So far I've noticed is that Chorus takes a while to get into but it gets a lot more action-packed. Everspace 2 is more chill and feels more like an actual "space" game.
Had a blast in Chorus, visually stunning and epic story! Everspace 2 is more customizable, but at the same time you have less emotional attachment to your ship, simply because it's just a ship, in Chorus it's a sentient AI. And the ship in Chorus looks incredibly detailed and beautiful, cool factor to the top while still making sense. Specially my old 1080ti can run Chorus at 4K 60 fps stable!
I know this is 2 years later but everspace 2 also runs in 4K@60fps and just looks better, everspace 2 also has many different ships to choose from with many more options for customization and combat, and is just a better space shooter
@@mathewhosier9739 Dude I was talking about the GTX 1080Ti, the graphics card, not a 1080p display. I said I played Chorus on a 1080Ti at 4K@60fps, and yes on a 4K 49" display.
Having a blast with Everspace 2 right now. If any of you are old enough to remember playing the game 'Descent' from '95 you will definitely feel like this is related to that. The sound, music, ship design, especially in FP mode. It all feels like a modern Descent game meets Wing Commander IV.
Interestingly enough Rockfish Games makes a video almost weekly, they said they had inspiration from a number of games and specifically said Starfox wasn't one of them.
Playing Chorus and its amazing, i dont give a damn about variety and all that clunk just give me fluid combat and thats what i got with Chorus. Its very very good.
I got both and they’re both a blast! Chorus has the space based psychic powers and an arc of redemption. Everspace 2 has the ships and an arc of finding a sense of belonging.
Great video, just started Everspace 1 and I’m loving it but Chorus was such an incredible game, 100% completed the game. Loved every second of it, I want more !!!
Fun fact: They both come from different Developers based in the same city of Hamburg germany. Both Develipers have "fish" in their name. Rockfish Games and Deep Silber Fishlabs.
Playing Chorus rn. I'm halfway. Compared to Freelancer, it's like a concentrated formula. Good graphics, combat and kinda interesting story. It's lacking on freedom, exploration, variety and sandbox elements. It's not a bad game at all, but far from the ultimate space game experience for my taste. I never felt like I was lost in uncharted space, that the world was alive or that I was making my own story.
Review still accurate in 2024. Chorus doesn't have insufferable loading screen like Everpace 2. You play during hours in the same mini-open worlds which are filled with countless missions/events, the immersion is never broken. While Everspace 2 force to encounter MINUTES of tedious space travel just to speak to uninteresting NPCs. One of the worst "Back And Forth" quest design ever made since Mass Effect Andromeda
Movement between the two games is surprisingly different, just being able to strafe with the left stick makes everspace feel more naturally intuitive moving my vehicle around in a 3d space, but chorus is emphasizing forward momentum to use for drifts.
Good take.. I actually have both games and agree with most of what you have said with this. I am about 9 hours into Chorus and about 28 hours into Everspace 2.. I am not sure which I prefer so far.. both definitely have their pros and cons (Chorus "drift" is frustrating but practice makes perfect) Chorus from what I gather only has TWO playable ships.. the one you start in and the one you move to (excluding the ship you control temporarily in some missions) whereas Everspace 2 has a much wider selection of ships AND the ability to customise the appearance of your ships by taking visuals of different ships and merging them to design your own (upcoming feature not yet added, it is EarlyAccess of course). With linear.. Everspace 2 does have a story progression but I wouldnt call it linear as such.. sure the story is the story and no multiple choice in it.. but you can wander off Freelancer style and do whatever you want.. save every time you dock and leave a station.. Chorus you cant save during a mission and sometimes it appears you are not in a mission but it wont let you save.. or a mission will auto carry onto the next and its a case of guessing when you save.. graphically.. I think it is kind of hard to distinguish which is better visually.. I am playing on an RTX3080ti on ultra at max resolution for each game on a 50" screen.. and visually.. its hard to choose which I prefer visually.. both are very good. Length? Everspace is far longer I think.. I am seeing Steam reviews of Chorus of people finishing it in 20 hours.. Everspace 2? Barely out the first region with that many hours. If you like space shooters I personally would recommend both!
Much appreciated. I’m so late to the scene, I didn’t even know part 2 was out! I’ve still been running thru EvrSpce 1 when I get bored of Ace Combat. Star wars squadrons was cool, but after the 2nd playthru, I lost interest. I’m debating Chorus & ErvSpce 2 since I LOVE to fly
@@11buttnaked They are both free on GamePass and Everspace 2 isn't in that beta anymore, with the voice acting missing near the end, etc. version. Should now be like an actual game. Gonna go hop into it now and see what's really changed. Just gonna be hard starting a new game.
