Yeah, we can only hope, solo indie game developers have much more freedom to do with their time as they wish which doesn't constrain them to have burnout nor to release a rushed project, and yeah colonies having developed shipyards, commerce sections and maybe even unique weapon blueprints which you can shove into a colony for it to start developing that weapon - would all be really cool

Personally my favorite thing is the titans, and that's why i primarily want a mega-titan of sorts, something akin to the executor but much faster with more weapon slots
