If you want a good looking space trading game with good depth this is it. If you want a fly and fight game this might be it. If you want a full featured massive universe to play in then this game will hold you over till one comes out. Don't get me wrong I love this game. It is good looking from a ship perspective there are lots to do and once you get going you can create scripts to handle the more boring aspects of the game. I created a vast trading empire and cornered the markets on a few items. Commanded a huge fleet and destroyed my competition. I played this game for 5 days straight and was entertained the whole time. However; it falls short just like other games (Freelancer, Privateer, etc...) in giving me a universe I can get lost in. I had most of the economics figured out in an hour and found that they didn't try to hard to make the higher end productions worth making. The plot is very weak and the characters are pathetic stick figures with bitmaps. But then again I didn’t get this game for the plot; hence my good rating.
