What is Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector?
Can you escape the enemies chasing you when even your own body works against you?
You play as a Sleeper, a mechanical entity with the mind and soul of a human.
Except your savior turned out to also be a malicious owner, just dressed in different colors.
Of course, Starward Vector does tell a very different story.
When it comes to gameplay, it’s much the same.
Which you earn will come down to a combination of luck and skill.
Instead, each of your dice has durability; accrue stress during contracts and your dice take damage.
Can you escape the enemies chasing you when even your own body works against you?
Too much, and the die becomes unusable until it’s repaired.
Starward Vector is a bigger game.
Erlin’s Eye in Citizen Sleeper always felt like it was hiding more secrets from you.
You can draw allies to your side, if you desire.
Citizen Sleeper may have been narrower in scope, but it wasdeep.
Starward Vector trades some of that depth for range.
Apart from that, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector is still a little rough in some places.
Wherever you go, you’ll have options.(Image credit: Windows Central)
What better recommendation is there than that?
This is the game for those who dream about the worlds they’re immersing themselves in.
Can you believe I intended for this to be a short review?
The locations in Starward Vector are both diverse and interesting.(Image credit: Windows Central)
After all, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector has already been out for weeks.
That’s exactly what a great RPG should provide.
If you have yet to play the first game, that’salsoon Xbox Game Pass.
There’s usually more than one way to approach a problem, depending on your Sleeper’s skills.(Image credit: Windows Central)
Can you escape your fate while discovering what freedom and life means to you?
It’s a very approachable game, and it’s also a part of Xbox Game Pass.
Starward Vector does an amazing job building a world outside of dialogue.(Image credit: Windows Central)
Having a ship of your own is both a blessing and a curse.
Menus can get a little messy.
You don’t need to have played the first game, although you may see some familiar faces if you did.
