“[h1]EVERSPACE 2[/h1] I had this game for a while and decided to wait it out until all additional content got released then got busy on other titles like usual! Years ago, I had participated in ES1 KickStarter campaign…”
“Amazing game, love it for so many reasons! If you like Diablo (Torchlight, PoE...) and space themed games, or if you loved Freelancer back in the day and wish there was a modern sequel, this is pretty much a must have.…”
“Space games usually don't have very deep combat mechanics due to the nature of space itself: Big and empty. Even some popular games have combat no more complex than who has bigger guns and can spin in faster circles.…”

“The developers cannot handle criticism and feel the need to lecture you for not liking the game enough. The dogfighting in this game is fun but that's about it. You spend hours just traveling in space. Not exploring,…”
“In the way that the shooting feels great in Destiny, dog fighting in Everspace 2 also feels incredible. Shots have bullet magnetism which removes the frustration of similar games. The upgrades and loot are also…”

“It looks like a good game it really does but the use of GD every few minutes is grating on my nerves since I'm a Christian. Since there is no profanity filter i had to request a refund.”
“Very enjoyable space game, and aracade shooter. The scenery is pretty, the characters a fun and the space combat is smooth. Some exploration puzzles are too much "find hidden thing" rather than logic, and I end up…”

“Outstanding combat-focused 6DOF Spaceship Action-RPG with light Space Sim trappings. Don't go into this expecting Elite or Star Citizen, it more closely resembles a cross of Freelancer, Decent and Diablo. Good meaty…”
“What a great game. Plenty of exploration with random events thrown in which level with you. Not completed it yet but enjoyable storyline so far. Lots of customisation of your ship with the various weapon and defence…”

“The "puzzles" in this game are just you flying around an environment blindly without a map of the local area to find like 2-3 interact-able objects for like 20 minutes and it's a huge time waster. Also some of the items…”
“there are some things i would change including the story... but for the action, sound and look, cant beat it.”

“I was all set to give a positive review until I came across some extremely aggravating gameplay. I'm not one of those masochists that likes the impossibly hard gameplay. I find it frustrating and aggravating and not fun…”
“I'm a few hours in now and unfortunately the gameplay loop already became very annoying. You spend a big chunk of your time traveling between jump points, would say at least 30%, the enemies seem to be the same 5 ship…”
“The gameplay itself is somewhat good, its an arcade-y light-rpg space combat sim, and when I say light, I mean it- 3 classes of ship, each class gets 2 preset perk outfits, 5 rarity levels and like idk 10 different…”

“[h1] Boring grinding [/h1] I was very positive about this game at the beginning, but after ~50th fight i started to hate this game. It gives you fun for first 5-10 fights and upgrades. But boy oh boy, be ready to go…”

“Navigation and searching for mission objectives is annoying. Prepare to get lost in space for hours trying figure out the location of items, missions, and clues. I wanted to love it, but after 3 youtube tutorials, I'm…”
“Well it's been sitting in my libary for a long time. The first encounter was brief and another game stole it's spotlight for my time and attention. However as most newly developed games fall short in so many ways due to…”

“Game is beautiful, combat is satisfying, ships are easy to maneuver with K+M (just like the previous release). Then it's outstanding, isn't it? Hell no, son! It's an ok game, and I know I don't need to play more to…”

“Pretty environments and a decent story, it can get pretty repetitive though. A lot of time will be spent jumping between systems and locations which is just an interactive loading screen, and most of the puzzles are just "fly around untill you find what you need under some…”
— a player, Steam review · 30 hrs played“If you've been wanting to play a game like Freelancer, this is a great modern take on the same formula. Not only that, you can play the first few hours of the game with the demo, and if you decide to play the main game the save you have from the demo will carry over and you can…”
— a player, Steam review · 60 hrs played“Starts out really strong but gets tedious. I'd say play the demo and if you think you can repeat that gameplay loop for 30+ hrs then buy it. It has a few surprises and looks really nice especially the planetside levels, but then just stacks on piles of repetitive low-paying…”
