@Rod_Humble @RichVR @BrianRubin I picked up Astrox Imperium on sale and played for about 90 minutes. I found it extremely well made but the universe felt bland and generic. Before I hit the no-refund 2 hour mark, I wanted to hear from you if that first impression is wrong. I don’t need crazy shit, just some personality and sense of a unique game world.
I personally thought it has personality, but keep in mind he still has lots to add.

I feel the same as Brian. But if you aint feeling it then the vibe stays pretty similar during the game so its not going to suddenly change.
Thank you both. I decided to keep it, and keep at it. The sale price is small and I trust both of your judgments. Also want to support an indie dev who is dedicated to the project.
I’m thinking of picking it up too. It’s been on my radar since the dev was on Brian’s SGJ podcast a while back. It’s a super ambitious project if he gets even half of what he’s planning in there.

Is the main character less unlikeable this time around? Is there a non-violent playthrough option?
I never played the first game, but so far all I’ve done is tazed people.

Played both and enjoyed the second one much more. I would say the character in the second one is much better, so are the supporting cast.
Yup, my playthrough of the second game so far has been mostly non-lethal. Although if some people get run over by cars I hack remotely, that’s just “collateral damage” heh. I like to think of them as “knocked out till I leave the area.”

Well, I find the game very enjoyable even at this early stage. It’s not perfect but it has a great deal of promise. I personally am glad I got it.
Thanks for weighing in. Looking forward to getting in to it.
