    DLC hit us. It's so full of content that it hurts. New side missions, we got Secrets of Aethera storyline missions, new stations, ships. I can make my own weapon now. DLC is well worth the money so check it out.

    I will not review SPG2 here because there are many reviews of the game. I will just say that it's not X, Eve, Elite or Star citizen. And that's a good thing.

It's also surprisingly bug free, for a game that's still in beta, it doesn't crash, nothing. It misses a campaign (I think it will be added in a couple of weeks just in time for release), but even just the free roam mode is great fun. I also loved the idea of having different classes that you can choose with different abilities, some make your ship stronger while others buff your (future) fleet, along with a ton of perks that you can customize as you level up. Gives it a lot of replayability as you try different styles and approaches. Even the music's great. I honestly can't find anything to complain about, and that's pretty rare for me.… Expand

    Real Gem of a Space Sim.

    I don't normally do early access games but after reading reviews by players and watch some lets play videos I found i was unable to wait to buy the game and try it for myself. I bought it back in April and found that as a space combat sim it ticket a lot of the boxes other games in recent times were missing.

    I bought it back in April and found that as a space combat sim it ticket a lot of the boxes other games in recent times were missing. The full 3D flight and streaming of the entire Gemini system are pretty nice and I spent hundreds of hours playing in the beta in free roam mode doing side missions or pirating.

    The Dev team at LGM is second to none there have been so many updates/ fixes and content releases since April they listen to the fan base and have included a lot of fan suggestions to the release game. They are very active on forums and very friendly always willing to listen to new ideas and willing to make changes to the game for the better.

    The game may be released now but that doesn't mean LGM are done developing the title they are now working on post release updates and content and at least one expansion(free of charge) is in the works that I know about. The games story line and free roam are now enabled but I would expect a lot more to come from LGM in the coming months.

    The game has been one of the best buys I've found in terms of space sim it has both the feel of some classic games and the visuals of a modern space sim.

    Game play is both easy to learn but brutal at times you can do many of the things you would find in other space sims, like trading and mining to capturing ships and selling them.

    On the whole the game offers a lot of content and many ways to play, it lets the player choose how they want to play without holding them back from progressing or holding their hand.    … Expand

    Someone on the forums mentioned that this game should be medically approved. I have to agree with him to some extent, but this game can also make the adrenaline rush to your head. It's fast paced, if you want it to be. It's intense, if you want it to be. It's relaxing, if you want it to be.
    This is a breath of fresh air to the space sim genre

    Not sure what I can write to add, to what has already been said.

    True sandbox, open world, choose-your-own-fate gameplay. I can't believe it's taken this long for a game of this type to come along, and it's really high caliber. So much fun that I had to find somewhere to give a favorable review, and I am rarely impressed enough to do so by a game.

    Highly recommended.

    You can hire mercenaries to fight alongside you and even buy little fighter jets that deploy from within your hangar to help you (think: drones from Eve Online).

    There are nearly a hundred ships to aquire by either buying them or boarding an enemy ship, killing the crew, grappling the ship and towing it back to a nearby station to either sell ( for a very high price ;] ) or place in your garage for use, and they are all customisable. You can equip them with a variety of different weapons like railguns, plasma cannons, beam weapons and heavy weapons. You can enhance your systems by purchasing upgrades for things like your propulsion engines or shield generators. You can even give them a new paint job and add decals.

    It plays like an open world RPG. You pick from three different classes and go around doing freelance missions, mining, fighting or exploring, and it all gives you XP (and sometimes money) to level up your character. Levelling gives you the ability to spend points on improving your class skills, which can be used in battle, and attaining perks, which provide buffs to a number of things like increasing troop strength for boarding ships or improving trade prices.

    There is a recently added Campaign mode, which is basically a story mode. The story isn't great, and it's a little buggy, but you can still freely explore and do whatever you want while doing it. I found that despite the weak story, the missions were okay and gave you something else to do. If you're feeling aimless and not sure what to do next, the campaign missions can be a good way to provide yourself with a sort of goal or objective. If you really dislike it, then you can just ignore it all together and stick with freelance missions or hunting down relics deep within enemy territory or whatever else your heart desires. There's always plenty to do.

    Overall, it's a fantastic game with a lot of content. The developers are also very active and involved with the community, and they update regularly. I expect the game will get even better from here.    … Expand

    My first impressions of SPG2 was that it might make my favourite top 5 space sims… it has the potential but it lacks a few vital essentials like a functional overview such as Freelancer. I was probably more than 20 hours into my early access when I realized just how much I missed it.

