Pros: I'm most a story guy when it came to this kind of games, and Cradle of Humanity deliver an awesome questline that is incredibly tied toguether. It finally give that feel of doing something important and shape the galaxy, insted of just getting look at the map endlessly. And yes! CHOICES really big CHOICES with REAL CHARACTERS, and EVEN A COMPANION (temporally tough) with his OWN story, personality and background! Thats what i'm talking about! DO MORE OF THAT! Neutral: this DLC seen to be made especifically with the story in mind, not so much about the RTS aspectsof the game (that i almost forgot at some point, even some of the rewards seen to be pushing you towards this direction, this part is great and all, but they could have worked a little more in some other areas altough i didn't manage to see the terraformation mechanic yet, hence why this critique is "neutral". Cons: I seem to be earning less money... i constatly see myself hunting cristals now, when in previous playthroughs i just do that at the beginning of the game and then i forget about. Some of the rewards for complete the main questlines seens repetitive. Yes, it is good, BUT still repetitive. Egosoft guys? Be a little more creative next time, TWO of the same? but with different functions and you didn't decide to make ONLY the functions of those ships available? Be more creative, next time, add functions, not "unique" garbage that could be blow up easily
A spiritual successor of Freelancer. I didn't buy on GOG, but i have a good experience with this game. Pros. *Best soundtraks in all games a ever played. change to station to the station and you will find one to suit your taste, i personaly like the dark country station "The Stinger" *Combat is very arcade, it's easily especially for those just wan't to jump for the action, its simple and you won't struggle to much with controls once you get the hang of it. The storyline in the game is good, not the best of all, but good enough to keep you playing to see the ending, also, the story isn't very linear, so you won't be forced to follow the story if you don't want too, much like an open world game, you can travel the galaxy map whatever you want without engage on the storyline. *Is one of the most stylized space shooter games, remind a lot 90's space shooter games. *Juno Markev is a very relatable character and you will like her for sure. along some other memorable ones like Ruth. *Theres a ship painting tool that you can use to paint your ship WHATEVER way you like it! If you are a streamer you going to love this feature. Cons The IA is relentless in higher levels to the point of getting anoying, watch out for ambushes. The game is too extensive at some point it gets repetitive. Theres just a small handfull of ships and just some few variations. Theres not enough variety of objectives and rewards to keep you invested in the game, in the long run, so at some point the only reward you will actually have is the story. Overall the game is good enough for casual players, it isn't elite dangerous, Star Citzen or X4, but it's a good space shooter that will keep you hooked for days having a lot of fun.
