We're kinda in the mid-game. We can still see __a lot__ of galaxies and can still reach them. The universe will keep expanding forever and at some point, the cosmic event horizon will shrink to the size of our galaxy. There is still a wide variety of stars including supergiants which can seed the galaxy with heavy elements when they go supernova. There will be a time when only Red Dwarves will survive, and after trillions of years the universe will enter a dark age when there are no stars with visible light left.
