I just started and I declined when I interacted with the Atlas for the first time. Did I just screw the narrative?

Nah, you can chose to continue the atlas path after you encounter [spoiler]The Space Anomaly [/spoiler] In order to trigger it appearing you just gotta warp a few times.
-
Should I though?
-
Well if you want a tangible goal, then yes. If you don't care about having a tangible goal then you can just use the [Previously Mentioned Spoiler] to get resources and Atlas Passes.
-
If I don't say yes to the Atlas can I still get my center of the galaxy ending?
-
Yes of course.
-
I assumed that. If I don't accept the Atlas do I still get all of those things you named above? Rooms on space stations and stuff?
-
Yes you can get the atlas passes, following the atlas simply stream lines the process of acquiring one.
-
Oh so you can do everything without accepting the Atlas, you just won't be told where, what, or how to do it.
-
Exactly
-
So, how do I get an atlas pass without saying yes to the Atlas?
-
Just keep exploring, eventually the [Previously Mentioned Spoiler] will show up in one of the star systems
-
I think you should restart and take the atlas path lol
