lay off lay off hey what's up everybody my name is Jeff Bakalar and we're gonna be playing a game called no man's sky porridge I've been referring to it for the last 48 hours the man I'm joined by a couple of onlookers mostly mark visalia hello mark he's gonna be taking your questions live but there's something you would like to talk about or ask about this game please by all means ask away as you can see I'm having a little bit of trouble getting off this planet I'm gonna fix that right now so all people want to know what this game is and I'm getting lit up right now I need to find my ship oh here we go okay so a lot of people want to know what this game is no man sky is a space exploration slash crafting survival game actually a lot of it is survival and a lot of it is spent crafting items upgrading ships and doing that kind of thing so this is only a couple hours I'm not enough you see like all the time you'll be spending in the menu adding fuel to things and upgrading things some of that gets a little boring but once you take off things kind of get a little cooler so right now I'm being told I need to visit a an abandoned where a some sort of manufacturing plant place so this will be the first time that I take off from this planet so let's do it Oh oh we're fine but I thought we lost the feed okay so now I'm taking off and we've entered the atmosphere either atmosphere - pretty cool you can turn around and sort of see the planet you just came from that is neat that looks really cool does it not so again a lot of this game is moving from star system to star system gathering resources putting them all together to give yourself more units which is the currency of the game and giving yourself more upgrades to your suit your ship etc markt we have any questions just yet nothing of value oh that's helpful okay well no I feel like nobody asked them what's that so it's weird there's a lot of asking about upgrades there's not there's stuffs out there you get more impressive range with the way you can mine elements the little laser you started shooting before that mines elements yeah so that's we're going to do right now this one which is called languor ba mhm nine seven five we're gonna go to that right now now I'm traveling pretty quickly but it's telling me it's still gonna take about what four minutes to get there so the beauty of this is you can enter warp pulse drive and get there a little quicker which is a lot of fun this part this is the fun part because you only have so II asked why can't I do that all time because you only have a finite amount of pulse drive Buell right so the more asteroids alright the more asteroids you destroy in space the more you hoard the element you need to power your pulse Drive alright so I'm making I'm coming in hot pretty hot to this manufacturing facility there's a planet I've never been to and the game uses its logic to sort of you know kind of create this on the fly using a set of algorithms so I'm landing right here this is a this is a novelty planet it's very scary there's a lot of strange growth it's a lifeless planet the weather isn't I like that we're pretty mellow here on this lifeless time so yeah yeah we can so we can name this planet so maybe I'll do that right now I'll show you guys how that works so the planet I'm on right now is this guy right we saw with the 975 so I'm gonna rename it and we're just gonna call this planet I think something what it's gonna call this planet something that hits kind of close to home we're just gonna call it gonna call it been box will do bed fogs and Rubin cuz he's a good guy and now he's got a planet named after not bad so the next time someone discovers this which would probably be never they'll know it was named after a great great man a great journalist Ben Fox Rubin you I got a planet named after me alright there's a lot of controversy about people running into each other in this game if you know anything about probabilities it's pretty much impossible so if we're not gonna spend a lot of time with that but you know so again like you see right there inventory for a lot of this game is moving stuff that you have in your exosuit backpack into the starship that you're travelling in and that's not a whole lot of fun games that do force you to spend a lot of time in menus I kind of struggle with there's fun stuff like leaving that planet was fun but having to move aluminum back and forth it's not maybe the best use of my time all right so I'm gonna check out this way point and the bottom right usually gives you a good idea of what your next objective is so I'm just gotta find an entrance to this little joint here okay oh I see what's gonna happen here all right so now I'm gonna be in a little bit of trouble because the second you start kind of screwing with some of the technology on the planet these drones that are around they get upset and they start asking questions and that's when you have to defend yourself so let's just start blasting this the hell right now and we'll see what happens there you go the sentinel reinforcement situation is happening that's going to be annoying me right or at least until like I kill all of them which they come and wave so the enemies come in waves and you kind of yeah they won't stop until you either kill them all where they can't call each other for backup like this guy's hiding around and now I feel like he's getting have enough time to call for backup it's kind of stuff except if he is calling for backup yeah hopefully that all right let's go back to shooting this door come on come on come on come on come on come on come on oh great reload and the door is that way so the Waypoint usually in these you find marketplace access you find blueprints to build new things a lot of the game has you building warp drives which allows you to travel through star systems you can work the next star system when you do that you need a war fuel cell which are costly but now a part of making a fuel cell is this thing called a piece of ant antimatter you need antimatter to create a warp drive and now I'm learning how to build a piece of antimatter which as you can read from the text there with this knowledge I can now create warp drives but I needed an electron vapor who's got one of those I don't know we got to find one of those so let's look at my inventory maybe I can craft an electron vapor I can but I need suspension fluid so it's like this wild goose chase on the hunt to find all of these like trickle down elements that are all used to create the thing you actually need if it comes off