Catzye Take
While X4: Foundations isn't our usual manga or anime beat, the sheer scope and depth of its space opera narrative can certainly appeal to fans of grand sci-fi storytelling. It's fantastic to see a developer so dedicated to its community with such significant, free expansions. This kind of ongoing support is what keeps a universe alive.
