The flying mechanics are really cool and the graphics style looks awesome. The story seems to be really unique and there are quite a bit of features to investigate. Gonna update the review later, but its a seems clear 13 euros for this is a bargain!. The game is exactly what it claims to be, a story driven adventure. The game mechanics are based around 2 vessels: a mothership traveling distances and nukeing planets, and a smaller fighter jet for flying, mining and fighting inside the planetary systems. It's not a space simulator like Elite Dangerous etc. So if you are looking for a game like that, look elsewhere. The flying and shooting is actually really casual and fun, but there is a strategic aspect to everything. Player has to be taking care of his resources and karma, and it becomes pretty obvious soon upgrading the fighter is required to be able to survive.The plot is built around a big story, and it is always present. I'm really enjoying the way it is done. It's pretty straightforward as a mechanism, feels more like going through traditional levels instead of an open world, even though the game world feels pretty massive. And the story itself gives a lot of depth to the game. I've currently done about 20-30 missions and it still feels like I have just begun.The game seems to be technically solid, looks good and sounds awesome. So if you are looking for a more casual side of a space game with a really strong storyline, a big recommendation for this.. Constellation Distantia is a linear space game whose main selling point is it's 8hr story driven campain. I was looking for a chill sit down game to play in vr and I enjoyed it. The graphics aren't the greatest and the combat is clunky (you are a mining vessel after all), but the story was paced well and decent enough that it kept me interested until the end.. Currently Unplayable in VR for me, unable to select anything in the VR menus no matter the input device. I tried a keyboard with all controllers off/unplugged receivers, mouse, Steam controller, two different 360 controllers and the motion controllers. Nothing will let me select anything to start the game, even though it opens with "New Game" highlighted, if I launch the game and then hit enter when the menu shows, it STILL won't select it (from the keyboard...).Looking forward to trying it out when it actually works and will update my review then.. I'm not that much of a gamer but more interested in VR and what the technology has to offer. At a reasonable price Constellation Distantia seemed like the right title to try out what feels like to be a space pilot.It's clearly a PC game, because the menus and texts are a bit hard to read at times, but most importantly the flying is a lot of fun (it's actually 1st person in VR), and it looks really nice. The graphics are flat, clean and clear.The game also features a background story with some quite likeable characters and decently written dialogue. The game takes you from mission to mission, but it's easy to just forget it and explore the universe the devs have created. A definite thumbs up for me.. I immediately got hooked on the story. I'm really enjoying this, thumbs up!
