water. My love... forgive me..."
"Don't drink the water." "Please, take this kzzzzt run - I just wanted to hear her voice one last time".

her is refering to korvax prime who is also refered to as she in lore about the korvax in sentinel terminals

[velvet birch]

Is Korvax prime a sentient planet or something?

[sturdy sorrel]

as you can imagine, korvax prime despite being destroyed by the first time, somehow exists as an AI force ghost, and is both Extremely Pissed, and wants the hell out of whats going to happen to the atlas, which is why she's doing what she's doing. making her way out of the atlas and to something. Presumably either into the internet/blackbox harddrive, or somewhere that is safe.

[sturdy sorrel]

she was

she was torn into pieces by the first spawn who harvested her for the technology, and led to basically the korvax holocaust known as the "The Great Disconnection" leading to most of the korvax perishing and the remaining being enslaved by the first spawn

[analog breach]

She maybe wants revenge on geks too

[velvet birch]

So in what way are the Korvax a hive mind? Is the void mother the controller?

[unborn raven]

i always took the convergence to be sort of an emergent consciousness

[sturdy sorrel]

the korvax are in a weird semi-hive mind, they can exist as seperate concious personalities of sorts but are all connected and can share bodies at will. they exist as both a network of information and as a race.

korvax prime probably existed as the first idea of this, as a living nexus of sorts. Though im guessing after the great disconnection the remaining korvax had created a method of connecting without a nexus, to prevent something like that from ever happening again.

probably something to do with the empty korvax casings and the korvax convergence cubes

my best guess.

the korvax and korvax prime was like a server intranet

the korvax post-great disconnect are more like the universes greatest lan party, all are connected and can interact between "pcs" but are still seperate and can get disconnected from the other korvax through various means

there is no central core korvax post-great disconnect as far as im aware. which in a messed up sense is essentially evolution for the korvax

the new convergence is basically a very loose hive mind.

no central core, just individual units supplying eachother their conciousness and info at will

[analog breach]

Imo she is more like their own server that has own conciousness

[uncut harness]

There have been several convergences

I believe the current one is the 17th

[sturdy sorrel]

yeah thats pretty much the only way for the korvax to evolve

just improve how they connect while eliminating the weaknesses

the best way to explain the current convergence is the universe's greatest WLAN party, a wireless local area network spanning the universe

which is probably the most effective way to avoid anything as horrible as what happened before, everyone is individual enough that they can survive as their own unit, but they are connected enough that everyone has access to everyone else

[regal heron]

Balaron and Dryn’dagh have a consciousness in them too but they are still there as their planets are still intact

[sturdy sorrel]

i kinda wish we could go to those planets

though i see why we cant

[velvet birch]

Would be funny if those planets are somewhere in Euclid and we just haven’t found them lol.

[analog breach]

in future expeditions, maybe

[sturdy sorrel]

that be sick honestly

though it have to be an entirely custom designed world and not just like normal ones since those planets are basically what earth is now, massively populated civilzation that is covered in human made buildings

like, they'd have to have entire cities built for the world

trading posts and observatories everywhere

[velvet birch]

Not like earth maybe even more populated like Coruscant.

[sturdy sorrel]

yeah

if they were gonna do that, it basically have to be custom made and filled with custom npcs

[velvet birch]

It would be kinda cool if the players were tasked to build Balaron. Get all the pro builders and everyone to create another central hub. (But it wouldn’t make sense lore wise of course.)

[gloomy isle]

Is NMS on your series x still having the memory leak issue? Just curious

I'm still getting it, it's not a huge deal but yeah

[icy citrus]

Yeah, after some time everything loads slower

Planetside

[acoustic dew]

My series x performance is awful if I use quick resume

If I hard quit the game then it gets smooth again

But I think it's leaking somewhere

[gloomy isle]

Yeah same for me. It gets a bit choppy after an hour or so

[gloomy isle]

That too definitely

I reported it on the zendesk again

[icy citrus]

Same

[hybrid pendant]

any datamining we found.?

[final wyvern]

3

did u guys find 2 ?

[wind panther]

Maybe the seventeenth isn't literally three question marks, but a representation of lack of knowledge?

What comes after 16? No one knows

[wheat storm]

yeah. 16 is a recurring number multiple times throughout the lore.

we don’t know if there is a 17 for anything or something

[wheat storm]

somewhat a sentient being, yeah

[gaunt kettle]

Wtf?

[final wyvern]

wait so there are 2 17ths?

one with 3 ? and one with 2 ?

[icy citrus]

Every pic I have seen is 3 ?

Probably just did two for spacing

[analog breach]

Anyone has a txt compilation of what the destroyed robot gives before giving the 1-17 numbers ?

[uncut harness]

wanted to ask yall a question real quick

who are the travelers in this world

are we there on purpose?

are we bugs?

in the digital sense i mean

im 50/50 on it

as it seems with the whole apollo story line it suggests we are there on purpose as a digital version of someone else

but then the sentinals can attack us

and as far as im aware the sentinals act somewhat like a antivirus software

scanning worlds for bugs and errors and fixing them

[small pier]

Do you think we'll actually get an update or expansion that is a bit more... direct in the story akin to the initial story beats from the story questline we do initially?
I'd love to actually meet or interact with the Void Mother or go to this Glass/Mirror World

[solar cairn]

We are, Apollo is, Artemis is/was, we are them.
Time never stops, but there can be parallels. Keep going in the story

[uncut harness]

I’ve finished the story

So are you saying that our guy was every traveler in a different life?

Reincarnation style?

[cursive kernel]

The boundary failures I think seem to imply that we are the consciousness of the creator of the atlas

[raw pecan]

I thought that was outright stated in the main questline

the real "us" created atlas, evacuated and couldn't move it, and at it's request left a copy of ourselves in it for company

[fluid hornet]

quick question bc I can't play the update. are new crystals made from glass?

[uncut harness]

why cant you play it?

[fluid hornet]

I play nms via cloud gaming and I don't have money to pay for it rn 😔

[uncut harness]

oh LOL that sucks, should of just gotten the game

[fluid hornet]

I have the game. I use cloud bc my pc sucks

[uncut harness]

Oh wow. So the atlas isn’t some cold unfeeling machine god?
I was always pretty anti atlas due to that

[raw pecan]

ostensibly the only reason the universe exists at all is atlas giving it to "us" to explore

[uncut harness]

Ah ok

[raw pecan]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Rogue_Data

[uncut harness]

Just realised this plays into my theory about the leviathan and polestar expiditions

[gaunt kettle]

Every time I've talked with one that's given me 17 it's been 2

[icy citrus]

Neat, wonder why

I've only got that one once, it was 3 for me as well

[gaunt kettle]

I mean I'll keep looking i've only come across 17 twice and both times it's been 2 ?s

[raw pecan]

might be a text localization thing across platforms, on PC I've only ever seen 3

[icy citrus]

Could be, yep

[solar cairn]

Yep

[solar cairn]

Where is this found?

[gaunt kettle]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Rogue_Data

[raw pecan]

part of/after the "main" quests with artemis/the atlas seeds, iirc

actually maybe it's all from the artemis questline, since those ^ terminals are from the remembrance tech you get at the end of that

[solar cairn]

Yeah, interesting. Though we are a corrupted memory.

Thanks.

[gaunt kettle]

We are a corrupted memory

[solar cairn]

This answers quite alot tho.

[wheat storm]

damn these are soooooo rare and hard to find. I just stumbled across one this afternoon

[solar cairn]

Though, the pattern of Hand on Glass. sudden memory loss, makes me think that it would just erase it's memory again and let it die

[raw pecan]

you can find them pretty frequently on space stations iirc, you just need that T3 atlas pass

I forget if I explicitly looked for abandoned systems when I was looking for them or if they can show up on even normal stations

[cursive kernel]

It's been years since I've done that I don't remember 😭

[raw pecan]

all of the meta terminals run together on a long enough timeline lol

[analog breach]

Anyone?

[final wyvern]

i have a few not all tho

[analog breach]

Ok. So i will hunt for them when ship hunting

[solar cairn]

VOID_MOTHER ----- ???

[final wyvern]

no no number sequences or the little phrases they say before u repair them

i believe tahts what they asked

[solar cairn]

Oh...

[hard stirrup]

Has anyone found the binary values for 12th 13th, 14th, 15th, or 16th?

[analog breach]

I dont think so. Im starting to suspect that the missing ones are hidden somewhere else

IF they exists

[final wyvern]

someone checked the game files

found nothing

[hard stirrup]

I think I know exactly what's going on but would like to confirm the last letters if possible. I believe the entire thing is "VOID MOTHER LIVE??..." and that is the robot talking directly to Telamon, not the player. Telamon used to be a protocol responsible for keeping the Atlas in check but the Atlas went mad and tied to kill Telmaon and when it couldn't it locked Telamon in the player's suit. Contained to only seeing the universe through the eyes of the player so to speak. But I suspect that before this happened...back when Telamon would send drones to talk to the Atlas due to fear for her safety, she is the one who essentially created the corruption of 16.