like I don't like this game that's not entirely true I do like this game it's just the monotony of this kind of stuff after a while gets a little kind of repetitive mark has a question what's up yeah I got it you could buy a lot of the stuff you need to let's say that yeah which I'll do right now sure no no none of that none of that no I would might be useful that would probably be a cool element marks talking about like leaving like little breadcrumbs for people to follow but that's not what this game is or what this games trying to be I think like the social you know elements of this game have kind of been blown out of proportion but look I got being focused Sigma so this is an upgrade to my laser that allows for faster mining so this is quicker mining I like the sound of that I'm gonna go into my multi-tool menu here but I don't have an extra slot oh wait maybe I do okay oh maybe it's already installed yeah it looks like any of that installed well that's good but if I wanted to add a new piece of tech I couldn't do it I like that it just has been fox proven that's very odd yeah so I need another slot here see if there's no slot there is a room but I haven't unlocked that upgrade to open up a slot so you get what we're dealing with here okay now I need to craft antimatter Oh life support systems another survival mechanic kicking in you're spinning a lot of plates I'm going to load up my life support with some Carboni and there you go now I'm back up to a hundred percent Oh goal this is person I've ever got goal that's cool the objective is to stay alive keep searching and eventually you you the game really is encouraging you to get to the center of the galaxy or universe I believe the galactic core is what they call it again my inventory is full so I have the ability to move some of these resources to my ship now I just put that gold into my ship and there it is so is there a zero comment mark feel free if it's you know not the worst thing you've ever read nothing of value which is fine yeah I mean like look I have I seen planets that look a little bit like this yeah I have that doesn't mean like this isn't technically unique it is no you can only mine certain things so if you scan certain little icons will pop up and let you know what kind of elements you're dealing with so the lightning bolt there is some sort of like fuel based element these icons will give you okay that's a piece of new technology that's pretty rad so I get the blueprint for that and I could kind of just you know maybe access something like that when I finally have enough slots I just got a gret whatever that thing is yeah you want to fly around that's fine no no that's fine I feel like I wanted to remember oh I need to craft antimatter all right we can do that I just want to create this thing I need I need right all I need to buy suspension fluid now let's just make sure there wasn't a market place inside because a lot of the game like I said is based off trading and selling and so let's see doesn't seem to be any kind of store neither is that so yeah I'm gonna have to fly around and look for a place that I can buy some of the elements I need to make to be able to get you could take you forever we need more fuel you need to be able to travel at a very quick pace better ship better better technology to get there right now I do not have the technology I do have enough to get off this little spot now there's really no expert you know there's really no sort of you know place marker or Waypoint that says oh here's where you can get yes yes so that was that's where I was going to find the blueprints of how to make the antimatter you remember how I collected that yeah but now I need to find a place where I can either buy suspension fluid or find the necessary ingredients for it which as we're learning is one electron vapor which is made up of one thing of suspension tracking home I have not noticed different gravity that's a very good question I have not noticed different obviously different weather different it's been a lot of different you know animals oh here's a here's something yeah planet that only had acid rain does and you have to constantly sort of balance the exosuit you know sort of ability to fight that stuff law so this doesn't necessarily look like a marketplace it does look like I can get some cool stuff out of here alright so I got some more blueprints let's check out what's in here okay some multi-tool tech on the discovering again and these things are scattered everywhere like you fly long enough you'll find it I don't know this thing it always just sort of rewards you with units beginning yeah pretty much I need to find they'll respond accordingly some of the animals you run into our super stupid and they kind of just like look the other way and they won't fit in care if you do anything to them others will be like what's that you shot me with your laser although we're about to fight that's pretty terrifying I don't know so these pop up they're just basically achievements this says says I traveled 7500 youth which is like my second unit of measurement is this thing though I want whatever this thing's got yeah I mean you can you know you can fly around endlessly you can you know log animals like there's no we discovered there's no life on this planet so we're not gonna run into any animals this yes this is her idiom it's a good element I found it useful before but you know for our media purposes I don't need it but gold I've never had so I'm gonna collect well eventually you can like yeah I don't know I haven't in my other save I haven't reached far enough where I can interact with them of any sort of okay so here it says base ingredient suspension fluid can be bought from the galactic trade terminals oh that's you know we gotta find a galactic crater what I'm trying to do back not in this sieve I have been to one of my other save and there's just sort of these like it look like Airport waiting room and you get in there and you you never see people other people playing the game you see aliens no you see alien looking sort of things Oh what's this dad thing what do you think should I go there it looks like it could be something landing is great like it's super easy and games easy to play there's just a lot to unpack all right again this doesn't look like it's a marketplace keep going weird is just like a plant Oh what was that I want to interact with this chair whoa look at that the future is weird I love other like oh you know we need in this game a freaking rotating chair that there's literally nothing