It's built around a monument as well as into the local cave system. I really like how it's turning out. It's a shame the planet is a bit of an infested hellscape....
🚀 I made it just in time and got my first S-Class ship! - Also my first real starship after the starter shipwreck. Just finished the Cartographer Redux event in No Man's Sky and really enjoyed it 🤩
The expedition was like a long and rewarding tutorial mission, I have learned a lot. I tried the game a few years ago but bounced off for some reason. Gave it another try and now I can't stop exploring. Such a beautiful game.
I'm playing #NMS in #Steam#VR on a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 and... it is struggling!
It's running on a Razer Blade laptop I bought second hand to experience with PCVR and computer graphics, but I'm still a Mac user for work. This makes me reluctant to buy a powerful new PC as it feels rather excessive just for gaming... uh, on this particular game...!
I was thinking of getting an eGPU, but the cost is also pretty high once you throw in a Razer Core X or similar casing 🤔 Thoughts?
@mountdiscovery It sounds like there's really no way of getting around just replacing the Razer Blade. I'll check out the ASUS ROG Zephyrus, although I don't actually need a laptop so I might do better with a desktop for money... Thank you for the recommendation!
@mountdiscovery A Google just taught me that a PS5 + PSVR would actually be cheaper than a new PC, so I could buy that as a second headset in addition to my Meta Quest 3 for less money, and focus on gaming for the PS and other VR-apps for the Meta Quest 3.
That's a really interesting idea, and I hadn't considered that! I think there's probably enough PCVR stuff I'd like to still prefer a capable PC, but that was a whole new idea... thanks!
Tried out shadow.tech for cloud PC & PCVR gaming while I'm travelling.
It worked reasonably well playing #NMS (No Man's Sky) in #VR, but I wasn't able to multiplayer Age of Mythology across our home LAN network. To first order, this is because the cloud PC isn't on our LAN, but I connected it to our other computer via "tailscale" which should have mimicked them being on the same network. I remain rather baffled as to why that didn't work... 🤔
@piepants I don’t think so… it seems to see the game and try to connect, but then time out 😮💨 I would assume (though not certain) that if it hated the ip, then it would just not find the game at all.

No Man’s Sky was released 7 years ago yesterday (August 9th) on PS4 in North America, today (August 10th) on PS4 in Europe, and August 12th on Steam....
I made it to the "Anomaly" in No Man's Sky #NMS! With my GPU struggling, I tried out PlutoSphere, which lets you run PC #VR games on a cloud gaming computer.
But disaster struck!
Once my tokens for PlutoSphere were exhausted, the machine automatically shutdown and booted me out. This was expected BUT I assumed the save would be automatically uploaded to the cloud. It was not 😱 . Apparently, upload timing is erratic, so you have to manually push the upload when using PlutoSphere. SIGH.
(In case anyone was wondering what I did about this loss of game data: I sucked it up and repeated the--fortunately just 1 hour--session on my struggling but brave laptop. But #NMS randomises basically... everything... so I ended up having to complete my quest on a way rougher planet where I was hunted down by evil senitels, which was difficult as I am NEW and WEAK. But. Success. Here is a image of my friend lounging on my spacecraft's wing. I took off and he fell off 🤣)
I had a thought: Someone should create a plugin to add the Kerbal star/planet system to No Man’s Sky. We could visit the lil’ green guys. Help them with their space program. It’d be fun!
