Boildown Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Anyone else thinking of getting this? I'm probably gunna buy it this weekend if there's nothing majorly negative in early reviews of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRIZZ Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I like the TV view after a battle. I wish more games did that. I often feel i'm so separated from action in RTS games that I wish i paid more attention to the front lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riley Egret Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I am quite interested, I do agree on the opinion that's it's 10ish bucks too high. How is the skirmish mode? it's always been a weak point in Slitherine games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimaera Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I'll wait for a sale or additional content update. From what I've seen so far the only reason it seems to appeal to people is that it's the first time a BSG game hasn't sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boildown Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Been playing this. I really like the battle replays at the end of each battle, it shows every thing that happened during the turn based sequence in one smooth movie, in the style of the re-imagined BSG (shaky cam, pans and zooms), set to music that is a good take on Bear McCreary's original work. It wouldn't surprise me if Bear actually scored it as a quicky project without going to an orchestra, but if not, whoever did it was very faithful to the style. My complaints so far are limited to upgrades that don't feel like upgrades when they cost extra fuel (Tylium) every time you use them, and the first battlestar you can get isn't even close to powerful enough for the amount of fleet points it costs. The game is tactical fun for sure, not so sure about strategic yet, I'm still running through the campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
