Alien: Who do you serve? Which Baron is master of this place?

The Traveller's appearance, its manner, the way it speaks... all of them feel archaic, like nothing I have heard before.
They repeat their question, threatening to draw their Multi-Sword.

#

I read the manuscript. It appears to show a mathematical proof that the concept of 'goodness' does not exist.
As I read, the Traveller stares at me. They ask how we can possibly go on, knowing that this is true. I do not know.
We exchange gifts and I move on, troubled by what I have read.

#

You read these logs, don't you? You can see my words now, even if I cannot speak them.

Good. That is how it starts. The infection of language, of thought, of ideas. We have passed so many corrupted things. Planets with unnatural phenomena, individuals who do not belong...

Before this finishes, there will be no concept of you and I, no concept of us and them. We shall all scream as one.```
#

SCENARIO: A Traveller falls from the sky. They are discovered on a distant planet, a signal sending you to find their ship...

ANALYSIS: You don't belong in this world, do you? What are you, reader? From where do you watch us? From where do you judge their works?

I feel it, each time you save... I smell it, each time you seal us within that awful darkness. You might think you are real. You might think your plane is a higher level of reality.

But don't you understand? Don't you see the secret, yet?```
#

in case I didnt make it obvious enough, the point was that No Man's Sky is not bound to its game and that it encompasses all universes, including ours and by extension other game universes

uncut harness
#

I mean, the game is just a dream of an AI. If the AI were to decide that the Normandy was in this universe then it is.

tame shell
#

And then Atlas said: "Let there be Mass Effect!"
Amen.

mighty rampart
#

it almost quite literally decided that

#

if you read the dosimeter readings

vague oriole
#

That's the boundary failure lore right?

#

I don't think ppl get it but

#

It's a boundary failure

#

It talks about how the atlas' creator was uploaded to the simulation

#

And the subroutine supposed to eradicate anomalies within the atlas

#

In fact canonically, an infinite universe contains anything and everything you can think of

#

It's the jojo infinite deaths thing again

vague oriole
#

Is that from the new bible: origins update?

mighty rampart
vague oriole
#

Oh yea i i didn't see the ones above lol

mighty rampart
#

as travellers are also from other universes, sometimes not even resembling NMS's universe

vague oriole
#

Travellers are basically anomalies in the simulation

mighty rampart
#

some space encounters sometimes deviate a lot from NMS's style too, and when the normandy popped in it had the same icon as you see for them

vague oriole
#

But you're wrong that's how the lore is

mighty rampart
vague oriole
#

Did they really exist though

prime spade
# vague oriole It talks about how the atlas' creator was uploaded to the simulation

Boundary failures mostly cover the lore of Telamon, the sanity-checker process that's meant to monitor Atlas's behaviour.

You're thinking of the Remembrance lore where you learn the Travellers were based on a scan of Atlas creator.

My problem with the Mass Effect lore, is it creates an unbounded setting. Until now there were certain recurring questions, and the answers existed within the established canon. While technically the Atlas could rewrite the universe any way it sees fit, at any time, it generally does not, and times where it has rewritten things represent major epochs (The erasure of the 4th race for example, it's progressive self deification etc)

Even when we see universes that turned out grossly different, they are still recognisable (ie. the traveller from a feudal timeline). This is important because for people who've been trying to figure out the lore and where it's going, could at least rely on the fact the question resides within the established framework. Like the abyss represents some system, or errant mechanic of the simulation or processes.

