SpaceBourne 2

Great game, and devs really do listen to feedback and fix bugs.

SpaceBourne 2 honestly impressed me. It’s crazy that a game this big and detailed was made almost entirely by one person. The galaxy feels huge, there’s always something to do, and the game really lets you play the way you want—whether that’s exploring, fighting, trading, or running your own faction. Sure, some parts could use a bit more polish, but the dev keeps updating it and it gets better every time. If you like open-world space RPGs, this one is definitely worth checking out. I’ve been really enjoying it.

It is for sure worth your buying! While the individual parts may not be up to AAA game standards, they come together in a synergistic way. The result is a game that will pull you into the fantasy of the space empire so hard you'll forget about its weaknesses as you enjoy its strengths. This game does many things better than the big budget games. The guild system gives you a variety of missions with different stakes, and total freedom to switch between them. The Faction system's missions (mail) are attached to some really meaningful stakes. The exploration probes minigame is a cool way to tackle exploration and, in some ways, it is more engaging than the AAA games equivalent, since it involves gameplay and skill, rather than just looking at a progress bar and go somewhere to cash in. The game nudges you along a storyline, but you can go at your own place or refuse to participate at all. I've just dabbled in the Conquest and Faction building games. So far, it is very interesting. The addition of your very own wingmen and ground combat squad helps a lot during all kinds of missions. You can also assign some of your NPC's to take on some faction missions for you, which gives you the freedom to do guild missions and other stuff. I like X, Elite Dangerous, Star citizen, and I have pretty much every space game of note be it 2D or 3D. While some of them do some aspects very well, Spacebourne is the only one where you find all that stuff together.

Eigentlich gar nicht schlecht, hat aber viel zu viele Bugs. Seit Version 2.0.1 stürzt das Spiel schon nach 5 Min. ab.

Trés bon jeu indé

All reviews of art like this are inherently subjective. If you loved The Last of Us, you might not like this game. If you absolutely had a blast playing Witcher 3 or Mount & Blade, you might not like this game. Personally, I like "eurojank" or just jank in general. Often these games are not particularly robustly made. E.Y.E Divine Cybermancy is a mess even after updates and patches, but the intricate systems it employs are unique. It is truly some sort of immersive sim, but no one knows how it works. You may ask why this is relevant, but I already have you in a headlock and am about to dunk your head into SpaceBourne 2: No one knew there was a 1. This is absolutely jank, like Star Citizen on a 50 euro budget (instead of its meager 800 million USD) or Elite Dangerous with support wheels and proper ground combat. The game is mostly UE5 asset store barf visually, but the ships actually look kinda cool, and the graphics are generally alright. HOWEVER, THE GAMEPLAY is cool as heck. Dude there's is a huge faction system, building your own little empire, and invading other factions' solar systems and wreaking havoc. You build little stations and factories and strongholds in your own systems, set up trade routes, and take on contracts in ground/air combat missions, or just fly around, scanning systems and exploring planets. It combines a lot of the best of Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous, and becomes incredibly addictive to outfit your ships and build up your own army. Many of these systems can still use improvement, but the devs are consistently and fairly often updating the game. I've only put about fifty hours in, but I still get giddy when I blast into a new system and put it under my banner. The story is a little meh, and the cinematic scenes are very much of the expected quality for a game like this, but it is really fun. If you played E.Y.E, or STALKER 2/Cyberpunk 2077 on launch so that you can see past jank and cheap visuals to have a good time, I'd recommend this. Ground combat AI is not anywhere as good as the space combat AI, but give it a go. Drop a triple A title this year to give yourself some weird, janky gems like this one.

Bugs galore, voice acting is all done courtesy of the cheapest AI voice generation imaginable, graphics are circa 2001 era, story is a mile wide and an inch deep.
