I love it, it took me a while to really get into it but it was well worth it.
My best suggestion would be to ignore the main story and follow side quests, that's the real meat of the game.
Exploration is a mixed bag, if you are expecting Skyrim where you can get lost going in any direction you are going to be disappointed. The planets are mostly empty but incredibly well made from a space simulation standpoint, I spent a while just traveling the solar system and taking pictures of cool places I found.
I think following the main quest until the first temple is a good idea, personally. After that, you're in a pretty good spot to decide whether you want to pursue the main quest line more or focus on side quests.
Yeah, that's a good point to go do something else. I do wish the game was better at explaining how it's systems work though, I'm still figuring stuff out 80 hours in.
