Although I can't fully understand everything you comment here, I can tell it's a pretty complex game in terms of adventure, many places to go, I guess because it's a spaceship game you have to go from planet to planet collecting resources and killing some creatures along the way. This kind of games have always caught my attention, unfortunately right now I can't afford to play them, I don't have powerful equipment to run this kind of games.
I can only tell you that you keep enjoying your adventure and keep harvesting many more milestones.
While it can be a complex game. A lot of it is just exploring and enjoying some amazing locations.
