No Man's Sky Creator Talks About Stars, Oceans And More

No Man's Sky remains a mystery to most of us. I now have a decent idea of what you are going to be doing in the game, but there are still so many details that are yet to be fleshed out.

With that in mind,  game director Sean Murray took questions about No Man's Sky from the IGN community and a lot of it provided interesting answers. When asked about space phenomenon like Stars variety, Supernovas and Black Holes, Murray said:

We have a variety of different types of star, some of which are super rare, and you'll start to realise they'll tend to offer certain opportunities. In the videos already out there, as I zoom through the Galactic Map you get glimpses of different types, sizes and colours of stars, and more interestingly probably, different formations.

… Space has to be fun, and everything you find in it should offer interesting ways of playing. So for instance, a black hole could be a really cool gameplay element, but maybe a supernova isn't so much…

On top of that, he fielded questions on sea exploration too, which seems like it could be quite expansive indeed:

Some seas can be very deep, yes, and they can get dark. Maybe you'll find certain creatures down there, and other things besides – you'll have a light on your suit that'll help you see. But these places are likely to be dangerous. One of my favourite things, that never gets old for me, is that feeling when I find some underwater caves. There I am supposed to be testing the game, and suddenly I'm distracted 100 meters deep in a cave discovering new creatures and running out of air.

There is a lot more in the interview and I really encourage you to check it out. There is talk about exploration, weather effect, cross platform play as well as walking buildings. It's a good read if you have any interest in the game. Check it out.
