maybe not call it No Man's Land for the fossils that respectfully survived WW1 and WW2 and somehow plays this game

There's no one around that survived WW1 anymore, the last one died in 2012 at the age of 110. A person surviving WW1 would be 122 by now (technically 124, but some younger than 18 got in). The oldest person alive is 116 at the moment. No man's land wasn't as much of a thing in WW2 due to the war being different.

A more plausable reason is because there already is a game with that title and a title with No Man's whatever in a new game from Hello Games might still hold unpleasant memories for some.

Maybe No man'd planet or no mans earth.

i think its psychology guys. if you say "light no fire" whats the first thing someone is going to do? light a fire?
if you say "no mans sky" whats the first thing someone is going to do? fly across the sky. which is exactly what we get in NMS a bunch of people flying spaceships across "no mans sky" just to say they could when it is impled by the title "they shouldnt".

I hope it's deeper than that.

sure, i hope it is too, just saying, all a title has to do is "draw you in" and I think this title does it by saying "this cant be done," and the reaction is "the hell i can't!"

To me, this phrase has always been used in a metaphorical context, where in its most simplistic form, it's the asking of someone(s) not to formulate issues or situations that initiates/creates escalation or, might cause additional escalations ...

(example)

"Elon and Vivek went into their first consultation meeting with the intent to light no fire and yet, by the time they were done, all the establishment players were scorched in shame !"

have you ever thought about them merging it with nms ?
Many attempts in NMS are also just experiments what goes down well with the player.......
I don't even find LNF that interesting I would probably play it as a rabbit like many would do, it looks fun.
