EVERSPACE 2 Review - The Final Verdict
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- Regardless of your taste in games, Everspace 2 will definitely have something to offer you, be it the loot-based progression of an action-RPG, a cool story to follow with interesting characters, fun plot twists, some great action that gives you a variety of different weapon types to play with, and even some peace and quiet as you live out your fantasies of being a space trucker ferrying goods between planets.
Everspace 2 is packed with content, and even once you’re done with its core story, there are several other ways to progress as well, such as end-game “dungeons”, and even a faction system to mess around with.
We need a Freelancer Remaster, that game was amazing. So many hours spent playing it.
yeah freelancer was epic until people worked out client-side hacks. Need freelancer but at a much larger scale with really hard to find jump gates to systems with unique loot nobody else has, be so fun.
Not remastered but remake
How far did the reviewer play into the game, this feels like a first impressions not a review.
All of the footage is from the first area in the game, so, yes.
Most reviewers ONLY show footage from the opening level(s) as to avoid spoilers.
@@frmrfr Dunno what reviewers you watch, but the ones I watch tend to show late game footage as well so they can show you the breadth of the game. They can do that without spoilers, aside from level design spoilers, which literally any footage of the game is going to have.
It’s the final verdict, so no other choice but to check out a different reviewer lol
@@Lasukie like I said, majority of respected reviewers only show early footage. The fact that you are questioning why a reviewer doesn't want to spoil end game footage is bizarre.
Yeah im over 70+ hours in... it also has some GPolice vibes, which is fantastic. Perfect for large stations.
I hear freelancer and i am sold
Same
@@aaronhenley4741 You guys are gonna love it
So if someone says "This game is NOTHING like FREELANCER" you will still get it? wow that is pretty dumb. Just because you heard "Freelancer"
@@XhodanXeus except nobody will say that because it's like freelancer.
@@XhodanXeus You must be fun at parties and have many friends.
Synthwave? Sold!
Didn't have this on my radar before this but very interested now.
Same.
Looks awesome
I tell you what mate, this was a very well put together review! I am a very picky watcher, there's always usually something that annoys me, but I didn't find anything here! Your voice is pleasant, your editing is good, the pacing is good, length of the video isn't longer than it needed to be. Just overall well done!
Not a space sim but I don't mind, love this game, played a lot and got some rift vids.
Reminds me of Privateer, and I loved that game. Can't wait to dive in!
I actually never played privateer but I DID play freelancer and have yearned for a game similar for years. This is it! I've been playing through EA and I can honestly say this game is amazing.
@@UncleMarty that was excellent too. It's hard to nail that sense of being a rogue mercenary. A lot of games have tried. Rebel Galaxy Outlaw was close, hopefully Everspace is similar but with more depth.
@Miraak it's on GOG, steam and Xbox game pass but the final game isn't released till tomorrow buddy :)
Spacebourne2 is much better.
check out rebel galaxy outlaw, its like privateer, also there is spacebourne 2.
I put about 50 hours into Early Access. Amazing game!
I think I'll just buy this rather than Jedi Survivor. Freelancer was so enjoyable, this is the closest to it.
Probably a good choice since Jedi survivor is a very linear game with no replayability. So you will finish it fast and have nothing really to do after. One of the reasons why I didn't buy it. I prefer an open world game with allot of replayability.
I don't think the score matches the gameplay that was shown in this vid. It looks very mundane in my opinion but I'm guessing there's a lot more to this game that wasn't shown here. Would appreciate it if someone who's thoroughly played this game could enlighten me. Haven't played a good space-based game in ages and hoping this will scratch that itch.
I've played about 100 hours of early access ES2, including some of the endgame rifts, and I'm very positive on it. Most of the game is combat and buildcrafting; the exploration, puzzles and trading are all present and reasonably fleshed-out, but the combat is the focus, so I'm pleased to say it's really fun and fluid. The nine ship types, which you can swap between at will once you've bought them, are like classes that each facilitate a different playstyle. My favorite was the striker, which encourages diving into the center of large groups of enemies; meanwhile, the Vanguard allows you to reanimate dead enemies, the Scout asks you to keep your distance and snipe, etc. This wide variety of playstyles is supported by reasonably deep itemization and a control scheme that is just delightful, feeling natural while simultaneously allowing enormous freedom of movement. This keeps space battles from becoming too tedious; locking on is easy and time-to-kill is relatively low with a good build, so the difficulty comes from swarms of enemies of different types that different builds prioritize differently. This video review only shows footage from the first system, and the beauty of the environments -- and the complexity of combat -- definitely ramps up as you explore further out.
