Exciting stuff seems to be happening. Fans are getting messaged by HG? HG really loves their community.
Edit: Oh! Somehow I missed the first tweet about sandworms. Ohboy, he should not have mentioned it if he isn’t going to deliver it. Unless… no… it can’t be… could it?
I recently asked someone on Twitter if we might get an area that rotates with our screenshots. The reply was, if so, hopefully it would rotate out better than the featured bases on the terminus…anyway, there is some speculation along these lines out there right now.
Well, They have to measure up to Toto somehow. Say about Lynch’s dune what you want, that Soundtrack is hard to beat…
I do hope the soundtrack takes that general rock-remix feel in the movie, not just in the trailer. We have way too few movies with strong riffs!
Reminds me of this image from the original NMS trailer…
At first glance it looks like corals until you notice the Knowledge Stone & details on the tree. Really nice work!
Thinking about the speculated photo area, I can see that happening. Perhaps on space stations rather than the nexus? One area can can have them posted up like a sort of art meusem of that system your in. Anyone visiting can check that spot out for cool places to visit. Sort of like a billboard right at the entrance of a park trail.
Building up on that, a Meusem in-game would be actually really cool! Imagine one Meusem could be placed every like 10,000LY and that meusem can have photos that people took within a 10,000LY radius and also have scanned plants and fauna there and maybe even bits of ruins behind glass with lore attatched to them when interacted with. That would give us all a more enjoyable reason to take photos and scan things. As well as points of interest in the galaxy that would give us more reason to travel.
Okay I gotta stop, this is the speculation thread, not the wishlist. Lol.
Yes, that trailer gave me hope that we may get a good Dune movie. It’s by Warner Bros so I hope they beat out Disney’s gutting of Star Wars. That would be poetic justice, since Dune inspired the original Star Wars movies.
Desert planets as planet type, ie replace water with a “sand substance” and like diplos have a condition for "sand worms " to spawn in certain biomes/conditions.
And world of glass… behind glass, view only, is it the finale? A monument to pay homage to all players, creations, and highlights in NMS over the years…
Hmmm, so maybe not all of these, but most of these are Blender builds. It makes me wonder. SM is surely aware of the limitations in-game and how painful it is to glitch build. An overhaul of the building mechanics would.be very nice.
I was watching a live steam talk about that article yesterday and that live chat was was like, “check the name!” I think many of us had a good laugh when the streamer and his guest finally saw it.
