EvoChron Legacy Steam Review. First off I would have to say, I've found this game pretty addictive, racking up about 50 Hours in my first week. Not nearly enough to be an expert, but enough for a reasonably informed review. Richard Douglas'score is excellent and I have downloaded it and just put it on in the background with some screenshots when I am chilling out. It's really that good. Evochron is just amazing value for it's small file size, it competes well with much larger and more expensive offerings, like X4 quite well IMHO. I can confidently say Technical support is excellent. While I had no troubles getting the game to work on my tower; I ran into some difficulty with my laptop. Turned out that there as a small error being generated between my updated Razor Mouse Driver, and an old config file. A problem that this app was sensitive too. Anyhow it ultimately was not caused by the game, but The developer was very prompt and helpful in helping me track down the bug. The Default Start is to begin as a Mercenary Pilot, Which I think is a left over from the games last iteration as Evochron Mercenary. As Flying and Navigating systems has some learning curve, I would suggest starting as a Miner/Trader, it will give you and opportunity to learn the controls, without being Harassed by Enemies. My current start is as an Independent, and as such I have not been attacked at all; so if your looking for a little more action you might pick Federation or Alliance; I don't think it will make any difference besides who attacks you. Evochron employs more keybindings than any other game I have ever played and thats a good few. Nearly every Key has a bind, and while most are just the key, a few are Alt Keyed. This is not a huge problem there is a map online that you can download and personalize; The problem is a fair number of keys can get you in a little trouble, M-Mouse Look if accidentally pressed will cut out your ability to control your spacecraft without knowing why, fortunately I found a thread addressing this problem. Obviously your going to want rebind some of these keys to a Shift or Alt, as a safety measure. I think a Gaming mouse is a huge help here too, as I personally bound my Primary Weapons to a side button on my Razor Mouse, and my left mouse button to select target in gun-site, Just a personal choice. Anyhow I think your going to want to get in a few hours flying, before your finalize your key binds. The Skyscapes are beautiful and the Stations and ships well executed if you love space games, you wont be bored. At the very start mining is your very best way to make money, but it soon enough will become a little tedious, so you'll want to do some trading; which while normally not nearly as profitable will get you out of the back yard. Teach you the Plotting, Hyperspace system, and allow you to check out other systems and again the game art, which very good. Landing Dirtside is a challenge the first time or two, but if you come in slow about 500Mps and follow your beacons, you'll be acing that in no time. Evochron is not the product of a large studio, but of one Dev. So sometimes you might have to work around a small glitch. I was running from Talison to Sapphire for the 20th time; when the pathing bugged and I kept crashing into the gateway and crashing the app. On the 4th Try I just hand flew the ship to a position directly in front of the mouth of the gate and took it through and went autopilot from there without further trouble. 10 hours Later and probably as many runs to Sapphire and have not seen the bug again. Anyhow any Indie project is going to have its needles in the haystack, but overall Evochron Legacy is more that worth them. As a long time X4 Player who just got sick to death of playing savior of the Universe and that games buggy AI; Legacy fits me like a glove, it truly is the sandbox X4 claims to be and as I am happiest in game flying about in a single seater with no one to answer to but myself. If that sounds good to you too, try this game. It does have a demo, and I'm sure you'll buy it in no time.

Can Not wait too see if the devs produce a next one. If only i new about this earlier So far i am having a ball in VR. Able to custom the ship how i want it is awsum thinking. if only elite dangerous could copy sum of there ideas. my basic ship i was able to upgrade to a different one for 5k then i removed from that a few things i did not want so i could hold more. Now my basic ship can hold twice as much and has become more of a scavanger/miner. Bit of a step learning curve to it but through watching youtube vids and from what i know it seems rather simple to pick up and play. Learn as you go. The training tutorial my brain was at melting stage after the basic's would suggest in the next game making it basic to advance to pro flying. and more buttons than my 3d pro logitech can handle. i will not be surprised if i do not do 1000 hours or more in this

Amazing game. ONE MAN developed this by himself, and its been in development/improving since the days of DOS. I havent played that much of it because its gigantic and a bit overwhelming, but it is absolutely worth the time and money. Heck, just buy it to support this man's passion and hard work, as a middle finger to the dying/decaying AAA industry who lost their passion long ago.

I can see what it's trying to achieve. And it's admirable when a dev has a vision and sticks to it. I just don't personally think that vision resulted in a fun game for most people. It's a realistic and believable representation of what a sci fi space travel setting would be like. The thing is, realistic space is quite a boring thing. The space setting itself invokes mystery and awe, but it needs a little bit of artistry to actually appeal to the fantasy of space discovery. Otherwise you just end up simulating the same kinds of problems you have in the real world and ending with a space-themed excel spreadsheet instead of a space adventure. I do know, however, that a lot of people like management games and simulations. So this will still be a postitive recommendation - just make sure this is exactly the type of game you want.
