Yeah, this is one of the games I'm most looking forward to getting my hands on. That and The Witcher 3. However, the founder of the developer did say that it's "the opposite of an MMO." Because of the vast size of the universe it is very unlikely you'll run into other human players. Though it is possible to play with them if you did.

I think it just looks like a really nice game to chill with. Put on a great album, have a drink, and explore the universe. It doesn't even really matter if not much happens. For me, the most defining factor of this game will be how much diversity they manage to derive from their procedural generation. Also, the visuals are fantastic.

I'm sold. Brilliant twist.

Furthermore, even if you do encounter human players, there is no system in place to identify them any differently than the NPCs. So you'll potentially never know anyway!
