Guess I'll call it quits for now. Shitty since it seems the corpses didn't carry over and now I won't even get to research them. Extra shitty since I do not have the interest left to stick around for two more years. I've been wanting the game to be over for a while now, even. I'll just move on.
First time making it to the late game though. Feels like the game shines best in the early-mid, when you first get flying armors. That's definitely when I had the most fun.
