Do you like Everspace 1 or 2 more?

[Wehzy]

I just bought this on sale and i was wonderin what people prefer. I heard everspace 2 isn't a rougue-like anymore which people seem to like more.

Everspace 1 is much fun, because less complicated, and much easy to learn.

Trust me, Everspace 2 is much complex and much more lore to learn at the beginning. Except who are Veteran in space simulator for years, they will have no problem on Everspace 2.

Everspace 2 has a lot more to learn than the first one did. Due to the first game being a rogue-lite, it actually has very simple mechanics.
1) You progress through the game, gathering weapons, resources, and credits along the way, until you get destroyed.
2) Back in the hangar, you use the credits from the previous run to improve your ship and pilot abilties.
3) Launch another run, using your improved ship and the knowledge you picked up on previous runs to do better.
Rinse and repeat until you finish the game.

Everspace 2 added a bunch of stuff, so there's a lot more to learn.

I'm almost done with Everspace 1, almost 60 hours... way too grindy. I don't even plan to touch another Everspace ever again. Its not bad, but it's not good either.

You put 60 hours into a game you don't like? That doesn't even make sense.

It just has to do with the personality...it does not have to make sense..some people tends to finish something they started or else it bugs them to death...

I call ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ because ES2 isn't a space sim its an RPG. You have to play RPGs to understand it. 5000+ hours in Elite and Star Citizen mean ♥♥♥♥ all when it comes to ES2.

How is a rouge-like grindy? There is nothing to grind. You play and either win or lose that same day.

Most rogue-like's lock upgrades behind progression. So you can only advance so far without progressing and unlocking upgrades that make the game fair. ES1 had upgrades locked behind progression.

It's... too grindy?

You just play the game.

You start a run, you complete each area, and then you get to the end of the run and then you are done.

The grind is "playing the game cause it is fun"

Which ones?

The loadouts?

No rouge-like locks upgrades behind progression. Thats a rouge-lite.

The rouge-lite part of ES1 is easy mode.

Play hardcore. You don't get to keep any upgrades. The game is 100% beatable even then.

So no grind. Its all in your head.

1 is way more fun. I have 1,100 hours between 2 accounts in ES 1...3 hrs in ES 2. Also, I don't like games that are in Early Access.

Why are you using multiple accounts? Just curios. I still can not get into Everspace 1 unfortunately :(
