Well I find it quite selfish.
A lot of commanders, I guess 2/3 of them haven't even reached the point. Many has died, many more stopped on Sagittarius, many many more just gave up, like myself. And there are no words for them. Less then 1/3 made it to beagle point.
I must say I acted pretty childish when I was flying. Whining about how hard it was to fly, that I don't have big jump range. I was surprised to find out that avarage jump rage is actually more smaller then mine. Yet still this is quite annoying to see. Less then 1/3 made it, nothing said about last 2/3 and bit more.
Some people may say that they didn't deserve it / it's their problem / lack of will power / etc. But I cannot find anything so great in spending several months just to made it into nowhere and get a one stupid decal on your ship. If that is a test for your will power, then its most stupidest test, showing that you've wasted several months on nothing, but has proven that you are strong.
And the last thing is messages about people leaving / quitting / finishing or whatever. What that supposed to mean? It looks like the whole thing was made for someone's own amusement. "I wanna fly into nowhere and quit playing, hell yeah!". And what about others? There was a news in steam a 18th of July. Rock, Paper, Shotgun page, sharing story of some guy who traveled in DW2 as well. The main question of it was "What's next?" Really, what's next? All what I've seen is some people leaving. I haven't seen anyone saying great about whole thing, being sad over how little people made it. No, just "oh boy, I've made it, now I can go delete the game".
This is selfish in my opinion. Nothing said about people who gave up, no word like "It's alright, we hope you'll have better luck next time" or something. Everyone was just rushing in madness, trying to show how great of a traveler he is. Well, you've shown it, now what?
All that repetitive jumping into nowhere, a lot of people wasted their precious time only for nothing, just to return to bubble and watch how others make progress, saying something like "Kek you didn't make it coz ur weak haha". And in the end to see how other people was praising themselves and saying that they're qutting.
This is quite selfish.
Personally I found great personal satisfaction completing the long journey. I made many new friends. I saw total strangers (fuel rats, hull seals) offer help, advice, and encouragement. I saw the most beautiful place I have ever seen when I went to Goliath's Rest and looked down on the galaxy thousands of light years below me. I appreciated all of the hard work and planning and support the organizers provided us and I am grateful to them. I make absolutely no judgements on any CDR who left the expedition at any point. In fact, I truly believe you didn't have to go all the way to Beagle Point to enjoy the expedition. Just my 2 cents.

Of my friends who set out, I was the only one who made it, and yeah, it was a little sad arriving there all alone, but it meant ONE of us made it, and could welcome the others aboard a ship via telepresence to witness the galaxy spread out like that in one direction, with the void in the other. We got our moment of sitting there on the most distant moon, sharing a drink to commemorate the journey. But the whole DW2 experience was something to each of us. Something different, certainly. But each of us got something we wanted out of it.
I understand that. And pretty much I'm noticed about endless sheets. But as it was my choice to give up it was his choice to work alone on these sheets. You respect person who didn't try to ask for help yet no kind word on people who spent their time on nothing? That's quite hypocritical.yeah, Qohen Leth spentmonthyears with organising this just to sign out
he also spread around his awesome artworx for free and his inspirational mind over many in this forum cause he is selfishly
"We choose to go to the Beagle Point! We choose to go to the Beagle Point...We choose to go to Beagle Point even though it'll feel like it takes a decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too."
"because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills."
Same way different things are always a great experience to different groups of people.How that can be joyful?
