Not the best space game around
Darkstar One is enjoyable, has a good soundtrack, has good graphics, some competent voiceacting and generally gets the job done. However, unfortunately it falls short in almost every other field: 1) weapon customisation almost feels like getting linear upgrades 2) ship upgrades are linear and boring at that, so are the Plasma Cannon upgrades going alongside those 3) every system is, mechanically, the same. You get 300 copy-paste systems, only varying with small aesthetic details, to visit, where 30 well-defined ones would've been much better. 4) the plot isn't especially riveting, and isn't very well structured 5) side missions tend to be very same-y 6) the game doesn't really support any other style of playing than a gun-totting mercenary. Trade is a chore and the game doesn't give you enough info on it to make it worthwhile. So yeah, if you've got no other game to try out, you might want to grab this when its on sale. But generally nothing to write home about, and too much of it to boot. The game's shortcomings could've been forgivable if it was 10 hours long, but its probably at least twice that long.
