"im gonna make a game with over 100 star systems and theyre all going to have interesting handcrafted content" except he actually did it. incredible work wiz. a truly ensouled gaming experience

Don't do this often but this game is a decent successor to Freelancer. Much more depth and far more involved with things that can be done etc. Great game for the fighter, trader and space type pplz out there :D

[h1] A space Ship shooter with the feel of cowboy bebop what could be better. Also is a good game for average computers my pc is not that great and it runs like a charm. [/h1]

Underspace is a Freelancer-Like in all the correct ways, with a lovecraftian layer. Pros: - Sunning at times with its composition, the graphics are classic in style but modern in rendering. - Faithfull reimagining of a freelancer-like world with a great mix of lovecraftian elements. - Enormous support for modding! - Solid dedicated server hosting. - Responsive solo developer - Cats! - Runs brilliantly! - Flight is Simple to learn, hard to master - Commerce, combat, exploration all represented as activities in this universe Cons: - NPC and Player Character models, while unique, could be better and have more options. They stick out in places and feel placeholder or static/lifeless. This can always be improved. - Sharp learning curve especially for those not familiar with this game type of yore. - The only con in my eyes are the NPC and player models. - Lighting in some scenes is, awkward, clashing with the environment. Needs refinement. ** Single player has a long interesting story that really fills in the lore of this unique universe. (Though it does need some solid voice acting to help with more modern tastes) ** Multiplayer is a great open sandbox universe where you make your own stories. If you are a fan of Discovery-Freelancer, Freelancer or Everspace 1-2, I fully recommend this title.

I remember the joy of playing freespace and the frustration when my game CD got irrevocably damaged. Suddenly the game wasn't available anymore. When I saw this spiritual successor, I was skeptical but decided to give it a chance and so far I have not been disappointed. It's simplicity in graphics belies the complexity of its story and I am already well immersed in following the campaign.

I really wanted to enjoy Underspace, being a fan of both complex space sims and lovecraftian horror, but I just can't get through the technical issues. It's too rough around the edges for me to justify putting money in it. Voiceover which is missing (probably was removed due to being AI but I am not sure) that made me spend 20 minutes trying to figure out if my game is broken, menu options which don't work, a horribly loud and badly looped engine sound driving me insane (which I can mute to have no engine sound at all which is also sub optimal), on top of other stuff like horrible UI (the layout is not bad but the icons, fonts, sizes just reek of amateur work). Usualy I can hand wave such issues if the game itself is good enough but Underspace just threw me off completely. I believe there is a great game in here but for me - I'll wait for 1.0 or something, hoping it will drasticaly improve. Back to Starsector I guess...

Feels like a glimpse at what a AAA space game could have been. Fixes many of the major issues with freelancer (not the least of which being it is 1000 years old and temperamental to get running). I've played around 10 hours so far (which is usually about as far as I get in games) and it has been constantly throwing interesting and unexpected stuff at me. One caveat being that it is a bit buggy, I've had to reload from saves a few times because main quest stuff didn't proc (but it is early access so I'll give it a bit of leeway but it still needs a lot of debugging work). Overall a fun universe to spend some time in, I might even spend more time in it...

At first this feels like a mod or DLC for Freelancer and I mean that in a very positive way; being a big fan of the original Freelancer, I immediately got addicted to it; it mostly feels the same and looks alike, but way bigger & better. Already got 46 hours in on my first week of playing and still going strong at a 160h+ now. That should tell you enough :) Graphic-wise it's close to Freelancer with the HD mod and increased/modern polygon count for 3D models. The different space systems are very diverse and always have stuff to explore/investigate/harvest; with tons of worm holes and additional gameplay elements (races, fights, secrets, puzzles, bosses) too. In contradiction to Freelancer you'll be hardpressed to find a system without some special feature(s); this means lots of mid- and late-game content and always rewarding exploration ! Gameplay-wise [strike]I'm still only in Campaign 2, but the extended base/planet options, gear and ship upgrades are much appreciated; it is not as limited as Freelancer is. And the story thusfar is interesting too. [/strike] I've spent 160+ hours by now, obviously finished the campaign and I'm still finding new systems and haven't done half of the (marked) side-quests yet, it really became it's own universe and game, not merely a Freelancer 'clone' anymore. Another thing that stands out: proper mod support, including very useful mods already, like extra ships or faster warp-speeds, great stuff for veterans of the game and/or genre ! On the down-side, since it is still only a beta and still in development: No voice acting for the text-dialogues yet and some gameplay bugs; but that is as expected and thus I won't reflect that in my score. The amount of content and the quality for a single-dev game is just astonishing imho; and like one of the YT reviewers said, 'please give it a try, you won't be disappointed'; I totally agree, it's a worthy Freelancer 2.0 !

Всім любителям Freelancer рекомендується. З впізнаваними геймплейними особливостями тут зверху добавлено все чого там не хватало, починаючи з розумного автоперельоту, і до великої кількості додаткових квестів. Лімінальні простори заворожують, влітаючи в аномальний шторм так і відчувається що зараз тебе вдарить гігантське щупальце монстра. Трохи складно з FPS на деяких планетах, особливо коли інколи гра намертво зависає на першій планеті Vauldric. Але це ще рання альфа так що все це ще поремонтується. Задоволення просто літати досліджуючи цю одночасно моторошну і прекрасну галактику
