A friend of mine who enjoys the game recalled someone else's comment about this game :
"Miles wide, inches deep"
It seems there's a lot to explore, but not a lot to do within that expanse. You might be better off waiting and buying it along with a ton of DLC when it's cheaper.

No.
It has a lot of pro (graphics are nice, UI is awesome, sounds are good, music is good, ...), but the reviews are not lying: there is no content.
Space station A gives you a mission to deliver something to space station B. A wants you to kill X in sector B. Go explore unknown sector C to sell the data to space station in sector A or B. That's the point of this game.
The game is not finished, 200€ of DLCs are already planned (and already on sale on their website), and the devs thought it was a good idea to give a huge fuck you to their loyal customers on PC and even more loyal kickstarter backers by releasing the Xbox version for cheaper and with content exclusively available on Xbox for 6 months.

Depends, what are you wanting to do with it? There's X3, Freespace 2, Independence war, Privateer, hell even EvE. A lot of these older games do have a lot more content and even play better (with case of Freespace 2, some of the graphical mods put it on par with some 2009 games).

I want to try it out myself - been years since I played good old SpaceSim, but especially with shitloads of DLCs announced I'm not buying it full price with the amount of content it's lacking. I will wait for a 75% sale - then I will consider it worth it content-wise.

I'm tempted but knowing there will be expensive DLCs every X months makes me cry a lot.