My main criticism of the game is that this can all get a bit repetitive; if you're sticking with one build as you level up, then the varied locations and puzzles will stave off boredom for a while, but eventually you'll still get sick of the combat. But if you try out different ships and builds, you'll probably get a kick out of the game and enjoy it for most of the runtime. Additionally, I'd say the writing is just... Serviceable. It's fine, but nothing will surprise you here; it's pretty paint-by-numbers.
That said I definitely recommend the game; I personally have had a ton of fun and I've played through much of the content multiple times and plan to do so again when 1.0 releases later this week
@@MissEvieYTThanks for the detailed insight. Bought it a while ago and haven't played it yet knowing there'd be a save wipe. Excited to play :)
Yeah the gameplay shown here isn't really interesting looking
Is there any word on the performance on Steam Deck? This would be amazing on the go.
They plan full support by this summer I believe and it does work on the deck, it's just not fully optimized yet. At least the demo anyways, I tried it and it does run.
keep eye on Asus Ally which is double the perf of steam deck and Win 11 so everything will work.
i started today playing on steam deck. works great until now❤ love it
Why is the game audio recorded externally and not from the game directly? It's making it sound really bad.
Gives “Chorus” vibes
Sounds like you filmed this on a phone
Awesome 😎😎
I have PC gamepass and just saw the first batch of April games coming and ES2 isn't on there.
Isn't this out on the service April 6?
Yes,it is
Oof. I wish i could combine Everspace 2 with No Mans Sky, Starfield, StarCitizen.
It would make the best game😅
it would be a dream space game for sure!
Its not on ps4 or xbox one any longer, they've kept it to just current gen
Right decision!
Better this than like it was with Cyberpunk 2077
So, is it not an open world where you *can* fly freely from one planet to another (if you so choose)?
Also the characters on the art have guns and get out of their ship but I was playing for a while and your just stuck in a ship fighting forever with some storyline going on
Yes it is open world as you can ignore the story for large parts of the game an go and do different things. I'm 30+ hours in and probably a quarter of the way through the story. Like doing the side quests and there's plenty of those to do. Personally really enjoying this game
I loved Galaxy on Fire 2, glad i can now play everspace 2 on ps5 and get nostalgic again, mostly same devs afterall
I want a freespace 1/2 remaster/remake and a freespace 3, dammit!
How does this compare to Chorus ?
It's a little bit slower and without space magic ;-)
It craps on it.. it's basically Freelancer 2.
Does it have the straif with momentum modifier button that Chorus had?. Hard to tell from the gameplay here.
As someone that's been playing since the first beta: yes. there is a toggle key for turning drift/momentum on and off
Is this game a single player please? I might get this.
Reminds of of Chorus.
Is it still a rogue-like like the 1st game, or more of an RPG ?
Please anyone, I'd need an answer to know if I'll buy it before the end of the Black Friday sales. Thank you
Flak cannons are not the shotgun style weapon
Soundtrack is dope
How long is this game? I'm really confused, most people say it can be completed in 30 hours or so. While others say its taken them 50-100. Can anyone give me a realistic completion time?
Thanks
There is a whole lot of sidecontent. I think 30 - 70 hours is realistic but with 30 hours you are just doing the bare minimum. Believe me: The content is hude
The game is probably quite a bit shorter if you aren't doing the random events that show up every time you travel from one area to another. I'm like around 10-12 hours in on a post 1.0 playthrough and I'm still in the first world map area. I can easily see the game being 10 hours + per map area if you try and do everything. But I'd say cut the time in a third if you skip everything else except for the main story.
Tachyon the Fridge, needs a remake.
Does it work with hotas
Why can't we get Wing Commander: Privateer 3 ?!
