Is it worth playing or is it just a meme?
It's a very pretty space sim. For content you'll be better off with Evochron Legacy, X3: Albion Prelude or Freespace 2 if you just want a solid sim and don't care about space trucking as much.
I'm inclined to say it's a meme.
It's a reason for more flight sticks being made though, which is a nice knock on effect for sim autists. And since all the normies play ED it's a containment game in itself

I have gotten over a hundred hours out of it so I'd say it's worth it
