Kerbal space program with realism mods.
Take on mars
Moonbase alpha

because it's fucking boring

fun > realism

I wonder the same thing. All the games recommended so far aren't really what I'm looking for–story-driven, single-player, action-oriented hard sci-fi.
I just want a Revelation Space game. As sci-fi goes, it's not even that hard, but I just want some shootbang and investigation in a world of psychotic posthuman factions and galactic Lovecraftian horror.

kill yourself

Space Engineers, turn on wolves, spiders, patrols and attack drones. Good fucking luck. Wolves can literally jump on top of a 40 foot tall structure, that is when they get tired of eating it. Wolves can eat metal in that game.

Hard sci-fi is pretty much realism over fun by definition you silly nigger.
