Farspace 2 is a lot darker, more cautionary and less care-free, than Farspace 1. Among others, it features stories about control-by entities that want to harm or protect us, and stories about exploration. Not the happy, "everything is wonderful out there and all will be great if we only go" stories. But rather the "yes it's dangerous out there, and we can get killed, but we still need to go" stories. Yet, ultimately, Farspace 2 is an anthology of hope and promise for the future, an anthology that urges us to keep moving forward despite the hardships we might find along the way.
