From what I've seen, being a main character in one would suck way worse though.

Probably, but I would much rather be a background character in the intro to a space opera instead.

You mean those who are on a huge space station that gets blown to bits during the intro sequence?

Yay, space opera! 🥰

Highly recommend almost everything by Peter F. Hamilton if you haven't read them, arguably top 3 space opera authors ❤️

Edit ...: and Boo! Google!
