I keep thinking people are going to make my dream game and then they make it too big and then it doesn't work.

I just want a space game set in a single solar system planets with multiple locations that I can fly around do stuff in. Basically just make the Expanse into game.

But they are always trying to make it the whole sodding universe, and then inevitably say you have FTL, because otherwise it would be boring, and then it turns out that it's just a bunch of cutscenes playing between various levels and it isn't a whole cohesive environment at all.

Even Elite Dangerous is guilty of this, although they are much better at hiding it.