I was probably more than 20 hours into my early access when I realized just how much I missed it.

    It’s no game breaker but having played Freelancer for well over 1500hrs and EVE online for much more you quickly realize just how much it holds the game back from being so much better. I’ve put some 140 hrs into the game (including beta) and I’m far from finished with it.

    The good news is that some serious HUD tweaks are coming as the DEV’s work tirelessly to address a few bugs that appeared at launch and they’ve been responding to some imbalance issues relating to leveling, the game having only been released a few weeks now is already feeling much better.

    Visually the game scores 9/10 Just beautiful!

    Soundtrack 9/10 Really great soundtrack.

    Storyline 6/10 Story was OK, I just didn’t get into it. Just dialogue, no character cut scenes at all.

    Voice acting 6/10 Some were hilarious they were so bad.

    Gameplay 9/10 Some solid gameplay mechanics, easy to get into but hard to master.

    Replay ability 9/10 I got my money’s worth just playing the Beta early access!

    General Content 9/10 Some real quality ships, gear, missions, bounties, capture ship gameplay etc…

    LGM Dev’s 10/10 Never come across such a great team working so hard with so little.

    I just finished the story mode… overall I enjoyed it, I’ve still got a few high bounties to go after and I haven’t explored all of the map. The game as far as the DEV’s are concerned isn’t finished they have a big wish list of features they still hope to implement and honestly I can’t wait.

    Starpoint Gemini 2 easily makes it into my top 10 space sim games and if you’e looking for something to fill the void while we wait for Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous etc Just get it already.

    SPG2 will keep on getting better as they go and I’m looking forward to it and new content.    … Expand

    In case you have not noticed yes I am a hard-core space gamer;)
    Even in alpha state this game is well worth the price and in better shape than most release quality games!. You start the game in a predefined ship that you can sell to get a different ship(be it a bigger one)there is a garage that you can park all the ships you have this is a great feature. There is plenty to do, such as mining which is done via blowing the asteroids apart and getting the ore that drops. This feature is still being worked on and will get even better.

    Trading is also good, with all the many stations and planets you can spend many hours in search of a better price for goods. There is also freelance missions, currently there is passenger, trade, assassination, patrol and rescue they are quite good but this is a feature that is still being tweaked so expect them to get even better:)

    The graphics are really well done and run good on most systems. Gemini is a huge place with lots of areas that you will want to visit and explore, in a way it reminds me of freelancer in regards to exploring and how trading works.

    The sound is also quite nice that draws you into that mood of open space. The voice overs and the crew sounds are excellent and they are still adding more in. The sound effects such as explosions and weapons fit in just right.

    The game runs good with very little CTD's and that is damn good for a game that is still in alpha state!
    All in all I give this game an A+ so if you are on the fence about buying it, stop and get it now. By doing so you are doing a great deed in helping fund a really great game that I think will have its name in the "Space Game Hall of Fame"... Also be sure to check out the community forums http://steamcommunity.com/app/236150/discussions/ And the main website http://www.starpointgemini.com/
    Best of luck to all the pilots and god speed.

    The Gemini system is alive with ships going about their business, traders and patrol ships cruising around, pirates taking chances on unsuspecting victims and you are all part of this big picture.

    The game is beautiful. Many times I find myself just floating above a planet and watching the scene, listening to the game's music and just generally relaxing watching the stars or the satellites rising and going by then descending behind the horizon as they follow their orbit.
    Then I fire up my overdrive and race towards the twin suns, flying under and through the arcing sun flares...

    There is the combat then. Like many other players, I had my fair share of playing other space sims, but this game caught me by surprise: here you are the captain of a multi-thousand ton space faring war vessel, and you need to take a different approach to combat - instead of dog fighting you need to steer the ship as well as aiming and firing often in totally opposite directions. You have tactical elements, like 4 tier shields, limited firing arcs and battery reserve: you are advised to rotate your ship around according to your shield-tier damage, battery reserve and weapon firing arc. If your left side shield is low, you rotate to present undamaged side to fire and let the damaged one to recover. If your bow turrets are empty, you offer your devastating broadside salvo to the enemy while your bow batteries recharge. This mechanic take a bit of time to muster, but as soon as you are familiar with it, it becomes second nature and immensely good fun.

    There are 75 (!) ships in the game, ranging from gunships to carriers and dreadnoughs, freighters and freightliners. All of them are possible to captain, purchase or steal. They are beautiful designs, you soon pick up favorites, each of them have their own characteristics, strength and weaknesses in amazing detail.

