WOW, thank you! 
You noticed my cake.
I tend to hangout on the outskirts of Atlas CSD.
I think of it as deceptively the central core…
WT Season 1 - Loop16/Portals were key!
WT Season 2 - This time it’s VR/MMOG!
As per usual, I seem to lead the controversial.
June 19, '17 is the anniversary of the day I joined our community.
And now I recall why I originally did so…
It was because @Emily was trying to break it to people that Waking Titan and No Man’s Sky were truly connected. But the “Strictly ARG” enthusiasts couldn’t accept it. There was the “Loop16 Comm Station” located in NMS, and yet they griped, “But where’s the proof? How do we know for sure? Give us the maths!” She finally just outright said it, “I think we should all start learning about No Man’s Sky.” NMS fans got excited and wanted to talk, but as soon as they did, they’d get shot down by the “Strictly ARG” enthusiasts. True story!
That’s when I joined and started the 1st No Man’s Sky thread… Which began as “Portals” (due to the 16 cassettes) and grew into “Atlas/Loop16/Emily” (due to the comm station). But the “Atlas” subject quickly expanded into “Concepts of God”, “Atlas Foundation Technology”, and so much more.
I kept being told, “Loop16 doesn’t help the ARG progress!” And while this appeared true in the beginning, everything eventually boiled down to “Loop16”. Within 2 months, we NMS fans had excessively broke down everything “Loop16” and then sure enough, such became the most important subject of WT Season 1.
In fact, it still is.
WT Season 2?—For me, this time around specifically, it’s been pretty quiet and lonely, hanging around out here on the outskirts of controversy. Most were pretty afraid to touch the subjects of MMOG (multiplayer) or PvP (player vs player). I understand! And now, Hello Labs (Hello Games as investors/educators) and VR (virtual reality) are so particularly taboo, that it seems to be 
crickets all the way.
Here’s my Season 1 and Season 2 threads…
No Man’s Sky—Profit, VR, MMOG & Future
What fun! - What an exhilarating ride!
