  • story

    The story is described as somewhat limited and early in development, with a short campaign that leaves players eager for more content and depth. While the narrative feels derivative and static at times, the addition of open-world, random missions, and various gameplay modes significantly increases immersion and replay value. Despite some bugs and pacing issues, players appreciate the sci-fi atmosphere and have faith in future expansions of the storyline.

    • “Compared to the handful of scripted missions from the original, this campaign feels more fleshed out with cargo ships, mining ships, etc. Although I would appreciate more spontaneity (such as warping to a sector and needing to rescue a ship from an attack) and easier traveling between connected sectors so I don't have to warp multiple times to my destination.”
    • “A few bugs and limited story missions aside (early access so still getting updates and issues ironed out) - this is a truly excellent starship strategy game with an amazing sense of presence, giving orders from the helm of your ship on a holographic battlemap and seeing the action taking place in real time out of the windows is such a great experience.”
    • “While the storyline runs out quickly, there’s a whole series of random missions and trade to take on from the various spaceports in different systems, to keep improving your fleet.”
    • “The open world mode breaks for me on the mission to capture your second ship every time I try.”
    • “It's a shame because I loved the first one, but the fact that the open-world mode just halts your progression because of a blatant bug after about 4 missions ruins the game.”
    • “The game is so empty, the story breaks if a secondary character dies, and just feels so static.”

    The game's graphics are generally praised for their stunning visuals, immersive art style, and realism, representing a significant improvement over previous titles. However, performance issues such as severe FPS drops and stuttering, especially related to the detailed holographic mode, detract from the experience for some players. Overall, while the graphics impress, optimization concerns may impact enjoyment depending on hardware.

    • “The ships feel as maneuverable as they should relative to their sizes, the guns have the appropriate punch, the visuals are just stunning!”
    • “The graphics are improved over the first (or maybe it's just me), but I have spent 5 hours in just one sitting getting immersed.”
    • “Amazing graphics mixed with challenging missions.”
    • “After just one fight, you'll experience massive FPS drops and stuttering that progressively worsen due to the holographic mode / strategy mode.”
    • “Too much graphical detail in the holographic overlay is causing severe FPS drops, dragging performance to a halt.”
    • “If holographic ship models were simpler polygon objects instead of the current overly detailed graphics eaters, I would get great FPS and prefer that.”

    The gameplay offers an engaging and immersive tactical experience with a promising core loop, though it is currently hindered by frustrating controls, performance issues, and bugs typical of early access.

    • “The immersive gameplay is the best.”
    • “Great immersion, engaging gameplay and mechanics.”
    • “After just one fight... one... you'll find yourself experiencing massive FPS drops and stuttering that only gets progressively worse the longer you play because of its key mechanic: holographic mode / strategy mode.”
    • “The joystick is frustrating and I can't quite work out its mechanics enough to pilot reliably.”
    • “In summary, the price point doesn't meet gameplay value, but I expect things to improve.”

    Optimization is mixed, with some users experiencing good performance on their systems, especially when using specific strategies like farming with a mining ship. However, others report severe FPS drops and stuttering over time, particularly due to mechanics like holographic or strategy modes. Overall, there are notable improvements but performance issues persist for some players.

    • “Game is good and stressful at times, but I recommend farming with a mining ship first. Performance is good for my specs, at least.”
    • “Very good sequel to the original with improvements to performance, open world mode, and the classic gauntlet mode.”
    • “After just one fight, you'll find yourself experiencing massive FPS drops and stuttering that only gets progressively worse the longer you play due to its key mechanic: holographic mode / strategy mode.”
    • “Let the peasants try to play your game and have their friends laugh at and tease them while they complain about poor performance.”
  • music

    The music in the game is described as quiet, dull, and lacking impact or excitement, contributing to a feeling of no urgency during combat. Users find the audio experience underwhelming, with no memorable or engaging musical elements to enhance gameplay.

    • “The combat feels really unimpactful, there's no cool music, no big alarms; it's all quiet and dull.”
    • “There is no urgency, no bang from the guns firing, and the music fails to enhance the excitement.”
    • “The lack of impactful music and sound effects makes the gameplay feel weightless and boring.”
  • stability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
