![]() ![]() Now for a quick crash course on Starsector’s factions. Now, humanity is reduced to about 20 star systems in a sector that they used to rule entirely, split between warring factions and threatened constantly by something lurking beyond the safety of the surviving colonies. The colonization efforts weren’t complete, leaving the colonists cripplingly low on both food and the knowledge necessary to build and maintain advanced technology. Key word being was.Ģ06 years ago, all the gates in this little sector of space (the Persean sector) went dead. The only way to travel between galaxies was to use giant gates to teleport across intergalactic distances in an instant. Humanity was ruled by the Domain, which controlled multiple galaxies. The story of Starsector is a bit complex and a bit vague. There is an extensive variety of worlds to choose from- some are idyllic, and some require full super hazmat suits everywhere at all times. This includes four terrible death rocks that produce raw minerals, consumer goods and all the machines/ships/weapons necessary to run an empire, an ocean world that farms rare seafood and trades extensively with other empires and a distant colony on an idyllic tundra world that digs up long lost technological relics. You can go from a beggar with nothing but a gunship and a civilian shuttle to mastering an entire fleet of warships better equipped than the state military and supported by an interstellar empire of your founding to literally anywhere in between.Ĭurrently, in my save, I’ve built a decent warfleet able to beat nearly any other fleet in the game, (sometimes two at once) supported by six colonies. It falls closest to the genres of 4X strategy and RTS but, neither of them are really representative of the game’s scope and possibilities. Starsector is a very freeform space game. Starsector gives you the freedom to either build or destroy the galaxy, however you may please. Have you ever wanted to be a space pirate, sowing death and misery across the stars to procure personal wealth and power? Have you ever wanted to explore the reaches of a lost interstellar empire? Perhaps you want to strike a trade convoy headed to an enemy colony, just to watch the resource shortages send said colony into complete anarchy. ![]()