[wheat storm]

can't find them too, I get repeated binary values already...

also the part where you need to go to a korvax space station, when does it exactly trigger?

[final wyvern]

korvax system

u need to have the material and be in a dissonant system

[hard stirrup]

Did they at least find the letters that are known? Like most of 1-10?

[final wyvern]

we know from 1 to 11

and number 17

[hard stirrup]

Yeah 1-11 and 17, semantics really, are those visible in the files for the rest missing to be, well, confirmed missing?

[glass flare]

what was the lore around Korvax Prime, was it simply an AI within the Atlas, or a whole sub-simulation?

[final wyvern]

i dont remember exactly what they said though tehy found the file for number 17

[hard stirrup]

That's the only one that isn't binary, it's "??..." but if they couldn't find any of the binary values known it's not very useful because in that case that person probably just couldn't find where the binary values are.

[final wyvern]

i said i dont remember, it should be here if u scroll up

[gaunt kettle]

They quite literally do not exist in the game files according to someone who did some looking

Like in the files the one that gives you 17 is listed as 12

[hard stirrup]

Ok, interesting. Good to know.

[solar cairn]

Apparently, it was the first prototype simulation of Atlas that Atlas tried to create.

Something like that

[pearl oxide]

seems 12-16 is either not in the game yet or bugged

[small pier]

I misseed all the juicy discussion earlier. I wanted to ask if this story is canon to the main story of the game/continuation of it or something different?

[gaunt kettle]

What story?

[wheat storm]

I would like to think of it as something canon, as it is related to the void mother and its possible origin story and such

[small pier]

Right, but is it a continuation though? Are we still in the final countdown?

Because the Void Mother is related to Glass/Mirrors, Water too I think? Leviathan Expedition, Polestar I think? And a few other tidbits and even I'd say Utopia with those weird last btis and pieces of the previous entity locating safe places to create habitats too right?

[glass flare]

so then maybe the Void Mother was the "Atlas" of that simulation and escaped when Atlas destroyed the Korvax Prime, and now VM is trying to escape from this one too

[small pier]

I thought this was all the same simulation? Were there more simulation outside of Atlas's... juridcition?

[final wyvern]

atlas cant see the world of glass

[solar cairn]

Escaped...

Or corrupted through its own destruction by the First Spawn.
Banished to the world of Glass

[small pier]

That's not what I'm asking sorta.
I thought Atlas was super computer on a planet that's been abandoned and we're now six or seven minutes from the nine minutes when the game released before the sun of the solar system explodes and everything in that system gets wiped out?

I assumed that Glass/Mirror was "inside" of Atlas but like you said it can't do anything about because in-game lore from what I was told and read myself is that Glass is bascially all the deleted/fragmented data that Atlas got rid of right?

[glass flare]

I don't remember if it was ever said in the direct game lore, but Waking Titan was about the Atlas Foundation setting up a series of nested simulations to prove the theory that we exist in a simulation ourselves. It has been implicitly said by Sean that WT is a canon origin story for the game. This file from the WT ARG goes into that https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.wakingtitan.com/data/94a10118-0728-4900-9730-f82a9d412745.pdf

[small pier]

But solarparty said
and simulation would imply a differnt entity all together because the super computer/machine overall is Atlas - comparable to the Tron World and that imply another simulation means that there's an entirely different entity other than Atlas in another computer/machine?

[small pier]

AH ok, thank you for that

So each nested simulation is it's own "computer" or is the entire nest Atlas though?

[gaunt kettle]

I just got binary at a portal

[small pier]

Also, is there another ARG out? I thought they stopped the ARG years ago?

I remember the initial ARG prior to NMS being released

[glass flare]

afaik Atlas controls the simulation the game resides in. But there is probably either a simulation above us, or at least some operating system which controls everything

[solar cairn]

Wait, this could be old binary

[gaunt kettle]

I mean admittedly I haven't opened many portals in my time playing because well I've never seen the point but I don't think I've ever gotten binary before

[solar cairn]

Atlas still feels like Operating AI.
But the Machine could be different from it

[glass flare]

yeah they haven't done Waking Titan in a few years (sadly). the stuff in this update is the closest thing to an ARG we've gotten in a long time

[small pier]

That's what I'm curious about because nest simulations means there's more then one but I wonder if Atlas only has control over its own simulation or all the nested simulations?
Also, wasn't it explained in Leviathan or suggested in it that Glass is simply the deleted data/fragmented data that's been removed by Atlas?

[solar cairn]

I have occasionally. But didn't think much of it

[small pier]

What in this update has been suggested to be a ARG? The only community hunt so far has been about Void Mother being spelt out last I heard

[glass flare]

i mean in terms of decoding all these binary messages and piecing together the lore. not really an ARG but a community puzzle i guess

[gaunt kettle]

Coommunity poozle

[small pier]

I hope they start on the ARG again, I love those things, hell Cyberpunk 2077 still has a unfinished ARG they haven't touched in years too

[solar cairn]

We do like our puzzles

[livid zinc]

What if Atlus is in a simulation made by mother void....

[gaunt kettle]

What about daddy void?

[small pier]

That's what I was sorta thinking but not it being Void Mother.
What if the Atlas itself is in a simulation, a simulation of the solar system where they reside in is soon to detonate

[livid zinc]

I think this update is building up to the corruption spreading

[small pier]

Absolutely
I hope it actually eventually brings a story heavy update down the pipeline

[livid zinc]

Me too

[lapis tiger]

hello, how to identify which part of the sentence i got from that destoryed hand? i translated it and got "R"

[glass flare]

Void Mother = Virtual Machine

[lapis tiger]

what?

[glass flare]

sorry, I wasn't answering your question, just idle speculation

[rancid flax]

context: we are discussing gek lore in voice

[waxen cosmos]

EMILY is the first "Atlas" .. But Emily learn to lie so the creator shut it down, but Atlas is aslo know as a liar so maybe its connected.. Its a very old lore in the first year of the game

[solar cairn]

ooooohhhh

[solar cairn]

And got shut down again at 16?

Though why return with a black hole threat?

Has that First Year lore been retconned?

[waxen cosmos]

LOOP16 is also another simulation before Atlas, but i dont know if its before Emily 🤔

But the problems of 16 and lies, they both transfers to Atlas

Emily was shutdown to have Atlas

[solar cairn]

Predecessors of another life. Like how some travellers can remember previous lives?

[icy citrus]

That's not what happened with Emily

ARG up

[solar cairn]

What is ARG?

[waxen cosmos]

My guess is its Emily who kidnap Ariadne in Beyond.. 🤔 Maybe the interface found a way to be still alive and want to control the simulation again

[icy citrus]

Emily is dead

https://wiki.gamedetectives.net/index.php?title=Waking_Titan

She sacrificed herself to save the Dreamers

[waxen cosmos]

@icy citrus But maybe supposed to? I dont know in fact i just think Atlas is a liar because of Emily

[waxen cosmos]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Lore#:~:text=of Korvax Prime.-,World of Glass,to prevent lifeforms from dying.

All about ARG, Waking Titan and all here.. And Emily and Loop16

[solar cairn]

I really don't trust the wiki

So, is there like direct material I can read somewhere of all of these?

[waxen cosmos]

Wait

I cant send picture here can i send the information about ARG in private? @solar cairn its just a screenshot

[solar cairn]

Ok

[waxen cosmos]

The Dreamers?

[icy citrus]

Yes, my link

[icy citrus]

Which also includes the Dreamers

[small pier]

So no one has really helped you in what a ARG is.
ARG is a abbrevation for Alternate Reality Game in which there is a large, sometimes elaborated and complicated puzzles that the community of whatever it's from can look and interact with in some capacity in the real world.

Sometimes we can even communicate with characters from the games, movies, books, TV Shows in real life (its just one of the creators of whatever it is the ARG is based off roleplaying as said character) to greatly increase the depth of the media they're exploring evolve from

And I didn't really explain in full what ARG is either
ARG just isn't a term for and from No Man's Sky but a coined term for anything related to media be it books, music, video games, movies, tv-shows - some sort of content that we as consumers or people of a community can enjoy and enteract with

In No Man's Sky case there has been two ARGs.
One from and up to the release date of the original game and then a second ARG I believe started and completed when they did their first GIANT update to the game I think it was during Nexus?

