Bad Controls

I didn't play this on gog but like to review stuff here. Main problem this game has is the awful UI and controls. Graphically I like the art style and voice acting and music are good. The game loop of doing missions and upgrading your ship is also one that I like. What really drags the game down is the UI and the controls, it has one of the wierdest and least intuitive button layouts of any game I have ever played using a controller. From many other revieews I've read it's not any better with mouse and keyboard and doesn't support hotas properlly either. On setup you get the option to show ps4 buttons, I'm using a ps4 controller to play it so picked that option but in game isnstead of press square, press circle press R2 etc I get press 1 press 6 hold etc constantly. WTF are they on a ps4 controller. If the controlls and the UI were fixed this would be a solid 4 star game but as is I'm giving it 2 stars only because the graphics, sound, voice acting music and stability are good otherwise I'de give it one star.

Bad design

I had the unfortunate pleasure to play this game on Steam and refunded it after half an hour. There is some value in some of the cartoonish designs and "Star Wars" feels, but that's it. It looks and play like un unfinished project. There is no cohesion between the Ui, character design, cut scenes, and gameplay. It's repetitive and uninteresting. I am sure that the people working on title are talented and dedicated but they clearly lacked time, budget and art power to make this game.

Spiritual successor of Freelancer

A spiritual successor of Freelancer. I didn't buy on GOG, but i have a good experience with this game. Pros. *Best soundtraks in all games a ever played. change to station to the station and you will find one to suit your taste, i personaly like the dark country station "The Stinger" *Combat is very arcade, it's easily especially for those just wan't to jump for the action, its simple and you won't struggle to much with controls once you get the hang of it. The storyline in the game is good, not the best of all, but good enough to keep you playing to see the ending, also, the story isn't very linear, so you won't be forced to follow the story if you don't want too, much like an open world game, you can travel the galaxy map whatever you want without engage on the storyline. *Is one of the most stylized space shooter games, remind a lot 90's space shooter games. *Juno Markev is a very relatable character and you will like her for sure. along some other memorable ones like Ruth. *Theres a ship painting tool that you can use to paint your ship WHATEVER way you like it! If you are a streamer you going to love this feature. Cons The IA is relentless in higher levels to the point of getting anoying, watch out for ambushes. The game is too extensive at some point it gets repetitive. Theres just a small handfull of ships and just some few variations. Theres not enough variety of objectives and rewards to keep you invested in the game, in the long run, so at some point the only reward you will actually have is the story. Overall the game is good enough for casual players, it isn't elite dangerous, Star Citzen or X4, but it's a good space shooter that will keep you hooked for days having a lot of fun.

Abandonware

This game was effectively abandoned after the developer decided to go one year Epic exclusive, was given a lot of flak by the gaming community, and he decided to rage-quit game development to make audiobooks instead. Because of this the DLC plans and the promissed mod-backend were never delivered, though he did somehow manage to keep it going long enough to get it released on GOG, Steam, and all the major consoles including Switch. Funny thing, that. I liked the game even with it's flaws, but the way he handled it is pretty terrible IMHO.

Disappointing and broken

The piloting in this is great, makes me think of the old Rogue Squadron games with how fast things turn and how well things move in comparison to the slow plodding you get in games like Elite: Dangerous. Everything else is just super sub par. From a clunky commodities system to a lack of ships. But that would only deserve a 2/5 if that was the case. Playable and fun at times if underdeveloped and clunky. What takes it down to the 1/5 level is that the game is fundamentally broken. It will minimise itself out of nowhere and leave you with a targeting reticule for a mouse while you look at your desktop, no way of bringing it back up short of Task Managering it to death and restarting. It will occasionally turn your screen an inescapable grey colour, that even CTRL+ALT+DELing won't get you out of, requiring a hard reboot of your computer. I've had five of those two combined so far, and I haven't even been playing for three hours total yet.
