Ending Felt...a little lacking? *Slight spoilers?*
Thoroughly enjoyed the game. Managed to get all the achievements after around 17 hours of playtime. I don't really have any major complaints beside the fact that replayability is kind of annoying, as there is no way to speed up events/dialogue other then spamming the left click button and waiting. Would be nice to be able to skip the events/speed up stuff thoroughout the early weeks rather then go through all the text boxes again.

My main point though, is all of the endings, no matter what you do feel essentially the same. You get the ship/lifeboat/ice tanker pull away/the you died/got marooned/etc, then the credits. I would have really liked for a small epilogue, even if it was only text, just y'know stating what happened to the surviving crew and where they went for the various major endings, I.e Full loyalty/no loyalty/all crew alive/no crew alive/etc. I realize this is probably a bunch of work but just my thoughts.

Like for example. If you saved everyone, had all their loyalty etc, and brought back last fellow, would have been nice to see what they all ended up doing/if appleton got the ship/what happens to everything...Feels kind of unfinished, and I thoroughly enjoyed all the characters to the point I kind of want to know where they went. Does Kurt and Hammond work together? Do Grimley, Junior, and Shaw end up sailing on a new ship? What about the doctor and kasha/cordell and stanberry/all the other lads. *shrug* Just my thoughts.

Hey there, thanks for playing! We have some expanded character epilogues for that in the works, will be posting here when we have a confirmed date for them being rolled out :)

Also for replaying dialogue you can hold the left Ctrl key to more quickly skip through text without accidentally choosing choices, that could probably be made more clearer

Ah, yeah, I never figured that out or noticed any sort of hints regarding this, but ty for letting me know. Will make my next playthrough that much easier for the Main dialogue.
