Recente recensies door Renesco

Pros:
-It's complex and there's plenty of game machanics in there that have depth to them.
-the graphics are great.
-there's some nifty features with Rising Tide like political capital as a currency and a kind of archeology system involving wrecks.
-it does have that one-more-turn factor of civ games with Rising Tide.

Cons:
-The music is real bland I turned it off within 30 mins.
-The factions have no personality and are a joke, you've got space Brazil who contacts you every turn to tell you HUEHUEHUE (literally) Space Brazil STRONK, then you've got space Merkel who rambles about diversity and then you have space Australia who has this perpetual shocked-and-gay look on his face like you just caught him giving someone a handjob.
-There's a million different units depending on whatever affinity you happen to stumble into, however all these different units have different names so you gotta memorise something like 60 different units all names stuff like Immortal, Golem, Angel etc. that leave you no clue as to what they do. I'd rather I just have something like ''Infantry (affinity name)'' or ''artillery (affinity name)''
-The same for other, non military units, I don't know if what I'm hovering over is a satellite or what the hell it is, only it gives some bonuses to some stuff
-Affinities don't really feel like a choice, you just randomly stumble into them most of the time while doing research or during pop-ups
-the tech web is a mess, it worked in Endless Space, it doesn't work here, again you've like 60 technologies with random technobabble names that you have to memorise, you'd want about 80 hours in the game to get a grip on them all but the game just isn't good enough to hold you for that long most likely.
-When you gain an affinity level or research a technology, there's an Alpha Centauri inspired bit of dialogue, but in beyond earth it's pretentious waffle most of the time. Alpha Centauri wasn't pretentious.
-Again, the leaders and factions are beyond horrible, you remember that guy in Civ 5 called Askia who would stand in front of a burning castle waving a sword about and having a laugh about how he was gonna burn your civilization to the ground? that guy is more of a pal than any of these space-metrosexuals or space-boomers you have to suffer in beyond earth.

It's pretty good, unusual concept and quite addictive. Definitely worth the 3 or 4 bucks it's often on sale for. It's also quite difficult so preparez vous votre anus

Lovely game, extremely well made and some really fantastic historical footage included.

Mediocre mobile port game / shovelware

I should have learned my lesson with Legend of Grimrock 1, I thought that with LoG2 being an open world sequel it would be more of an adventure game, but it's just as tedious a puzzle game as the first but with better graphics and a nicer setting.

Do you want to relive old classics like Eye of the Beholder or Lands of Lore? Well, this game isn't for you. This isn't an adventure game, it's a puzzle game (a really tedious one) with old dungeon crawler aesthetics.

Fun game, quite simple but well made and has multiple endings.

Spend 90% of your time planting evidence and then blackmailing people or your family dies of illness. Wow such gameplay.

Was pleasantly surprised how addictive it is. It has a lot in common with 'This War of Mine' and has some neat game mechanics. It could have been expanded on a bit more though, since it can get repetitive fairly fast late-game. Still, well worth getting it in a sale.

In terms of atmosphere and gameplay it's up there with the greats like bioshock 1 and 2, and half life 2. I haven't a single complaint about this amazing game.
