“Remembering that day stuck on the side of a cliff, exploring ruins and shaper relics on the edges of death. Matthias would be proud. Shot in the leg by a Tesilar, paralyzed from the legs down. Luckily enough though, the cliff side had a great view. A Titan, seemingly frolicking about without a care in the world, protecting their turf. Something created by the Anthem showing a nature that is not commonly perceived by all. I thought being stuck here was an unfortunate thing but reflecting back, it was a great time. It was nice seeing the hues change in the scenery as darkness approached as well; the little things.”

This was one of my favorite things I captured as I was enjoying the last few months of Anthem. Hope you all are having a great Friday and it all goes well for the weekend if you have any plans! Strong alone, stronger together.

Even 7 months after the servers are down, we are still here. There are so many of us that are putting in countless hours to keep our Anthem experience alive. From the mods of this reddit, Fort's Forge, solo dev updates like the Dissonance project, and people posting what could have been. I've never seen a community work this hard for a game that was taken from them.

I had a thought, could we create a demo that was satisfying if we all worked on it together? peer-to-peer. Small and free. A vertical slice, not with all the AAA and AA whistles. Something we can have to enjoy and expand anytime someone wanted. So I decided on starting Project S.A.S.T.: an open project to build an original co-op demo around the loop we all love and miss. Build > Fly > Fight > Loot. Not a revival, not official, no EA assets. Something new that captures the feeling with friends.

I'm not a programmer. I do PM and QA for a living, so I run the tickets, sprints, and reviews. The building has to come from people here who can code, design, or make art and audio. Docs, a sprint board with small claimable tickets, and a Discord are live. There is no playable build yet and no promises about dates. Ive always been passionate about the experience I had in Anthem. It would be amazing if we as a community, instead of convincing the Corps to give it to us. We build it.

Contributing would look like this: Read the Doc/Updates, grab one ticket to complete, open a Pull Request. No bigger commitment than that. We will have sprints just so we can work together and finish the project. Im committing to sticking with this to completion, others can come and go as they please of course. If you just want to talk about what made Anthem feel like Anthem, you can reply here or in the Discord.

Please no AI-generated code or assets. Everything gets made by real people.

Strong Alone. Stronger Together.

I loved this place. The lighting here was amazing and it felt Uncharted-esque with the way the pathways were set up. I used to walk it and just inspect everything for minutes at a time. Whenever I’d come here it’d be mostly Dominion’s in here which were always fun to fight.

Couldn’t sleep so decided to post something. Not anything traditionally exciting, but calming. You might be able to hear some shaper relics humming or booming here and there. Hope all of you have had a good day or if your day is beginning when you see this, I hope you have a good day!

“The day was long and arduous. Wyverns nests to the front and rear of me. Mating season, just my luck. I was telling Jax about the odds of me being stuck here jokingly; I’d be lucky to be stuck here because ‘it’s as if nature came back to claim what is rightfully hers.’ The fool I was. A freelancer like me, delusions of grandeur and a new life. I’ll miss those Peanut and Butter sandwiches. Now, I won’t even know what will happen in the end of The Crimson Freelancer. To whomever gets this note, know I tried and tell Jax to not cry too much.”
