The update is ok. Stuff like terrain blending looks bad and the random environment things, like rocks falling, do break the immersion because they repeat in the same places.

The games been riding the line of too many changes the last couple years and losing the uniqueness that makes it great.

It’s such a beautiful game already. I’ve died while distractedly marvelling at the Aurora while the soundtrack permeated my soul.

It’s a great game with great gameplay and which is surprisingly replayable in survival mode if you go a year or two between plays.

It’s also one which, IMHO, doesn’t need visual enhancements - their choice of visual style was masterful (it works and is a lot cheaper in terms of 3D modelling costs that something more realistic would have been) and it’s the gameplay (which is pretty much all emergent gameplay in survival mode with no fixed set-pieces, though on a fixed game map) that makes it a great game.

I really wanted to, but I couldn’t get into it… Uninstalled it a while back.
