1st failed F2P multiplayer YAGER game of this post.

A long time ago (August 7th, 2019), I tried out this game. Premise was nice - controlling giant starships of differing types in 5v5 battles. Execution was mediocre, and progression wasn't great either, with tiers and number boosts. I think it could have been a really nice game, but hey, let's take a nice concept, and make it a niche multiplayer title with dying player population, am I right?

Of all elements of this game, graphics and ship aesthetics were probably the best, which says a lot, I think.

Someone came up with an idea to shut down the servers in 2023. Then someone else came up with an idea to add achievements, which I knew would take a massive grind to complete, so I didn't even bother to start up this game one more time before it died.

Servers dead -> Won't play

A PvPvE extraction shooter. Very mixed feelings about this one (see my review). 2nd failed F2P multiplayer YAGER game of this post.

It's a game I rushed to play because its servers were due to close at the end of September of 2023. I managed to get 32 hours of game time, a very incomplete chain quest story lines, a lot of exploration for 1 out of 3 maps, and overall a decent progress into what the game offered.

I really, really, REALLY like a certain extraction shooter called Hunt: Showdown. This game is also an extraction shooter, so I picked it up to check out if I like Hunt, or if I like extraction shooters in general. Turns out, that it's Hunt.

Cycle was a decent game to play, but there were too many things about it that I didn't like, of which first and foremost were the extraction shooter elements. I once died to an enemy player, and got so fed up with it, that I stopped playing for a week. Basically, other players will bother you during gaming, and it can be really such a bullshit. Especially since they can be end-game players with super weapons and armor, while you run around with practically trash level equipment in comparison, still stuck in early game.

Servers were closed before I finished the game -> won't play category. Not much of a loss really. Imho it would be a great base for a single player game, but hey, everybody wants a multiplayer only live service game with microtransactions. Look at where it got them :|

An SG win. Not really recommended as it's a bland, short game focused on couple basic mechanics.

Nothing to write home about, but hey, at least it's a completed SG win! \o/

My 2nd ever SG win - now 100% complete! \o/
Also my 1st finished game out of 60 I plan to do in 2024.

A fantastic game in my humble opinion. Read the review if you want.
Played through it in one sitting in around 5 hours, and I am reminded again, that the adventure genre of games really can make you feel like you are on an adventure. :3

Wholeheartedly recommended and added to favourites <3
