This game was amazing... Back in beta I can say I played probably close to 200 of my total hours there. The game had a wonderful feel to it and I just couldn't get enough. However, as the game updated more and more the feeling of whimsical wonder seemed to fade with it. I could have easily gotten past this, but my main problem is how the sub-par story is kind of shoved down your throat whenever you play and you must do it to progress. I miss the days of aimless adventuring among the stars, I don't want to be held down by some mission I have to complete and definitely if that mission is such a downer like this one. The game just rings out hollow now and all I have to remember it is the soundtrack. At least it can remind me of the old days when I used to discover the stars with an entire universe out there waiting for me.
