I agree that FTL should be taken down a few notches. Even a few more STL civilizations would be good, with the adventure of taking years (or sometimes months) to travel between solar systems to start a new life in some other corner of Known Civilization (some civilizations might be designed with stasis systems with a high risk factor of freeze-related injuries such as brain damage, further increasing the adventure, intrigue and bravado). I sometimes feel that FTL scemes can be a bit chauvinistic (I've been using that word a lot, haven't I?); just so that travel times seem more comparable with what we experience on Earth.
