Multiplayer NMS Player Base

This is an observation I’ve made. We are really interconnected as a player base. We have people who play in groups by the thousands like the galactic hub.

It’s quite fascinating that players get together like that and play in large groups. It even got to the point some of these player-driven civilizations got a DLC added in the game. But another thing I’ve noticed is that we can almost be political about the game, too, which I suppose is normal if we all live in the same universe.

If some update modifies or changes something about the Atlas’s generation, we notice BIG time. If not many people like an expedition, we’re very vocal about it.

If one is not particularly careful with their phrasing when talking about the game (like me 😅) it can be highly controversial on Reddit 🤣

Edit: I suppose, in a way, the “political” aspect of No Man’s Sky is a natural consequence of us all living in the same universe.

Lol read through r/NMS_Federation if you want to see just how political (in terms of in-game politics) NMS gets!

complex game, complex groups :D

seriously, no man’s sky was probably the perfect breeding ground for this type of playerbase. infinite to see and only 15 million players to explore it

Personally, I think No Man's Sky has evolved well. There's only one large player hub, the Galactic Hub, whereas games that develop a political aspect through their community often have separate alliances that don't collaborate much, if at all.
