It's Star Citizen's "single player campaign". They got a bunch of Hollywood actors voicing CGI versions of themselves, so I guess that's where they spent a chunk of their money.
I found a video from 9 months ago, and this looks pretty terrible, especially the FPS parts, but the whole aesthetic is so boring and featureless. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDtjzLzs7V8
Squadron 42 is the singleplayer main development focus which we are told contains all the features and functionality that will make star citizen great and which are then slowly drip-fed into the actually playable game. I have seen nothing besides the "wow cool features" that would put it on a level above 2016's Call of Duty Infinite Warfare.
I don't do combat so I have zero interest in it, I play SC because I like doing salvage and cargo trading. It's also the only game I've found where you play as a person on a ship and not the ship itself, free to leave your seat and walk around mid-flight even going on to form part of the gameplay loops.
I feel some dissonance with the rest of the community when a lot of the game's FOMO sales drives revolve around cockpit only PvP orientated ships where this one will be the NEW META on sale for LIMITED TIME ONLY tied directly into the SQUADRON 42 LORE. Like I just want to salvage wrecks, drag boxes around my cargo hold and do contraband runs on the dark side of moons but there's like 8 ships in the game that allow for this.
What even is sqaudron 42? Some people really think there will be some kind of second game?
