sometimes i boot up no man’s sky and it feels less like a videogame and more like a fever dream where god handed me a box of crayons labeled “incomprehensible geology” and said “go nuts.” like yeah sure this planet has blue grass, a sky the color of fruit punch, and thirty-foot worm things that scream like dial-up internet. and somehow the lore hand-waves it all away with “oh yeah, the universe is broken on a fundamental level btw.”
