"No Man's Sky" is the kind of game you would want to go home to. A good reason to stay at home, relax and have fun. It can be a bit upsetting if you find yourself in the grave yard in an unknown planet. So, the primary question is perhaps how to survive the game and have hours of endless fun.
The "No Man's Sky" menu board is where it all began. One has to master all the buttons to know the different systems on how to fix the space ship, how to trade and other dauntless tasks. Every time you set on a new planet, always hit the "Option" button to go to the "Discoveries" panel.
Here, "No Man's Sky" players will see all the things they have discovered, like creatures, planets and creatures, and it will give you the chance to give them a ridiculous name. The trick is to upload all these information which will eventually give you more credits. You will know what needs to be uploaded because it has a red dot at the top left side.
Your "Exosuit" can only hold 250 units of common substance. Press and hold the "Triangle" button so you can unload all your collections to your ship which can store 500 units. The thing is that you can only trade stuff that is within your suit. The trick is to always keep a handy list of items in your suit ready for selling. If you are able to take up junk items, you may consider selling it to the highest bidder. In "No Man's Sky," a junk is always a junk so you better sell it right away.
Just like in the real world, or in the real universe, there is a vast expanse to discover. You may not be able to explore all the corners of the universe in your lifetime. As you play "No Man's Sky," you will certainly miss some of the 18 quintillion luminous bodies. But that is okay. A sound tip is just to set your own goal at your pace. Have fun and do not rush.
