Looking for a spaceship/sci fi game to play. Any thoughts? (kbin.social)

I’m a massive sci fi fan and played the ever loving shit out of Star Citizen for a while there. Loved the 6 degrees of freedom and the capability to be a person or a starship.

I know Starfield is coming in September and I’m excited for what is has to offer but in the interim does anybody have a sci fi/star fighter game they can recommend? I kickstarted Everspace 2 so I can give that a go and I’m almost done with the current No Man’s Sky expedition

Play co-op! You join someone's ship and shoot out of one of their turrets or fighters.
It's a great way to meet some people to talk with. It's also nice to play on the same team as other people - much of SF seems - whats the word? Not antisocial - imagine like people who walk by when you're eating lunch, and shove you into the bushes for the lulz. So it's nice to find people with a common goal.
More importantly for new players, it can also be a good way of checking out more expensive ships, and it can be a good way of making money - if the person you join can finish the mission.
