Light No Fire Is WAY MORE AMBITIOUS Than You Might Think!!

At first glance, Hello Games' latest game, Light No Fire doesn't seem as ambitious as their previous game No Mans Sky. But I'm here to tell you why Light No Fire is in fact, way more ambitious than you might think and some of the facts about the game will likely BLOW YOUR MIND!!

9 Reasons Why Light No Fire WILL BE AMAZING - • 9 Reasons Why Light No...
Light No Fire is a game about adventure, building, survival and exploration together. Set on a fantasy planet the size of Earth, it brings the depth of a role playing game to the freedom of a survival sandbox.
A Multiplayer Earth
Carve a life together. Meet players from across the globe, build a life, explore and survive together. Construct persistent buildings and communities, or strike out alone to discover the world for others.
A Procedural Earth
A truly open world, with no boundaries, at a scale never attempted before. A massively varied and dense planet filled with immersive biomes, unique enemies and valuable resources to discover.
A Fantasy Earth
Light No Fire presents you with an ancient earth to uncover. One where you're not the hero. Thick with lore, mystery and a constant fight for survival. Inspired by the adventure, charm and imagination that we love from classic fantasy.
An Unexplored Earth
Every mountain can be climbed, and below them lie endless vistas, oceans and continents perhaps no others have seen. Who will climb the tallest mountains, who will find the deepest sea? Set sail across vast oceans and rivers, ride wild beasts through fantastical landscapes, fly dragons over undiscovered landscapes.

[@AdjectiveBlazkowicz]

Although I am excited for Light No Fire, I disagree with the whole size argument. Having a big map doesn't make a game more ambitious and map sizes were not the main selling points of Witcher 3 and GTA V, it was that they were filled to the brim with content and stuff to do that made them successful must-haves. Making an engaging story, interesting characters and tie it all together with side-quests, mechanics and content over several kilometers is insanely hard. If we were to go by just size, then Starfield would have been a sounding success, yet it is more than clear that size is a complement, not an element of value.

[@natecrosman7732]

Yeah, I get going "wow look at the size" and moving on, but focusing on it as if it's ambitious...well, large maps aren't as impressive as they used to be. As you said, the amount of content is what matters. If you have a small living room packed full of fun things to do, you'd rather spend time there than a relatively empty warehouse.

[@AGIANTWEASEL]

anyone know if the planet is universally the same map for everyone that will play the game, or each planet is individually procedurally generated? I'd really love if they used procedural generation to create one singular map that everyone "shares" cuz I can already imagine huge communities forming online around this new mountain someone has discovered, or an undiscovered species of plant that is only found in this area of the world. If it's like this, not only will it allow people to experience what it was like to discover things on Earth again (not to mention the very daunting idea of wanting to travel to the other side of the world, or even just a portion in this game), but it would be much more sustainable for the developers and allow them to put in handcrafted details in special areas and even update the map universally for everyone. In the same way we grow fond of smaller maps, everyone could grow fond of an entirely new planet that we all share

I doubt very much that a studio of this size would be able to manage a full on mega server like that. I think it’s probably more realistic to look toward games like Ark of Valheim to get a sense of the scope of multiplayer possible for a game like this.

[@sdube001]

My guess is the mechanics used in NMS for multi, single, pvp, and offline play will also be used in LNF. I'm usually in single unless I play with a friend. That way I see the builds others make, but don't bother as much with lag in places like the Anomoly.

Hello Games we love ya but please don't make this another NMS release situation Edit: No Man's Sky is one of my favorite games of all time, and I will never stop defending Hello Games until my dying breath. But what cannot be ignored, is that they lied to their customers. They made promises, sold those promises for $60, and then didn't deliver. That's bad. Yes they more than made up for it, but you wanna know what's better than making up for a lie? Not lying in the first place! Now with Light No Fire, they're repeating their behavior that the had with No Man's Sky. They're making these huge promises, that sound utterly groundbreaking with our current technology. That's what they did with No Man's Sky, and guess what? It released as a broken mess. There's no guarantee that the same won't happen with Light No Fire. And sure we could just wait for Hello Games to fix it like with NMS, but there's no guarantee of that happening either. People have a right to be angry at getting scammed, because that is what happened. They also have a right to want to avoid getting scammed again. I don't at all think HG was being malicious when they did what they did with NMS, and they definitely made up for it, but you can't keep making a mistake and make up for it over and over. Eventually you gotta learn and stop making the mistake in the first place. Edit 2: Why do you guys think that Hello Games is above criticism just because they made a good game? They're a corporation, and like all corporations they need to be held accountable. I'm not some rando who doesn't know anything about NMS, I've been here since 2016. It's not sacrilege to criticize people who made a mistake. We're spending our hard-earned money on their games, the least the can do is be honest about what they're delivering. What happens if LNF comes out a broken mess, just like NMS? Will you still defend it then? What if HG decides not to put as much work into fixing it because they know their fans will defend them regardless? Will you still defend it then? This whole idea that you can't dare criticize Hello Games is the progenitor of what's happening with Bethesda, or Ubisoft, or Activision. Those AAA studios put out garbage because they know they have fans who will still play it regardless. If we stay on the road we're on now with Hello Games, that's where we'll end up.

