A beautiful but shallow spaceshooter
It's an okay game that looks & sounds amazing, but is gameplay wise pretty shallow. The beginning feels great, the combat is punchy, you find lots of loot and the story is cool with the buddy character. I imagined I could play this forever.. Until I left the first star system and I realized I have already seen everything the game has to offer. The problem of Everspace 2 is A) the simplistic gameplay: every mission is either "kill this enemy", "go to point A and fetch x item" or an annoying puzzle like "find energy sphere and drop it into an empty socket". B) The combat is very repetitive, because the enemy AI is plain stupid and will always just try to swarm you, making them easy predictable targets. Raising the difficulty doesn't help either, as it will only make the enemies into bullet-sponges, but not make them smarter & more challenging - aka it only takes "longer" to kill them. And C) the lacking content: for a looter-shooter, there just isn't enough "loot". You get 9 spaceships, which don't substantially change the combat nor gameplay, a bunch of unlockable blueprints and colors, and 10 weapons (plus a bunch of missiles). All of this you will unlock in the first star system, after that it's just slight stat increases. Once you completed the first star system, you've pretty much seen everything the game has to offer - besides the different environments. Sadly even the environments don't really offer much variety besides different visuals. Yes they look absolutely great, but it's just a different paint of the same: in every location you will find some resources to farm, loot-boxes placed there for your convenience and the same copy-pasted puzzle. Maybe worse of all, the story takes an unexpected turn at the end of the first star system, which left me feel really disconnected to it and thus removed a main motivation to "keep going". So my suggestion is, wait for a sale. It's a well-polished, but sadly also very shallow game.