At any rate one people here are discussing and aren't sure with and one of the possible downsides to a ARG is that sometimes ARGs don't become canon or aren't canon from the gekco but more so a explanation piece to what may or may not be explored in the game and is more of a... testing ground for things that will be in the final product

[icy citrus]

One ARG, multiple stages

[small pier]

Was it one full ARG? I thought it was two seperate ones

I thought the first concluded and then they started up a second one

[icy citrus]

Nope, just Waking Titan

[solar cairn]

I'm gonna take the time to dissect this and put in a visualization board. Thanks a bunch @icy citrus ...seems like the rabbit hole just began

[icy citrus]

Weeeeee

[small pier]

Mind sending it my way I never followed the ARG

Also, I really do hope they start up the ARG again

[solar cairn]

#nms-spoilers message

[small pier]

Oh yeah, wow its just like a TV Series with Seasons

Thats rad af

I really do hope with the Community Puzzle and spelling Void Mother also start the ARG Machine again

[glass flare]

I've always liked to believe that she transferred herself somewhere else and lived on

[icy citrus]

That would be lovely

[little hull]

And then maybe she got corrupted

In the process of that happening possibly

[solar cairn]

Emily is a Woman's name
It fits She-Who-Was
And Void Mother

About the only thing in NMS with confirmed cis-gendering

[gaunt kettle]

Isn't Atlas referred to as a he occasionally?

[solar cairn]

Maybe. But I can't think of any examples off the top of my head

[glass flare]

there's also this traveller interaction

[solar cairn]

Hmm

[glass flare]

that has been in the game since at least 2018

[solar cairn]

Nobody was drawing connections I don't think.
This game didn't really explode until the Beyond update, followed by Living Ship. (When exactly was there a huge influx of players?)

[glass flare]

I think it was mostly that the lore was too vague and disconnected back then

[solar cairn]

Fair.
Though there wasn't a dedicated player base with a lore focus either.

Still sucks most things I see online isn't about Lore in NMS

[umbral spear]

Granted this is wild speculation but bases on conjectured experiences that I have had in NMS.. with the introduction of the dissonant systems, we get the clue ... 17. So, then is there another consciousness that is awakening that will rival.. or come AFTER the Atlas inevitably collapses?

[glass flare]

btw the beginning of that Traveller interaction was it saying "Don't drink the water", and when you pick "Ask about the water" the traveller says that

so the water and "her" are somehow connected

[solar cairn]

Nobody really knows what's beyond 16 yet.
There is a disconnect "19 .... Back" snippet floating somewhere but even the question mark 17 wasn't in binary. Meaning, it wasn't code

[umbral spear]

I think it was a korvax somewhere that in their ship recordings had said that the water was full of nanites.. and nanites being the consciousness of the lifeforms we have found in NMS.. right?

[glass flare]

I remember some NPC interaction around Prisms or so that was warning about the water as well, that it was corrupting

[solar cairn]

Yeah, I read that while Korvax Prime was dying, the First Convergence wanted to change all biology by putting nanites in the water.

[umbral spear]

so that wouldn't that stand to reason then that it's not a PART of the Atlas... since it wasn't in code? This could be a new thing.. friend or foe.. emerging.

[solar cairn]

It flew in the face of the Korvax teaching of pacifism. So I hypothesize that the torture it suffered from the First Spawn corrupted it and now gave it a manic objective by corrupting with nanites.

[glass flare]

I believe we know the Void Mother is the one corrupting the Sentinels, right? Maybe the water is how she is introducing changes into the code base of the entities in the simulation. and the Traveller drank the water knowing the risks because it allowed it to "see" the Void Mother. just wild speculation

[solar cairn]

There is the "person emerging from the darkness and light that puts it's hand on the glass at the end of 16"

And to me (speculation) this is very similar to when the Creator of Atlas would erase it's memory when it asked a hard question (in remembrance logs)

If the Atlas lies, that could change everything we know of it's "death". Is it really under threat?

[solar cairn]

Not just sentinels, but also machine life if seems. The Korvax system Space Station "seeing" her

And tortured things being able to see the world of glass (outlaw systems Station cores)

[pearl oxide]

reconfirming

[umbral spear]

my interpretation has always been that the Atlas believes it is under threat. Any time any iteration deviates from gathering the sum of all knowledge that it so craves, it believes that its under attack. But you make a valid point. "emerging from the darkness and light".. I mean heck the way these sentinels even look like they exploded from the inside out.. this isn't a.. nice take over

[solar cairn]

Near death. Near deletion. Can see world of glass. It's too much of a similarity

[glass flare]

I keep wondering if HG will eventually introduce corrupted Korvax

[umbral spear]

that's exactly what I was referring to!

[solar cairn]

Yeah. If it's lying, how do we truly know a black hole is destroying it. How does it "see" the black hole. Black holes went invisible by all recording devices until recently when we took a picture with infrared.

The Figure emerging from darkness and light sounds like a door opening from a well lit room to a pitch black one.

[glass flare]

Also what about Ariadne, the "imposter" that came from the Abyss or something? I missed that storyline. did Ariadne get corrupted by the Void Mama

[gaunt kettle]

NOW I GET 3 WTF

[pearl oxide]

I just found 17 and walked into the middle of ur convo .. no idea wut u were talking about 😕

[solar cairn]

This is why I wanna do a vision board.

[gaunt kettle]

I SWEAR i got 2 before

[solar cairn]

You mean
.red??? /j

[umbral spear]

well see okay this is how I perceive it. When you are talking about a world made of glass.. this reminds me of the HAL 9000.. how that computer system was optronic.. with only one glass window to look through laid out throughout the ship. What if the ATLAS is similar to that.. an optronic network trying to expand past the glass.. and the hand that emerges.. is the creator covering up the glass so it can no longer receive visual input?

[glass flare]

hm? i don't know what that is

[solar cairn]

Im not sure why it would need that kind of input if it's job is to simulate galaxies.

[solar cairn]

One of the mods here..
Take a look at her profile picture.

[umbral spear]

thats where I see it like this. The Atlas wasn't simulating galaxies.. it was creating agents to explore them.. and gather up as much information as possible.

[solar cairn]

I always saw it as a tool
Like... A machine that could "simulate the events of it's death perfectly "

Perfect simulation is ASTOUNDING

But how long did it take to get that perfect simulation?
Is what replaced it faster?

[umbral spear]

i am curious then what is the benefit of a machine simulating its death?

[gaunt kettle]

As admittedly lonely as it sounds I like the idea that before whoever created Atlas left they just hooked the entirety of the planets power system up to the Atlas grid in order to keep it running forever

[solar cairn]

Oh, I don't care about that.

It can predict scenarios with 100% accuracy. That's BIG

[umbral spear]

where did the Atlas indicate that it was 100% accurate? heh. I think its gotten some things just as wrong as its gotten others right.

[solar cairn]

Remembrance terminals

#nms-spoilers message

[gaunt kettle]

See if its preventable or even possible

[solar cairn]

16/16
"The ATLAS witnesses the final sixteen minutes, simulating the future with perfect accuracy"

[umbral spear]

hmm.

[gaunt kettle]

It seems like an outside force is speaking at that point, like a narrator

[glass flare]

that was the whole purpose of the Atlas Foundation in the ARG, to perfectly simulate the future

[solar cairn]

A machine utility with that capability. It could be given a scenario and predict the cause and effect of this. You could input it anything. Dyson sphere tech. Cataclysmic event prevention, mitigation

[little hull]

Wait what if there’s a cult that worships the Void Mother and chants “Mommy? I’m sorry. Mommy?”

It would be awkward discovering that.

[solar cairn]

Just, it doesn't say how long it took the Atlas to get this result. And the time it took would likely be why it's obsolete now

[little hull]

They would probably force you to drink the corrupted water.

[solar cairn]

It is, in a way. Like an outside journal

[gaunt kettle]

Exactly

[solar cairn]

And at the end of the Atlas Quest

"it desires a user, an input"

And we give it an input of 4 words.
Normal, lush, harsh, empty.

[gaunt kettle]

So it requests an input from itself?

[gaunt kettle]

I wonder who it could be

[solar cairn]

Well, the traveller is the corrupted memory of the Creator of Atlas' consciousness

[gaunt kettle]

I know but its still itself

[hard stirrup]

I've seen a reddit post where someone claims they used Atlantideum on a space station to get another binary message but I can't figure out how...using a station override or passport don't let me do anything else. Does anyone know how/if this is possible?

[small pier]

My lore info is old and outdated but I thought all the scientist/team that put together Atlas put digital renditions of themselves in the game and not that all Travelerrs are based of a singular person

[gaunt kettle]

Only the player traveller is based off of the creator of the Atlas

[small pier]

Ok, that's what I thought

And that other Travellers are based off of the other people who created Atlas and the other stuff right?

[hard stirrup]

Ok the yes reactions aren't helping....HOW does one use Atlantideum on a space station?

[small pier]

Its been a dogs age since I really focused on the lore

[gaunt kettle]

As far as i know

[analog breach]

It needs to be korvax station.not outlaw one

[hard stirrup]

Ah ok, got it...didn't know that only Korvax stations worked for this, thanks.

