I've decided to start taking photos again because this game has improved so much:

Just a couple of your every day NMS environments:

This game, man ...

Whenever I can jump back into the game, I'll join you in posting some images!! ;D

When you do eventually jump back in, start from fresh with Survival mode. Trust me, although the game has been balanced much better now, it comes into it's own in Survival mode. And no excuses either. If a 58 year old man like myself can cope with Survival mode then I'm certain you two can.
And just so you can feel the real impact of the graphical improvements, load it in without the updates and play for an hour first. Then load in the updates.

I wish I can get into this again. I lasted 10 minutes before I gave up. Sorry no screenshots from me.

What is it about the game that bothers you? Did you play Survival as I suggested? Trust me, persevere until you've mastered the system and it will suddenly click. There's a reason more and more youtube channels are starting to play NMS, lots of people like watching as well as playing and the Reddit community is one of the biggest there is. Just push on and forget what was said about the game.
Don't get all Freudian on me.

I bought the game on what they promised and that appealed to me. The game still isn't what they promised. I don't want to play survival because it's not my thing. I'm not denying it's a robust game though.

But how do you know it's not what they promised if you haven't played it for long? Don't listen to all the nonsense the media put out, most of that was misinterpretation of lies. There are a few things Sean promised would be in the game and isn't, but largely speaking the game is close to what he described initially and more than what he promised eventually. Tell me what you think was promised and I'll tell you whether it's fake or true. Trust me on this one, I've never followed a developer or game so intently.
Just playing with the lighting makes so much difference. It's also handy that you can mine a lot of stuff so if you really take your time you can change the way something looks by removing some of the trees or the rocks. I didn't do that here but I have in other shots. I'd like to have trimmed the bottom left of my Alice in Pirate Bay shot:

The biggest thing is no ending. I can't find the drive to playing it just to survive.
I haven't seen any media talking about the game and you know I had the 'judge it for myself' when the reviews rolled in.
You like the game gribs and I can no longer find a reason to play. But I'm not saying it's a bad game, it just isn't for me.

Well, that's fair enough but there ARE goals. It's not really a game to play to an end. It's like Minecraft in that sense. But, if you don't like it, you don't like it. :)

There might be goals but they have to be goals I want to do or at least contribute to the main goal I want to do.
A couple of new ones.

They just need to sort the rain out a bit. I still think it's a good shot though:

What happens if two people make bases right next to eachother?

Only one base allowed per solar system, unless it's in a different mode, in which case two bases can occupy the same space.

But what if you make your base while offline?

It probably wouldn't register for anyone else but you'd still have access to your own base if you then went online.

It took quite a while that one. I had to mine a lot of rocks and trees just to leave those two sitting there.
This is me in photo obsessive mode:

The second planet in the middle picture. There's a lighter patch, maybe clouds, that sorta looks like a face.

For some reason I was looking for something bigger, but now you've highlighted it, it's difficult to understand why I didn't see it.

Nice. I watched 5 mins of one of your streams the other day and you didn't reply to my comment :-(

Is the dust cloud a new visual effect? Can't remember seeing that before.

Oh, man, I didn't realise. If I'd have known I would have replied. I'm just getting used to how it all works and wasn't keeping up with chat at first. Now I use my laptop while I'm playing so I WILL see your replies. I'm also using a mic, so you'll be able to hear my whiny dog voice. :)
The dust clouds aren't new, just enhanced. I've also used a filter to create a more 'stark' image.

When do you normally stream?

At the moment I don't have any particular time but I'm hoping to make it around 6 - 7 oclock. I'm trying to work around all the other NMS streamers so I don't clash ... and lose potential viewers.
Made a second thumbnail just in case I die and have to start again. I'm not sure if it's too dark:
