Dunno. You think you could manage to allow a character that doesn't have to read armoury pages or look at stats? Empirical data only?
Doing Hep universe exploration might fit into that. Especially if you do it manually! No time to look at the armory if the electrons in your body are spontaneously being converted into antimatter.
The fun for me would be making people describe the ridiculous, broken gear without using the shortcut of the cop-out names or analogies.
Hep universe exploration would either be me doing nothing, or me solving all the problems for you guys by going at them hammer-and-tongs. I haven't gone over all of them in detail, but some of the problem universes look very fixable by applying scientific principles to it. Spiders, for one. There's some potentially interesting problems, but I don't see much of a payoff in fixing them for you.
It might be fun to design all my own gear, but I don't know what the point is to that, in a universe ruled by power-creep and indescribable magic artifacts. If I can describe it, it will likely be worse than anything 'magic', because... ? It also wouldn't be fun because it wouldn't be special. Anything I make that is allowed to function would be available to the guys who broke the universe, where it would be immediately misused.
I think the only thing that might be fun (other than playing the opposing side and killing you all), would be a character made by you guys, with zero OOC information. No wiki, no stats, no equipping, I just get stuff and examine it personally, because the names are meaningless. Reading mission briefings just makes me sad, reading armory items makes me sad, whipping up stats makes me sad, etcetera. There might be a little fun with examining something and asking a basic question about it's design here and there.
