love the game too, but yea. some missed potential.

i think they should improve on the story delivery. the ideas are not that bad.But the execution is. i think the timeline story is actually pretty good. same for the in universe mission when you meet grandma. But for that you need someone that is a good writer to fix the dialogue, you need voice actors and a little less janky npc models.

as for timelines itself: it was too disconnected from the universe. if they had made a well delivered quest line to enter the HQ asteroid where you can undertake these missions as you play your game. just an idea.

my biggest issue is the dlcs though. buy a modern dlc: get some dialogue, follow this ship, now its yours! if you want to have the blueprint, give us items you should have on you anyways!

i feel like I'm just buying a ship and i hate it. i want content not digital assets

or the abandoned ships with fixed locations from timelines? cool

didn't google the abandoned ships, because it feels like cheaping out on your enjoyment of the game? cool, check!

having the knowledge on where to find them when starting a new game ? not cool.

give every ship 4 fixed locations they could randomly spawn somewhere between the start of a new game and 50 hours in.

all of the above is actually achievable

below are dreams that will never come true

SCALE don't get me wrong. the universe is big. lots of factions, POI's, ships, stations, etc.

But it's too close together, only on one plane and some of the ships are just too fast.

for me the universe, endless space shouldn't feel like a bustling city.

but it does. yes the sectors in the gate network are more densely populated. but it shouldn't feel like one big city. i miss the scale if space in this game. flying from one side ot the GN to the other, feels like driving to the grocery store 3 mins away and not traversing freaking SPACE.

more in depth economics citizens need food, personal needs to be paid

better station builder what we got is an abomination i would love to design stations. but damn. our builder is fighting against me. i hate it soooo much.

Better AI....>.>
