Vermillion Globe: off the beaten trail but offering interesting sights.
So, here’s a cool story of something that happened to me while playing!
I picked up this crashed fighter with the hopes that one day I could fix it up and fly it. Pretty much all of its slots were broken, but I couldn’t pass up its attribute. And I really liked the design of the ship. I added it to my collection.
I’ve been slowly fixing it up, hitting up drop pods so I can actually carry that much stuff. One broken slot required 410 Parafinium! And since I was moving at a leisure pace, I had fixed one or two. Until yesterday. That’s when I decided I was going to buckle down and find the material while accruing some units along the way.
I ended up farming a lot of expensive resources for a bit more.
I got to some Ruins that I was escavating and gathering more material to refine more stuff I needed. I was going to be an all day event.
And then!
This guy arrives into my game!
He said hello and asked me if I needed anything. Of course I do! I’m repairing my ship, which requires a crap-ton of stuff! I explain that to him and list off a few things I had been working towards. He then gives me more than enough to fix half the slots.
He had a really nice Exotic and MT as well! I asked him if he had coordinates for those. He gave them to me! lol
Then he asked if I needed units. I said, “Always!” lol. He then gave me 10 Stasis Devices! Worth over 160 mil!
He said good-bye and left the game. Where I assume he entered another person’s game to help them out. What a guy! I was so surprised it happened to me! lol
So, I continued my journey on the Atlas Path, and what do I find in the next few systems I warp to? THE PERFECT CAPITAL SHIP. 34 Slots, A Class, with a beautiful design. Operated by Gek (I’m partial to Korvax, tbh). And it was 147mil. Ahhh! I grabbed it.
I was also able to pick up a third frigate, a combat ship, to balance out the two I already had, trader and support.
I didn’t think I’d feel so accomplished, but I couldn’t stop smiling! lol! That some random player decided to jump in and give at will. So cool.
Consider this a “sneak peek” into my next NMS Cinematic video, as I will definitely be featuring this Capital Ship. This is the best game ever!
What a nice guy!
But… but… Vermilion is a deep red colour! O.o
Here’s an underwater shot.
Here’s my green fighter.
Dino.
So I guess that HG liked using vermillion rather than orange.
The final terminus for the atlas rises story brought me here to this portal, so I’m calling it home. I’m the tiny gek just to the left of the tentacles. Decided to switch to a gek in my new playthrough
Dr Seusscrafts “The Grinch stole Cthulu”
They framed themselves in the view so nicely, I had to grab a shot.
Hunting for treasure underground, but finding it in the sky (THAT VIEW!)
Found it!
Noticed a trio of ships making a nice formation, then I noticed one of them was an exotic!
Right after I took this shot, the exotic ship came in for a landing right next to me (was standing on a Trade Post). I grabbed a video of the whole encounter, and will post it soon.
Found some Vy’Keen with human-like eyes
A deer with a fancy necklace
Remnants of love past
Discovered Vy’Keen like leather chairs
So I decided to stay a while
Started a new save last week while I wait for current autosave bug to hopefully be fixed. Decided to go through life as a Gek, very happy to have found this bounty while all suit vitals were critical and sentinels were looking to have words with me.
Carbonated Soda Anyone??
I haven’t taken the time to upload photos recently, so there will be a lot here.
I have to start with the butterflies.
I found a “Harsh Blue Globe” planet with “Inverted Superstorms”.
My first experience with a ship spawning underwater.
I’ve seen a few of these tube structures before, but never this big. If you look closely, you can see me standing on the rim.
I don’t remember cold planets having this many trees.
Haven’t seen these in a while. Too bad they’re just oxygen now.
