10 Strangest Lifeforms in No Man's Sky | Living Frigates and Multi-tools?

Ойындар

The universe of No Man’s Sky is filled with some of the strangest sci-fi life you’ll encounter in any game. While the game is famous for its procedural planetary fauna, the universe is home to many stranger things still. From living frigates to alien weapons, these are some of the most intriguing and just plain weird lifeforms NMS has to offer.

    I thought about that. It's not really clear what kind of corruption they cause though. I sort of view it like mold or fungus. Yeah, it's gross, but not terribly strange in the grand scheme of things. Edit: Thanks for the comment though!

    Actually I believe that’s a combination of Nanites, the Abyss and the different forms of living slime in contact with each other, because it’s the best way to farm for Nanites in early game play. A living Byproduct if you will. But still as interesting as it is disgusting, nonetheless.

    Missed the alien monstrosities you find on abandoned freighters and on dead planets which are pretty weird as well as anglerfish and sentient minerals i.e. rocks with legs. Other contenders include the loose energy beings you find on some worlds that look like will-o-wisps. Also I encountered a planet apparently populated by stick men once.

    I once landed on a planet, where every animal and plant was just this weird round ball just standing, or rolling arround. There were tons of ruins on it and I was able to get a ton of loot. Problem was the planet was heavily guarded, so even being seen by guards would make them attack you.

    I just came across a “Planet of Light”. There’s rocks but all the flora are beams of light that shoot up. Quite interesting. Another one I’ve been to was a “Mechanical Planet” and all the flora and fauna were like engine parts. I adopted a pet which is literally just like a ball of energy that floats around. Such an interesting concept.

    If I remember correctly the scientific definition if "life" is that it has to require nutrients, be able to grow, and maybe reproduce? But it's actually quite separate from the definition if conscious or sentient, those criteria actually only require an entity be able to perceive, understand, and react to things.

    Always had the idea in my head that alien multitools were infected. This strange goop does build up on machinery and can be refined into living slime and the like, not to mention the monstrosities have all their crap plastered over abandoned buildings. What if this stuff came in contact with an abandoned multitool and with time proceeds to infect and even change the tool?

    It's safe to delete. I just did so with my expedition file a few hours ago. Just make sure you've made a manual save on that file (jump in and out of your ship) before deleting it. If you want to play it safe, do like I did and go to whatever your primary file is and claim some of this expedition's rewards, just to make sure they're registered properly with your overall account. I did that, then deleted the expedition file next time I booted up the game. No issues.

    I always found it so odd that we trade things in nanites and that the Korvax aren't creeped out by it. We're trading in Korvax blood, in a way. This leads me to several theories: 1. The darkest but less probable one is that the currency was instated while the First Spawn had inslaved the Korvax, and it is a remnant of that past 2. Or maybe the Korvax just don't take it personally. We donate blood after all. We can live without it. I wouldn't be creeped out if I saw blood pouches at a hospital. Maybe also their science-based culture influences that too 3. The nanites exist independently from the Korvax, and they just happen to have integrated them into their bodies the way we have integrated bactria into our digestive system and now can't live without them In general, I have a lot of questions about the Korvax. Beyond how they are able to even for a Convergence in the first place, how does one end up being part machine on a species level? It's not like they're cyborgs - or are they? Maybe they are born without machineparts but immediately put into a casing and they grow and developin a way that takes that into account...? I would love to know more about how the different species in NMS evolved and what their life cycles are like. The three mainalien species don't look particularly sexually dymorphic, at least not that I've been able to tell - so do they just not combine genetic material like we do? So many questions... 3.

    As for plants it IS different than carnivorous plants. I mean, we have carnivorous plants on Earth, everyone's seen a plant like Venus Flytrap, Drosera, or a Pitcher Plant, either IRL or on the internet. There's a high chance some of you own or owned a Flytrap at some point, cause they're just awesome. And there's no indication of them being capable of having sentient thoughts as they lack neural network necessary to achieve it. So the fact that the sentient plants are described as sentient is key here, their general shape is also different from other plants as they're always rather spherical and lumpy, having enough 3d space inside them to be able to form some sort of plant based neural network. They also behave differently from other plants, and react in a way indicating sentience, as carnivorous plants generally don't react to their environment in a way that indicates any sentient thought, it's all just reaction based on some mechanical receptors. Carnivorous plants IRL and their counterparts in NMS react via proximity switches, such as a few sticking out spikes in case of Venus Traps that cover the inside of their trap parts, which trigger them to close when something touches it. Sentient plants on the other hand are capable of movement and will generally run from a player once they got damaged. There are also plants IRL that react to being touched or damaged, but they never move, they will always act via same mechanisms as carnivorous plants and for example close all of their leaves for better protection, but they never move. And even the plants that do move, such as Tumbleweed, they will just roll with the wind and gravity, but the sentient plants here move away from the player. That means they know where the danger comes from and can move accordingly to it. It might indicate sentience or it can also indicate that these plants have some receptors that allow them to see something that's not directly touching them via distance, so either sight or vibrations detectiors like some insects have on their antenae.

If you actually own a leviathan when you first encounter a living frigate it will actually give you an option to ask about the leviathans to which they will just flat out tell you that they aren't the same. Nope trying to ruin the video, i genuinely enjoyed it. Just trying to also make sure what you say is true. (Or maybe I'm wrong, Who knows!)

    "Conventional definitions of life are fuzzy when it comes to the NMS universe" ... well, it's fuzzy everywhere. It's through religion that we've manufactured this conceited "dominance" over intelligence and/or life. It's this "fuzziness" that makes defining Emergence in science so difficult. Intelligence is a spectrum, not a true-false scenario. I actually think that NMS embracing this was extremely smart as it also allows for far more creative creatures than the biblical "us and them" dichotomy.
