Unfortunately I think there’s a decent chance this will be the last major update or Expedition as they shift their focus to Light No Fire. I hope that’s not the case.

I finished today as well. Overall, I thought it was fine. It’s clear it was meant to show new players different parts of the game. I was actually glad it was so succinct without much grinding. Almost everything you need was within the confines of the expedition, either as a reward or available somewhere along the path.

While I always like the cosmetic rewards, it annoys me that the colors and textures never quite match the existing customizations. I wish they would go back and make everything a little more consistent.

I often keep playing my expedition saves and get them into an end-game state. I haven’t decided if I will this time.

I ended up building out a base on Nash 33/W4 because I came across an S-Class Sodium spot and I liked the nearby cave system. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/b8f0af62-829c-4b19-bab4-7edb54a1d728.jpeg

It’s adjacent to a crashed freighter as well.

I’ll keep expanding on it while I wait for the expedition to end so I can complete the main quests.

Yeah, technically it’s not over for me either. I just started doing end game tasks like collecting portal glyphs, farming for a freighter, etc.

It looks like the expedition is finally over since the last optional milestone was reached; however when I go to collect the rewards and officially end the expedition, the game locks up. My character just stands there and the controls have no effect. Hopefully they get that fixed soon.

Yeah, there’s definitely cause for concern

Yeah I assume they will start focusing on Light No Fire more.

It would be smart if they made an effort to migrate the NMS fan base over to LNF. Like give you exclusives in LNF if NMS is also installed or something like that.

I know what you mean. I think as Twitter started to implode, Mastodon and other platforms were a little more prepared to pick up the slack. I don’t think Lemmy was as mature when Reddit started having issues so adoption wasn’t as strong as it could’ve been. I still have hope that Lemmy continues to grow.

I was really active in NMSCE and NMSGE on Reddit but honestly I haven’t been playing NMS as much lately. I’ll start up again with the new Expedition.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I’ll probably give LNF a shot. I don’t know if it will be as compelling as NMS.

Oh good… I felt bad that I couldn’t move the dumpster for Brendan in my latest playthrough.

Great find! You should share this in NMSGlyphExchange.

This is the way.

You can find it at -22.81, +111.53. I have a Communications Station there as well.
