A pleasant surprise considering... – VEGA Conflict Review

I’ve been a space game fanatic since the 80’s, unique if one takes into account my gender, age and the (usual) lack of availability of space-themed video games. At the beginning, I was dubious - to say the least. I figured the strategy elements would quickly lead to boredom. My past experience with strategy games had taught me that “research” is actually a euphemism for “hurry up and wait.” I never could figure out why some games had relatively extensive built-in lag periods. Anyway, I prefer the “other” 4x: mining, combat, exploration & trade. I expected I’d give up after about a month. . Because VEGA CONFLICT has a healthy balance of action AND strategy, it has kept me engaged. For example, I’d much prefer turn OFF the AI since I can lose without the help of software, thank you very much. I am old enough to make my own disastrous choices. Lol. In sum, VEGA CONFLICT is an action-packed, well balanced hybrid to satisfy an eclectic audience: enthusiasts of both strategy and space adventure sectors. So...If you have a hankering for a space themed game that challenges while stepping up your pulse rate, Vega Conflict just might be the game for you.
