What players think
The recurring themes across 170 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It's got ship customization and several ship types, extra content and skirmish modes, a rather decent AI from I've seen in the campaign.
It positions itself between the slow-burn planning of 4X strategy and the immediacy of real-time tactical combat, asking players not only to think like a commander overseeing an expanding interstellar presence, but also to act decisively in the chaos of battle.
It has a nice campaign with many varied mission objectives, with a sizable length and full voice acting.
I would like to see some improvements on weapons sound quality, they don't have the punch I would expect but I do enjoy the voice acting and music is surprisingly good too!
Graphics – The graphics are functional with a good zoom feature that lets you focus on the action, like targeting individual turrets.