Good video, I'm downloading both demos now, will probably end up getting both just in what order. Squadrons would've been awesome with a sandbox mode in a Starwars universe & more detailed ship systems.
I have spent YEARS trying to remember the name of Freelancer. I had a demo version on my PC waaay back in the day, and I haven't found a good replica game since. I wish these two games were merged, at least the best parts of them mixed together. Another game from my past that just fills me with Nostalgia is Airfix Dogfighter. Nothing like flying a model airplane through the house while dropping bombs on toy soldiers. Would highly recommend playing it if you can find it and get it to work on Windows 10.
I even tried the Mod Multiplayer Version when it was first being worked on... Is there anything modern that comes close with that flight style? And gameplay?
Am I the only one who thinks that Chorus is a more detailed compilation of the best elements of Freelancer and EverSpace? Like, I know there's EverSpace 2 coming out, but when the first one came out in 2017, I was blown away by the mechanics and the partial similarities to Freelancer. And then Chorus comes out and I'm like... Damn, reliving my childhood once again 🥲
I've played Chorus recently and I loved it. Now I'm searching games like that in PS5. The things that I enjoyed the most where the dogfights with other spaceships and the worst the complicated and a bit unbalanced story. Gonna try ever spaces 2 soon to see how I'm going to deal with it
The trailer for chorus did not make it look like a sandbox game. It made it look way more linear and story driven. Currently addicted to Everspace 2, but Chorus is on game pass, so I'm going to try that next.
I’m currently near the final mission of chorus and the game is pretty good ! I have ever space 1 but haven’t played it much ! They are both pretty good ! I’m currently playing on ps5 so I expect the experience is gonna be a little different on pc . I wish I had a pc because there so many space games I wish to play ! Great review 🙌
One thing that I do see in steam reviews for ES2 is that there are loads of empty nothing when the game makes you wait to travel long distance and an endless amount of unrewarding "puzzles". Don't know much about Chorus though, seems to show some potential.
Everspace2 has 6DOF controls, and you can assign a button to turn off inertia dampening to make ship drift or "roll", to fly backwards, sideways, etc. One downside for me with Everspace2 compared to Evochron and alike is that the gravity on planets is almost non-existent, as well as atmospheric physics.
Just playimg both games,also original everspace,all of them are a blast if you like space dogfights and amazing spaceships designs,combat can be difficult,but my suggestion is go play everspace on pc,the controls on a controller for flying and combat for everspace are kind of bit limited,and also bit clunky cause it has a lot of comanda for rear wings and flying stuff ao on pc you have a button for each part. But i am very happy with chorus and both everspaces.
Never heard of Chorus like ever. Everspace 2 ive been playing for a few months its beyond great. Just id advise anyone who plays the XBOX edition release. To play the steam, it has more of the new updates. How do i know this ? I played the demo on xbox, than got the full whatever off steam on my PC.
I really like Chorus and want to see a sequel that improves on it and focuses that gameplay around the drift mechanic even more. It's basically a small Vanquish in space and if you haven't played Vanquish yet, that's a huge compliment here. It will feel a bit clunky at first since it misses a few directions of movement by design, you will compensate with the drift and when you get the hang of it you will feel more freedom than ever. Everspace 2 feels more traditional and therefore lacks that distinction Chorus has. So it's up to your taste, for the moment, you want a game you can explore and do more or you want a focused game that does one thing very well. Both are well crafted and worth their money, so I like to think they complement each other if you have both. If you would put a gun to my head, then it's Chorus for me, I didn't spend over fifty hours in the game for no reason...
ok lol. Seriously why is almost all of the chorus footage of the first ship that you have for the tutorial, instead of the actual ship that you play as for 95 percent of the game?
Chorus vs Everspace 1 both don't run well on legacy PS4, but run them on PS5 and hey presto problems disappear. Frustating when games were released on PS4 and poorly optimized. It takes an entire next generation to solve the games performance problems.
