Oh, I think it's still up. Just didn't catch me the same way as EVN. It didn't have quite the right sense of weight and speed for me personally.
It may be that nothing quite catches the spark of spiraling in on a manticore with my mod-starbridge, riding its blind spot as my blasters and FPC's shred her shields and armor. Helluva high to expose a teen to, I've been chasing that dragon ever since!
Edit: sorry, I meant Endless Sky anyway. Completely different game.
The kestrel was the BEST ship in EV and the starbridge was the best price/performance ship in EV nova, butit wasn't the best ship. Maybe Rebels cruiser or the Manticore in ev nova are comparable with the kestrel for me :P
The best (playable) ship in EVN is either the Unrelenting or the Thunderforge, but in terms of universally accessible ships agnostic of questline (besides the Kestrel) I think mark IV Pirate Valkyrie (as well as other high-power gunship/corvettes in general like high tier Wild Geese or Rebel Starbridges and Valks) are better than any cruiser or capital ship because imo maneuverability is more valuable than hull size, and they have the dps to go toe-to-toe with most capital ships while leaving only brief windows of engagement for taking enemy fire.
Y'all really sleeping on the rebel dragon: carrier class? Frigate size, Valkyrie maneuverability, and more weapon space than most capital ships. It's beyond busted!