So, that is his goal - and while yes, it'd definitely be best to release it not nearly as bare bones as NMS: they've been working for five years so far, and clearly learned from the infamously bad NMS release. In fact, we might not have gotten the desire and concept of just continually updating/improving on that game, _forever,_ had it not been such a horrible launch.

[@FalconFlurry]

I think a game that is this open world should be online only, otherwise it would probably be boring and lonely. But if the world is truly as big as the earth, then even if all 8 billion people were playing there would be lots of room for everyone. Even if there were a million players in the game, each player would have 150 square kilometers of land (not counting oceans). That's the size of a small city, all to yourself. So I think it would be fairly easy to build a settlement and live on your own without being disturbed. IMO, if I wanted to do that I would still prefer it to be online because even if I don't want to see anybody, I think that knowing that there are other people out there makes the game feel more alive.

I'm also a bit worried about the biomes, and will we run into a desert, then snowy, then desert, in 'strips', if that makes sense, or will they be convincing and feel like real places. Will there be seasons where this stuff can change? As far as them messing it up at first, it's likely!

Crazy that the odds of someone stumbling upon your home would be pretty low, even though millions of players could be on the same server. I wonder if everyone will play in the same world? Looking forward to this game, nice vid and hope you keep posting updates 😊

[@kode-man23]

I imagine that certain locations will be more beneficial than others to establish permanent encampments. Sure you can find your own little isolated corner of the map, but if it’s rich in a particular crafting material… you might get some company before too long 😂

[@Akiramaster]

@@kode-man23 not really, people will not just know about that place out of no where. So if you keep to yourself and it's isolated, even if it's resource heavy. It's highly unlikely that someone will find it. This will not be like enshrouded, ark etc. Where you can just check up maps that others made with added locations, since every player in theory can have their own singleplayer game with the same "tiny" map. Because no one other than you have been to the place, so it's not mapped, so they wont know that it's rich in crafting materials.

Also there are rivers which NMS doesn't have!

I really want an Earth simulator. Basically a giant single planet game with beautiful graphics and in depth gameplay that is a multiplayer for everyone to play in the same server and no single player. So you can build cities, governments, protect forested areas to prevent cities to destroy the nature, and it would basically be a society simulator more than earth. The planet would be smaller than earth irl because not 8 billion people would play obviously

[@ro-gamingftw3327]

3:40 yea but despite those maps being 'small' they are hand crafted, a large map means nothing if there isn't anything in it to explore.

[@TheXboxSux]

And how much content can a team this size really add to a world earth sized in a short order of time? It's all too grandiose. You just know people are going to data mine the shit out of this game and find out how much "content" there actually is right at launch.

[@mxwit2466]

@@TheXboxSux im expecting the map to be a lot like valheim, where you have a bunch of dungeons scattered around and its more about finding a pretty and safe place to settle. I doubt there will be much to explore other than going on long trips between biomes to get to specific landmarks, or going to a certain biome to farm for specific materials, which tbf works a lot better than how NMS handles it and I wouldn't have an issue with it. but exploring the whole planet would just be pointless

[@stormaggeden]

It sounds pretty neat. Honestly, when i first heard of it, I immediately thought of Wurm Online. Most people haven't heard of it, but it is an MMO where players work together on large islands to fully terraform the land, farm mine and craft, and fight monsters. Wurm Online definitely feels its age. (I think the release was around 2011) So Im looking forward to a big community world. (I do hope Light No Fire has a single-player mode, however, as Im sure it will get frustrating fast when people start hoarding territories, and there is no where fun to build or explore.)

My biggest worry is in fact about the procedural generation. Maybe the templates they're using will be dynamic and varied enough to create things that actually feel unique. I hope so. It doesn't matter if you have a quintillion planets to explore if many of them look near identical.

[@R.a.f.a.e.l.]

