I liked it.

I played Mars: War Logs before, so I knew what awaits me in this game :) I have to admit, it is good, I mean really good. The story is very enjoyable, at least for me it was. Yes, there are many backtracking between different locations, here and there, especially with sidequests, but you know what? Thats why you know the places better and better. I have made myself a build of two specializations: technomancer (magic) and warrior (attack with stick). It did work for me quite ok. I only did have two crashed, but that because I ALT+TABed out of the game and when you leave it in this mode it will hang after 15 Minutes or so. So don't do that. Save the progress and exit the game. I played on: Ryzen 5 1600 with Radeon RX VEGA 7 integrated GPU, 32 GB DDR 3200 MHz RAM, 1 TB SSD, Windows 10 Home 64-bit 21H2. Low settings, 1080p, I've got about 27-45 fps, depending on the scene in the game. So, if you have a better dedicated GPU, it should work without bigger problems.

All necessary components are there

I've never played Spiders game. The premiss of SF and RPG on Mars catched my eye, as well as the discounted price. At firs I felt little lost with controls and suroundings. Died severall times to first enemies. It was great. I started learning to play, was not dying so often and felt acomplished. Finally I've catched all of the mechanics (like upgrades, switching skills and placing mines) and fighting, which started to become tedious, became very enjoyable and rewarding. The world building, with characters and stories, is solid. It is a little clitche-ish sometimes, but not too much. Music is awesome. It is the best part of the game. 12/10 The "romans" part of the game was almost not existing. GOG should not use that tag. Would recommend to any SF RPG fan who are not looking for Dark Souls on Mars.

Doesn't work with more than 4 cores

Got the game on sale and was looking forward to some mediocre fun. The game won't start and crashes to desktop at the loading screen. I look online - have to force windows to start with only 4 cores. Wow, even Mars War Logs didn't have an issue with that. Fixable, sure. But worth it?? Probably not. I choose to take this as a sign from God that I should play something else.

Won't run on multi-thread (newer) PC

Bought new computer: RTX 5060 Ti (16GB Vram) i7-14700f 32GB System RAM Windows 11 Pro Game won't even start now (played fine for nearly two years on old outdated computer)...searched for information on internet and found dozens of threads dicussing how the game will not run on a newer computer running "too many cores". Work-arounds involve going into bios and changing settings -- so, no not happening. I enjoyed playing the game and looked forward to being able to play with better computer (hoping it would look better, etc.) but now cannot even launch the game.

Good idea, good story but flawed combat

This is an attempt to make Mass Effect style of a game on a buidget. That is perfectly fine and for the most part they have managed to pull it out. They have created a world with rich story and plot is happening on Mars, but it is set probably few hundreds of years after Mars colonization started by humans from Earth. There are multiple factions and player's choices seem quite obvious if player wants to play as the good guy or as the bad guy. Those are the only choices really... Unfortunatley, weakest link of this game is the combat and there is a lot of combat. Player is technomancer by default but player can choose to ignore Technomancy in favour for other combat styles or make some combination of it. As idea it is great but something is not right in execution. I love the story so during the Chapter 1 I decided to degrade difficulty to Easy and just go with it. Shame but I still I have enjoyed it. Still I do recommend this game. PS: this is actually a sequel to the game "Mars: War Logs"! I found that while playing Chapter 3.
