The longer I play space games, the more I think about Deep Space Nine instead of Elite.
Like, the whole "procedural generation, infinite universe stuff" is great and all. But what matters most is the perspective and weird stories this creates. And the humanizing -- for lack of a better term -- ways that people learn to live in those settings.
This is why I think SS14, particularly the longform roleplay servers, are very good "space" games. Give me that gossip, it's the lifeblood of this place.
