That's as usual in 4x games with tech tree. The low tier techs aren't as usefull as the later ones. And I like the fact you really have to choose in the end because it costs so much. You can't have everything.

I think it would be neat if the tech trees allowed for deeper specialization. Higher tier techs are so expensive you are pretty much forced to be a generalist because in the time it takes you to research a tech that is to you advanced you can unlock 20 different lower tier things.

I think the help is very clear. When you zoom in a little to the tech tree, you can see the icons underneath it. Each icon is either a new ship module or system improvement you can buy, or (in purple) a new resource which is revealed. Hovering over each icon tells you exactly what it will do. Can you give an example of one specific tech which is not clear?

I like the basic idea of the tech tree, but to me it's a bit of a shot in the dark. It's not clear what exactly you are researching, and once you have researched it id does not seem to relate in the game. This however could be because it might yet just not be implemented or that I am a total idiot and I am missing something. But I feel they should give a little more info as to what the research will actually produce.

Actually, I think the tech tree is kind of neat. It forces you to make decisions and tradeoffs. There is a good organization into the four quadrants, but you can't (or "shouldn't") ignore any one of them. After you have played a little bit more, it will be interesting to see if you find any specific points which could be improved. That feedback would be great.