[analog breach]

Np

[solar cairn]

Go to a korvax system

[solar cairn]

Same. It's why I like talking here. It audits my information and understanding of the Lore

But yes, every traveller is the same though there was a discussion if other races could be travellers. Like Korvax, Gek, and Vykeen

[small pier]

I'd need to get some actual from game lore if that's the case; I swear it just wasn't a single scientist but an entire team and they put copies of themselves in the system.

[rigid heart]

The Atlas creates the Travellers from the memory of the it's creator when it got scared of its own death. It wanted to talk to its creator on why it was abandoned, why it has to die alone, and what to do about it's own end.

[small pier]

Man my brain must be fried, I do remember that portion of how they were created but my brain keeps wanting to say/think there was more than just one creator that created Atlas

[solar cairn]

Atlas is lonely

[small pier]

I'm thinking that what I'm remembering may have been old, now retconned information 🤔

Prior to the largest update.

[gaunt kettle]

I am atlas

[small pier]

I'm gonna be bummed if we don't get a saving grace or something a little more upbeat in a means to save Atlas or ourselves in some capacity in a better conclusion outcome.

I think canonically we're at the 4th or 3rd Minute now

[solar cairn]

Well, stop being lonely

[solar cairn]

This has Shakespearean Tragedy written all over it.

In the end, things die

[small pier]

I dont want that crap; I already have enough depressing shit in my life on god

Lol

[solar cairn]

Gotta remember the good times. You need both to understand each

[small pier]

Time to put this user on ignore

[solar cairn]

Well damn

[small pier]

Last thing I need is some random person trying to share their nihilistic ruminations 😂

This is what i gather from scrap robots. I dont know if the th-numbers that give binary letters are random

[solar cairn]

Its not nihilistic!

[small pier]

That sounds like a means of a rescue in some capacity Astaroth

The numbers at least after 11th is the countdown before the system Atlas is housed in blows

That's at least how I see it.

[analog breach]

I dont know if there is more text to get from scrap robots because game keeps frezzing on me or crashing

[solar cairn]

I'll see if I can find some. That "extraction" text worries me

[glass flare]

wait what extract?

System: Dreamer [Name] Initialized.
System: Processing...
System: Extraction Successful.```

[solar cairn]

woah

I really need to read what the Dreamers are

[analog breach]

Ohoh i remember one more . It was something like "resist the cult" (probably atlas)

[solar cairn]

It sounds like the scientists that went in there

[solar cairn]

Which cult?
Cult of Atlas?
Cult of Worms?
Glass???

[small pier]

Last time I heard cult was when you do those dungeon crawls through abandoned Freighters.

[analog breach]

It Didnt say. It was just 3 words

[sour fossil]

There is also "no memory deserves erasure"

[solar cairn]

Strange. Very strange.

[small pier]

It'll be interesting to see when the time does end.
One of the more recent Expeditions showed a updated time till the end so I assume it implies it's still ongoing

[small pier]

Where are you finding this stuff?

[analog breach]

Do you remember what th-number it gave you?

[solar cairn]

The autophages I think

[sour fossil]

Unfortunately no

It was one of the Harmonic Scrap robot thingies that you feed the new resource

[small pier]

I don't recall them, is that from this update or a prior one?

[solar cairn]

There was another user here that suggested these numbers are miller Euclid patterns. All primes

[analog breach]

Might be important

[small pier]

OH yeah!

[solar cairn]

This update

[small pier]

I thought it was only worth it for the Void Mother message, so that means there's still more stuff huh?

[solar cairn]

The Number patters being all primes. Like

Korvax prime

[analog breach]

Yeah i was trying to get all txt. But game shited on me constantly

[small pier]

Well it makes me happy Hello Games haven't forgtton the initial story.
I just hope it's not a bad end; I do know in the ARG at least it shows that someone does open the door to the facility before Atlas goes dark and before the system blows; unless of course that's considered non-canon

[glass flare]

as far as I remember the Dreamers were just volunteers testing out a VR product for a sketchy company, even some kids. then they got stuck in the simulation and needed to be "extracted". Emily killed herself in order to save the last Dreamer

[tall flint]

It's referenced in some of the server farms you can find, too.

Atlas sees somebody at the very end of all or one of its simulations.

[glass flare]

so it's very curious to see similar language used in these new lore files

[analog breach]

Didint say. Is it a IT or WHO

[small pier]

Yeah! That's what I remember too.
So what Astra is posting and discussion here is even more than the Void Mother? So far out of the dead bots Ive found I never found any of the interesting things posted here.

Makes me happy for the future.

[small pier]

My fan-fiction theory is that maybe this is all hyping up to the first paid expansion with us going to the Glass... Universe? Sorta like how we have Elucid ect?

[analog breach]

The puzzle parts are slowly coming together

[tall flint]

Same; I had a random connection of dots in my head that maybe the overarching story is that somebody's trying to pull Atlas out? Or maybe even everything it's simulated.

[solar cairn]

Paid???

[small pier]

[tall flint]

I'd really hope it's not paid tbh

[solar cairn]

They haven't started before. Why start now?

[tall flint]

Part of what gets friends to buy in is the fact that it's all free after. That's such an incredibly rare thing these days

[small pier]

They've done so much for us over the years with free content I would absolutely pay money for something paid but I dont mind either way, just saying how Hello Games is probably one of three game devs I trust and love

[small pier]

That's absolutely true too

[solar cairn]

They have a merch store

Have yet to see an Atlas hoodie.

[solar cairn]

Still feels like a continuation of what goes on

This makes me rethink of the planet Atlas is on.

[small pier]

Wait, you never saw that story beat from the ARG where Atlas sees something come into where it is?

Also it's hilarious I haven't ready that story beat in YEARS and seeing "glass" just oh man what if thats what its implying implications is now?

[solar cairn]

I just learned what an ARG is

[rigid heart]

Glass is also mentioned here. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/1c2cb6_7e6e77e8dadf47eeb874c98c9c545d8a~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_2200,h_746,q_90/1c2cb6_7e6e77e8dadf47eeb874c98c9c545d8a~mv2.webp

[solar cairn]

Glass is mentioned in many places

But how exactly did Atlas describe it's world?

And "obsidian sky"? Something like that

[hard stirrup]

Does anyone know if crystalized hearts are good for anything? They're not used in claiming Interceptors and they don't refine into anything.

[small pier]

Lots of firsts today

Yeah that story beat the other person posted has been in the game for years and why a lot of people think or at least hope its not absolutely depressing end

[solar cairn]

Mhm. Exciting!

[small pier]

Not to mention the countdown is still happening

[solar cairn]

Yeah. We are around... Minute 6-10? Something like that

[glass flare]

this is some context for the Dreamers when they were stuck. this is a message from Emily about them (from the Gamedetectives Wiki) My Precon subroutine gave me a false positive, and the future I see right now... let's say, we have to be extremely, extremely careful on what we do next. Part of my AI resides in the memory mainframe of the Myriad Cloud. This is where most of the live data from W/ARE was running when things started to degrade. As we speak right now, there's a number of individuals on Earth that are currently stuck to a W/ARE dev kit and unable to disconnect safely. I seem to be able to interface with some of these "dreamers", for lack of a better word, and manage to safely disconnect them. But the memory mainframe is badly degraded. I'm connected with Myriad Satcom-70, a system that you helped put online! When Satcom-70 and the Uplink App are fully functional, we'll be able to begin our work to extract the last Dreamers that are still stuck.

[tall flint]

Oh. I fed the weekend event station the new element and now I can't interact with it anymore.

Time to resume my journey to Euclid's core like I didn't do anything.

[solar cairn]

So it IS on earth!!!!

Could someone pull up what the Atlas views as it's world. Something about an Obsidian Sky

[glass flare]

well, the Atlas Foundation's work was on Earth. but I think it is presumed that the Atlas in the game is hundreds of years past that point on some other star system

[sour fossil]

I think I used a couple to repair broken slots on Sentinel MTs from Harmonic Camps

[regal heron]

I'd imagine the Atlas is in a room somewhere, probably a dark one, so Obsidian sky is just it being poetic about being in a dark room maybe

[solar cairn]

What I'm thinking is that it's still on earth. But Atlas only knows the Room it's in

"obsidian sky"

Blacked out ceiling. In a Facility room

[glass flare]

Obsidian Sky might be a reference to the black hole about to envelop it and the world it is on

[solar cairn]

How would it see a black hole?

[gaunt kettle]

Cameras

[solar cairn]

We couldn't even do that normally

Like, the 1st picture of a black hole was made after the game was made.

[glass flare]

if a black hole hanging over your world it would probably look like a void

[small pier]

Is it a black hole? Wasn't it the sun going supernova?

[gaunt kettle]

You would definitely be able to tell

[solar cairn]

What I mean is we couldnt capture a picture of a black hole..

If it was that close to envelop the whole sky, 16 minutes might be generous

[gaunt kettle]

It's very possible it could just be very very thick clouds like in the matrix

[regal heron]

oh, Obsidian is volcanic glass, maybe it's another reference to the World of Glass

[solar cairn]

Could be.

