I have played for hundreds of hours if you qount all the non-steam dev builds and while I have tried a lot of different ship loadouts there are still many ships and loadouts that I want to try but haven't because new things to try is added all the time :) And this is true even after I've played past the levels where new qontent is unlocked for every progression!
When I turned up my MSAA to max, checked all the checkbox graphics options, increased the light slider from 4 to 5, and decreased the render distance from 4000 to 3500, my gtx670 seemed to not even need to run at it's stock clock speed, but that's because my 3770K CPU was technically maxed out.
If you like 6DOF FPS games that requires some skill (though there's at least 4 ways to adjust the difficulty to suit anyone) and want to avoid boring grind then this is The Game!
NeonXSZ is also incredibly impressive with buttons on your ship's hud actually functional, to the overall visual and sound effects.
In general the sound design to me is very engrossing with its muffled sound effects and outside explosions giving you the feeling of truly being inside the cockpit.
Runs perfectly on Linux, rock solid (never crashed) and stable 120 fps (vsync enabled with 120hz screen),
