Everspace: space arcade shooter

Unless they dramatically change things, the original Everspace had both 3rd and 1st person (with or without cockpit) views. I always play it 1st person with hud overlay (cockpit is cumbersome and gets in the way of the pretty visuals).

That would change things if so, I will keep an eye on it and wait and see.
The visuals look great
 
Everspace 2 going EA in December, still as pretty as ever:

I'm not quite convinced about the open world/trading, thought the FTL-style jump map was a great fit with the flight/combat model and kept everything at a nice pace each run, particularly after the DLC added a lot of sector variety and storylines. But ah, I'm happy to be convinced otherwise.
 
I tried it. Felt like Elite combat light mixed with FTL sector progression. I would have liked it more if I didn't have five years of Elite combat behind me.

It played smooth and looked pretty good. I would recommend if you're an Elite combat junkie who isn't sick of it and enjoyed a rogue like sector progression mechanic. Played nice with a controller and was easy to just sit back and go pew pew right away. You will die a lot but you gain points depending on how well you did and it gives you persistent unlocks between plays.