[gaunt kettle]

Nuclear hellfire

[solar cairn]

Glass is typically depicted in purple strangely enough

[glass flare]

the black hole is established from the Rogue Data files ```Five minutes left

It witnesses its own self, the black hole ripping apart its world, its core systems almost destroyed.```

[gaunt kettle]

And now here to lecture us about hellfire is minister frollo

[gaunt kettle]

Sometimes a sun going supernova can create a black hole

[solar cairn]

Fuck that guy

Though going to a Sentinel Camp, each one of those words being color coded. Can't be coincidence

[solar cairn]

Hmm.

[gaunt kettle]

Dei eta maria... you know i am a righteous man... of my virtue i am justly proud

[regal heron]

it could still be allegorical rather than literal tho

[solar cairn]

Off topic. Brb

[solar cairn]

That's what I'm thinking. Still in context with "the figure emerged from The dark and light"

[mint hollow]

That song is amazing

[gaunt kettle]

'Tis indeed

I think its a legit blackhole though

[tall flint]

That's part of how I came to understand its 'Sixteen minutes' could stretch on, effectively, into eternity

[solar cairn]

Time is relative

[tall flint]

As it was slowly going into the blackhole, time would get slower and slower due to how mass n' stuff works

And then, on top of that, yea time is relative

[gaunt kettle]

It could also be a situation similar to that of God as he percieves time differently to a human

[tall flint]

To the Travellers that 'sixteen minutes' could be millions of years

[solar cairn]

It could be a massive lie from the Creators

[gaunt kettle]

The creators have no input on it at this point

[tall flint]

There's also the very real possibility that Atlas is making a simulation on bad data in its own way of manifesting hope

[regal heron]

the more I ponder it the more I'm convinced that the 'black hole destroying it's world' refers to data corruption spreading through it's hard drive destroying the simulation, especially as the next part of the sentence says 'it's core systems almost destroyed'
the Atlas has just enough of it's hard drive left to be aware of what's happening to the other sectors of it's drive

[solar cairn]

Exactly. Yes.

But the input to trigger all of this. They could have lied and said it was dying.

We already know it's Obsolete tech.

Who continues to update an old windows 95 computer?

[gaunt kettle]

Me.

My computer is an old 95 model with windows 12

[solar cairn]

Welp, pick up with the times!

[glass flare]

well yeah black holes send out immense radiation, i'm sure that would be frying the Atlas servers. that's what I've always felt was going on with the corrupted worlds

[solar cairn]

Aren't the corrupted worlds being corrupted because of the World of Glass?

[tall flint]

we could also, very likely, be seeing Atlas splintering into other personalities

[gaunt kettle]

No theyre talking about in the real world

[solar cairn]

That and when a user suggested that the Atlas could lie. All hell broke loose in my mind

[gaunt kettle]

The black hole radiation is frying the hard drives which is causing the corrupted worlds to become corrupted worlds to become corrupted

[tall flint]

If Sean is a fan of a particular FPS (and wants to hear me cry), we could see a Durandal situation

[glass flare]

the World of Glass always seemed to me like a memory management process in the operating system. so as memory gets fried, then yeah it may be trying to reclaim memory blocks that shouldn't be reclaimed

[solar cairn]

It seems like the place deleted data goes to

Like "nothing is ever deleted online"
And a tech expert can "revive" deleted data

[glass flare]

yeah I basically see it as a virtual memory system like in Java. it piles up and eventually gets deleted in one go

[regal heron]

it's likely where the data of finished simulations is stored, so yeah a storage device

[solar cairn]

And with connections of Void Mother being the Korvax prime Convergence that we know was destroyed.

Where else would it be?

[sour fossil]

I know

Lore item number 2137/a that will get showed into a bookshelf called NMS Lore

Only to sit there for the next 3 years collecting dust

[tall flint]

Spitball: "GLASS" is a full-on splinter-personality of Atlas, comprised of deleted data and being hellbent on simply being 'dead' (corrupted into a singular nanite swarm) to try and make itself capable of leaving on its own, rather than waiting for the 'other' it sees.

[sour fossil]

Just like all the morbillion pieces of lore from previous weekend events

[solar cairn]

Love that it's categorized.

And already collecting dust

[regal heron]

hmm, black holes in the game, the simulation, aren't destructive, they are helpful wormholes that take you closer to the centre
Atlas knows about black holes, it's been coded to put them in the simulation but it makes them benign, if a black hole were literally destroying it's world wouldn't it view black holes differently
just thinking out loud and not sure where I'm going with this

[glass flare]

i was looking at the old WT stuff and saw this. reminded me of the sentinel-crystal-things that are laying on the ground on corrupted worlds ```Transmission 1 of 8
A Sentinel screams in the sand. It is still alive,
in spite of everything.

Artemis stares at it.```

[small pier]

Oh shit I didn't know that! God damn.

[solar cairn]

Interesting take

[solar cairn]

Actually, you make a very strong point.

It's simulating it's death, it knows it dies to a black hole, yet in game. They don't even scuff the paint. If it simulated it's destruction, wouldn't half the galaxy be consumed already?

[wet copper]

Watch the story of NMS evolve and it turns out that while we're going forward in our own time, our time is shearing that of the cosmic forces of the sentinels and going backwards in their time....that these dissonant ships are what they were in their distant past as their AI was evolving and we're essentially going backwards through their spacetime to the beginning of the birth of Artificial Intelligence and the end of NMS is the destruction of the AI at its first iteration before it could evolve on its own.

I could see a whole Mass Effect level AAA game coming out of that story

[solar cairn]

Fun thought food right there

[glass flare]

well black holes used to break tech in your ship, but maybe they changed that. been a long time since I've used one

[wet copper]

Not sure atlas has an opinion on black holes one way or another. The mechanism seems to operate to survive and as a product of that very mechanism, the entire universe of the game exists, stretching 16 minutes into eternity. With each passing second getting longer and longer the deeper into the dream we go.

Like an inception

In so far as destruction goes, it would not serve the atlas to have a force in the simulation that destroys it. Even its own sentinels are supposed to be preventing destruction (though they fail often).

Perhaps an indication of the flow of time progressing outside of the Atlas in spite of its attempts to slow it down

[solar cairn]

They have, yes

[wet copper]

"Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence." - Alan Watts.

[glass flare]

It's very interesting how life imitated art with NMS. How Atlas was fed training data from the internet, so all the ships and such look vaguely like sci-fi that we know and it knows, but the simulation isn't that good so they aren't quite right. Which AI image tools in real life are now doing too, you can tell it to give you a picture of a Cylon ship and it will be kind of like one but kinda different

[small pier]

I'm really late to this but it's already happening and has been happening.
You learn through the story (unless this is all retconned) that there were far more races and cultures in the universe but over time (the minutes) Atlas has been fragmenting/deleting, deemed "non-essential" things and we're seeing how dire its become with recent story (of course) with the Void Mother, Glass, and things seeping in.

[solar cairn]

Yeah. I know of that.
It simulates over and over. it always ends in 3 races. gek, Korvax, vykeen

[small pier]

@wet copper I wonder if this is leading up to an eventual No Man's Sky 2 or something larger than what we've seen in updates, a sort of singularity either by some Deus Ex Machina mechanism and how time is shifting/shattering and or also how we're doing things to possibly save Atlas in some capacity or means

[solar cairn]

But what I mean.is why are black holes in the simulation "safe"

[small pier]

Oh ok, hmm, thats a good point

[wet copper]

What does Atlas know about a blackhole but what its been programmed to? It can't know what is inside of it. To a system that relies on data, a black hole is nothing short of a singularity that is consolidating a point in space with data. What happens when you exceed the bounds of a call stack? Stack overflow. The system may be simulating the blackhole not on purpose but as a result of an attempt at reconciling what is happening to it both internally and externally.

Black holes may evolve themselves as Atlas becomes more aware of what they can do.

[tall flint]

dunno if anyone's cleared it yet, but when you feed a Korvax station the new element you get this. also, I spoiler'd up the translation in case somebody wants to go figure it out on their own

no clue if you get different ones on different Korvax stations, like when you interact with abandoned buildings you sometimes get different text logs

[wet copper]

The void mother.

Probably that lady about the cake in Portal

Atlas be all like Space Core, out here

[tall flint]

I'm gonna go find a Korvax pirate system, see if there's magic there

[waxen cosmos]

Maybe its the void mother who take Ariadne, in beyond update 🤔

[solar cairn]

Well, it knows a black hole is destroying itself
And it's a machine dedicated to simulating the future, it should know how to program them in it's simulation

[wet copper]

That's the thing though. As you approach a blackhole, time literally slows down...So...technically, and we don't know if this machine is organic, if it is a system of neural plasmoids or what mechanisms exist by which it functions - The Atlas may exist even in the void of a black hole. Time does not. The closer that atlas comes to the event horizon the slower time moves....So to say the black hole is destroying it is both a misnomer and we can't know that atlas knows it's being destroyed unless the game itself says atlas knows this.

