I'm all for another sci-fi NMS-like, but the moment he said that you can map a planet, and other players would/could buy a map from you, I mentally checked out. If there's lots of planets to explore, why would I buy a map when I can strike out on my own? And if there's limited worlds, mapping is going to become saturated really quickly.
But maybe I'm missing some important aspect. I sincerely hope they do well, and I hope they bring some truly unique ideas to the table.
Nothing stopping you from setting out on your own.
There is limited worlds, but they aren't static, the number of worlds (and which worlds) will change. The surface of the planets can (and will) also change. There's someone in alpha right now cutting down a mountain (literally). There's also a system for planets dying, and being restored.
Cool. I'll certainly keep my eyes on this. I've loved NMS, but I've basically done everything there is to do, minus a handful of community expeditions.
A new challenge in the same genre would be welcome!
