What players say
Players are split: some love the hardcore newtonian flight model and call it the best space combat sim since Independence War 2, while others say it is an overpriced tech demo with boring pve grinding and only arena-style gameplay. Most agree it lacks content in early access, and many stress trying the free demo before buying.
