It looks pretty nice and it hits all the checkmarks but I'm immediately bored by it.
I'm honestly kind of frustrated that Freelancer is still one of the better open world space games, because it's a pretty weak game with a pure genius world structure that deliberately encourages and surprises you. Meanwhile this game is fetch quest after cutscene after boring dogfight with RPG shit tacked on.
You'd be better off playing the X series (if you're interested in the world simulation aspect) or Deathwar 3030 Redux (if you want the trade lane action combat) or NeonXSZ (for the 6dof dogfight ARPG grinder) than this. Nice looking but empty.
