If nothing else happens for the ARG, just wanna say y’all are awesome! Thanks for tolerating me despite me barely doing anything for the ARG <3. This has been very fun! And a thank you to System! :3

Operadores! Nunca he sido una persona de pertenecer a grupos o comunidades, ni siquiera de activar el multijugador, pero tras el breve periodo de tiempo que llevo aquí, y viendo que sois unas personas maravillosas, creo que es un lugar en el que podría encajar. Empecé en las sombras leyendo vuestras teorías a diario, y poco a poco, he salido a la luz para interactuar (y sobre todo bailar :squinting_face_with_tongue: ) con muchos de vosotros. Me da mucha pena que esto termine, aunque espero poder seguir formando parte de esta gran comunidad. Gracias a todos!

I hopped on the Skyscraper train very late, and so I wasn’t able to get a window prime number (no answer from system, sadly). But as jokarson said, I had a blast reading about theories, progression in general and in every clue, and even participated a bit in theorycrafting.

As a newcomer both to this community and ARGs, it was a bit hard to follow everything happening (plus not being at home for a few days until yesterday) but amazing experience regardless.

Thank you, everyone :smiley:

YBM pointed out they look like custom wedding favors.

Congratulations to the happy couple (whoever you are)! :wink:

Actually going to a wedding on Friday and another one on the 29th of August (same day as the guildford meetup).

I swear I’m not Archie.

Living

(DNA of the ancients are within each of us)

Glass

(memory substrate)

Anchor

(object that immediately invokes strong nostalgia)

Hexagons

(observe living crystal fauna, notice they are hexagonal towers spawning others as they move)

If they are to be gifted… that’s a hell of a memory for the recipients, indeed. Quite a set of powerful reality anchors, I wonder how locations will factor in?

I dunno bro… with all the WT connections… (probably more imagined than real), and your knack for stone faced, left fieldedness… is that a word? It is now…

I look forward to the next phase with you.

While these would make nice little mementos, or “memory anchors,” I’m personally not expecting to receive one. The ARG feels like it has wrapped up for the time being, and they never tried to trick us into giving away our mailing addresses.

I’m thinking these may have been intended for HG staff, or for the Guilford meetup recipients… or maybe even for a NMS-themed wedding.

Oh, what an amazing wedding that would be! And a phenomenal theme.

Lore and insight follows, in case you wish to skip it.

Personally, I don’t believe the ARG is over- simply paused.

Much like with WT, there’s multiple phases; an argument can easily be made PSS is a continuation already. System is still out there. And WT never officially ended. Zero closure to the story. And PSS picked up years later. Chapters of a book, that isn’t over until the final loop closes.

And if you saw the looping themes involved, you would you realize we just got started.

A shared dream has only now been established with System. Next is Altas rising and silencing System. The original Utopia of lore. -something something- Finally will be the Great Disconnection; Discovery servers going offline.

the true finale will be the pockets of server space maintained by the communities… much like the universe in a few billion years will be.

We have at least until the 17th minute to go. Possibly to the fabled 19th minute.

Our time flows forward, through the past of No Man’s Sky. No Man’s Sky updates, paradoxically, flows backwards. Future Past.

I cannot tell exactly what will happen, but the MileStones are all over the lore. The anchoring actions within the fabric hold each storyline to the tapestry.

Those 12 hexagonal shards of glass are matched to each other with a symbol. There’s still more to come. Wich if you get my looping concept at all, a wedding of sorts does happen within the lore. An intense memory where one race forever changes another, to hell with the looping. Yet, the loop closes when the quantum foam rewrites the virtual DNA, creating the division… granting us the concept of the First Spawn.

All known science fiction is in the lore and concepts. 42 is the answer, found by a machine using the entire Earth and inhabitants. We just hooked ourselves up as one conceptually.

“blah blah blah, yackity schmakity.”
