I've been looking around for a modern space sim, something like Star Wolves, something with RPG elements, ie. upgrades for ships, leveling, customization etc
I'm looking for mainly RPG elements, great replay value, and something that doesnt take 50+ hours just to get a decent character/level and an easy learning curve. Think Spore 'space age' crossed with StarWolves.
hit me up with any recommendations with a link to trailer/game play/developers site, etc

thanks in advance,
Z
