- The game is extremely limited with a ship cap of 256, leading to a lack of long-term goals and progression.
- Content is sparse, with players running out of things to do within a few days, and the combat mechanics are overly simplified and boring.
- There is a lack of essential features such as diplomacy, trade, and meaningful player interaction, making the gameplay feel barebones and unengaging.

Gameplay is characterized by a simplified combat system influenced by the disruptor mechanic, which may limit player engagement, as many users report not being online to experience combat directly. Overall, the lack of firsthand combat experience leaves some uncertainty about the mechanics.
“The combat itself ends up being very simplified due to the disruptor mechanic, and it's highly likely you won't even be online to see the combat.”
“I can't speak to the combat mechanics per se, as I have not witnessed any combat firsthand yet.”
