Identifying old science fiction video game

There was an old game which I recalled had some kind of space construct or spacecraft that basically created small black holes to destroy planets that were around the size of Saturn. I want to say it was called "Star Ocean" or something along those lines but hell if I remember. I just remember the spacecraft was found abandoned with absolutely no trace of who made or used it or what it was intended for but it was massive, I swear I remember a character's dialogue making a statement about it being big enough to hold an entire civilisation. It wasn't Warhammer because I never bothered with any of that series's games. --72.234.12.37 (talk) 16:28, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Not one of the Star Ocean games? 2606:A000:1126:28D:95AA:34CE:C3B:D9EB (talk) 17:05, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

I'm honestly not too sure, my memory of it is way too blurry. I also did not realise Star Ocean had so many titles released which furthers my confusion. At the time of typing the question I was debating in my head if it was more likely similar to Star Ocean or Xeno or if it was from something else entirely. I don't remember what the art style was at all let alone if the game was a japanese import, I can only remember (what I think was) a cinematic sequence involving the space construct I described. I don't think it was Star Ocean though because I think I remember the game primarily being space travel or space combat orientated (though I might be mixing myself up with X2 or Freespace), not terrestrial. --72.234.12.37 (talk) 05:26, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
