Stellar Tactics review

This is a game i have dreamed of existing for years. The CRPG in space. It could have just been the turn based on the ground combat and that would have been amazing but instead it incorporates space sim activites with ship combat, mining, exploration. Everything currently available in the EA is immense, more game than most triple A titles, and the dev is still working on it and from what I saw gearing up to release chapter 3 at some point. Thanks dev, this game is amazing!!!

Fun, Full of Potential, Odd glitches

I've only really explored combat in this game and I'd like to focus strictly on it as it is apparently the most important thing to me. Pros: Weapon selection and slight customizations. Proficiencies that level as you use them. Skills that are useful. Almost all weapons are relevant with various level between them. Cons: Combat is slow and the speed cannot be adjusted. (This is mostly relevant when fighting trash mobs, IMO) Everytime I start it up I need to re-adjust the resolution as the default resets. Combat is simple; There's no real cover to hide behind, there are decorations strewn about but they're not interactable in combat. Space combat is just turning in circles to offer different shield angles while keeping your fire concentrated on theirs; putting forward facing guns and lowering the turret amount would help. Overall I'm thoroughly enjoying this game but fear that the novelty will wear off quickly as I don't feel like I'm challenged enough to innovate my combat approach. To be fair most games are like this, I'd love to find a game where increasing difficulty would give the enemy access to more advanced tactics and cohesiveness instead of just increasing enemy health and damage.

This definitely needs more work. Especially when it comes to guidance. You never know which door leads where or where the mission objective inside a building really is. The tutorials are walls of text, enemies aren't marked on the flayfield. The entry hurdle to this game is quite high.

Really good game

Already lots of things to do. Nice ground combat, decent space combat system, mining, trading, crafting. Enormous universe. Bought this game few days ago and already have over 40 hours of good fun.

Slow and unrewarding

This game is trying to be everything, tactical combat, trade, travel, exploration, etc, and not really doing any of them well. The absolute worst aspect is travel. Literally spending 15+ minutes just staring at the screen DOING NOTHING while your ship slooooooowly makes it to another star system. What's in that system? Who knows, you have to slooooowly scan each and every planet to reveal anything. This is also going on for quest objectives that you do know where they are as well. Ground missions are also long, drawn out slogs through mostly empty locations. Although it appears on the surface to be a tactical combat game, rest assured you can just stand there and slug it out with enemy's, it makes little difference. It's no deeper than the side view combat of a game like Darkest Dungeon, just with more mouse clicks to accomplish anything. I think the developers are going for an epic scale, but there has to be something filling that epic space for it to be interesting, otherwise it's just...space. And being annoyed the whole time by the interface and the lackluster combat system just doesn't make it any better.