7:29 score
Why does the game sound like it was recorded through a microwave from the 90s? The commentary was fine, is that a game issue or channel?
To sum it up - just wait for diablo 4?
Hello Guys, between Elite Dangerous and EverSpace 2, which is better?
it seems the voiceover is an A.I.
mmh, I wonder if you STILL have to hold a button or stick down to keep your ship moving like in Everspace1.
This control scheme made the first game unplayable with a controller. Imagine playing Flight Simulator but you have to hold a button ALL the TIME otherwise your plane falls from the sky.
Good point. I play with kb+m, and yes, you need to push forward to fly forward.
that's aweful, ihmo.
Last time I saw this was in Forsaken. But that basically was a FPS with 3D movement and no special abilities and worked well.
In ES1 when you want to strafe while shooting rockets, while moving, while activating the booster (so nothing special) you need at least 5 buttons at once! Some of them pushing, some holding (like the booster), some always holding!
It's like playing piano and absolutely insane to me someone designed that scheme and thought it to be a good idea.
Decimate use to mean 10%😢
Cross platform?
How can you make a review? Isn’t it still in EA??
It's full version now. Came out on the 5th I think
@@leftyg4587 yeah by the time this video was released it was still in EA. That’s why I was confused.
On the evening it was out of EA.
@@Todestelzer yea true, I'm not to sure myself now if this is the full game review or the EA review.. can't find many vids about it. Mite gamepass it for pc, was to afraid to play dude to wipe saves in ea
Sony and/or Microsoft need to come out with a game to compete with the likes of Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous (Odyssey) which are both PC exclusives. No Starfield is not it. It's a SP game. I want to be able to pirate an unsuspecting miner/trader player and give them the opportunity to either dumb their cargo or become one with the vacuum.
i hope starfield has half the things this game has, in its ship combat section
Shame nobody cares what you think.
YPA! Z!
Why would you trust Bethesda after Fallout 76
EverSpace 2 ps5 release date?
Coming to lastest-gen consoles this summer! /Michael
Completely new to the genre, so how does this compare to chorus?
It's a little bit slower and without space magic ;-)
its not linear and scripted you have open world exploration and its an rpg and its slower.
Since you are new here are games for you to check out
MOST SIMILAR to chorus
space interceptor project freedom, arc savior, subdivision dx, freelancer darkstar one, underspace, stellar wanderer spacebourne 1 and 2
less similar wing commander especially 3 and 4, starpoint gemini 3. Absolute terrirory , freespace 1 and 2.
Rebel galaxy outlaw, this is based on privateer so the difficulty of the missions can be randomized and people hated that part of the game. tachyon the fringe.
not similar tachyon the fringe, parkan, starshatter, helium rain, x4 (economics based) Between the Stars, rebel galaxy starpoint gemini 2 (dont play 1, you can play it as dlc on starpoint gemini 2), starpoint gemini warlords (capital ships) independance day and 2 (large ships) void destroyer 1 and 2 (real time strategy mechanics)
not 3d
deathwar 3030, starcom nexus and unkown space. void warfare star valor
rogue like
space rogue, everspace 1. FTL, space rogue
genre mix Stellar Tactics, lost empire, starfield, parkan, avorion, Executive assault 2,Battlecruiser Generations.
rts homeworld series and its clones.
Looks like piloting a drone :/
All I want is a new Wing Commander game (a proper Wing Commander 6, with Mark Hamill and Tom Wilson)
Too bad there is no multiplayer.
It’s official: Gaming is not dead
Reviewer a little too obsessed with accuracy to science.
8 mn video and you manage to reuse several clips two times. Congrats for such laziness
tanx 4 the rev
Looks a little too cartoony for my liking. Too many bright colours, silly explosions, etc
the graphics do look pretty weak. Especially for the price of the game.
Final verdict for what. Wasn't the release 2 years ago?
EA was released about 2 years ago. 1.0 Will be relased in 2 days.
Soundtrack is garbo and is def the lowest point of this game.
I really doesnt look like a step up from the first game - absolute carbon copy
Spacebourne2 is far superior. Much better at less cost.
Have you played both?
