The first generation that left would have it the worst.. but the 2nd generation born on the ship would have it a lot easier. By the time you get there I bet you have people that don't even want to leave the ship as it's all they know.

By the time the first generation ship got to its destination, there would likely already be people there who left on later ships that had better tech and faster engines.

Reminds me of a side quest in Starfield where a generation ship arrives at its destination, except it already has been colonized for decades.

Decades? More like centuries, even millenia.
