Obligatory notice: I play on Nintendo Switch. Now that I can do Nexus missions and earn quicksilver, are there recommendations on what I should work towards? I like that for most of the items I have to spend several days to get enough banked to buy stuff, but it makes me hyper-aware that I should be wise about it.

Like I already got the egg to get a living ship (love it!) and the -null- bobblehead because better shields seems like a nice thing to do for my ship, but what now? do I get more exhaust trails? Do I get more bobbleheads? What about the other backpack, I'm getting real tired looking at the default one.

I'd be very curious to hear about what order people picked things up in, or what made them make the choices they did. Anyone feel like sharing their preferred buys?

Wow, that's really interesting. I've played on PS4 but for the last few years, exclusively on PC so had no idea how different the experience is for other consoles. "28 days later vibe" I totally get that! It's been so many years playing this amazing game and I'm still not sure if I love or loathe that, it does often feel a bit spooky to stumble across a random player base on a random planet when it happens.

I wish they'd open up the building more. Like you, most of my efforts simply have four walls and a roof haha (though I did make a really cool base around some natural ring-shaped formations on an Expedition planet). Not sure if you've looked into glitch building (or if it's even possible on switch), but there are ways to 'hack' the build menu and create weirder / more interesting things. I don't have the patience for that though... it would be awesome if HG could find a way to create the 'hacks' as actual build tools, we'd get much more creative builds from more people I bet.
