Happy that you will return! :)

The game is still very much a sandbox with events that appear based on where you settle and who you play as.

I will also add, a LOT is about to change with the upcoming 1.0, which is going to be released very soon. You might want to hold off playing until then. This new version introduces a lot more content, UI improvements, and loads of other good stuff. This will all be compounded with everything added since you played 4 years ago.
