This is another of those early 2000s shovelware drivers where handling is close to zero regardless of the settings and input device. The races are mostly held at dusk so the lighting is low and directional to mask the mediocre graphics and make steering all the more difficult. No widescreen except for mods, and no race line. Until GOG gets some Need for Speed, at least we have two solid titles in Formula Legends and JDM worth spending money on.
This is a perfect addition to GOG's FPS library. Well done to the GOG team! To me, this is the best addition since The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim surprised us here.
Boy, is this game crap. I bought it on sale and regret playing it late and now it can't be refunded. Sterile visuals, glitchy, poorly explained, and boring. If GOG gives it away, fine, take it, but otherwise don't buy it unless the price goes down to $2 or less. You've been warned.
Entertaining for some hours until the game's crude mechanics, economy, and story finally catch up with it and you realize you could be playing a Far Cry or Elder Scrolls title instead. Not much to look at, either. Only buy on sale.
This game is way over priced, repetitive, gross, dark, and apparently short. The focus feature is useful but that's all I can say that's positive. Don't buy Trepang2 unless it's on deep discount. Better yet, play the demo, as that's the best part, or F.E.A.R. 2 that's vastly more fun and a quarter of the price.
Brutal, spongy, bots. Lame weapons with limited ammo. Tons of long and boring cutscenes. Buy on sale and be prepared to request a refund.
Basically, this is a micromanagement simulator set in outer space. Be prepared to wade through pages of text tutorials and write it all down because game play is rarely intuitive beyond basic ship movement. The number of YouTube tutorials devoted to this title demonstrate its steep learning curve. This is an example of a studio throwing every idea it had into its game without regard for how confusing and time consuming it will be for the player. The graphics are solid, but that's all it has going for it. Voice acting is a joke and much of the story is told through text, more like reading a novel than experiencing it directly within a game. For a far better capital ship combat experience, I suggest Rebel Galaxy or Between the Stars.
