Keep it up mate! Great review and quality production. Game looks good, reminds me of Freelancer from 2003. Definitely one I'll keep an eye out for, been a while since I played a space shooter.
Thank you Dave, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch, and provide feedback. I do work very hard to go in depth on my reviews to put myself in the seat of the consumer on kind of what would effort should be put into a review to be thorough. I am sure I will leave stuff out here and there as I continue to get better, but you can always expect me to put in the work and be honest. Thank you again!
@@nickcallahan1003 I dont think X or STSquadrons are the right comparison for these games. . This third person focused was starfox > freelancer > chorus > everspace etc
@@christanner8765 I am starting mine this week so I can do a review before JS. I am hoping to get an early code to review JS as well but fingers crossed. If not I will knock out a late one.
Chorus is excellent, but it's even more of an arcade shooter than Everspace 2 and has very little choices in outfitting your ship. It's a great time though!
I use the ps4 tflight hotas on my pc and it works great. First game didnt support hotas at first and some controls felt off to get right. But Everspace 2 was built with it in mind and i appreciate it.
I started playing this game and love it to some extend. There are some things that can be have done better, but hey, I don't wanna be picky, especially with the lackluster of good games around (Not talking about AC6, BG3, FF16 etc). Anyhow, the game is fun. What I missed a lot in a game,is the number of the puzzles, even small or big, this game does a fantastic job at those. The ship building is not like in Starfield, but they look amazing. The space fights, I would not recommend going easy or super easy, they can be very short, even if the enemy is 1 or 2 levels above. I started with on normal, with the default ship, and got myself the vindicator (basically it is a 5 drone carrier), and tried all of them, the heavy "boys" are real power houses. The world design is made simplistic, but fascinating in the same time. The small cutscenes here and there, even if they are cartoonish, I liked them. The game starts slow, but at some point is going to be a dozy. The game overall, I would give it a 7.5/10. Why? Will do my best not to spoiler: until a certain point, the travelling can be tedious, but enjoyable. Crafting, can be overwhelming if you are not the kind of gamer that likes to grind for resources. Buying the ship is a worth, but again, the grind can be real. As another content creator mentioned in his video, it does have elements of a looter shooter. Other than that, I really wish for this game to have a constant update. Final note: I am not at the end, but there is a nice system with some portals, did not understood the benefit of doing them.
More details after seeing the vid: I have a 1070OC and I had no problems with the graphics. I had some crashes, but my CPU is quite old and could not keep up :)).
I'd be kickin myself playin this flatscreen. Best way to experience this one is UEVR hands down. If yyou havent got a headset do yourself a favour and get one. This game rocks VR
Joysticks: It is awesome. I've tried the gamepad and the mouse and keyboard but it just felt off.I have 4 separate controllers. Dual joysticks, rudder and a DIY control panel that has analog axis controls. The setup allows me to take full advantage of the game's 6DOF. The game is arcade-y (which I am totally fine with), but it can be configured well enough for space and flight sim enthusiasts.
Honestly after playing chorus on PS5 the combat in ever-space 2 looks so boring and bland in comparison to chorus , but the exploration seems to be better in ever-space 2, not sure I’m going to like the combat as chorus combat and movement was so good, if anyone played chorus and ever-space 2 please share ur feedback between both games combat gameplay and system
@@DetectiveSeeds yea man the combat in chorus is kinda sweet really tight controls with roll/spin maneuvers , fast action high octane type of combat with sharp quick turns and you get this ability thats kind of similar to break boosting I mean the controls just feels so nice when ur in combat , I swear I feel like I’m a top gun pilot 😂 after playing that and now looking at ever space 2 combat it’s like night and day difference, ever space 2 seems so nonchalant in combat in comparison even boring if I’m being brutally honest
@@RicardoDavidson Actually everspace 2 has more combat mechanics and more movement options. Also everspace 2 combat need some strategy unlike chorus so i enjoy it more. but this video didn't showcase it properly. There is a option called Toggle inertia dampeners if you turn if off the movement will feel much better and faster than this video. I have played both chorus and everspace 2 for me everspace 2 comabat is better. I think it is subjective. You should atleast give eve2 a chance i believe you will like it
Correction: The universe is NOT procedurally created, that was the first game. Correction: Each class of ship have multiple slots for primary/secondary loadouts. Some ships (Like the Striker) has three primary, others (Like the Bomber) have only two Primary but three Secondary. Also, as a tip? Leave a second after your finished before going to the next section, the review felt very 'mashed' together, without any section breaks, despite you calling those out.

