It's definitely tempting. They improved the story last patch, and with the new guild stuff it might be fun to try out everything from a new perspective.
Looks great. No update for Xbox/PC gamepass yet. Almost ready to move the Steam version and try to port my 190+ save over.Building ships is pretty neat. You still have to ship hunt to find parts to build with, so ship hunting isn't dead at all, but you now have so much capability to create your own S class ships with custom coloring, it's great.
Made myself a red white and blue S class fighter:
Also made a red explorer with the X-wings:
The new stations are awesome too, so much variety. I like how they kept the old stations for pirate hubs, makes them feel very much like small outposts now compared to the new large stations.
I bet they introduce new ship components down the line, maybe with expeditions even. Also shuttles aren't included for custom building yet, but the preview trailer showed them being customized, so that's probably coming at a later date.

As someone with 200+ hours and wouldn't restart, its kind of hard to say yes, but I think that there's no real wrong time to start playing the game again from the beginning. Following along the "main" storyline should open up a lot of the newer stuff (like the Autophage/Staff Multi-tool quests) in a more organic way, rather than like how i had to do it by trying to figure out what perquisite quest i didn't have done yet or never got activated.
Ah okay. Thanks for the info. And yeah I'm mostly just restarting because it's been basically a year since I touched my save. I don't remember what I was doing, where I've been, or what my goals were. I hate coming back to a save like that. I do it for RPGs all the time especially.
