A humble system with a single excellent planet (that is ideal primary colony criteria) is an awesome find. Well, maybe not ideal since some expeditions can beat defenses of a single colony. They probably cannot against two large colonies in the same system. It is less of a good find if system does not have a point for comm relay. (I will smash Domain nav and sensor relays if it is the only way to get a comm relay in the system I want to claim.)
Terran planet with 75% hazard and all of the resources and not too far from core is an awesome find, regardless of system. Some games do not even have 75% hazard Terrans, or they have a 75% Terran with bad resources and bad location (far from core).
Two stars are (mildly) annoying, especially if they make the system bigger. I had that for my primary colonies in two of my games and wished they were only a single star.
Rings (asteroid belts) are annoying if I need to travel through them.
I dislike nebulas, especially if they overlap a jump gate.
I prefer my systems to be minimalist. The best system for me is a small one with two great colony planets (two is enough to repel all expeditions, and more slows the game down), two or three points for relays, and nothing else. Oh, and jump point near one of the planets.
While a system with asteroid belts, nebulas, and a binary might not be the best, min-max optimal system, that is what makes a system
interesting, both visually and gameplay-wise. I genuinely hope Alex does not change the proc gen system to favor anything near as bland as that.
