Omen

I played the demo and enjoyed it was waiting for it to come. Considering most of the time demo is %10-%15 of the game i was hyped. Demo is nearly %50 of this game. They barely added anything to demo and shipped the game. It's not a bad game by any means but not much content or game time. Most of my time was away from pc so i have like 1-2 hours at most in game and that is more than half of the game completed. If you played the demo you are not going to find much more in the base game.

Just as I was getting into the game, it was over. It felt like there were just a couple of missions per contact, instead of way more so all the lore is for naut when it’s over so quick. I thought the base building was going to expand my base a lot more too. Overall, It had about a third of the missions I was expecting so currently it’s a bit disappointing. At full price, I’d hold off for now which is a shame - it just needs fleshing out a bit, as the core concept is sound.

A wonderfully designed world, lots of worldbuilding, a sense of style, lots of words... but the game gets boring very, very quickly. I played maybe 6 missions. Tried different weapons, a different ship, got one weapon that seemed strangely broken for how early it appeared. All of it felt exactly, [i]exactly[/i] the same. Which isn't a terrible thing if it plays well, but it also doesn't; not really. But you know what this game has? Lore! So much of it! There's over 1000 years of history written for you in the Codex. All of this info is available from the start, and pops up when you're loading a mission. But it loads almost instantly, and there's no "press X to continue", so if I wanted to read up on it, I had to do it in-between missions. However, [i]worldbuilding is not writing[/i]. I'd even go as far as to say that worldbuilding is anti-writing; it's an attempt at telling a story without actually telling it, or - more commonly - an excuse not to write. The most appealing worlds are created organically, as a by-product of telling a compelling a story. Which... perhaps the game does have, but all I got so far was just people telling me to go do something. The people weren't co…

Super fun game

Fun moody extraction game! Many interesting mechanics at play and frantic action.

Grinding to get back my stuff after dying has never felt so fun (I am not a dark souls fan, so this is new for me). Short but very fun to play, I will revisit this in the future
