I buy this game today because it really is worth every cent - and I own it already. But I want to support the programmer AND want to play it anytime, anywhere. First buy was on Matrix itself. The PLUS here is, one click full install. Thank you for this great game! I love it!

It plays like the first one, but with much better Graphics. You can zoom very close, the planets look very realistic, the ships are well dessigned. There is not much to ctitisize right now. What I miss is the queuable stops for ships like explorer ships. There are many Asteroids in the starting System and this way you automate the exploring or stay always waiting for an explorer ship to end its current mission. that is tedious. Hopefully they implement it later on. And there are other finetuning things that should and surely will be adressed. Right now, it is the best game I have played in a very long time. I mean, many other Space Games that I really like are also good in one way or another. But this game, does in my eyes everything really really good. So.. the research feels pretty realsitic, the exploring is awesome, the size of the galaxy is awesome, the proportions (ok, the moons are way too close to the planets). The music is not that good, I prefer my own. The pseudo 3D is kind of a 2D plus rotation, kind of, but I do not care. It is really better than I thought. And the rest plays and feels like DW1. AND! The text is readable - everything is readable. But here also one minus: the font is still in the way that I do not like: in all those spreadsheets, the numbers do not fit in a nice way under another. so 1.111 and 0.000 do not line up. But I am sure, this game will be one of my favorites for years to come. What games I like beside this: Polaris Sector Sword of the Stars 2 Endless Sky Reassembly Space Empires V Starsector Astroxc Imperium Distant Worlds Universe Conquest Frontier Wars Sins of a Solar Empire with the Armada III Mod Endless Space 2 Interstellar Space Genesis free orion master of orion 2 master of orion 3 X2 up to X4 unending galaxy rebel galaxy starcom nexus stars in shadow avorion the jupiter incident and Star Ruler 2 just to name a few. But as said, Distant Worlds 2 feels like the best of all games mentioned so far. Only time will tell if it lacks some stuff I need to keep the immersion perfect.
