Okay, So this is a simple post-review over what i've played so far, first off, this whole mod is Amazing to look at to say the least, everything felt grand in scale, like an actual galactic war & having numerous flavor text chiming in and out made it all the more immersive, especially how you've extented the vanilla levels to have more context & goings on so it's not entirely a one to one recreation, also the boss encounters were climatic as ever, at first I thought I had to wait for an opening, but thankfully they all mostly operated on the 'Shoot it till it dies' philosophy, which I can say I'm happy for.
There were though, issues during my time, the first being how easy it can be to die or loss 3/4 of your health in no time flat, sometimes the enemy can be smooth & manageable, othertimes there is no mercy from the get go and kill you in seconds, possibly cause they all just decide to focus all their time & attention on me, plus, and I believe that it's just apart of the 'FreeSpace 2' build, but by god do I yearn for checkpoints here, dying near the end of the level from stray hits or from running out of time, and then having replay the level from scratch is a major motivation killer (I'm looking at you Meteo & Zoness), I say this as someone who has bit the dust many times over.
The weapon variety was all manners of fun, interesting how the Hyper lasers are actually separate weapons from the standard lasers, But I must talk about the 'Beam Cannon', mainly because, on my first play of Meteo, I had no idea that I needed it for the boss to proceed, but after equipping it, I practically Melted 'EVERYTHING' in my way, no boss was safe from my Kamehameha Laser...potentially overpowered, perhaps?
I wasn't able to play everything though, I was able to go through Aquas & Zoness fine (Dual Beam Lasers = Flawless Victory!), while my first Landmaster level on Macbeth, my weapon screen said 'None', so I was unable to fire anything, I did in-fact go into the weapon selection screen before so, so I'm not sure if that made it glitch out from error or something
