No Man's Sky: 10 Coolest Things You Must Do

9. Follow An NPC Ship Through Space And See Where It Leads You

You may not be able to see the customised starships of your various friends online, you will see plenty of other ships flying by as you head from one destination to the next. Some of these may want to blast you out of space and steal your goodies, but even more will just be going about their business.

These more placid NPCs should be the focus of your attention here, as they offer an interesting prospect. If you're feeling a little bored with the idea of following your own intuition (or that of Atlas) to your next planet or galaxy, why not see how long you can tail an NPC's craft? Who knows where these folk will take you!

Something about letting go of the control of your destiny is quite liberating, and it's an experience that so few other games offer to their players. You may find yourself feeling lonely in No Man's Sky's great wide open every once in a while, but don't ever believe that you're totally alone.
