A-Great: A grades are given to high-quality games. These games are enriching experiences worth tons of praise. Their strengths far outnumber their flaws.
A few important notes:
-While playing, I didn't realize ship cosmetics changed the name of the ship. It's kind of weird because ship names would also change after I left menus. I'm not sure exactly why or if it's an obscure bug. Regardless, in the video, I say I fly a Mercury D2 but the vid shows Mercury B2. That's because one of the cosmetics I changed apparently changed the name of the ship. But that ship is still the same ship, just with different wings.
-I mispronounce 'gameplay' at one point. I didn't catch this until I was editing, but I don't think it warrants rerecording.
-Lastly, there are six playable star systems in Everspace 2. There is a seventh system but it is not currently accessible.
How We Grade Reviews (Updated 6/21/23)
About Our Grades:
We feel the best way to grade a game is with letter grades (defined below). While the most important part of a review resides in the actual text/video, the final grade is a summarization that puts a bow on the entire discussion. Grades provide a single, digestible summary that’s useful for those who may not have time to watch an entire review or may not want to watch gameplay footage at all.
Our Grades:
S-Legendary: S grades are reserved for the very best games ever made. These games are legends of the medium. They have few flaws, are excellent in multiple areas and represent the very best of what gaming has to offer.
A-Great: A grades are given to high-quality games. These games are enriching experiences worth tons of praise. Their strengths far outnumber their flaws.
B-Good: B grades are given to games that are decent all-around. These games are above average in many areas but have occasional flaws that diminish their overall experience. While not legendary status, these games are without question still quality titles.
C-Average: C grades are the middle ground. These games are playable and generally fun and/or adequately made. While they may not excel in any one area, they don't completely fail anywhere either.
D-Below Average: D grades are given to games that feel substandard and/or underwhelming, though some may still find them playable or enjoyable.
E-Bad: Games with an E grade do not have enough upside to be described as playable. These games are bad. If they have a strength, it’s quickly countered by numerous weaknesses.
F-Broken: An F grade is reserved for games that are broken and/or unplayable. These games have few strengths, if any, and are crippled by numerous bugs, design flaws, and other weaknesses.

Wow, this was such an amazing review! Thank you so much! It's so rare to see a review that goes so much in-depth with the gameplay and also put great emphasis on the non-combat gameplay elements! Keep up your excellent work!
Tyler... As always you deserve a bigger crowd for your videos.
High Quality well made review - viewers will come you‘re doing amazing work!
Such a well-written review. Big emphasis on well-written. Excellent word and phrase selection that added a ton of clarity. Nice job!
Dude, you just earned the hell out of my subscription. That was one of the most comprehensive review I've ever heard. Great work!
I have over 60h in Ceto only and still enjoyed your review. Spot on.
I hope to get more unique sounds, music, random space dialog and ways to interacts with NPCs in the future
Late to the party but I like your style of review. You told me everything I wanted to know.
Awesome breakdown! I was thinking about starting this game while waiting for Starfield and I am now convinced to jump in.
I’m thinking the same thing while waiting for star field lol, it also just came out on gamepass
Fantastic review
Great review!
Great review
Very good review.
Nice review. I downloaded this off game pass. I’m going to try it out now
The graphics are nice, plus you can choose between a lot of ships and weapons. But don't expect a 'Freelancer' game, there is not much story here. Plus it's not very easy to play. Luckily, you can choose between difficulty levels too 😅
Edit: I give this review an 8, excellent work but minus 1 point for not demonstrating 1st person mode and minus 1 more for not even mentioning it!
I don't know...there are many ships, but cockpits are always the same. Plus, it's very difficult to move around in narrow places (happens often in this game) if you can not see what's under your ship's nose.
@@andreasmartin7942 I mostly agree although there is definitely cockpit variance and paint choice affects the look of your dashboard too. And personally, I feel super immersed from practicing in 1st person and now I can manoeuvre through the tightest asteroid tunnels and throughout space stations and all their smallest areas without collision. But I can occasionally lose track of exactly where I am so I’ll hold still and pivot the ship until I get my spatial awareness back and on rare occasions when I don’t have time to reorient because I’m being pursued then I’ll jump to 3rd person if I absolutely have to.
1st person makes me feel like a skilful badass🤓
