The thing is, I was wrong but I did not know that at the time. I said “It’s good, but not as new and fresh as the first one”. Two days into playing the game, Matt asked me how it was. All tallied up, Endless Space 2 is a wonderfully deep game that is pushing the boundaries for the genre but there are issues. Let me start by saying that while my review may seem to swerve a bit and I feel it is necessary to manage expectations beforehand. Does this sequel live up to the high expectations? It does and it doesn’t.
The Early Access version showed enormous promise but the game’s release is not quite as smooth as Amplitude had hoped it to be. After last year’s revival of Master of Orion went south, it was up to Endless Space 2 to defend the honour of the turn-based 4X genre.
