What players say

Little lovely game. Though i have not finiahed main campaign yet. I would recomend it on sale only. It is decent space game where you can conquer territory in space and stations and so on. But there is a lot of stuff that feels just half baked. But also a lot of stuff what is fun. For me most annoying were that your ship would only fire at single target even though some of the weapons were just idle because they are...

Is it nearly as complex and intricat as X4: Foundation? Nope. Is it as expansive and detailed as Elite Dangerous? Also nope. But it's more fun to play in the minute-to-minute experience, easier to manage fleets and trades, the story campaign is actually pretty decent, and I love flying around a capital warship from the get go and managing resources, politics, fleets, expansion, the works.