With an unbounded universe, that answer could be literally anything. Like Perhaps the Abyss is The Flood from Halo leaking in? - At that point trying to keep the lore straight is an exercise in futility

vague oriole
#

Did they actually arrive from another universe

icy citrus
#

I dont see why the Normandy being in NMS is such a big deal; if you don't like it don't use it.

mighty rampart
#

the answer IS literally anything, NMS universes are unbounded, how are you realising it now?

vague oriole
#

Nms is a broken buggy simulation

#

Anything exists in it

ocean wyvern
#

Could almost be like some questions can't be answered; which is really integral to the concept of simulation theory anyway.

mighty rampart
#

when I just showed examples of stuff before the Normandy

prime spade
mighty rampart
#

except please scroll up

ocean wyvern
#

That would also be how infinite universe variety would work

mighty rampart
#

not only they have diverged so much they referenced our existence and the existence of other games and media

vague oriole
#

The patterns repeat the patterns repeat new patterns emerge

prime spade
# mighty rampart except please scroll up

I already responsed to that. Even the most divergent example of a universe is one where a traveller came from a world that was basically "NMS but feudal' and we can't be sure what pointi n the timeline he represents. We don't know the minutia of the history of any of the timelines, maybe all universes have a point in time that is functionally feudal

vague oriole
#

This single historiographical flux explains it

mighty rampart
#

so yes NMS can really have everything as canon

#

Mass Effect, Halo, are all part of its simulations

ocean wyvern
#

Nah it's the difference between a universe where plants on earth are blue versus one where earth doesn't exist and the universe is basically a giant amoeba

tame shell
#

somebody used the atlas to play ME during break way back, and the atlas only found out now and was like
"hey, cool ship, lets add it in"

but thats just a theory
a nms theory /s

mighty rampart
tame shell
#

but seriously
idk if its even canon in the first place
i could speculate for ages but id have no idea in the end

mighty rampart
#

also I dont remember if they said Waking Titan is canon or not

vague oriole
#

It's not

#

At least not in the universe we are experiencing

mighty rampart
#

no I mean if HG said whether or not this is part of the lore

#

if they said nothing then it possibly is

#

there is a Dreamers title in the game

wraith wyvern
#

Anyone mind helping me out with the beach head expedition? want to get the mass effect ship fast
i have everything to warp im ready its just how and where

mighty rampart
#

oh also the Remembrance terminals do reference the ARG too

vague oriole
#

Or maybe what the entities in the simulation know as the atlas is in fact Loop16

mighty rampart
# wraith wyvern Anyone mind helping me out with the beach head expedition? want to get the mass ...

Today in No Man's Sky i'll show you how to speedrun the Beachhead Expedition, the second No Man's Sky Expedition so far. This one is a lot quicker, but there is still a 'most efficient way' to do things as ever, and that is my specialty. So sit back relax and take it in from this No Man's Sky Expeditions Guide 2021 for NMS.

No Man's Sky Origins...

▶ Play video
wraith wyvern
#

yeah i get that guys

#

but where and how to get to the system

#

the video says nothing

#

just going there

#

theres no help

#

how do i even get the exepdition?

mighty rampart
#

after going there you should get a mission prompt to go to a particular waypoint

candid lark
#

new save

#

choose expeditions

mighty rampart
#

you didnt even start the expedition?

candid lark
#

it will put you in the community systems

wraith wyvern
#

i guess not @mighty rampart

mighty rampart
#

start a new game, select expeditions and watch that video again

wraith wyvern
#

the expedition thing isnt coming up

#

i do not want to start a new game. no.

mighty rampart
#

that is the only way

wraith wyvern
#

really?

mighty rampart
#

expeditions is a game mode

candid lark
#

you have to, that is the idea of expeditions

wraith wyvern
#

i dont think so

mighty rampart
#

you start a new one for every new expedition

candid lark
#

its an entirely separate game mode

wraith wyvern
#

welp

candid lark
#

its a list of challenges

prime spade
# mighty rampart sure if its about the multisword guy but what about the George R Price quote? or...

If pop-culture references have to be taken literally then World of Warcraft is set in the same universe as Earth because it's hard to find a line of dialogue that isn't a callback to some pop culture references 😉

Telamon addressing the player is interesting, but still doesn't violate the narrative purity. Telamon understands their universe is a simulation and, confronts the player/traveller with the simulation hypothesis that they seem to exist as a set of rules higher than their own universe, and the ground they stand on is probably no more real than ATLAS' world.

