is there any reason to get to another galaxy.

[weiss]

so, i tried to google it but i get just totorials how to get to said center of the universe.
i mean, i´ve been there and am now in the hilbert dimension ... but ... has it actually any sense (aside from story) to get through these centers?

i heard the last one eissentam ... is there any reason to reach thatone? xD

[Numenorean]

Not really; the initial "purpose" that the developers gave to players was to get to the center of the galaxy as mean to have a purpose; but it is not really a mean.

Everything is procedural, so every galaxy is made of the same finite number of assets you have in the game, so you will see again the same combinations of parts for ships, animals and plants, no matter how many galaxies you visit.

The biggest limitation of the game is that you can generate procedurally a galaxy, but if you have 300 parts to create ships, eventually no matter what, you will end up with a similar design at one point. This of course apply for everything in the game; the only thing that will mostly "different" is the terrain; although even with that there is only so many planets with the same grass and rocks artifacts on it that look unique; before you start to see the patterns there.

I would say don't bother to focus on other galaxies; you have so much to visit in the initial galaxy that makes everything else pretty redundant. Some people never leave a system; just to tell you how much you can do depending on how you want to play the game.

so, in short, theres no reason to jump through those centers other then... reaching eventually eissentam? which ... is not really different then all the other galaxies... aside of it that you can brag about that you reached eissentam x3

nya ok, luckily, i have a base in euclid so, i was able to jump back. tho i found for some reason my first settlement in the hilbert dimension which (iunno if that is important or not) has an A rank so i was like oh wao A rank? it can only get 1 rank better.
so yea thats my reason to traverse between euclid and hilbert now x3.

but thanks for the explanation nome =3

Trying to visit all of them personally. They do differ a little in feel if you do some exploration but I'll agree, mostly the same.

Eissentam is the 10th galaxy.
The last one (255th galaxy) is Iousongola.
And no, there is no point in visiting any new galaxies. Exception: You want to do it - that is all the reason it will need.

To give a short breakdown:
There are lush galaxies - they will have more player friendly environments and will provide you with a constant stream of paradise planets.
There are harsh galaxies - well, the complete opposite to lush ones, as you would've guessed already.
There are normal galaxies - these are mixed ones.
There are empty/ancestral galaxies - which aren't empty but will provide more anomaly-planets.

If you want to be more alone out there or if you're just interested in what you might find out there or if you just want to go exploring - then go and change galaxies.
If you're not interested in jumping to other galaxies, then don't do it.

how do you see what for a type a galaxy is? aka lush, harsh, normal and so on :o?

[taniwhat]

When you do the jump the Galaxy core is a particular colour. You can also look it up because they have already been explored by other players.

That said, some of the less hostile ones have surprisingly beautiful planet so it's worth looking around.

[NZ.Zero]

yes.
there are 4 types of galaxies. Most are normal but some area also empty, harsh and lush, they have different probabilites of different planet types, so not essential but easier if you like certain planet types. Its true though that there's nothing _unique_ in other galaxies.

Also, if you want to use online glyphs, you need a base near a portal in a galaxy so you can use the glyphs of that galaxy.

[Lucky Luc]

Do the 3 type, normal(like Euclid) Lush and Harsh. After that it's rinse and repeat.

... in fact there are 256 galaxies but the last one is Odyalutai and can only be reached by invitation only (i.e. you have to follow a fellow Traveller who has a base there and build your own base to be able to return)

... in fact there are 257 galaxies and the last one is Yilsrussimil.
And neither Odyalutai nor Yilsrussimil do matter which renders the number back to 255.

I prefer to explore Lush galaxies. I'm on the lookout for "almost" paradise worlds where we find sentinel presence, something off a little bit, maybe a hot shower but not too harsh.

[weiss]

again, how do i know if it is a lush galaxy or a harsh one etc. i got told that i can see it on the galaxies core color ... but which color indicates what? ... i mean ... i could just look onto the wiki now ... imma edit this post if i find something there, if this post isnt edited within 5~10 minutes feel free to answer if anyone knows xD cause that means i didnt found anything.

aaand here comes the edit:
found it
https://gyazo.com/bdea272cc2585e8ae36b90737936f37a xD.
interesting tho :o.

[Krash Megiddo]

You can look up the galaxy name on the 3rd party list. The first lush galaxy is #10 Eissentam

while you have right (according to the wiki) are those galaxies not longer reachable.
i quote the wiki entry

Release - Introduced to the game.
Atlas Rises
The 256th galaxy and subsequent ones were removed from the universe; they cannot be reached through normal gameplay any longer. Now the 255th galaxy leads back to the 1st. To prevent players getting stuck in higher numbered galaxies, those lead back to the lowered numbered galaxies: 256th leads to 2nd, 257th leads to 3rd etc.
The New Beginnings primary mission introduced a choice of four different colored galaxy types.

with this exists effectivly only 255 galaxies as of now. maybe they will do something with those removed ones and planning something who knows, by the way.

Reachable they are but not through normal gameplay.
And that's why I wrote:

Which you even did quote.
