    A full-on space opera looter shooter RPG, that is brimming with content and exciting combat set pieces, but which doesn’t quite know when to stop before it starts to feel repetitive.

    Everspace 2 is on the arcadish side, with a fun and simple gameplay. That said, if you miss games like Freelancer or Dark Star One, you really should consider to give it a try.    … Full Review »

    I was really looking forward to this game. A single-player, loot-based action rpg space game sound like a very fun game to me. But after 35I was really looking forward to this game. A single-player, loot-based action rpg space game sound like a very fun game to me. But after 35 hours I had to give up. First of all everything you do in the game feels incredibly slow: The ships movement, traveling between systems and the whole progress. Most of the time you are searching the areas for keys like batteries oder or energy cores to open boxes or doors. Often the game don't show you where to look for them so you just have to search all of the place what can be very exhausting due to the slow movement. You can buy ships with a higher agility but even those feel kind of slow and they have low armor what brings me to the difficulty. Even on the first two (of 5) difficulty level the game can be very challenging. Enemies just one level above yours can deplete your shield and armory with few shots while you hardly do any damage to them. And that happens fast if you just follow the main quest so you have to do some of the side quests and time consuming searching stuff. And that's why Everspace 2 feels so uncomfortable to play though graphics and story are not bad at all.… Full Review »
