I love the concept of looking into Earth's outer colonies for refuge, just because I wanna go out there and see more of our solar system, or dare I say the galaxy. However in the current state of the game itself, I've changed alliances to new monarchy on my main for the sake of unlocking whatever I haven't yet. I plan on changing back in the case of any sort of update, but I figured that if I have nothing to gain from my current faction, there's no reason to stick with them for the time being, until there is any meaning put into gameplay between each faction.
