With all the stuff being added to No Man’s Sky I’m wondering what will make Light No Fire distinct.

What can LNF add to differentiate it from NMS?

    NMS is for all intents and purposes now a testbed for LNF features. But LNF is not going to have the same story as NMS.

      Still, that just sounds like the players will become too familiar with the mechanics that LNF doesn’t have quite the same impact at launch. Wouldnt want to burn everyone out of your new mechanics before you release the game they are supposed to be featured in imo

        what makes you suppose that backporting new development to an old product takes ANYTHING AWAY from the new product?

        It’s your terminology that needs to chill out. And your assumptions.

          Look, I asked a question about a game, and you came in here telling me what to do.

          I’m open to having a discussion, but the way you started it was needlessly combative.

            you posted a whining, hyperbolic query that in no way is based in reality. that’s the discussion we’re having. and my reply is: let the developers of these games MAKE THEIR GAMES without your misguided and asinine assumptions.

            “Does anyone worry that backporting features to NMS may slow LNF’s development cycle?”

            That’s how a normal human would seek info. Telling me I’m being needlessly combative for pointing out your shitty attitude is hilarious. That you’re a MOD, is just… wow… gonna block this community now so I will no longer see your bullshit, because I don’t even want to get on this train.
