Have you checked out Starbase? It may be considered “dead” nowadays (I myself haven’t played in a little over a year), but it’s like what Star Citizen wants to be. It’s an MMO in a MASSIVE shared server with everyone. You get to literally build your ships from scratch (and decide where literally everything goes, down to the bolt placement), or you can buy pre- and player-deisgned ships. The game takes place orbiting a gas giant with like 7 moons and a huge asteroid belt, except pretty much everything is actually to real life scale. It’s ENORMOUS, but so cool.
