What’s here in terms of ingredients for building and running a ‘DnD in space’ campaign is interesting but, as has been frequently noted, it’s bizarrely, even insultingly (especially if you paid anywhere near retail price) incomplete. The range of ships and the new player species are nice but the setting lore and game logic and ruleset are a bare outline and the campaign hub setting is underbaked.
