i'm 5 hours in and i'm really liking this game. I'm wondering how I've never heard of it. I was at Best Buy with my son and he pointed at the display for the LG Ultragear monitors and said "Dad what game is that? that looks cool!" i googled the mission name that was being displayed and here I am, 5.5 hours into a really fun game.

This game is....ok. The developer predominantly only made mobile games prior, so i would say given that, they did a good job. Theres some really bad design choices. The auto saves are too sparse. You cant save your game when your in a mission...and guess what...youre almost always in a mission. Its combat is pretty fun but being unable to meneuver in the X axis really sucks. Graphically its damn good. Story, well as everyone has said about this game, the story is pretty meh. Buy it on sale.

Here's what you need to know. This game is good, but it isn't great. The combat dynamics, soundtrack, graphics and environment all score 10/10. The story, depth of characters, and results of decisions in game..all score 4/10 at best. I'll give it a conditional thumbs-up. You enter the saga not having a clue who you are or what you stand for and those things would be OK, if at any point someone explained it to you. Only by paying very close attention over the course of the entire game do you even garner a murky understanding of what this story is about. There is no reason to care about the outcome of any portion or the characters or even the story line because none of it matters. In the end, even the finale` cut scene is rushed, confused and leaves the player asking themselves "What the hell did I just go through and why did I bother?" Hardly a fitting reward for saving the entire universe from even a poorly developed everlasting darkness. The answers to these questions can only be found if you play it for yourself and if you get it on sale it's probably worth the money. (I spent $5.00) But, be warned, Chorus is an experience that is best compared to ordering a sandwich and only getting the bread and some mustard. High-quality bread and mustard to be sure, but that's it.

Ever since I first got my hands on Freespace 2 demo as a wee lad, I've enjoyed a bit of space pew pews in my gaming routine. Space combat enjoyers got some decent games over the decades, but overall the pickings are rather slim compared to Wing Commander, X-Wing and Descent days - especially if you're not into roguelikes, multiplayer, building spacestations, Microsoft Excel or AAA flops. And since godfather of the genre prefers to keep his magnum opus in forever-alpha state and milk it by selling $5000 pixel ships, you gotta take what you can get. Luckily, Chorus is more than "be happy you got anything at all" game. I don't pay as much attention to graphics these days unless it looks exceptionally good or bad. Chorus is pretty enough I suppose, with some very distinct visual elements later on. Ships designs could be better and more varied. Especially capital ships - most designs felt barely functional. They could also use some weathering - as it is most vessels looked like they're brand new and made of plastic. I've seen actual plastic model kits which looked more realistic. Maps feel a bit lifeless at times, despite ocassional civilian ships floating around - I know it's cold, empty space, but still - giant oribtal city full of neons should be busy with traffic, rather than having just a few bigger ships stuck in line to a jumpgate. Check out Scrapland to see it done well. Music, sound effects and voiceovers are quite good - my one gripe here is the sheer amount of character's whispered thoughts. It's a bit hard to hear at times, plus I've never been a fan of this internal monologue fad. Anyway, let's get to the important stuff - the gameplay. As some others noted, initially the controls feel a bit awkward and the first few battles might feel like you're trying to dogfight while flying a freight train. By the end though, with some practice and after unlocking a few new skills (especially drift, which basically turns on newtonian spaceflight, rather than having the ship work like an airplane), you'll be gliding gracefully through a literal bullet hell. Some of my fights towards the end of the game were so cinetmatic, they wouldn't be out of place in a blockbuster sci-fi flick. All in all, once you get past the initial hump gameplay is extremely fun, with no major detractors. Everything else is secondary in my book, so if you want a TL;DR - there it is. Speaking of unlocks - ship customization could be better. You get a few options for each weapon, though usually difference comes down whether it's weak but rapid fire or slow, but powerful. There are also a few options for "internals", boosting various stats, complete with unique set bonuses. In the end though, weapon damage generally takes care of itself and I found boosting efficiency of special abilities to be clearly superior to everything else. Overall despite bunch of component options, build diversity is pretty much nonexistent. Every now and then you get to switch it up by piloting a bigger, slower Spirit-class vessel, which is basically a hull attached to a bunch of chainguns, mowing enemy waves in seconds. Those serve only as a palate cleanser in a few missions though, and you can't customize them at all. Things look better when it comes to enemy variety, with a bunch of different factions' fighers, heavier ships and turrets dropping mines or firing charged lasers and a few capital ships here and there that you'll dismantle by destroying various bits and pieces in order. Overall combat scenarios are pretty fun and exciting, culminating in awesome fleet battles and rather unique bosses, though the fights against basic fighter squadrons get rather repetitive. That said, powers unlocked as the story progresses speed those fights up massively, limiting the tedium. Storywise - could be better, could be worse. You're ex- ace pilot for a weird space cult, who decided blowing up a planet was going a wee bit too far on a murderous cult scale. Then, as usual, you get pulled back into the fight, because your old friends attack your new friends. Overall it's workable, if at times a bit too anime for my taste. Aside from main story, there are some decent side missions, usually netting you meaningful ship or ability upgrades. There are also some repeatable activities netting you some cash, like collecting salvage, fighting off attacks and sitting next to another ship for a few seconds to refuel/hack/calibrate something or other. All in all, Chorus is a qute decent space combat experience, with fun and exctiting combat system, which only gets better the further you get into the game. It has some flaws, but they're more noticeable in hindsight than moment to moment gameplay. Overall I had a ton of fun in the ~20 hours it took me to 100% the game.

Chorus is probably the best Jedi-in-a-starfighter game you could find out there, ironically leaving behind the actual Jedi Starfighter games. It also has one of the most memorable scores in recent gaming history and a solid gameplay loop bridging the gap between the Rogue Squadron and Ace Combat games. The story could be summed up with "What if Darth Vader left the Empire and joined the Rebellion ?", but Chorus' universe and lore allows it to be much more with its exploration of spirituality, belief and otherness in a way that feels more Dune than Star Wars. All in all, Chorus is clearly an underrated game that deserves your money and your time ! :)
