I've been rocking visual enhancement mods and mods that add new planet types and it really impacted my enjoyment of the game positively. Hop online and play against other folks, get the fantastic expansions that add tons of new features of experiment with the mods and tweaks that the community has brought to the party. There's also a ton of ways to expand your play time.
It a fantastic scale and really impressive - the feature will spoiler you when you notice the lack of it in other games. You can view from far out looking across multiple stars and hundreds of planets all the way to up close in the exhaust trail of one of your thousands of ships. I can zoom in close and pan the camera up close and around my smallest scout ship or largest capital ship and then I can zoom out and fill my screen with dozens of ships, then hundreds, then thousands and still the zoom keeps going. One of the features of this game that really stands out for me is the zooming feature. Some games find it hard to balance their features just right but Sins manages this deftly. The challenge comes from, not balancing formulae or a shopping list of micro-managed stats, but balancing your attention between the expansion of your empire and defence against other players and pirates. Researching new technology or economic advantages is simple. It's kinda strange as the developers have clearly built up back stories and strong identities for each of the three playable races.ĭespite the game being a 4X and RTS hybrid - I found it extremely easy to get into. Although you can load up map/scenario and play against the AI, there is no dedicated Campaign to be found and the game's expansions have not delivered in this area either. Whole days have been lost of the fog of war created by my own empire in it's question for inter-system conquest.Ī lot of folks have criticised this game for it's lack of single player and they are right. Loading up a quick game of sins and facing off against the AI on challenging difficulties is pleasant experience. It's hard to explain why but outside of some Red Alert 3 campaign I hardly touch the genre. The thing is, I've been too hot on RTS games. Right just noticed this game on sale and I've been playing this a lot recently so I thought I'd help spread the (late) word about how awesome this game is!Ī deep game with researching, fleet building, exploration, economy building, enemy negotiations, pirates, stars and space ponies!