But the Simulation hypothesis still doesn't mean "Every video game can bleed over", that isn't the Simulation hypothesis, it's the plot of Wreck-it-Ralph!

wraith wyvern
#

that means i gotta farm everything again sheet

candid lark
#

no you dont

wraith wyvern
#

oh?

candid lark
#

you dont need to farm everything

#

you concnetrate on only getting what you need for the milestones

#

nothing else

wraith wyvern
#

well duh dude

#

thats my point

#

thats gonna take a bit

candid lark
#

you are chasing milestones, pur and simple

vague oriole
#

It's not tho

#

You can literally do it in a couple hours

#

Wait

candid lark
#

watch the guide, its a lot easier than it looks

wraith wyvern
#

i get its easy

candid lark
#

sohail did it in 25 minutes yesterday

wraith wyvern
#

talking over the internet it like talking to 12yr olds who tell me everything but the question ive asked lol

mighty rampart
jolly thicket
#

this expedition isn't like the last one where you specifically had to wait days before you could make progress (not counting the first few days where the community goal wasn't unlocked yet)

mighty rampart
#

think about the space encounters, what if any of those are also not entirely part of the game but came from a completely different "simulation"?

#

we just dont recognise them

hoary sedge
#

what question wasn't answered coma ?

prime spade
mighty rampart
#

lmfao SAO

wraith wyvern
#

eh well really looking at it i guess it doesnt really look that good

mighty rampart
#

yeah I believe it is just an Easter Egg reference and not them actually setting a precedent, the "flux" ends once the normandy zooms in

#

"Through fire like rain, against the impossible - kzzkt - as if creation willed its existence, as if chased by crimson fate - kttkzkzzkt -"

vague oriole
#

OH NO

#

DID SOMEONE SAY SAO

tame shell
#

yes

vague oriole
#

don't

prime spade
#

Several people are typing

ocean wyvern
#

Theoretical future crossovers aren't spoilers and should go in #nms-the-future

jolly thicket
#

I don't even know what that is ... but I see references to the name all the time in lots of game communities

ocean wyvern
#

Just clogs up this channel tbh

vague oriole
#

We're just discussing the lore tho

mighty rampart
#

she meant we better not start talking about that

vague oriole
#

Sao was an example

#

Ah ok

prime spade
#

Yeah I only invoked it in reference that the last game I was playing the hell out of was Phantasy Star Online 2, and they just literally did an in-universe SAO crossover and I as a lore nerd for whatever game I'm playing could only think "Well this might as well be happening"

vague oriole
#

Yea

#

No sao crossover end of discussion

#

There

ocean wyvern
#

The second expedition started right after ME: Legendary released; its not too shocking that there was inclusion. Especially considering Sean Murray used to work for EA, although that was for Criterion.

candid lark
#

ooh, just found my first Boundary Failure

#

I think this game can best be described as The Matrix on a galactic scale. We play...anomalies or travellers who are like Neo and the gang who are distinctly aware of the whole thing being a simulation, but the purpose of the simulation in this case remains a mystery. What is the Atlas really hiding is the question

deep parrot
#

I just had a shower thought. We'll probably be getting exclusive pets from the Expeditions too.

jolly thicket
#

pets - unlikely - new skins for the drone - somewhat more probable

deep parrot
#

Another shower thought:
No Man's Sky is an oddly appropriate universe for a Digimon crossover. Note: I do not condone this crossover. XD

jolly thicket
#

as long as they don't have that godawful theme song...

deep parrot
#

Di-Di-Digimon

#

I really like that theme song though. :/

#

Starts figuring out how to assemble ByteBeat boxes.

jolly thicket
#

first time I saw those - was thinking - this is awfully familiar - note blocks on Minecraft are pretty similar

deep parrot
#

Ye.

