I'm pretty intrigued; this game looks deep and complicated. I watched a short video on exploration which showed the player exploring not only each start system, but each planet in each system. Is this a beast of micromanagement or does it flow pretty smoothly? Is the learning curve as steep as dwarf fortress?

It can be pure micromanagement hell if you're insane, but it's incredibly simple just to automate anything that doesn't interest you and only mess with the stuff you want to. The learning curve isn't nearly as steep as dwarf fortress due to this.

I haven't played since a few weeks after the initial release, is there still heavy rubber-banding? I get wanting a challenge but if I set the starting conditions so I'm a space-hegemon it kinda kills it to see everyone catch up after a year
