That is not a winning elevator pitch, that sounds like a dumpster fire of elements in an always online package.

Everything about the title made me want it less, and the article didn't help at all. What's fun about it? Why should I play this instead of both of the games it claims to be similar to? Give me a feel for the gameplay loop, not a series of checkboxes.

The MMO element seems like it'd ruin the whole thing for me.

Yeah like "imagine the wholesome immersiveness of the Sims, but with other players constantly trying to sell you their loot or get you to join their clan"

Comparing the ambitiousness of a game to Star Citizen is a risky bet. SC's ambition has not been positive. lol