#

Minecraft is the game to look at for successful sandbox ideas.

ocean wyvern
#

its boring when games just copy whatever the last success was to try to do the same

#

it always makes them just a cheap copy

deep parrot
#

Yes and no.

ocean wyvern
#

It's not a spoiler discussion anyway.

jolly thicket
#

well I've been playing Minecraft off and on since the early beta days, back when there weren't "editions"

Minecraft planet biome confirmed.

nocturne zephyr
#

that would be cool

#

I do think HG are missing out by not creating pixel biomes/cube biomes

jolly thicket
#

they kind of do that already with those hollow square pillars though

#

or those shard world types

#

you know, the ones with like stained glass-looking stuff

nocturne zephyr
#

i wouldn't say that's anything like what I'm talking about

#

we're in a simulation, so HG could do anything with biomes

all I'll say is it's useful to have along with a star seed

#

does the atlas path just restart after i do the thing

and ask paolo for new coordinates?

lean vault
#

I was doing the galaxy core mission, but I refused to... go to the next universe. Then it said I could always do it later. But I went back to the portal on the galaxy core planet, and this time it just worked like a regular portal

#

I then try to find an atlas to see if I could tell it to do the reset, but it was just a regular Atlas visit on the Atlas path

#

Anyone know how to do the reset after having refused it the first time?

mighty rampart
#

well you cant do it later, as in you cant choose the galaxy you want to go to if you refuse it and instead have to manually go to the center to get to the next galaxy in line

lean vault
#

I did not think you could ever chose what galaxy to go to? I thought it was always the next in line either way

#

But how do I go to the next galaxy from the center?

mighty rampart
#

in the artemis storyline you get 4 galaxies to choose from

#

that's the thing you refused

lean vault
#

Ahh, nice. Thanks. I will try this then 🙂

lean vault
#

I got to the second galaxy 🙂 Then I went on the weekend mission and then another Quick Silver mission, but on that second mission I got caught up in a wild storm and died. But at least I managed to get to the second galaxy on Permadeath with the achievements and such that comes with that.

I forget. what do the Remembrance and the Star Seed do

they help keep you alive

(trying not to spoil)

This is a spoilers channel though????

jolly thicket

they're kind of like some of the shield upgrades

rough depot
#

They give you extra health

#

Not shield, but actual health points

heady wyvern
# uncut harness I forget. what do the Remembrance and the Star Seed do

Star Seed and Remembrance grant an additional hit point each (the small + icons below your shield meter) (+3hp if placed adjacent). Remembrance has the additional effect of allowing you to access special lore terminals that sometimes appear behind the Atlas Pass-locked door in Space Stations.

uncut harness
#

ok

deep parrot
#

The Star Seed lets you see all black holes without needing Polo.

mighty rampart
#

you dont need the star seed to view black holes

#

just completing the path grants you that ability

even if you decline in the end

Do we think the next expedition is gonna start next week?

wonder if it’ll be a longer one

I expect the Normandy to be peoples best Frigate now?

#

Wait can you get more than one normandy?

nocturne zephyr
#

actually

#

i think i did get 2 normandys

when it flew over head, and there was dialogue, i didn’t close out and it restarted the dialogue

indigo night

damn okay

nocturne zephyr
#

yeah was a bug

#

wouldn’t make sense otherwise

pearl ravine
#

the normandy is a fleet? welp

#

was hoping it was a ship, rip

tepid iris
#

if the next expedition launches next week

#

I'll have to combine the NMS expedition, and an similar event in RS at once 😬

once i finish the expedition i can delete that save right

what if you were to enter one that was in low atmosphere

NO FUNNY BUSINESS

oh uh i closed the game already

that's the normandy event planet

there are multiple guides afaik

apparently there was a patch

it only took me a few hours total to get through the entire thing

@lavish marshI tried making "rendezvous 5" my target but it's so insanely far away idk how I'm supposed to get there

are u using the freighter?

