You looking at like alien proliferation or mostly humans?
One big government like The Empire/Star Trek thing or several smaller ones?
What sort of tech?
Like sort of low future, just get into FTL, pistols and shotguns but also laser variants and jet packs.  Or are regular kinetic weapons basically obsolete.  Any sort of retro vibe with the cyberpunk...like The Future as imagined in the 60s/80s or just straight like modern concept futuristic?

It's a fun idea.

Currently humans. However, it is something I would hear opinions on.

Most likely multiple factions, perhaps with one major empire on the decline. Hoping to replicate something similar to the Age of Sail (British, Spanish, French empire).

Last two questions are sort of connected. Absolutely retrofuturistic, not hyperrealistic future. Keeping a bit of an unpolished, rugged feel, but with lots of cybernetics and AGI advancement. Star Wars is probably a good comparison, but with more of a cyberpunk coat of paint.
