So after finally having some time with Crying Suns, I’ve come to a conclusion. It’s not good. It’s not bad.

It’s boring.

After maybe 30-40 minutes, I felt like I’d seen everything, and for the rest of my time with it, I WAS SO BORED. Like, I was so excited to be done with it, that’s how bored I was. It’s a shame, it’s pretty, well-written and has some fun gameplay elements. BUT IT IS SO BORING. Ugh.

Little Indie Games Worth Knowing About (Probably)

I disagree with Brian. I’m loving the game, the combat and the planetary exploration, and don’t find it boring at all. In fact, of all of my recent purchases (which are far too many!), it’s my favorite.

I didn’t want to be the downer in the thread, but yeah that was my experience from playing the demo ~4 months ago. The combat was both simple and and unenjoyable and difficult to parse, while the away missions took about 10x longer to resolve than they should have.

Demo was updated on Sept. 5, and it sounds like the demo you played had the old planetary exploration system.
