The addition of Nova Cores (real money only) and Mods that used to be part of upgrade process has pushed this game too far into pay to win territory. It was a long process to upgrade and purchase ships before, but there was a path for F2P players. Nothing worth my time anymore. Shame, as it is/was quite good as a bullet hell game. I'd pay a one time fee for a game this polished, but the Nova cores being realoney only, and the VIP subscription have ruined it for me.

Phoenix HD was my jam in college. I'm not sure why I never bothered with this sequel until now. the first few levels were incredibly underwhelming, leaving me thinking, "Surely, this can't be what they intended." It wasn't until around Level 20, where the challenge became apparent. Also, the Daily and Community missions make the campaign seem like child's play. Higher rank comes with greatly increased challenge.

Thanks for the review. Glad to see you tried Phoenix 2 eventually ❤️ Could it be that the first levels were "too easy"? The learning curve starts very low to allow many players to join, but it ends very high. We'll check level 26, but it sounds like there was a problem reaching our servers to register the score, instead. Thanks again 🙏

Pay pig devs, the main game takes about 2 hours to complete and after that, you are immediately hit with paywalls to continue playing daily missions. The game will generiously reward you with loot at the start but soon you will realize only way to progress is by paying, but not even paying is for your advantage, in game currency is so expensive and not even guaranteed to give you what you actually want, you are paying to have a chance to get/craft what u want. 100 ships only makes this worse.