    Over 300 stations and planets to visit, explore and dock, land on, every one of them are different artwork. Should I say more?

    It was worth my money alone to have conversations with the exceptionally professional and customer oriented developer team, taking part in constructive debates along a great community, and seeing the game evolve. This game and the developer team behind it have great future, I recommend it to every space fan (and not to just gamers - I have recently took some unbelievably beautiful starscape as a screen background, the game is an HD movie experience)    … Expand

    EDIT: V0.8000 - Most systems in place (being polished to perfection as LGM does!).

    Star Point Gemini 2 - So much to do ingame already, as of latest patch V0.8005 Beta:

    Collision system now in place with damage (No more flying through stations, asteroids etc or you will pay the price hehe)

    Fighter wings for ships with hanger bays are a blast to play with.

    70 ships to buy/capture/destroy

    Equipment/Weapons that can be modified with enhancements

    Customizable ship - Can re-color certain parts of your ship, add decals etc.

    Consumables - Shield boosters, damage boosters, repair nanobots, etc

    Power ups - Boost your Railgun damage, or Beam weapons etc for a few seconds to turn the tide in battle (Use them wisely though as they have a cool down for re-use)

    Ship cloaking (Ships that have cloak devices) - A lot of fun with this one :)

    Hero Characters to hunt down and kill for excellent credit reward. (You can kill a few of us Forum members now as Hero Characters! - Thanks to LGM's competition)

    Global events - More fun things to do outside of freelance missions etc.

    Junk yards - Cruise the junk yard like a junk yard dog looking for some possible cargo and or poor unsuspecting ships that might contain some nice cargo to liberate from them.

    Trade your wares in stations and planets that you either bought elsewhere or collected from combat or mining. (Price balancing to still be finalized)

    Board and capture ships - Hire troopers and grapple a ship, send in the troops and take over that ship for some extra credits or to take as your own new ship.

    Worm Holes appear around the galaxy and can whip you to somewhere else in no time (Be warned you might turn up somewhere "You dont want to be")

    AI Security forces scan you ship for contraband and give you an option to dump it or duke it out (Pirates life for me, damn the pollice hehe)

    T-drives work as personal T-Gates to quickly jump to other areas very quickly (Same as using T-Gate, but on the spot usage, instead of finding a T-Gate)

    Ability to hanger (Personal hanger accessed via stations and planets) upto 5 ships, which you can swap out when needed. Have a freighter parked in your hanger when you want to do those big commodity runs for the big bucks, or some large scale asteroid mining. Drag out your carrier to go out and take on fleets of enemies with your weapons and your fighter wings.

    Travel the Galaxy map by normal engine power (I have done this and it takes quite some time - grab a coffee and some food), Power to engines (faster travel speed) or by Fast travel ways (Real fast movement across the galaxy)

    Freelance missions, Combat, repair, scan, VIP Courier, Cargo courier the list goes on.

    Steam Workshop - Mods are coming along and many more to come as modders get busy!

    Did I mention how bloody good the galaxy looks, Nebula's are amazing, Asteroid fields are real special (I like to play a pirate, so I like to hide in the dust clouds of some asteroid fields and wait for passing freighters/mining ships for some easy kills and loots. Junk yards look great, and just a reminder again don't run into them they not hurt hehe :)

    Oh and Mod Tools, Want to add a new ship into game, can do!! Want to add new sectors into game, Can do!! Want to add anything virtually into game, can do!!! Probably the best thing of all about SPG2 is the Dev Team, These people are one of the best I have had the pleasure of enjoying an alpha/beta release with. They are always responding to members posts, questions, technical help, and ideas. The Dev Team have even taken ideas from members and have put into game those ideas, what more can you ask for in a Dev Team who cares just as much for the player base as their game, that is simply priceless and a quality lacking in many AAA title Dev Teams. All I can say is, "If you enjoy space gaming, Buy SPG2 today. You wont be disappointed" And drop by the official forums and say hello as well :) http://www.starpointgemini.com/forum    … Expand

    It's plainly stupid how Metacritic can have one paid critic interview that can lower the game score drastically. LEVEL didn't even play Starpoint Gemini 2, otherwise they wouldn't give it a negative review. Or IncGamers, PC Gamer and other prominent magazines got it all wrong and only LEVEL got it right. Shame on you. You dare to call yourself trusted reviewer. Bah.

    This game is worth every penny and its gets better every week, mostly due to devs dedication and free content updates we get.    … Expand

    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.
