Everything Seth said was true

Everything Seth said was true. Having played this since early access, I was surprised he covered this game. Problem is, I'm certain he stated working on that review before AMPLITUDE released their "final patch". Forget Awakening, the base game is in the worst state it has ever been. While the most easily reproduced bug is "Darth Paul" which prevents the editing of system improvements past Level 2, the game-breaking bug is the infinite pending. With Darth Paul, you can at least finish a game, albeit somewhat gimped. Infinite pending currently has ZERO work-around. Saving and reloading used to work but no longer. You can even go back several turns prior via the autosave function just to have the same pending bug on the same turn. This makes games impossible to complete and makes the time spent leading up feel completely wasted. My theory is the A-team is off working on HUMANKIND leaving the... not-so-talented back to screw up a good thing. That "final patch" was not needed and has done more harm than good. They would've been better served fixing that god awful DLC that they outsourced. Don't buy this. Even on sale. It's broken. When they fix it, this review will disappear. If they don't, I wouldn't recommend buying HUMANKIND either. I was as pumped for that as I was for ES2. But after this fiasco, my faith in AMPLITUDE has all but dwindled. Tragic.

ES2 is one of my favourite 4X and space / sci-fi games

ES2 is one of my favourite 4X and space / sci-fi games. It is also one of the games that reignited my interest for writing mods and coding in general. Thanks for that, Amplitude. I only hope the game can get a few more "final patches", because while I think it has a very solid core, it also has some very rough edges still, especially if it comes to multiplayer performance, combat, faction mechanics and balance. It's not as smooth and polished as it could be. I love the Endless universe and hope that there will be many more games in which I can explore it. All the best to all of you <3 [old workaround for the "Darth Paul" bug and DLC issues] In your Steam Library: Right-click on Endless Space® 2 Select "Properties..."

Hard to put down

The "Mixed" review status is down to a game-breaking bug that emerged shortly after launch; to the developers' credit, it was fixed very quickly (but was rather upsetting while it lasted). I don't think it's justified any more, but it was at the time. Don't let it dissuade you anymore! As for my thoughts on this game; it's fantastic. It's a 4X game that focuses heavily on your chosen faction's story, and how it progresses as time goes on. You get to make real, meaningful choice that continue a well-written plot. If that's not your thing, this is still a totally brilliant turn-based strategy game. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone, especially if they enjoyed the first Endless Space.
