Early access review a game that I hesitated much to buy but which I finally do not regret buying. Admittedly graphically this is not Eve online but it costs only 8.99 euros and there is no subscription so there is no complaining. At the moment I can not pronounce on the size of the universe since I do not yet have an engine capable of making me leave the solar system of the beginning, nevertheless there is already a lot to do and to see in this system since there must be a Hannak e of planets (on which one can all be asked to accept missions, to trade, to buy new ships or to improve its gear...) as well as piles of bases in orbits and gigantic vessels (in which one can also get docker).
Regarding the missions it is rather simple since we have missions of bounty hunter, salvage of stolen cargo, destruction of targets... the whole serving only one thing, allow us to degummer hordes of hunters, transporters and capital vessels.
And since we are talking about the ships they are classified into three families: the hunters who are fast and especially very manoeuvrable, with however weaknesses in the shielding and the shield, the transporters which, as their name implies, allow to carry large shipments to the detriment of firepower but which are however fast and resistant and finally, the capital vessels that I have not yet been able to try but which according to all tendenance must be extremely resistant, rather slow and heavily armed. Within these three families there are a lot of different models with different stats (speed, cargo, energy, location of weapons, location of technologies, etc...).
There is also a faction system, your reputation increases with the people you work for (usually merchants and other officials whether military or civilian) and decreases with the people you degummy (usually hackers and other anarchists), simple and logical.
Where the game is the weakest is on the sounds (but the game is still in early access it's going to be better), however nothing serious, it's clear that the soundtrack is not that of star wars and that the sound is not great but they do not harm no n more to the pleasure of the game. Graphically as I said it is not great but it is less terrible than what I thought and especially less annoying than what I feared. There is clearly no Ecstasy in front of the spatial views but it does not make you want to vomit and finally this is the most important. And then it is better a game with content and potential a little weakard graphically than a beautiful game where you get bored.
To conclude, I warmly recommend this game that has a lot of potential...
