Gather materials and construct a headquarters on land or an orbiting space station where experts can conduct business and research. Join or form factions along political, military, or economic lines to gain advantages and allies, then venture forth on missions to shape an everchanging player-driven economy.

They got to figure out how to make a decent space game that isn't mass effect, alien, or Star Wars.

I'll be honest. That description isn't selling it to me. The game sounds like actual work, but work I wouldn't get paid for.

Not for me.

I get why the first trailer didn't do it any favors - it was pretty light on actual gameplay. The newer deep dive at least shows there's some structure there with automation, logistics, and faction dynamics.

It does sound like it's leaning more toward a sandbox economy sim than a cinematic space RPG, which probably isn't going to click with everyone. The big question for me is scale and polish - are we talking tight, focused systems or another overly ambitious "build the universe" project that never quite comes together?
