Bad way to teach a lesson. (Event)

[Macaronis]

I have to say this is a HORRIBLE Execution of a good Idea. The Fact that this turned into a "We Pollute the Environment" Public Service announcement is ridiculous. My Little Astroneer guy is TIRED of recycling the Mess he makes. To the point where he wants to be Paid for all his work. There is NOTHING fun about this. For the first hour it was slightly humorous, Now I am playing just to Spite the game cause I HATE all the Crap laying around. You could have AT LEAST allowed for instant removal of lids. I am on Large Container 6 with Scrap. Not even enough Dynamite would fix this crap!

Don't even get me started on how this event screwed up all my paths I went out of my way to get those invis wall glitches to go unnoticed. Now all I do is hit them and get stuck.

Please no more events like this without really thinking them through.

</Rant Over>

Please take this more as Humor as well. I am slightly enjoying this but its now too much like a real job!

An environmentalist content skit. And as monotonous and unrewarding as it is in real life. I'm glad your still having some kind of fun.

I haven't played in a while. But from what I've heard on these community forums, Astroneer is at its end. Event's are becoming hot garbage to squeeze the last bit of value out of the game. Nothing has been done to fix the inherent boredom of the game. And whoever is doing all of this doesn't seem to know how to manage a community.
I remember Astroneer from its early days. Before platforms could be moved independently on the base. When the game still had weather hazards.
The game had and still has so much potential. But the game is finished now. The fun has stopped. A finished game can't be overhauled. It's over.

Maybe I'm being dramatic. Or have come to a conclusion too soon. Either way, it doesn't matter. The game is already over. There's nothing left to do, and people have moved on. And some day, maybe after some months of continued support, so will development.
It's a strange feeling to outlive your favorite games. It becomes a dusty symbol on your top played list. And with nothing to replace it, your library slowly becomes a recollection of a better day. A day that the future will never be able to rival.

While I would not say totally dead... I pretty much agree with you.
