Feels like a very promising early access title.
Great RPG systems, but sub-par in other core areas.

RPG systems offer some unique elements. For example your ship is effectively equipment and it determines your weight (movement speed and maneuverability to a degree), and size. Being big has it's negatives.

Different weapons effectively represent RPG attack skills and what makes that particularly unique is the fact you can swap them at any time. Other modules grant different kinds of skills, like drones, mines regeneration, etc.

Just some of the more obvious things. That's not all of them.

• Bad UI. Overall poor visibility. Few examples:
  
  • It doesn't scale to modern resolutions (3440x1440 or 4k), so if you're on those prepare to squint.
    
  • Item icons are useless. See if you can figure out which slots any of the items go. What rarity are they?
    
  • Messy item Tooltips. Info is poorly organized and difficult to read. Again open any screenshot with one and see for yourself. It doesn't say much or anything particularly complex but it takes longer to process
    
  • Cluttered. There's a crafting UI consisting of 4 slots to input item, 1 to get the result and a button. There's a whole messy guide embedded in that UI, which makes it take up like 30% of the screen.
    
• RPG systems didn't come in handy. In the ~1 hour I played I steamrolled through all enemies with starter weapons. It's supposed to be a tiny bit difficult or the reward structure RPG mechanics create doesn't work..
  
• Sound design predating 2000s. Example: Lasers sound like they are from a SNES game. This is a massive reason why combat feels weightless.
  
• No damage feedback. You only that attack landed (on you or an enemy) when you see at damage numbers. There's no visual or sound feedback. Enemies flinch, get pushed or anything really. It's like your projectile simply gets absorbed.