Thank you sir, I appreciate you taking the time to watch and for your kind words. Game is excellent, and worth diving into for sure!
Thanks for the review☺️☺️
Love atmospheric, arcade, space shooters and will be playing a ton of Everspace 2 through PC gamepass.
Can't wait.😁
Thank you Ben! I highly recommend checking this game out for sure. Thank you for watching and commenting!
This review is so much better and more in depth than any of the reviews from the large outlets such as IGN. You have sold me on this game.

SACRELIGE!!
You went from StarFox to Starwars Squadrons to Everspace without mentioning FreeLancer
To be honest, I never played Freelancer lol. That came out I believe during military and wasn’t able to get to that one.
Detective I’d highly recommend playing Freelancer. Unbelievably good.
And the x games x4 is huge !!
@@nickcallahan1003 I dont think X or STSquadrons are the right comparison for these games. . This third person focused was starfox > freelancer > chorus > everspace etc
Dude I agree I think that’s why I love this game so much. It reminds me of star fox one of my favorites of all time. Good review bro.😊
Loved star fox bro just an awesome time playing it back then. Thanks for checking out my review man!
Thanks for your detailed review. 👍
Thank you Shadow for taking the time to watch and comment! Greatly appreciate it!
Excellent as always mate. Btw, loving my fallen order replay at the moment!
Nice it’s an excellent playthrough
@@DetectiveSeeds It is indeed! How’s yours going mate?
@@christanner8765 I am starting mine this week so I can do a review before JS. I am hoping to get an early code to review JS as well but fingers crossed. If not I will knock out a late one.
@@DetectiveSeeds I look forward to that one mate!
Not procedurally generated, the world is handcrafted. Only the random encounter are procedural.
This looks promising. Have you tried a game called Chorus? It's a must try for space dogfights enthusiasts.
I’ve actually not heard of that one. I’ll have to look into it, thank you for recommending!
Chorus is excellent, but it's even more of an arcade shooter than Everspace 2 and has very little choices in outfitting your ship. It's a great time though!
love this game but if these graphics are added to say like, Spacebourne2, then the competition heats up
I agree. They did a fantastic job here and it’s what I wanted from a space game. I think this game will do really well later this summer on consoles
I use the ps4 tflight hotas on my pc and it works great. First game didnt support hotas at first and some controls felt off to get right. But Everspace 2 was built with it in mind and i appreciate it.
Yeah they did a really nice job here with this game, and responded well during early access
Wow this is a great review! Subbed!
Thank you very much, I greatly appreciate that!

Very nice. Skipped the first one because I'm not into rogue likes. This one I can't put down. Gamepass comes through again.
Awesome glad you’re liking it!

Great review! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for taking the time to watch, and comment!
@@DetectiveSeeds it was my pleasure 🤝
Great review ❤.
Amazing and informative review
Thank you very much! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
Would have like to have seen mutiplay!😊
Yeah I can’t disagree there. Would have been cool to seamlessly interact with others
@@DetectiveSeeds Yeah man. They give you all this open space and you can't play with or against anyone. Missed opportunity in my humble opinion. 😪
How do you like the gamepad controls?
Gamepad controls work very well, no input delay, and are integrated extremely well!
@@DetectiveSeeds Yeah, I played it for an hour or so, seems really good!

I need to checkout Chorus. i have heard about it, but not played it yet.
@@DetectiveSeeds yea man the combat in chorus is kinda sweet really tight controls with roll/spin maneuvers , fast action high octane type of combat with sharp quick turns and you get this ability thats kind of similar to break boosting I mean the controls just feels so nice when ur in combat , I swear I feel like I’m a top gun pilot 😂 after playing that and now looking at ever space 2 combat it’s like night and day difference, ever space 2 seems so nonchalant in combat in comparison even boring if I’m being brutally honest

But can you crash? Hate space games that don't correctly simulate collisions.
You do not actually crash and wreck. You’ll basically run into something and crash/ bounce off of it
Correction: The universe is NOT procedurally created, that was the first game. Correction: Each class of ship have multiple slots for primary/secondary loadouts. Some ships (Like the Striker) has three primary, others (Like the Bomber) have only two Primary but three Secondary.

Okay thank you very much for that feedback, I greatly appreciate it!
It doesn’t have VR. I’ll stick to No Mans Sky
It does not support that yet. That would be really cool though for this game!
