Hm..... space empire building game from 1st person perspective?
Difficult to place. You start off with a single fighter, fly around, do missions, blow up pirates, trade resources. Then once you get enough money (or get lucky and get someone to abandon their ship), you can buy more fighters or freighters, even your own space stations. Eventually you can build up your own fleet of ships that you can control (all while you are still flying around in one of the ships you own). All of this with over 60 + star systems that you can roam at will.
It has a very steep learning curve (game could REALLY use a better tutorial), but once you get into it is very addictive.
