I've never seen an empire builder this big before! I started in easy mode with one little trading ship and a tiny fighter (both unarmed). If you can soldier on through the bugs, though, this is one heck of a game. Extremely busy sectors in the game tend to stutter, too. Some of the mission objectives are a bit wonky. If you start the game in easy mode, you can't complete the tutorial because you have no weapons. The autopilot sometimes gets confused and slams you into something much bigger than you are. The game only seems to allow one NPC voice at a time so you may miss out on important story information if a message comes in at just the wrong time. I'm pretty sure Egosoft took that blacklist and pasted it straight in to their high priority requirements list. A lot has been learned over the years about what not to do in a game to make it more appealing to the millions of casual gamers out there. You will be blown up and will need to re-load from your last save. And, if you go and attack a massive fleet with a tiny fighter, you will not find yourself revived a few killometers away with all your stuff. It's quite happy to offer you missions you can't possibly complete if you're foolish enough to try them. The game never really tells you what to do. It's also about the most anti-casual game I've ever seen in my life.
The game is an Elite-style game with lots of space battles and even more space trading. Just a few quick trailers on GameTrailers to clue me in. This game has eaten me alive for the past six weeks! It didn't get much hype, though, or at least little hype that reached me here in Kansas.
