Years ago, just as the first teaser dropped, I was an “insider” on the project. The direction they had was pretty clear; single player with some co-op. RPG with robust character creator and classes. Open world with seamless ground-to-space travel, and a single solar system to explore with your pirate ship.
They showed off some early gameplay, their city tech, and their planet generation tech. Then silence.
I’m technically still an “insider”, but they just stopped sending updates about 10 years ago.
Now you’re telling my they scrapped all of that to make a Fortnite game, then scrapped that to make a 4 player live service game, they scrapped that too and now we’re right back where we fucking started at single player with some co-op!?
Seeing how things go, just going back to that point seems the option with more opportunities to succeed. Trying to shoehorn the middle parts will be a mess

I remember this too, and just recently figured it must have died. The seamless space transition looked incredible.

Yeah, but this still feels like negative progress.
It’s UniSoft. Basically reverting 20 years would make their share price go to the moon.
