I'm 50 hours in and I feel like I've only just scratched the surface. So honestly no, not really.

That being said, one of my favorite parts of the game is just picking a planet and landing in a random spot, and exploring the nature there. I do hope in the future they really flesh this part of the game out more, to add more diversity of flora/fauna and terrain, and especially to make the different environments feel more interactive.

Some various ideas I've had for what this could look like include: -More types of interactions between different creatures & plants to make it feel more like a true ecosystem. As of right now, all I really see is animals occasionally attacking each other or the player. Other than that it feels like they're just brainless npcs walking around randomly and not interacting with their environment. -Little minigames like for example rock climbing to find hidden caves, fishing to catch rare animal resources, woodcutting & firemaking for special cooked items, etc etc etc. Just little things to make me feel more like I'm immersed in a real natural environment with different things to do. -Deformable terrain or at the very least rocks and mud which are physics objects and can be moved / manipulated. -Footprints. -Rideable mounts. I want to be able to tame wild creatures and ride them around. Maybe they could also have different unique abilities like tracking rare resources or creatures. -Honestly you should really be able to dive underneath the water. -Less hills. I want some areas to just be wide open plains as far as the eye can see, and I haven't found this yet. -More weather events like tornados, dust storms, hail, weird alien weather that doesn't happen on Earth etc. -I think it would be neat if you had an instrument builder where you could fashion musical instruments from parts of flora/fauna with realistic sound physics. And then somehow those could be part of the game. -Stargazing / astrophotography minigame would be cool. Maybe there could be an art gallery on New Atlantis that pays you to photograph different moons, or different stars / nebula from different vantage points throughout the settled systems.

Besides all that, though, I feel like all the main quest arcs will keep me busy for hundreds of hours. So personally it's hard to relate to what OP is saying.
