"Space is a hell of a thing but you need to be sure that this is what you want. Like, what you really want. The idea of space exploration to further the frontiers of mankind is noble, but let's not kid ourselves – it's really all about furthering the profit margins. There's money to be made and out there is the place to make it, but you hear all kinds of stories… equipment malfunctions, strange discoveries, crewmembers going insane… You'll be out there in the reaches, alone, for months or years, breathing recycled air and drinking recycled water, with nothing but a few feet of metal and shielding between you and certain death.

Tends more towards Outland/blue-collar sci-fi. It's not really a bug hunt game, you're more than likely to find that the 'monster' (when there is one) walks among you.

Makes sense. In the first Alien, to me the Alien was just a force of nature. The real villain was the corporation.
