There's a fine line between being atmospheric and introspective vs being dull and boring. While FAR: Lone Sails occasionally manages to be the former, it is far more common for it to sink to the latter. The most profound moments were easily those few occurrences where you arrive at a long desolated outpost and your radio briefly springs to life with the suggestion that there are inhabitants other than yourself tucked within the dreary landscape. Alternatively, the couple of occasions where the solemn journey was interrupted by sudden tension and you had to scramble to keep your vessel in working order were always a welcome change of pace.
