I'm so glad I stumbled across this game recommendation in a Reddit thread, because it's about as close to the perfect space sim/strategy game that I could ask for. Don't get me wrong, it's not without its flaws (some bugs here and there; steep learning curve; graphics feel a bit outdated for a 2018 game), but it takes the strongest aspects of games like Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen, Mount & Blade, and combines them all into one! Not to mention Star Citizen is STILL nowhere near finished, so this scratches my itch in all the right places.
