    If you like a great story please do get this game. 
     
    I really don't want to spoil anything of this game to anyone since you really have to check it out yourself but my does it do a great job of keeping you absolutely hooked and getting you by surprise with plot twists. 
     
    Not sure how long it is in total but I'm 24 hours in and i just got to a absolutely MAJOR plot twist that I did not see coming at all that makes me think that I have not even played half of it.
     
    Such a great story. 
     
    Also Yuri is THE MAN (those playing the game and who are further along where I am should know by now what major story event I am talking about)

    @Rallier: hmmm where are you at? 
     
    I thought the story was serviceable, explained in small and brief sentences each time it advanced, but the plot twists are really good.   
     
    By the way, i'm in chapter 3 with a three ship fleet. :p

    I can't really tell you which chapter i am since that would actually  be a spoiler because of the way they handle chapter names but i'm 34 hours in. 
     
    You've only seen the tip of the iceberg. Prepare yourself for some very dirty political games.

    I still can't beat that first boss fight from the quicklook. Which is too bad, because I love me some good ol' space opera. But I still don't like how the plot's delivered too much... like a phoenix wright game. 
     
     How do I know what the other guy's range is? I dunno where I'm safe.

    It's in the style of Mechwarrior, where the story progresses linearly.

    Standard RPG storytelling was interactive until several years ago.
     
    edit: and this has nothing to do with linearity.

    Ok. But this follows the jrpg style with a predetermined path and answers.

    I'm not entirely sure because  I did not have a second save file to check it out but there is a point in the game where you'll have to choose ehhhh.... something really important, chapter 8 and early what happens after chapter 8. There are some points earlier where you are given the illusion of choice where the game forces you to choose a choice, chapter 3 has this for example.

    The story is excellent,  shame the combat and game mechanics can be seriously frustrating. Oh and all the choosen paths, I.E What faction to side with, eventually leaves you in the same place, but with different ships, bullprints and skills.
