This Area is honestly what I've wanted aesthetically from CE. Exploring an actually lost, ancient civilization's world that they left behind.
The overgrown, almost Post-apocalyptic vibe really sets the mood and atmosphere to me, and is something I've always thought was really interesting.
A world that was once inhabited by a civilization long lost, they may be gone, but the world still continues on without them. We don't know what happened, but we know they aren't here anymore.
Pathways, houses, and other structures are overgrown and collapsing. Cars are left behind suddenly to rot and decay in the middle of streets, as if people were simply doing their daily routine one day, and were forced to leave, or worse.
I believe if this was any other game, we would have found bodies, bones, physical bodily remains of some sort. but obviously this is a side content zone, and i'm sure they can't get too carried away with environmental storytelling skeletons.
To me, this zone is reminder of why we need to take care of our little rock, and the people and other living beings on it, in this unimaginably vast emptiness of space, and why I wish more people would CARE about their fellow Space Rock Riders more. We don't have magical McGuffin Space Bunnies to whisk us away if things ever got really bad.
Our time here will one day come to an end, the planet will move on, hopefully.
Even though the world can sometimes feel cold or unfair, I still believe kindness matters a lot more than some people think, especially in our Modern times, with modern struggles. The world does not care about you, and it does not care about anyone else. HOWEVER, small acts of kindness and compassion can change the entirety of someone else's life.
The opposite is also true, so remember that the next time you feel the need to ignore, demean or belittle someone, regardless of your personal feelings towards them. You never know what somebody could be going through. In an uncaring world, the best thing we can do is care for each other. We do not have to accept cruelty as normal.

My little melancholy rant aside (I'm sorry for waxing poetic here), if there is one thing I want somebody to take away from this:
