Brighten up your Friday afternoon with a No Man’s Sky video which focuses on trade, including mining for resources on one planet and selling on another.
It’s simple really, as Sony explains.
“Resources are a vital part of exploration, trading and survival. No Man’s Sky has its own periodic table of elements – some familiar to our world, some new and unknown – and each one is used in different ways. Some can be used to craft new items and weapons once the player has learnt the technology.
“While planets might be unexplored, they aren’t necessarily uninhabited. Alien races have their own distinct languages, which can be learned a word at a time at ancient structures or through conversing with the aliens themselves. Unlock their vocabulary and your chance of a successful interaction increases, raising your standing with them.
“Common resources on one planet could be scarce in another – mining on one planet to sell on another can be a lucrative trade. Players can also craft Products from resources, which can be sold for higher prices – discover a certain race’s preferred Product and you can make a living from supplying them.”
We still have the Survive video to look forward to, presumably at some point next week.
Pre-order No Man’s Sky now from Amazon ahead of its August 10 release date(?)
