My journey continues. Another planet, this time a snowy one:
Doesn’t look that snowy up close though, rather barren:
I found a random traveller that gave me the coordinates of his grave. It was in the middle of a huge cave system:
There aren’t many creatures around, which is why I found them all rather quickly. I snatched the glyph and headed off.
'Nother planet, a hot one.
Again, I found a traveller and got another glyph. On the way to its grave, I took some photos of some rather impressive cliffs, littered with caves:
Found the grave, this time not that well hidden:
Markers sometimes give great views across the landscape:
Got the glyph, scanned all creatures, and I was off again.
Once I finished visiting all planets in that system, I focused on finishing my base, establishing my farm (limits off) and continuing the Artemis storyline. Which caused me to revisit some planet I was on before:
No to give any spoilers, I had to travel between quite a number of Holo-Terminals.
Last but not least, it brought me to this anomaly:
They (you know who I’m talking about) wanted me to visit another system, and as soon as I exited hyperspace, I was in the middle of a huge fight of pirates against a fleet of freighters.
I destroyed them and visited the main freighter’s captain, which offered a B class freighter - for a whooping 170 M units. Suffice to say, didn’t have that much with me at that time. But I’m on my way.
Here’s a shot of my fighter entering the freighter:
And of course, since I got into a new system, I just had to visit all of the planets. The first one was this incredibly looking hot desert planet. Also, I witnessed a glitch causing a far distant planet appearing in front of the planet’s atmosphere I was just about to land on:
It looks like a tiny moon, but unfortunately it’s just a visual glitch. One which I hope gets fixed in NEXT.
The surface of the planet is full of huge and deep canyons:
Flying through them was a real treat:
It is quite sandy, too, quite desert-y like:
Here’s a rather unusual sight: Birds that actually look like birds, not flying dogs:
Another picture of huge gorges:
The lasher plants had an interesting look, very similar to the planet’s appearance:
Sunsets on that planet are an incredible sight, especially in combination with a hot storm:
And here’s my roamer dubbed “Explorer” on the bottom of a canyon during the night:
Finally, another shot of the huge canyons there, during a storm:
Scanned all creatures and left again.
Not sure if I get all screenshots I took so far online before NEXT launches. Another 94 are left. I think I’ll just take the liberty of posting them even after the update comes out.
