These two from the list. But it's more like hope for the best, fear the

Also possibly space opera game Exodus.

I hadn't heard of that one. (more info here for the curious:
https://www.exodusgame.com/)

[At least, I'm assuming its this one.]

Not knowing more than the very basics, I'll admit that it LOOKS
interesting, in terms of visuals and setting, but I can't help but
worry that it'll be another too-large open-world grind fest. There
isn't much info about the actual gameplay but it looks like it has
more similarities to something like "Destiny" than "Mass Effect".
Which is fine, if you like that, but definitely not something that
appeals to me.
