Great Potential Ruined By Poor Design
I really, really want to like this game. FTL was one of my all time favorite games, and this seemed to have taken some interesting twists on that idea. Unfortunately it doesn't come together as anything enjoyable. I'm on the final chapter (5 out of 5) simply because of pure stubborness. The first chapter is interesting, but the story alone isn't enough to make the remaining 4 chapters feel any different. I wish I could say I expect this game to improve with updates or expansions, but the repetition is due to core design choices. Fundamental issues - Rogue-like grind without sufficient reward or variety: Each game/chapter will feel 95% the same as the last. - Lack of cohesion: Land missions feel like a random add-on. Encounters aren't engaging. Story doesn't fit well with the game design. Some units just don't seem to have a use. - Inflexible combat: There are basically 2 strategies that I've identified. Difficulty basically consists of just throwing more stuff at you rather than allowing the opportunity for any non-blunt force tactics. - Limited upgrages/customization: You essentially determine what kind of 'run' you are going to do at the battleship/crew selection screen. TL;DR - Play the demo, then play it again and again if you like the game. It's the same experience.