that's all right look I mean I think that's kind of like the the draw to this game is like oh there really isn't a lot of stuff that you've seen before the crafting and all that stuff is is unique but like the notion of like hey every single planet you visit is going to be unique in some way I think that for me is enough of a draw to entice the sort of average gamer it's really I mean you can't deny like the notion guy that is pretty cool alright thrusters are filled let's find a galactic trade station where well there wasn't he sure as hell it wasn't gonna be any fluid in there and he that fluid man here's another question mark yeah all right all right peace out boring has been fun to release laughing whoa oh man see now we've done it now we done did it now we done did it cuz now there's hostile activity detected I'm just gonna have to warp you want me to fight with them oh boy now I've killed them before come on come on line up let's go oh yeah eat it what I overheated oh boy done shield down we gotta boogie we gotta boogie warp oh I can't warp once I've gotten into a yeah we're in trouble here guys I just need I can't warp once you're in a dog fight and that's that and then they give you like a Stephen Hawking quote to somehow make it all better so now this is weird so now okay so what's so what's interesting is you can revisit your gravesite so you see that thing right there that's my grave site on a planet I kind of need to go to there to collect all the stuff then I think because everything's gone now I have my elements but all my gadget tree and all that junk is gone so should I go get it no start fresh now we'll all get it eventually but it'll be there yeah I don't know if I feel like if I die again I'm kind of screwed dude I am not messing I already discovered Ben Fox agree with what a great screen grab that is let's let's just grab that alright soo about this planet you already discovered this what about you what about you undiscovered guess what we're going to Trapper John bagel that's the weird going pulse engine off what did that sing oh I gotta get out of the way this space so now if I was moving at this speed it would take me an hour and 28 minutes to get there oh no I'm sorry eight seconds I don't know eight minutes it would take but who's nobody got time for that we're gonna pulse right in there and it'll take us thirty five this part just reminds me of like Spaceballs ludicrous speed go it is but you can only mine stuff in space you can't mind like you can't fly around I don't think you can fly around a planet and just like shoot stuff it doesn't work and we're about to break through the atmosphere here on Trapper John bagel no oh so here's a really interesting looking planet purple and green I don't know what the hell is going on here oh this is kind of cool all right this is a interesting looking place oh yeah that's the first thing we should do so I'm gonna just fly around until I see a spot that looks like it's worth landing on usually a question mark will pop up man this is a weird looking planning on guys it's not like you can can't really choose that there we go all right hopefully this is something the lactic played in this they are totally you totally can I wouldn't recommend doing that but again like you can do whatever the hell you want all right no cannot change the point okay we're gonna save here just in case I die again okay Oh Oh getting shot this place is toxic as alright this isn't really doing anything for us that's a weird floating rock Jew to kill the rock wow look at the plant life on this plate pretty pretty wacky that's weird I will take all of the copper from you this is never seen something like this though like a big old sky alright I'm done shooting that you want me to shoot mushrooms they're probably just carving mushrooms like I can't take it what is that what is this this thing arrived in 20 seconds this could be good kids this could be a place where I can buy something no it's the same thing okay I'm gonna let's get back to the ship and uh the first like almost fully water planet I came across was pretty bad yeah you know what you can't go in the water I just wanna see if I could shoot this not see you can't mine anything off those floats this floating a typical typical planet bagel man but this is a crazy-looking planet let's see anything up another question mark hopefully this will let me do stuff I mean flying around like a lunatic there's a little more promising yeah I think we might be okay here kid is minding me from this looks like it better be a market place on you somewhere right looks like a Costco yeah all right starting to rain a little bit they got my space um alright find that antimatter thing I'm gonna shoot this alright they're gonna come back there they're pissed yeah to the bully no I think we learn from the last time that the second you kind of get in there they just bail or just run into that wall for a second there we go yeah there's variations of the robots though there are you know sort of like Walker's that's a big part of the game what is this okay see so there's some of this sometimes you kind of have to like pick one of these and hope for the best I'm gonna say drop pod okay but didn't like that I choose one of the others or no oh no I'm screwed I can't oh yeah maybe some movie more chairs the only thing I've noticed is that they are their aggressiveness varies drastically yeah they'll carry different stuff yeah it was I didn't realize that oh yeah like you'll drop a lot of artifacts the big problem right now is I can't freaking find a place to trade or buy I think that's really hindering my ability to create you know a sort of okay well I feel like we're pretty close to being done here yeah me too yeah I think maybe that's what we'll call it quits right yeah we're done oh I hope you enjoyed watching no man's sky oh hey hold on we'll fight you want to see you guys yeah let's get babies it's got a guy and let's see what this freaking thing like oh here's a I don't even know what does that even look like scanning that was a city car se-jin yeah no one's ever seen this no no there is in this that dog pig fish river it is it is kind of cool but yeah that's that's the takeaway this is a new thing too oh look at this whoa get away crabby face holy he is not happy I guess so right yeah okay scan them yeah I gotta kill them up sorry all right there you go there's a crash course no pun intended of no man's sky I hope you dug it thank you so much for watching we've got more questions about the game hit me up on Twitter and Oh
