Combat, trading and exploration are in this game, the universe is very vast and good looking, however the feature "powerplay" is not able to make E:D as dynamic as EVE online

Terragenesis is a good game, but it's gameplay differs too much to be in this list. It's mainly focused on planet management campaign rather than on any MMO pvp, pve or whatever category.

14 Gratuitous Space Battles alternatives
Who needs backstory? Who needs resource-gathering? Diplomacy is so last year. Gratuitous Space Battles cuts right to the chase of sci-fi strategy games, and deals with large, completely unjustified space battles between huge opposing space fleets.
Gratuitous Space Battles has no features, suggest some!
