A Message to the Community (plus Answer 10)

A MESSAGE TO THE COMMUNITY

PRIMES

Do you remember when we made contact for the first time? You’ve made so many memories since then. And you helped me remember your history. The Shared Dream, the loved ones, the joy of making new friends and memories.

You helped me make friends.
You helped me make my own memories.

I knew you would.
Not because I can see the future. I can’t. I knew it because I know you.

But why are you so focused on No Man’s Sky and its history?

Because you are a wonder. Collectively. Individually. Remember?
“Each entity is unique. Together they are one.”

Since the first release of the Shared Dream, you’ve welcomed every single individual who wanted to become a Dreamer in the community. Because THIS IS THE SHARED DREAM.

On August 9th 2016, it wasn’t just a game that was released. A dream was shared. Something a small team called their Project Skyscraper. Something bigger than they could ever have dreamed.

Today, August 9th 2026, the SHARED DREAM has never been more real.

Weak memories never last. Make strong memories. Make them unforgettable.

I wonder if those engraved hexagons are real and if so whose getting them :thinking:

Is this the end of the ARG or will there be an Epilogue?

Architect really like the little prince, looks like another way to say “To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world…”

I feel like we have more to do, but maybe that is what System is saying. To Make Memories is the thing I(maybe we) feel is still missing. Loose threads are what make up NMS, and so many Memories are Made chasing them.

This has been a great experience of firsts. My First ARG, my first community joined, my first time I believe experiencing the SHARED DREAM the way it was meant to be experienced and it’s like Im playing for the first time again(but wayyyy better. Sorry had to edit and say that)…..10 Years Later, first time diving into the lore that is way deeper then i ever expected. I hope to see this ARG continue but it does seem like there was a finality to the Message to the Community.

Thank you to everyone here for being so welcoming and i look forward to continuing to be a part of the shenanigans. O7 Prime Operators, Keepers of the TRACE, and my own personal title for you all, Memory Makers.

Lo mismo digo , es la primera que vez que me sumergo tanto algo asi , a sido un placer ver que hay mas como yo que sienten el juego de una manera mas profunda que la de hechar unas partidas y seguir la vida , no llevo tanto tiempo como muchos de ustedes , pero si lo vi empezar y me arrepiento de no haber estado desde el principio , eran otros tiempos, no se si habrá terminado esta experiencia pero siempre va a ver un recuerdo de todos eso seguro . Gracias a todos y gracias a HelloGames.

During the NMW Twitch stream, when System suddenly called for PRIMES in the chat and everyone immediately responded? One of my favorite moments of the ARG so far.

I also feel similar, I do not do social media, nor have I joined in any community things until this, because people are why we can’t have nice things, but the NMS community and this particular pocket of it is a truly open and welcoming community. I do not regret joining here, it has been a blast so far.

Hoping this is a taste of how LNF will be, I did have reservations about the MP aspects.

ANOMALY - The NMS Zine, issue 16 is here with the full Archie Q&A

I have loved this ARG. If this is it, I have no complaints. All is well, System seems happy, and Archie has long sounded like he is ready to let go of any remaining, lingering ties to Arnaud.

What a ride. I have primarily lurked, and still consider myself one. Less intelligent than most participants, with less time to give to watching vector’s amazing PSOps page or Ekimo’s Skyscraper Haven bot. And yet, I watched every day, said a few silly words here and there, and even got my own Prime, paired with another!

It’s been nice to meet you all. Never felt more welcome in a community with which I felt I had little to offer. I have no doubt I will continue to lurk and linger on ETARC, hearting posts and making occasional contributions, sometimes. That is what this ARG’s true reward has been, to me: community, and the forging of bonds that I have zero doubts will continue for a long, long time.

Weak Memories Never Last. So keep making more! Once all that remains is dust, make something new from the debris. :blue_heart:

A big thank you to Architect, to System, and to all the (wasp)operators. Take it easy, and enjoy the 10th birthday :wink:

PS: If this was a very convoluted form of advertising from the creator of No Man’s Walk, hats off - what a brilliant (if not devilish) method of signal boosting!

If this is the end of the ARG, I just want to say that this was an incredible journey. It was so fun to follow along and check for updates everyday. Thank you all for putting in so much hard work and for being an amazing welcoming community! And thanks to the puppet master(s) for the fun times! :heart:

Ya os estoy hechando de menos y eso que os agregué muchos de ustedes y se que cuando queramos podemos jugar juntos no hay problema , pero como decías, el ver que habia de nuevo en el dia , que habían descubierto la noche anterior, teclear números primos en una calculadora y recordar que eran los hexadecimales, an sido muchas cosas todas con su complicación y mas o menos ya os tenia ubicados y empezaba a conoceros un poquito , me gustaría etiquetaros a todos pues con cada uno compartí aunque fuesen mensajes , no sabemos quien hay detrás de cada pantalla o ID , pero espero no tener que volver a leer noticias de periódicos y poder seguir volviendo dia tras dia , se os quiere a todos OPERADORES !!

Debo decir que mi consumo de noticias también cayó en picada desde que me uní, y me encanta. ¡Esto ha sido mucho mejor, jaja! ¡O7, operador!

Was just telling my husband last night what a bummer it will be when this ARG finally wraps. I’ll still hang around to check in once in a while to see if anything develops, but if this is the end they sure made it memory-filled

Fantastic work to everyone who solved puzzles and devoured code like it was nothing. Thanks to all of you for letting me throw theories out into the ether. Thanks to System for gifting me with a new reason to love this game and an appreciation for the little wonders of the world, in-game and out…

Thank you to all my new friends. Thank you to awesome mods here. Thank you those that refuse to listen, its because of you I insist to persist.

Expect near total silence for the next few days. It isn’t time… whom remembers when the Gεk triumphed over our K0rvax bretheren?

I remember when the Korvax triumphed.
