Thank you for your fast reply. I really love the vibe of the stories which could be experienced.  For me the book just seems to lack the visual immersion in the universe you create, which in role-playing games is important to me to "feel" it

The game isn't trying to provide a pre-built universe, it's trying to give players the power to explore and create. The best way to think of it is that the galaxy is a framework to help you create. If someone is from Forge, you get a chance to think about how their clothing, technology, health, mannerisms, culture, etc might reflect their upbringing on an industrial factory world with all the pollution that entails. Then, you can compare that to someone from Harvest or Windsong and because the game encourages you to think about these things rather than just giving you 13 generic species, it'll hopefully let you engage with it on a deeper level.

Okay, I see. Coming from Possum Creek Games books which visualize their colourful, wholesome and diverse worlds in the role-playing materials, it would be hard for me not to have that kind of immersion. Different concepts and to each one their prefered piece of cake
