Rather fun if you give it a chance
Let's discuss the elephant in the room first: the controls take some getting used to. Initially your movement is extremely limited; you can move forward at various speeds, pitch up and down and turn left/right. You can't strafe, roll (though there is a dodge roll), or move directly up or down, nor can you reverse. This is not Descent or Forsaken, and the first impression isn't great. Stick with it however and you soon get a different ship and acquire new Rites (movesets really) that give you more options. Very early on you get one that allows you to hold RMB to continue going in one direction while you can turn freely, and another to leap at enemy ships. The way that works is you target an enemy, hit a button, and teleport behind them. Again this takes some getting used to but once you do you'll find you don't really miss the regular strafing or vertical movement from the aforementioned older games. Story-wise, it's a tale of guilt and revenge. Maybe not the most original but it works well enough. I've seen some negative comments about the voice acting and don't quite understand them; Nara (the player character) can sound a bit dramatic at times but for someone carrying the burden of guilt of killing an entire planet and its population I think it's understandable. Graphically it's pretty impressive both out in space and in interior locations. I have no idea what kind of budget this game had but considering the price tag I reckon it's punching well above its weight in that regard. Sound and music are fine, neither really stands out whether positively or negatively. All in all it's quite a fun game and I'm glad I stuck with it despite the somewhat underwhelming first impression due to the limited movement early on. It's an arcade space shooter with a moveset that is rather limited at first but quickly turns into something quite unusual but powerful. Give it a try, and if after acquiring some Rites it still doesn't click you can always refund it.
