You CAN'T see how many systems there are or where they are at the start of the game. I.e. line-of-sight galaxy exploration. Would add to the realism factor, and IMO would not deduce from playability too much.

SE2 had that; you could only see your own home system and any other systems you have explored on the galaxy map. That idea was scrapped in SE3 for *realism* purposes, as it was assumed that any decent spacefaring civilization would have telescopes of some sort to at least see the stars with
Now hidden *non-star* systems, that would be interesting... maybe a flag on each system type whether it's visible or not