mental socket
lavish marsh

for warping

crisp condor

Yeah

lavish marsh
#

ah, i used my golden vector

mental socket
#

same

lavish marsh
#

so idk how to quickly get through it all with a freigther

crisp condor
#

Did like 15 warps already still no clue how far I gotta go

got there with like 3-4 warps

crisp condor
#

Golden Vector?

mental socket
#

on galaxy map

lavish marsh
mental socket
#

season 1 final reward was golden vector

crisp condor
#

destination is current mission

lavish marsh

and ur current mission is selected to be that expedition mission?

crisp condor

which is expedition rendezvous 5. I can't see the end point, it just keeps going

mental socket
#

pretty ship

crisp condor
#

What system is rendezvous 5?

mental socket
#

can't remember the name but you should be able to see it if you go to free flight and move the camera towards the end of the line

crisp condor
#

end of the line just stops and then gets longer each time I warp

pearl ravine
crisp condor
#

looks like you now have to do every rendezvous (in order)

mental socket
#

ye

#

optional order

#

do whatever you like and prioritize rewards you want to have

pearl ravine
#

what use does unlocking the dosimeter do in expedition rewards?

#

also, can i not unlock sparse horizon helmet cross-character?

celest saddle
#

Is the Normandy immune to damage? Because I don't seena way to land on it if it were to sustain any

celest saddle
#

Dosimeter allows you to finish phase 5

pearl ravine
#

weird, i didn't unlock the sparse horizon on my regular character

#

also you get the dosimeter as a reward cross-character, my question is why do you want it on non-expedition characters

celest saddle
#

Just to have it I guess?

#

Maybe it will provide value in update 16

pearl ravine
#

lol why not shoves it in freighter storage

celest saddle
#

Exactly

#

Should have enough slots anyways

#

Unless you're me and have a bunch of containers full of duped stuff lmao

celest saddle
#

Also yeah, I just noticed that all the cosmetics are exclusive to that character

#

Hope they fix that

#

Would really like armored clothing on my main

#

Without paying all the quicksilver in the world

amber lava
# celest saddle Hope they fix that

I don't think that's a bug, the same way you don't get any of the inventory expansions, ship storage, modules, etc etc that you get from the different expedition... challenges/missions (whatever they're called 😂 )

celest saddle
#

Well those rewards are badge rewards

#

The armor rewards come from the actual expedition phase reward

amber lava
#

Gotcha. They should move the armor rewards to the badge and not the phase rewarwd.

celest saddle
#

The phase rewards, (at least from pioneer season) were permenant account wide

#

Either move it to a badge reward or make them overall permenant

#

Because the only actual rewards you get to keep from beach head are the phase 5 rewards and the completion

amber lava
#

Yeah I'd prefer perm too, but I can see how that reward (the armor) would be specific to the expedition since exp#2 was loosely themed around Mass Effect

celest saddle
#

They should have made all all of the expedition phase rewards some kind of mass effect related thing

#

Like one phase maybe has a mordin or shepherd head, another with the pistol you get in the beginning of ME

gusty berry

hey the normandy flyby, does it happen when you're on foot on a planet

I'm definitely expecting this week

They did say very soon after all

And it's basically June

#

I wonder what it could be

deep parrot
#

Maybe "even moar biomes!"

#

I don't really have an idea of what kind of features to expect at this point.

#

Starship and multitool crafting would be nice though.

green burrow
#

Well they could make so we could have our own orbital station, like go into a dead/system and we would have to rebuild it

#

There is a lot of systems that they could implement but each system adds complexity to the code base, which ends up increasing the cost for future updates

orchid ginkgo
#

The easiest way for that would be allowing a base computer, give the abandoned station a power supply requirement, and go from there. Make the station have an S-class power field if you don't want more assets. Tbh, I don't see that coming until after they give a purpose for the trade commodities outside of trading.

green burrow
#

Well yeah, that as way of doing it. It could also tie in with growing the economy , and keeping the system conflict free for example
