I was (and still am) pretty interested in this, but it's not getting great reviews on Steam.
Although, some people seem to like it.
Seems they severely understated the requirements for the game, according to the reviews.

I just warped to a few galaxies then the atlas anomaly came up and then followed it. Then found the stone. |

Warped into some new system yesterday and was immediately presented with a message that said "Battle Detected", there were some freighters knocking around and other ships apparently shooting at them but no way for me to know who was who and why they were doing what to who else so I just watched for a bit and then fucked off and left them to it. It looked pretty, though. |

Apparently, they are jyst guidelines as I got killed by a Space Pirate yesterday... The "push down to go down" in flight annoys me a bit. And I haven't uploaded my discoveries by pressing L2 or something. I save some creatures which were like a monpedal beach ball that bounced about and some cock and balls things, too. |

You can reverse the pitch control direction in the options if that's what you mean. It was the first thing I did. |

I had good fun last night. I had a scrap with some baddies then found a planet with loads of minerals to mine and a galactic exchange close by. I did a few full loads of minerals and got intercepted by Space pirates! I have about half million in the bank but will head off to the next system asap as there are few animals here to look at. Onwards and upwards. It did crash twice last night but no biggie |

I'm getting some seriously shit draw distance issues on the PS4 when flying in atmosphere - stuff that's only a few hundred metres away will sort of go staticky black fuzzy then sort of pop in with the texture. It's constant and really ruining it for me. |

There is definitely a lot of in-atmosphere pop-in. Then again I'm typically only doing short hops on planet to get to the next place I've marked because I'm too lazy to walk. |

And for it to be more cheapers I was thinking this, but I worry that while they may be able to patch it up to run reasonably for now, down the line some Windows update will probably break it completely, a bit like Rockstar's games, for such is the level of PC programming skill on display here. So I'll probably just wait for the market to be flooded with second hand PS4 copies. |

Maybe this one will be after a year of patches etc. Still having fun, though. Last night I found a crashed ship that only had one more slot than mine but looks way cooler so I spent about two hours doing all the stuff I needed to change over and get it back to where I was. Just going to start ploughing on down the path now though and see what's there. |

Yeah this is all sounding a little bit Drive Clubby. Definitely going to watch how it develops. Hopefully in 12 months time you'll be able to fly your ship around a drizzling Scottish city. |

Hng. I thought it was an absolutely fantastic game, I'm glad I got it early, and I'm glad I've played it. It definitely has limited longevity though, and has certain issues that will hopefully be fixed that would argue against a day one purchase. So on balance probably not. I did the worst of all worlds and bought it download so no trade-in value for me  Does mean i'll still have it in three patches time though.

No, I really wanted to like this game, but I waited for reviews and for people's opinions first. And I can't for the life of me work out how it's worth that much. It seems like an indie game that should have been £15 and I'm trying to see if you can convince me otherwise. You all say you've got your money's worth but what actually have you done? I'm genuinely bemused. *edit* Then again I've spent hundreds of pounds on iRacing so what do I know?
