So you can do anything theoretically, but what are the core gameplay actions?asked by Brian Feldman
TL;DRPlayers can explore planets, cities and fully realized ships of many sizes, and freely choose roles such as criminal, law enforcer, bounty hunter or trader, on a scale like Grand Theft Auto but larger.
The scale is really large. You can be on a planet, walk around and explore every inch of that planet and go down in caves, go into a city and various buildings in it, and then get into a spaceship. The spaceships range anywhere from small, like a single-seater that's 20 meters long, to the biggest in the game, which is 200 meters long. We have ones we're working on that will be over a kilometer in size, and they're fully realized inside. There's living quarters and mess and toilets, there's engines. It's all realized and laid out like you would expect it to be. You can get in, take off, leave one planet, fly to another planet, get out, and so there's a sense of scale and freedom. Think about some of the things you can do in Grand Theft Auto, but think on a much larger scale, and less focused on one profession. You can be the criminal if you want, but you can be the law enforcer or bounty hunter, or someone minding their own business trading cargo.