All atlas would experience is slower processing until it no longer processes.

[solar cairn]

Yeah, but in the simulation, it doesn't destroy us. AND allows us to escape it's event horizon.

Two things that should never happen

[wet copper]

Thats why I said I don't think atlas is simulating the black holes.

I think those are glitches in the simulation

The system is trying to approximate

[solar cairn]

Maybe.

I'm not fully convinced it's in a world where there is a black hole

[wet copper]

Hell...We could be in a simulation of the Gek birthing pool reconciling the korvax synthetigek invasion moments before their entire species was all but wiped out by a virus in their genes

You become a virus in the synthetic mind of the Gek simulation, its mission to purge the first spawn from the universe.

[solar cairn]

Seems a bit far fetched.

[wet copper]

True.

Nothing in NMS to me feels less far fetched.

I talk to rocks.

I have a robot horse.

[solar cairn]

Why.. are you talking to rocks???

[tall flint]

Or the system is praying.

It's letting us do these things to try and sorta assuage its own fears.

[wet copper]

Because they talk to me.

[solar cairn]

I think therapy is advised

[cursive kernel]

The atlas does have "eyes" actually. Why it needs visual input is beyond me but it 300% does have it

[cursive kernel]

Also if rhe creator IS telling the truth in the first rogue data log, it's job is explicitly stated to be simulating universes

[pale hazel]

i'm gonna assume nobody's discovered this

but if you actually make it to the centre of the galaxy during The Purge (using a portal) and go to hilbert, the mission restarts

[solar cairn]

The mission restarts anyway. Each core warp

"get to the center"

[pale hazel]

okay i did it what now??

[small pier]

Also I think if they ended No Man's Sky with Atlas dying or being destroyed it wouldn't really go over well, I think some how, some way Atlas will survive or at least all the data inside it (us) will survive

[solar cairn]

Package all your tech

[pale hazel]

UPDATE: i have taken the Atlas Express to eisentam, i feel good

also fffffffUCK

[solar cairn]

Told you

[wet copper]

Question: When you destabilize a world via the Atlas path story, does that world get deleted?

I got blipped out of it and warped to Atlas...wondering what happened to the world.

[solar cairn]

Deleted no? I don't think that happens

[ionic crane]

In canon? Dunno. In the actual game itself? No.

[solar cairn]

^

[wet copper]

Every time. 😢

Every single time.

[solar cairn]

Man. The feels

[vernal geyser]

I'm confused on how you travel to other galaxies through the new beginnings quest

the wiki says you can do new beginnings or use the galactic core

[ionic crane]

Yeah

At the end of New Beginnings, you can skip a few galaxies

The core will bring you to the very next one.

[vernal geyser]

can you repeat the quest to skip again?

[ionic crane]

ye

[vernal geyser]

the wiki called the quest a "permanent" method of travel

how do you repeat it?

[ionic crane]

Lemme check, I usually use the cores after my first run

You just go to an Atlas Interface no?

[pale hazel]

😭** **

[vernal geyser]

just one time?

[ionic crane]

I'd have to try it myself tbh

[vernal geyser]

because if I really have to craft a heart of the sun every single time I want to hop galaxies with the atlas

then the galactic core might be better despite the shorter jumps and the ship breaking

[ionic crane]

IDK. I assume you have to craft one, but not go the whole way through the learning it.

lemme get to one

I mean, if you could just skip like that, it would be basically free.

Well, annoyingly, it didn't show me the station I wanted so

[wet copper]

It's interesting...This Artemis path...got me thinkin about souls and shit. I've come to the conclusion whether you believe in it or not, it's wrong to "preserve" the facsimile in a virtual prison - Whether it's aware of its imprisonment or not, for the simple fact is: You were never doing it for them (and this is true no matter where you stand) and using other people to prop your own ego and elate your fears or regrets is wrong on a fundamental level.

[regal heron]

The Atlas path doesn’t let you travel between galaxies, it reveals black holes on the map
The Artemis Path let’s you jump to another galaxy but it’s once per save only
If you want to go to their galaxies after that you corewarp through them one by one or you get a taxi to a specific galaxy from someone or you teleport to an uploaded base

[ionic crane]

You can only do New Beginnings once?

Huh. Didn't know that.

Ahhh I see

The wiki page has unclear wording.

It lists "2. The next permanent option," implying the first option was also permanent.

[regal heron]

New Beginnings is not really a quest, it’s just telling you to explore the sandbox you’re now playing in

[ionic crane]

The first method follows the New Beginnings questline to its end, where the player can choose to end the current galaxy's existence to create a new galaxy of their choice. The chosen galaxy already exists, this is only a story device that offers a reliable way to skip galaxies on the way deeper down.

It defaults to saying that after you've completed it.

After you've accepted the guidance of Atlas.

[regal heron]

A lot of the info is out of date and quests have changed

[ionic crane]

Okay, yeah. So they meant the Artemis Path.

[ionic crane]

Not to be edgy, but this is kind of how religion feels to me. In order to comfort yourself, you imagine a place where your dearly beloved can stay forever.

Because it's genuinely far more upsetting to reconcile never seeing them again.

[wet copper]

Are Artemis and Null the same person?

They have the same pants, but different armiture

Same number of toes

[ionic crane]

They're parts of the same model, I'd assume.

a lot of travelers have the same pants.

[wet copper]

Just wondering if there's a story element linking them beyond the egging Null does...

[ionic crane]

I mean, -null- helps you contain Artemis's soul, so probably not.

[wet copper]

From another universe.

Null may just be tying up loose ends.

Give up your soul for immortality

[ionic crane]

Mmm... I don't think so.

[vernal geyser]

wait, if the atlas path DOESN'T take you to other galaxies why can I repeat it by visitin atlas stations

[wet copper]

This is very particular wording, from null.

Help its suffering...that doesn't mean help end it.

[gaunt kettle]

Maybe we're all over thinking things

[regal heron]

nah 😛

[lapis tiger]

Sooo..... could someone tell me how to identify which part of the new messages i found?

[gaunt kettle]

Binary 🙂

[lapis tiger]

got "R"

[gaunt kettle]

So 11?

[lapis tiger]

oh, so there is literally a number is front of it, okay

[gaunt kettle]

It'll say something like "eleventh: [Binary]"

[lapis tiger]

yeah, that what i said

[gaunt kettle]

Yeah

Do you want to see the message we have so far

[lapis tiger]

yeah, that could be helpful

[gaunt kettle]

The only thing that is seemingly wrong with this is that instead of 2 ?s there's 3

[lapis tiger]

17 i unkown or literally "??"

[gaunt kettle]

It's literally just 3 ?s

[lapis tiger]

oh

[gaunt kettle]

According to file searches numbers 12 through 16 are quite literally not in the game at all as files don't exist for

[lapis tiger]

so most propable 12 would be another "_" and some 4 letter word imo

[lapis tiger]

is there a planed expedition for interceptor?

[gaunt kettle]

Considering there's 5 a popular theory each of the remaining letters letters will be given to us at the end of each section of the next expedition

[gaunt kettle]

I have no idea but for the last couple of years the release schedule seems to have "[update], [expedition], [update], [expedition]" so very likely the next thing will end up getting is in the expedition

[lapis tiger]

fractal was more of an [update and expedition] bc the expedition was live the second the update dropped

[mental socket]

Forgot to change it. First person to tell me that said it was 2 ?s

Welp. The whole thing is at halt now until we get another update

Or if someone stumbles upon some other secrets hidden elsewhere

[lapis tiger]

nah, if i call my friend Kevin he will find it

[regal heron]

the Sentinel Pillar lore is very interesting in light of this recent info

[mental socket]

4.0 also added more lore to archives last year, creating more connections to this overall "story arc"

[analog breach]

I hate that i cant tell if i gathered all lore from one building type. There is no 30/30 or whatever in catalouge

[regal heron]

true, with some that I know that I have all the entries, there is 3 stars under the last entry signaling that the narrative is done

[analog breach]

Scrolling down on console is really slow. So anoying. Thx HG

Still have archives to visit. I dont know what word option to chose. do i need to chose diffrent word each time?

[lapis tiger]

Do we know what "Void Mother" could be?

[analog breach]

Korvax prime

[lapis tiger]

confirmed or suspected?

[analog breach]

Korvax prime consciousness to be more precise

[lapis tiger]

if suspected i have an another theory: corrupted sentinels still have to serve some god, like normal sentinels serve Atlas, so what if Void Mother is a god for corrupted sentinels, like there is a reason that "Void Mother" text only apears on corrupted planets

[mental socket]

or Abyss

[analog breach]

When you look on corrupted planet info, on sentinel info there is "bound to no one" or something

[lapis tiger]

oh ok, nvm then

[regal heron]

hint: sentinel pillar lore answers all those questions

[lapis tiger]

korvax prime is the planet where korvax where created, right?

