No Man’s Sky How to Name Your Discoveries:
Every planet in No Man’s Sky has variety of animals and plants. The universe in No Man’s Sky is procedurally generated, so there may be some similarities in different planets but all your discoveries will be counted as separate ones. Just keep your eyes pealed for small differences, or just keep the Analysis Visor ready at all times. As discovering new species will need a Analysis Visor, we presume that you have not scrapped your Analysis visor.