Yeah, I agree. But given the backslash following Starfield, I' pretty sure Sean and his team have seen Bethesda's mistakes and the mistakes of other Open World games and are fully aware that just making stuff big for the sake of big will not mean much. I'm thinking they'll bring something new to the table indeed.

If they actually deliver on their promises for this game, make the combat feel good (hoping they take from games like Dragon's Dogma, Elden Ring, or Monster Hunter for combat inspiration), and create significantly more interesting quests then NMS, then this might be able to become one of my favorite game of all time.

4:30 Temper expectations people, every time a developer comes out with insane numbers people get insane expectations and get disappointed, it happened with NMS at launch, it happened more recently with Starfield, consider that NMS has being in development for 13 years, and so it will take LNF close to that time to get to where NMS is right now, It doesn't matter that they are reusing some of the tech, is a brand new game, with a different setting, with different level of graphical quality, if you expect it to be better than NMS in every aspect I promise you will be disappointed.

With all the traditional game play elements we all enjoy in mmorpg's like bossings, dungeons, raids, pvp, world vs world, arena ect.

[@YaGurlSaiyan]

I really believe that NMS was the platform Light No Fire mechanics were tested on. Hopefully the trailer was really actually game footage and not cinematic fluff. I think the Hello Games team learned from NMS release not to say anything about Light No Fire to garner any type of speculation that they never mentioned. Everything I heard was other people's speculation. So I'm waiting for the release info from then. Period. I did appreciate your observations of the trailer and will keep it just as that... Observation. Thanks for posting.

[@No-One.321]

im not sure how they make this be good and not shallow as a puddle. dont get me wrong i want them to nail but i just dont see how given what they have said it should be

[@alottalogic]

I see where everyone comes from that like NMS LNF could be as huge as the ocean but deep as a puddle, but way I see this is they have had 5+years to refine their tech and ideas, going from 18 quintillion planets to 1 allows alot more dense and depth to the world as well as they have altered how they use their progen formula to work with their own hand crafted pieces.... And most importantly. Going from a sci-fi setting to a fantasy world allows them to tap into a more D&D, elder scrolls, Witcher, etc etc type of content..... But this is just my opinions and thoughts but we'll see a new trailer in August along with the release date, so see you then

[@thisis4ever1]

hello games is the last great game developer out there. no other team has accomplished what they have and actually gave love to the game they created. they believed in themselves and the fanbase and delivered more than what was deserved or expected. do i want more from the game? yes so so much more but do i need it? no because they bounced back and gave us more than we needed

[@BoidGaming]

Game mode doesnt matter in nms no more, you see all bases from every mode

[@umbreoniteUwU]

The reason this concept sounds so nice to me is because, as much as I love no man’s sky, it is just *way* too big for there to be any sort of meaningful content in large quantities. The reason that maps in games are generally on a smaller scale is because the game devs have to look at every square foot of space and put things there intentionally, whether it be foliage or an NPC or a house. You can only expect humans to be able to handcraft so many square miles of map. In NMS, there’s way too much space to be handcrafted with any sort of interesting intention. But… a single, earth sized map with the procedural generation tech that they have? And with the mobs, minerals, and flora (probably mostly) predesigned? That’s more doable than 16 quintillion planets or whatever the number is. Though, some part of me does hope that once they figure out how to incorporate many different biomes on a singular planet, they can bring that over to NMS as well. I do also really hope that we’ll find flora and fauna in the appropriate areas instead of just scattered in all the biomes. I don’t want to see camels in the jungle and the desert and the tundra.

[@farroutman]

There's so much more they could actually do with NMS... makes me wonder, how good could LNF actually be. Think we've all had enough of buying games and ending up with pretty scenery and no game depth or variety in the games.

[@MeatyZeeg]

My actual main concern with Light no Fire is that it feels empty because the system doesn't actually react to you. The world should react to players in a sandbox, if it doesn't it will just feel like a boring open world sandbox and nothing else. This is the same issues Space Engineers, Minecraft, Creativerse, and even no man sky have. The world doesn't really react to you, which makes it feel dead and shallow. However a game like Kenshi, that world reacts to you, the game changes based on what the player is doing, however the game also changes because NPC's are also doing things even if you aren't around. I love what Sandbox games have done, however they need that next step to really bring in people into these massive worlds. They need a way to really anchor players and their actions. In Light No Fires case, if you got enough players together NPC's could start building in the area as well. Players could potentially form actual kingdoms this way, making the world truely feel alive. Take it a step further, groups coming into conflict we could see the NPC's also coming into conflict showing in game ramifications. So much you could do with a system like that in this kind of game.