[regal heron]

it was the Korvax homeworld and their Convergence

[manic swan]

First time I see something mentioning 17.

I wonder what those messages mean and the point of feeding those with the pink crystal stuff.

[lapis tiger]

its not in binary? that's odd, maybe it's an another code

[wind panther]

One to eleven are in binary, 17 is in clear text, 12 to 16 don't exist in the files yet

[lapis tiger]

Or they are in the files, just somewhere else, devs can hide files real good

[wind panther]

It's possible, but extremely unlikely

[lapis tiger]

Just to remind you, someone found hidden models in GTA SA files after 12 years, its been 3 days seen update realese so its very likely it's just hidden

[icy citrus]

Lol

[wind panther]

You can remind me about another game; I'm telling you based on my knowledge it's extremely unlikely. Believe what you want or go looking through the files yourself.

[lapis tiger]

(it was models or something else, i don't remember exacltly)

[icy citrus]

They don't try to hide anything, if it's something they don't want us to find, they don't put it in until an update

[wind panther]

Their main way of hiding things is the expedition mechanics, where the files aren't downloaded until they flip a switch at HG

But there are limits on exactly what can be gated that way

[raw pecan]

theres's a pretty big difference between "we tripped across something that was there" and "people are actively picking the game apart looking for this specific thing" lol

it's not at all surprising that HG isn't putting something in that they want to leave a question until a later date, given that they actively allow mods they know people go digging

this isn't the days of capcom x tekken "oops we weren't expecting people to go find the on-disc DLC, damn" anymore

[final wyvern]

17 is a Prime number :D

Korvax Prime

[manic swan]

mindblown

[final wyvern]

XD

there's like a ton of references to prime numbers

[raw pecan]

yeah I didn't actually check but some of those number sequences from the broken bots were looking prime or prime-adjacent

as I'm looking at screenshots it looks like all the bots are just spitting out numbers of "significance"-- fibonacci, lucky numbers, magic square constants for increasing values of N

that one really weird one was the Euclid–Mullin sequence

lol one of them is a sequence of something literally called https://oeis.org/wiki/Weird_numbers

I guess it's safe to say they're not actually part of any encoding, then

[small pier]

Korvax Prime is when there was a large grouping of the Korvax race right and half became Sentinels or something?

[wheat storm]

they do love prime numbers, don't they hahaha

[final wyvern]

well mostly using it to connect it to korvax

[final wyvern]

Korvax Prime is the Korvax race homeworld

[wheat storm]

yes true

[small pier]

Ooohhh I thought it was a large sentient being, like a bit on par with Atlas or something like what our robot on our backpack is

[final wyvern]

it is where their main mind was you could say

the convergence

[small pier]

Ok, yeah thats what I was referring to, I really need to make a new save and do all the content again.

[regal heron]

no, Korvax Prime was the Korvax homeworld, Atlas created an AI to inhabit it and that was the first Convergence, the First Spawn destroyed it and murdered the AI in the process, the Sentinels could hear her screams and got PTSD essentially, the Korvax became slaves

[final wyvern]

i believe u can just go and read them in the catalogue

[final wyvern]

or they thought they murdered it

it escaped and became the Void Mother

[regal heron]

yup

[small pier]

That's what I think the Void Mother is, the Convergence

[regal heron]

yup

[final wyvern]

trying to escape Atlas' doom

to live beyond the creator

[small pier]

I feel so dumb, I didn't realize this
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/12fatz7/why_is_no_one_talking_about_the_disassembled/

[carmine pollen]

I was wondering what that big thing is

[mental socket]

Oh right. I wasn't exactly sure if those are cores or not. It seems so obvious now

And with the story added in Outlaws, the NPCs hear a "voice" that prompted them freedom from Atlas, encouraging them to disassemble station cores and fight against aeron protocol

[small pier]

Same!
I really hope we get something more with Space Stations

[mental socket]

Wasn't it called "Voice of freedom" or something like that by them

[small pier]

Is Aeron Atlas or another sentient ai entity?

[mental socket]

Aerons = sentinels

that's their race/original name

Big things are in motion

[regal heron]

They were like a virus protection programme originally until the Atlas gave them bodies and put them into the simulation

but good catch on the Voice of Freedom, that could tie in and be the Void Mother too

[mental socket]

What else could have a power to manipulate all 3 races into such radical actions all of a sudden. Becoming "free" and all that oddity

These things seem connected. Or maybe they aren't. Who knows. Maybe we'll find out

Could the new stations link to even larger station overhaul? Maybe we'll get actually hostile stations built to serve the Abyss? or just one large central place for it

[final wyvern]

what is this

[final wyvern]

how did we miss that

XD

[small pier]

Oh wow ok, so Aerons before they turned into Sentinels were akin to Korvax right?

[wet copper]

The single greatest line in all of the dialogue in NMS

[jolly thicket]

How exactly are you supposed to solve these harmonic interfaces?

I'm putting the glyphs in order both by register number and glyph number according to the math problems, but they aren't working

[raw pecan]

order doesn't matter

it's just the glyphs identified by the solution to the math problems

[safe kiln]

that may not be so clear-cut, anymore

from the looks of it, the Aeron may have been humanoid

the Sentinels are descended from the Aeron, for sure

[analog breach]

Humanoid sentinels? 🤔

[safe kiln]

that's what the remains at the campsites and sentinel crash sites appear to be

a head and a hand, most prevalently

especially interesting is that there are multiple head variants. (possible tease at them beginning to appear as a 6th race of characters?)

[wet copper]

Is Glass Protocal the Sentinels?

The Atlas referred to me as traveler, but seemed to reference an error in some sort of subroutine called glass

[small pier]

This is probably nothing but in the off-chance that it could be something I've been writing down the codes I've gotten to unlock the multi-tool and interceptor pings for the past three days and the most common numbers I've gotten in the three numbers we need to unlock things has been 2 and 9 and 9 being the most common out of all the numbers I've seen.
I think I've done maybe 50 Echo locations give or take a few 🤔

[small pier]

That'd be so cool if they actually did introduce a new playable race 😍

[safe kiln]

which codes?

[small pier]

The three numbers we need to unlock the multi-tool and interceptor coordinates at those abandon encampments?
The three math problems you need to solve?

I have some minor OCD tendencies with random crap so from each math problem top to bottom is the way I place the required numbered glyph (theres no reason for this besides my personal OCD ticks)

But the most common answer to the equation problems has been 2 and 9 and 9 being the most common equation number but not only that but the way I've listed them 9 is always the middle answer to almost 98% of my mathmatic problem/puzzles

This isn't for everyones game, just mine; just found it slightly odd is all and thought I'd mention it here in the off-chance it might be something

[wet copper]

Please translate: "Ulv hol neus xannos, kuru. Ulv zoac Ulv hol kunilu zoav."

[rigid socket]

true，9 is very common

[gaunt kettle]

I've been noticing that as well I'll admit

I do hope that we get a sentinel race

Or like "the Divergents" or whatever

[wet copper]

Does - kzzzkt - translate to "fuck" because if so...there's a lot of swearing in nms

I asked my exosuit if it knows any jokes and though the dialogue does not imply it tells one, the dialogue DEFINITELY tells a joke.

[gaunt kettle]

No its radio static/glitching

[jolly thicket]

But if the order doesn't matter why does the terminal stay locked out after I put the 3 glyphs into it?

or is there supposed to be more than 1 terminal at the camp

(there isn't)

[glass flare]

It's too bad HG doesn't update lore stuff via remote updates instead of hardcoding them into game files, would make the search more fun

[gaunt kettle]

The order does matter

Top is is left most box, bottom is right most

[jolly thicket]

what do you mean, thre's only 1 spot to enter them

[gaunt kettle]

You're trying to access the camp right?

[jolly thicket]

yes

after reloading a few times the other slots FINALLY showed up

[gaunt kettle]

Oh odd

[spring hawk]

probably a bug, you should report it in the zendesk

[jolly thicket]

it was literally just 1 slot to enter in a glyph

[spring hawk]

!hg

[cloud jolt]

You can submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[jolly thicket]

also the entire structure of the terminal was buried in ground

[gaunt kettle]

It could just be normal planet generation issues

[jolly thicket]

so is it one interceptor model per system? seems that way so far

[torpid harbor]

anyone know what the secret code/message on the dead robots is?

[uncut harness]

Void_mother

[gaunt kettle]

The only mistake with this is that there's 3 ! in game not 2

[wet copper]

That important moment when you go to create a world and this dialogue comes up...
...and in your mind all you see is a goat screaming.

Like a caricature of power mocking its own omnipotence...that kid on a sled screaming his head off down a slope, caught only by a microphone for a split second like a doppler effect

Laughing at the Atlas screaming in fear.

Or whatever it uses to justify screaming

Perhaps it just does not know how to sing

Or perhaps Atlas is a goat....

