It’s really worth the buy. Vanilla is fun on its own, but there are also expansions that change how pawns and factions interact for role playing purposes through a modifiable belief system, one expansion that makes it more Lovecrafty, and an expansion that gives you a lot of new technology.
None of those are necessary if they’re not up your alley, but if space survival plus any of those things sounds more fun to you, the expansion(s) would probably be worth buying.
