Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Good game with a good gameplay loop but unfortunately the playerbase has already dwindled to near zero just two months after the game's release.
92 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I think it is incredibly creative to have small quests to go on during each round to gain better items for your ship, it is a well implemented feature that doesn't get stale as you play even if it is a bit repetitive.

The graphics are great.

Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
Boarding is consistently the best strategy, and choosing boarding over ship combat does two detrimental things for the game - it turns the game into a generic fps/hero shooter, and the team with the highest skilled player (in fps games) will always win.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
When you read what the community says, a lot of people praise the art style, the soundtrack, and how fun it can be if you play with a group of friends.
