It's been a long time coming. 'Beyond' will be released on the 14th. It seems like it will be more than worth the wait. Yet I still can't bring myself to be excited about it. I've never wanted to share the game world or play experiences with other players MMO style, so nothing new there for me.
The updates and changes look to be good, great even. A game with this much support after it's start, really is something to behold. I can see it living long into the future with multiplayer.
Best of luck if your into it. Yes I'm probably missing out. In the back of my mind I can't shake the once bitten twice shy feeling. I was into the game and had that journey taken from me, no updated features can give that back.
I'm not bitter, they had to do it for the game, it was an inevitable change I never new was coming so it hit hard. Angry at lost time/energy/gameplay, sad that the experience, my experience, my own procedurally generated journey was taken away from me. That means nothing to anyone else but it was everything to me and my gameplay; That's all.
Maybe I am bitter about it, I thought I'd let it go for the most part. Now I'm reminded with every patch of what I should have had. That special journey, my own finality.
I hung on for a long time to test patches in some form of hope to rekindle the spark. That never happened. The game got uninstalled.
Everything I see and read about the game is great, better, vastly improved yet still does nothing for me.
Twice bitten twice shy.
Maybe in the future I'll finally let it all go and start from scratch. Starting with nothing I'd have nothing to lose. Take a starship, keep it simple, enjoy the journey....
