Can I play this singleplayer yet
It's an MMO, so the Persistent Universe is multiplayer. People are generally pretty cool, and spread out enough you can avoid them. I play solo, and don't have any problems.
There's some single-player FPS and racing stuff too.
If you're on the fence, wait for a free-fly event. There's free-flies multiple times a year. You can play for free and test things out before spending anything.
