You will see an honorable mention of NMS in the upcoming Hobbit Plays post for this week. I had a bit of a spell where I logged in earlier on Friday evening after work (01/31/25) to flew around the universe, pick up some new tech from previous updates, and zen out just a bit while I was waiting for the gang to be ready for some gaming a bit later. NMS is still by far one of my favorite games to date. I just love this game and all it has too offer.
