I feel like there is a lot of opportunity for something that represents the "edge of space" or "next to the void" were the outer rim of the universe has Monsters such as a locust type flesh ships,
massive "planets of flesh" that act as a base that spit out patrolling "eldritch horrors" that act like pirates that do not need resources that limit themselves the the outer rim. i also like the idea that instead of the universe just ending there is a physical danger by drifting further and further from the core worlds.
a lot of people lean away from aliens in this community, but what about the horror aspect of the unknown?
just a thought, is it too ambitious of a mod? or would it be an Reskin of a faction (REDACTED) and there Bases?
