    I’m curious as to how exactly the space exploration differs from Elite Dangerous.

    Because in that nearly decade old game, space exploration does largely consist of fast travel warping to systems, scanning them and potentially any planets from your ship, scooping fuel from the stars, avoiding white dwarfs and neutron stars… And its absolutely enthralling.

    Curious as to how they screwed up a proven formula.

    The weird one to me is that they made it sound like a space survival game where the ship and its maintenance was going to be a primary game element, but other than the ship builder and random encounters outside a planets, it seems like it’s hardly a thing.
