    Interface is atrocious, Just requested a refund, It's not playable on 1080p TV because the fonts are tiny the tutorials completely unreadable. Horrible design. Avoid, The concept seems nice ... packaged badly.

    Still buggy piece of crap, I don't understand all the 10 pt reviews. I've tried this game several times over the years and its just a massive bug fest. This latest try, the game crashed on the very first "action" of landing on the first planet. So I didn't even make it past the tutorial. The last time I tried to play this game (about a year ago)I made it a bit into the game, severalStill buggy piece of crap, I don't understand all the 10 pt reviews.

My options were to revert to an older save and lose days of progress or uninstall. Expand

    I really like this kind of game, but it is really hard to enjoy. It is really buggy and unbalanced, even after the third patch. The story and the voice-acting is also aweful.

    There is only one thing I love: It is really fun to board and capture enemy ships

    SG2 has everything that makes space sims great, but despite its complexity is accessible enough to make it a wonderful first step into the genre. [13/2014, p.64]

    It is a vast universe with endless possibilities - nothing more, nothing less. If you prefer solo play and you have a vivid imagination give the game a chance. Otherwise leave it be. [Issue#247]

    An enjoyable single player space romp with a steep learning curve. Ignore the campaign and persevere with the sandbox for a rewarding experience.
