Void War

Very good FTL rouge like, had it on the wish list waitng for a sale, but GW wants to be a monopoly and so I decided that money spent against them is practically a sale.

this game understands warhammer better than gw does

Еб*ть в сраку Ноттингемских п*дорасов! Об игре - всем, кому нравится FTL, настоятельно рекомендую Были расширены механики FTL, а также все это происходит в сеттинге неВахи

Its FTL but "not Warhammer". Edit: While there is certainly potential, I do think that there is a lot of issues with the game. The main one being despite how many tools you have to throw at the enemy, too many enemies have immunity to them. They can be immune to: Fire, poison, suffocating, stunning, gain immunity from ALL status effects. You can have enemies block damage to specific systems, and have ships which automatically repair damage. This can all happen at the same time. Honestly I like the setting, and I like the ideas in the game but it feels like the game forces you into a specific playstyle rather than encouraging you to experiment. Which kinda sucks. While its possible to make non standard builds work, getting them running is reliant on RNG. If this was less of a factor then I would mind the issues of the game a lot less. Maybe having a specific kind of shop which has access to all modules to buy from. That would make the game feel a lot less like RNG. Hell make it an expensive shop, double the price of regular shops, but if you wanna try a specific build you could sacrifice for it. Or maybe having shrines also affect which kinds of modules show up in shops, or the ability to reroll available modules once per shop. Something. TLDR: Cool vibes, but RNG forces specific meta which is not very fun

great game, screw scams workshop

It's a decent game and fun to play if you like FTL, but way too easy. I'm going to assume anyone here reading this has already played FTL. If you haven't, play that first. It pre-dates this and is a better game. That said, this does have some good additions over FTL and if development continues it could be better. The crew are way more diverse and open up much more tactical options through spells and equipment. Where it falls short is that the additions make the game too easy. I've yet to lose a run and I always take on the mid-game boss. (which is harder than the final boss). Also there's only 6 sectors compared to the 8 in FTL so it feels a bit short. Otherwise interface and playstyle are exactly the same as FTL. Oddly I've seen a lot of people say that boarding ships is a viable tactic in this compared to FTL. I disagree there. It's and overly viable tactic here and you can just spam the enemy ship with summoned units to win most battles. The main reason I disagree though is that winning battle by boarding in FTL gives you more resources for the win and is essential there too.

Ich spiele Void War immer wieder zwischendurch und habe nach mittlerweile rund 50 Stunden noch lange nicht alles gesehen. Das Spiel ist stark von FTL: Faster Than Light inspiriert, kombiniert das aber mit einem düsteren Warhammer-40k-artigen Stil, der wirklich gut funktioniert. Die Grafik ist definitiv Geschmackssache – klassische Pixeloptik – aber mit etwas Fantasie entstehen dabei richtig spannende und atmosphärische Kämpfe im Kopf. Gerade das macht für mich einen großen Teil des Charmes aus. Besonders positiv finde ich, dass die Entwickler regelmäßig Updates mit neuem Content veröffentlichen. Dadurch fühlt sich das Spiel ständig frisch an. Jeder Run läuft anders ab: Commander, Schiff, Ausrüstung und Crew sorgen dafür, dass man sich immer wieder neu anpassen muss. Das Spiel kann trotz niedrigerer Schwierigkeitsgrade ziemlich fordernd sein, weil schnell Chaos entsteht und man bei den vielen gleichzeitigen Aktionen leicht den Überblick verliert. Trotzdem motiviert es mich immer wieder einen neuen Run zu starten. Für etwa 15 € im Sale ist das Spiel meiner Meinung nach absolut empfeenswert.

Void War has the same problem FTL has where there's one consistent way to win against the final boss and if you didn't build for that over the course of your run you can get f*cked. Why even let the player experiment with different ways of tackling ships if ultimately all of them except the 'correct' build lose at the end?

Me gusta más que FLT, creo que es más dinámico y lo mezcla con el universo de warhammer 40k. 10/10
