I've been exploring the different quest choices, and it seems that if you choose to abandon Opbot, you won't reunite with the other Vaulters who escaped from Auriga. Instead, your independent investigation determines that the Vaulters were originally descended from the Mezari prison ship Success, which seems to cause some consternation. The quest ended there for me without a second part of chapter 4, which seems unusual (though it might have been somewhat buggy). It's much less of a happy ending than reuniting with your fellow survivors.

(That's not a bug, there is no Part2 for Chapter4. :) )

Thanks for answering that, but I should have been more clear - I didn't think that the lack of a chapter 4 pt. 2 quest was a bug; instead, the presumed bug occurred after I had chosen the militarist route for the final quest (kill the Academy fleet, rather than build the Conscription Center), but built the Conscription Center before finding and defeating the fleet, which triggered quest completion.

Still, am I completely misremembering things, or do other factions have 2 parts for their chapter 4 quest?

My only problem with the Reunion ending is that I didn't have room for my cousins anywhere but that system. Granted it's a relatively big system, but it's the same issue I have with Population Diversification in general, if I want to integrate other peoples I need to deliberately neglect Food to avoid filling everything with my first people, even though Food is theoretically the resource of Ecologists, who are the faction of diversification. 

It's the only resource I ever have reason to try and produce less of.

Their leader is the same person from Endless Legend isn't it?

Hmmmm...

She is the same, and the Bloodline is a special lineage for a very good reason.

Thanks for the reply, Slowhands! That's very cool to know (if I interpreted it right). So does that mean only Zolya's daughter lived for that long, but the other survivors went through generations?

On a side note, I'd love if we got her daughter as a hero, now we already got Opbot from the quest so it'd probably be imbalanced with two heroes, but still! Loved her design in the comic.

The Zolyas will end up being some kind of Endless experiment / Endless themselves aren't they...

Either the Vaulers live longer or their civilizations advanced at super fast speed.

I choose the latter.
