Endless Sky v0.10.0
Or just download a certain mod's wonderful launcher.

Is the Free Worlds campaign incomplete?
Putting this top level, you need Endless Sky Launcher 2 from here: https://github.com/EndlessSkyCommunity/ESLauncher2

finally!!!
Haha, yeah! There is a pinned comment on this sub that already announced it, but it's such awesome news, isn't it? Of course, I won't personally be using it anyway since I'm deep into the 0.9.15 alpha content (not on Steam yet since 0.9.15 isn't finished, but it's updated frequently on github and is also available using the launcher). Still, having a 'stable' release on Steam for the first time in over two years is sure to attract a lot of new players! 😁

Which Free world story ending do you prefer and why
I'd really recommend downloading ESLauncher2 and using it to stay up-to-date with Continuous. There are rarely any bugs, especially anything major since all commits need to be approved by the devs in order to be pushed into continuous anyway, and there's a lot more story content. The Remnant have 20+ new missions, and the new ships are unlocked through the course of these missions.
-
Is there ever going to be another Steam update or Remnant update or are we just stuck with only getting the latest game from GitHub?
You should download ESL 2 as u/Kadd115 suggested. Link in the clear: https://github.com/EndlessSkyCommunity/ESLauncher2 This will let you easily play the Continuous which has all the new content, all the time. And there's a lot, especially for the Remnant. The person who made the launcher also makes tons of other contributions to the game and shows up here from time to time.

A Thank You to this game
While you could technically assemble and run the continuous on your own, it's far easier with a bit of code. Check out: https://github.com/EndlessSkyCommunity/ESLauncher2/

"Now I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds" (Spoiler)
A couple of versions ago (in 0.9.13), but it's kind of an easter egg ship -- gotta jump through a lot of hoops to get it, and it's not really something you can find 'by accident'... Also, bear in mind that the Steam version is lagging pretty far behind. Steam still only offers 0.9.12 in the 'stable' branch, and 0.9.13 if you opt into the 'beta' branch, but 0.9.14 was released months ago and just hasn't made it into Steam yet (I'd recommend either getting it from the GitHub page directly or downloading the unofficial ES Launcher 2).
-
PSA: v0.9.14 has been released on GitHub only
For people who want the super fresh stuff, you should download the Endless Sky Launcher 2 and use it to run the Continuous build.
-
[Spoilers late wanderer] Does it just end here?
But download ES Launcher 2 and get on the nightly. There is a TON of newer content, including almost as much Remnant as a full third of a whole story line, another really long and satisfying Deep line, and a whole bunch more (rewarding!) archeology missions, to name but a very few. And several very interesting moral dilemmas along the way. And you can play the newer Coalition intro, which is quite fun.

Naev – open-source game about space exploration, trade and combat
Sounds very similar to Endless Sky[1] - another open source game drawing on the old Escape Velocity games. I really enjoyed both Endless Sky and the Escape Velocity games, so I'll have to check out Naev at some point!

- Endless Sky v0.10.4
-
StarCitizen Server Meshing Architecture
There's an open source successor to Escape Velocity that's fun and continues to grow:

- Endless Sky – a galaxy lies open for you to explore
-
6 free games updated in the last 60 days
#2 - Endless Sky - ALSO inspired by Escape Velocity, but IMO this is more polished Escape Velocity clone and could reasonably be called the modern successor. EXCELLENT space trade/piracy/combat and definitely take some good strategy to get far into the game.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing ESLauncher2 and endless-sky you can also consider the following projects:

widelands - Widelands is a free, open source real-time strategy game with singleplayer campaigns and a multiplayer mode. The game was inspired by Settlers II™ (© Bluebyte) but has significantly more variety and depth to it.
