galaxy online 2 (though i'm pretty sure it's dead now.)

one of those stupid build your base and never die games on it's surface, but with an incredible army building mechanic (spaceships, in this case), and a healthy PvE game to use them in. had a gacha component, too, where they clearly didn't understand the value of a dollar, but if you were good you could in game trade the PvE drops for all of it (a small purchase was required, but everything past that was optional/get out of stuck/whalemode)

Space: Glory Through Conquest is an even better fleet combat game, though the shipbuilder itself wasn't quite as deep. MMO, with instanced games. when it was popular, each game started with a couple hundred players. i think they were down to 50 per instance towards the end. but basically you start with a couple locations, which you develop for resources, to build ships to claim more locations. loop until most of the galaxy is claimed, then (or while) attack your neighbors to grow your territory until only a few players remain. you can keep playing until you're out of territory, but once you're out, you have to jump into the next instance. each one could last a few months.

i really want to replicate this one, but condense the experience down to a few hours.

Boom! That's right, this is all happening! You cannot change the channel now!
the media's gonna put a negative spin on this, like when we killed that guy.
