Thanks for the responses, I'll keep all of this in mind. The setting is very similar, but on a less massive scale and with less open areas (no Jupiter-sized holes, for example), so it will be difficult to convey the power the environment has in relation to the characters. I still have much to learn, not to mention much to experiment with, when it comes to writing.

>things like complex emotional states and narratives are often better conveyed in words

Yeah, I realized that, too. My work already has loads more dialogue than Blame! due to the characters being a lot more human (physically and mentally), so my focus is definitely more on characterization and how they deal with their situation than, say, saving the future of humanity in some vague prophecy-esque fashion.

Actually, we talk about it on /a/ every now and then, though it's easy to miss the threads. It is almost universally praised.
