− | ==== The Sacramento Dreamers ====
| |
− | | |
− | Test subjects from W/ARE's Sacramento Research Lab whose consciousness is stuck in satellite CJ-16. When the corruption began, Emily worked vigorously to save as many dreamers as possible. When unable to extract these last Sacramento dreamers due to immense degradation, memory fragmentation, and data corruption she reached out to the CSD for assistance. We would be advised to guide Emily's interactions with the dreamers, helping her trigger a distinct emotion or memory to identify that dreamer's memory block in the simulation mainframe.

− | These '''12 remaining dreamers''' are listed below:

− | ==== The Exosuits ====
| |

| | | |
− | Effects of the events taking place in Waking Titan can be felt in "shockwaves" through No Man's Sky's updates, but references to the ARG itself are rather limited. In-game lore can act independently from the ARG. This is supported primarily by the in-game reveal of ATLAS' origin, which takes place on a different timeline as opposed to Loop16's. Consideration of this has sparked the Simulation Cascade theory, which offers the explanation of: "''The existence of many simulated realities existing in one another with progressive degradation and inaccuracy,''" thus Loop16's reach into deeper levels of this cascade (including the No Man's Sky reality) making sense. This is of course just a theory, admittedly the conclusion to draw from this is up to personal interpretation since no concrete answer has yet been provided.