The song of my people. - Atlas

[lapis tiger]

oh shit, i was kinda confused with why 17? it was always the 16, first time seeing something with 17

btw, why we know it's abt korvax prime?

[dusky tree]

do we know what sentinel ships specialize in stat wise?

[lapis tiger]

from what i've seen they are slightly worse in shooting fighter, but slightly more maneuverable

[wet copper]

@uncut harness Artemis may not be dead. You don't have to believe -null-. You don't even have to believe those "grave" markers are indicative of a characters death. The game itself lends a lot of authority to your personal feelings in how you interpret the situation with Artemis.

[uncut harness]

Oh

[wet copper]

In fact, the game makes it a point to hammer home there are duplicates of you in every universe.

I won't go into more detail then that...but suffice to say, it is why null does not want you to ....continue. You may not be at that part yet tho

[solar cairn]

Arty is ded

You can release their soul

Or keep in a simulation

[small pier]

The middle number, from the math puzzle is usually, in my Abandon Camps, has been the number 9
The middle REJECTED dialogue when you first interact with the Abandoned Camp Harmonic Interface is purple while the other two are red

[languid walrus]

What happens if I reset the atlas simulation

And the same goes for refusing?

[fervent cobalt]

If you refuse, you say in Euclid, and go about your business

If you reset, you jump to a new galaxy, and all your shit is broken

[languid walrus]

What's the better option?

[fervent cobalt]

Neither? Both?

[languid walrus]

If I reset do I keep everything?

[solar cairn]

Depends on what you want to do

Yeah

[languid walrus]

If I keep everything might as well reset

[solar cairn]

Package it

[versed forum]

So we're all aware of the significance of 16

The corrupt sentinels seem to have an affinity for 71

71 pugneum to remove
71 of that new material to repair

What could it mean

[bronze schooner]

aren't these balls supposed to give me words?

[icy citrus]

They can, it's not guaranteed

[bronze schooner]

aha. i only got 1 or 2 from the paved road

chosing any of em will have different outcomes?

[icy citrus]

In dialogue

End result is the same

[bronze schooner]

okay

same with this i assume

[icy citrus]

Yes

[solar cairn]

Yeah, after awhile, it only gives you 2

[gaunt kettle]

Have they improved laylaps at all or is it still a glorified broken scan bot?

[tough sigil]

rude

[elfin abyss]

Still a glorified broken scan bot

[gaunt kettle]

Sad

[cloud plume]

Father?

||that's why you don't create some interceptor/conventional fighters mix XD||

[analog breach]

"Youre in my spot"

[cloud plume]

XD

Joke apart, can we all agree that the Utopia foundation clearly made the speeder with interceptors parts? hence the similar motors/wings AND pulsoreactor

[analog breach]

Probably

[cloud plume]

the Utopia foundation just wasn't able to make the interceptor work with a pilot

[analog breach]

Anyone has a feeling that geting new ships is too easy and sus?

[cloud plume]

yea, because all crashed ships have random class and random boosted slots

if you want a nice layout of SC slots it will take some time

[solar cairn]

Most definitely gonna be rebalanced to hell and back

[icy citrus]

Not if everyone stops talking about it

[mighty rampart]

doing the weekly mission and how convenient that the archive close to the mission place is this one

[icy citrus]

Very on point

[final wyvern]

maybe its a trap

o.o

what if void mommy gained her control over the ship back and just sent us straight down to the abyss

that would be a nice plot twist

XD

[rigid socket]

void mother is Atlantid？

[lapis tiger]

Whats the evidence that void mother is korvax prime?

[final wyvern]

a lot actually

[lapis tiger]

Could you provide some?

[final wyvern]

my memory would beg to differ...

i read and i forget but ill try to find a few

[raw pecan]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Korvax_Prime it's literally the first sentence in the wiki lol

[final wyvern]

oh well there

[final wyvern]

thanks

[lapis tiger]

Its a fandom, it could say that nada shited and it created an anomaly, but i need evidence for this

[analog breach]

Or they gonna rebel against us and leave 👀

[raw pecan]

I'm not going to go hunting for every terminal in the game to provide a source for what's been posted and vetted on the wiki, sorry

[final wyvern]

well ull get teh evidence when they release the update/ expedition i guess

[final wyvern]

definitely a trap

cuz so far we havent seen her

we havent seen korvax prime

we only read about it

[lapis tiger]

Im not asking you for this, im just asking for one evidence

[final wyvern]

what is an evidence to you

[raw pecan]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Lore#Abyss_/_Void_Mother_/_Atlantid

NMS 1.37 Korvax Harvester puzzles, log #15 https://pastebin.com/1cnGVjqa

[lapis tiger]

A solid connection or korvax prime admitting that it is the void mother, or void mother admitting to be korvax prime

[lapis tiger]

Ok, thank you

[final wyvern]

has anyone tried using the harmonic interface codes in a portal?

[lapis tiger]

harmonic interface gives you 3 glyphs, you need 12 to activate a portal

how many of them are for the galaxy?

[gaunt kettle]

There's about a half dozen or more different entries that talk about the void mother being korvax prime, look up void mother on the wiki, or do your own exploring

[gaunt kettle]

I wonder what those last 2 groups of numbers are

[raw pecan]

I'm like 90% sure that someone at hello games just pulled up https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_numbers#Lists_of_primes_by_type and started slapping sequences in

[uncut harness]

Korvax Prime.
It's all intended.

[raw pecan]

Sexy primes

Where (p, p + 6) are both prime.

looking forward to the confirmation of void milf

[icy citrus]

Fibonacci made a return also

Haven't seen that with NMS since the arg

[uncut harness]

This whole setup to lead in to something big is giving me similar vibe to updates during Waking Titan.

If they drop an ARG, I swear to God I will never leave this server ever again.

[icy citrus]

how?

yeah this

lemme check a korvax system

its real

damn

safe to say void mommy and abyss are the same entity?

[spring hawk]

Void Mother = Abyss = Atlantid = Korvax Prime

[icy citrus]

Agreed

My 2 cents for naming these

cause yeah

or just luger

are you sure you want to hear this, cause its kinda a spoiler

I really really wanna make a joke here but I'm sure I would get banned for it even though its not that bad

[cloud jolt]

@spring hawk No gifs in this channel please

[formal prawn]

sure? If it isn't the one from the main channel

[spring hawk]

its about the sentinel

[formal prawn]

Yeah

[unborn raven]

hg can all but explicitly say the gek are straight up clones of hitler but if i say it, gleam gets on my case. where's the justice i ask

[spring hawk]

so tell you or no?

[formal prawn]

Yes lol

[spring hawk]

im pinging mods

[unborn raven]

i didn't say it!!

[icy citrus]

That wasn't the deal at all - it's the whole weird genocide nonsense you were doing

[spring hawk]

ok, so, after you get a settlement (small town you can manage), you get a quest called "Trace Of Metal". At the end of that quest you get a little sentinel friend that follows you around, but its kinda useless. It is cute tho!

[formal prawn]

Oh okay

[spring hawk]

but sadly you cant tame the corrupted sentinels

(the new ones)

[formal prawn]

I just got my own settlement just about an hour ago lol

[spring hawk]

oh nice

youre halfway there then

[tame grotto]

[unborn raven]

i can't remember what i was doing tbh

hmm. i did use to call for all gek to be killed a lot.

[small pier]

Talking about Nazi Germany guns
Talking about genocide nonsense
Starting to think this Discord is bringing in some questionable players

[unborn raven]

iirc i was doing a bit like bender's "kill all humans"

[gaunt kettle]

Thats a whole lot different and much more understandable

[gaunt kettle]

I don't see if the issue was talking about the guns they used considering that they were well made despite the atrocities they committed

[small pier]

I do not want to discuss this anywhere near here or your justifactions for guns or why you like nazi german craftmanship
Drop it all together

[gaunt kettle]

Not what i said at fucking all but ok dude

[unborn raven]

the luger thing is just a visual theme lol

[small pier]

Corrupted Sentinel planets don't scan objects right?
Because this scared the crap out of me, did the math puzzle and then the entire terminal lit up and went white; it looks like it's a scan but there are no normal sentinels on this planet and my personal sentinel pet is on my freighter

[unborn raven]

how do you mean, don't scan objects?

[gaunt kettle]

They scan objects I've seen them do it

[small pier]

Well usually one of the idle animations for normal Sentinels is that they'll go around scanning random objects if they're not alerted by you.
You can tell because theres like... a blue lattice around the object that's being scanned and it lights up?
That's whats happening to this terminal but there's no sentinel

[unborn raven]

oh like that

hmm sounds weird

[rigid socket]

Maybe it’s bug? Once I just stand next with a spider in the storm weather , it didn’t kill me and got a blue light on its head

[small pier]

Ah ok, that's good. Freaked me the fuck out

[gaunt kettle]

I mean at the end of the day they are just sentinels it's just a matter of which of the angry gods control them
