I think the open-endedness of Stellaris will give players who like the more sandboxy nature of games some more shelf-life, but for players like me, who will 'beat' a game like terraria, stellaris, or whatever and feel like they've already seen most of what there is to see, we don't have much desire to play it again beyond a completely new experience. I imagine it's similar for Endless Space 2 faction stories, but at least I don't have to worry about coming across the same story if I play a different empire like I do in Stellaris. In the case of Stellaris' events though, they're cool to see the first time, but aren't that entertaining for me in subsequent playthroughs. However, I will admit that there are some crazy events that can happen in Stellaris that can really shake things up (late game crisis, crazy rare event chains that will turn your people into tomb world loving things of a different species) you won't really find much of that in Endless Space 2.

It's sorta the price you have to pay in Stellaris for such open-endedness, everything feels cut from the same cloth. In stellaris, it's even possible to come across an enemy empire that has the same exact destroyer design as you (like you both are using fungoid ship cosmetic with same weapons), for instance. some love aliens, some want to purge them all, etc.), you won't get anything really cool like a tree faction extending their vines to other empires (Endless Space 2). Every single empire feels like humans but in alternate timelines (e.g. In stellaris, it's much more open-ended, which decreases linearity but makes everything feel more bland to me. In this game, each faction has their own unique ship design, some technologies are unique to some factions, some unqiue skills for heroes depending on faction, different faction populations have different benefits (like the new faction giving out science and bandwith per pop) and political impact, unique faction stories, unique playstyles obviously (united empire can buy techs/improvements with influence rather than dust, this fact HEAVILY influences so many decisions you have to make throughout the game). I just love how thematic this game is compared to Stellaris.

I've kinda fallen in love with it during the free weekend.

#Endless space vs sins of a solar empire mod

Skyboxes are from the Sarcifice of Angels 2 Mod and others are made by myself.I have around 100 hours on stellaris and so far I'm enoying Endless Space 2 more. Textures for planets and stars have various sources: the Celestia Motherlode, Freebitmaps, Google and myself. Infinite Space has a minimod which scales down all units and structures down by 75%, this adds in realism and atmosphere. New planet icons, the addition of new skyboxes and the modification of the starfield make it all much more appealing. In Infinite Space, planets are rendered completely different creating dramatic terminators.

Infinite Space features a new kind of planet bonus system which makes more sense (no more 'Dense Core' and 'Porous Core' at the same time!). Infinite Space includes a 1vs1 map with our own solar system!

Jupiter (Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto).

Many more textures have been added for existing planet types, totalling over 70 different planets! Maps will never be the same again!ДЄll of the planets of our own solar system have been added:

Ice Giants: the gas giants colder version.

Forest: an abundance of fauna and flora makes this a favourable planet.

Oceanic: a planet with more than 95% liquid coverage.

Carbon: a carbon rich and oxygen poor planet with high pressure levels.

Hydrocarbon: a planet with much higher levers of hydrocarbons than others.

Infinite Space features 6 new planet types which have to be researched to be colonised: changing the overall feel of the game into something much more intense.

Infinite Space is mainly a visual mod that adds alot to the vanilla game: new planets, background, enhanced effects, new music, etc. !! You may not use any portion of this mod without asking me first !!

Infinite Space is a mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion.Д¬urrent version: 1.2 for Rebellion 1.82 (Stellar Phenomenon DLC)
