Then once I have 30 colonists and they can't even keep the floor clean cuz I have too many things going on, I'm done because i know I'll never "finish" anything. Even though every time I start that game I tell myself I'll finally build the spaceship this time.

Nobody builds the spaceship. Nobody I know has ever built the ship, unless they were playing the save our ships mod (I think that's the mod name IDK I don't use that one) but then that's not end game

I just accepted that I will only ever lose and it's fine

It's the most underwhelming finale in any game I've played. Completely pointless. You work your ass off to establish economy which can sustain building of a ship and then once you are done defending it, you get a black screen saying good job grunt. If they connected it with new game, say what you left the planet with is your new starting gear, then I could see it being more relevant. Kind of set it up for mods with extreme planets and stuff. So you have to prepare on more acceptable planet before going somewhere extreme. The way it currently is makes ending pointless.