Chorus has a better story but everspace 2 is just a better space shooter with better gameplay and combat, better progression and more rewarding exploration, while i did find the characters and world of chorus to be a bit more interesting it doesnt make up for the fact that everspace 2 is just more fun to play with more customization and deeper RPG mechanics, chorus is a good game but everspace 2 is a great game
Interesting and well presented review I know price shouldnt matter, and obviously at time of you making this they were the same, but in the current steam sale Everspace 2 is £25 and Chorus is £35, does that change your recommendation at all? I do prefer more sandboxxy elements, so im still leaning towards Chorus I read down and someone saying one appeals to thsoe looking for a new Freelancer and one more like StarFox, but i never played either of those i havent played a "space" game since Star Wars Galaxies: Jump To Lightspeed, and that was an MMO so i doubt really compares its also not what im looking for exactly, i want a sandboxxy game, with some story/missions that doesnt require me to have the reflexes of a cat and the eyesight of a hawk
He says better movement variety in Chorus, but I fully disagree. You CAN'T STRAFE! I couldn't do it. All you can do is this little dodge. It's awful. It feels terrible. Space shooters are all about freedom of movement to me. If I can't strafe, I can't play the game. So far Everspace 2 has been better in every aspect in my opinion. Chorus had really cool visuals and concepts, and I wanted to finish the story, but it just bugged me too much so I went and looked for another space shooter to scratch that itch.
If you have to choose: Chorus. Better gameplay, more exciting action. Everspace 2 is still Early Access and worth checking out but doesn't have the neat and unique Rites or the great sound effects of Chorus.
Ya need a decent GPU to enjoy Everspace 2 at Ultra settings. I don't know if it's truly that demanding or if it's terribly optimized. Or both. Don't get me wrong, the game can be beautiful. That's mainly due to vibrant colors if you ask me. But... as long as the nose of your ship isn't pressed directly against a meteor, the textures do look nice, the effects, fire, smoke all look great. It just runs so bad on my RX580 8GB. Most Unreal Engine 4 games do run worse on AMD cards from the same era in comparison to Nvidia. Most. Anyways, I want the eye candy but can't really handle playing at less than 30fps. I have to use my keyboard and mouse to do well... I ain't good with a controller. I WANTED to use a controller so I could play this game casually but I can't do well enough with it. I don't have the finer thumb motor skills that my console peasant brethren have. I'm "full left" or "full right" when it comes to aiming with my thumbs lol. So, I run everything on Ultra with Post Processing down one notch to high and volumetric effects (whatever it's called) down to medium. Still get 30fps lol. But, okay, sometimes I can get 45-50. Depends on the area. I swear.. the game is pretty and all, but it's a wide open empty space game. Why... why am I getting 30fps in 1080p on a 580 8GB?
Oh, Everspace 2 comes with Game Pass.. so there's that. I can't remember where I played Chorus, now. I thought I had it for free. Maybe I do have it on Epic Game Store or something... I'm 99% sure I had the whole version. Maybe it was just a demo, though, but I did play it. I got over 100fps in that game. Graphics seem the same at first glance... but yeah, there's more detail in Everspace 2. I just don't think the visuals warrant the poor performance. Last thing... If you do have a decent GPU, I imagine Everspace 2 looks and runs incredibly. Probably doesn't need much more than a 6600XT to run 1440p @ ultra settings and get 60+ fps, right?
Writing after Everspace2 1.0 release, seems they have done some optimization. In certain locations, instead of 200watts previously now my 3080ti draws only 150watts, and that's 4k with all ultra and DLSS=Performance. Probably older cards should see improvement too, though I wouldn't expect much from RXes in new games.
@@r.d.6290 Technically, I see optimization as higher loads on the GPU with more watts pulled. But who knows what they've done exactly... You sure you had vsync off before and it isn't on now? I downloaded it and need to start a new game.. which is why I haven't really hopped back in for long, yet. Unless that's a joke or I read wrong. A 3080Ti pulling 200 watts.. then only 150 watts. Are you undervolted extremely? Those cards typically pull 350+ watts My 6700XT pulls 195-200 watts in the most optimized games, 180-185ish watts is most typical in well optimized games, usually with no RT. And then my 6700xt pulls around 165 watts or less and it just goes to show there's either a weak link in my rig (unlikely) or those games are really the least optimized. Lastly, I only have 40 RT cores (ray tracing), but typically, turning RT on in the same game makes me do from 180-185 watts RT off, to 195 watts with RT on. Since 40 more cores in my GPU became active. But you may be trolling me. And your point is that it ran terribly before and even worse now?
@@JustAGuy85 CPU is doing fine. No undervolting on GPU. Once in early access ES2 had issue with high GPU power draw in menu and map . V-Sync is on always.
I love Star Citizen but let's not kid ourselves. Chorus is out and complete, while scope-wise it's tiny compared to SC, it's a solid experience of a mind-blowing epic journey you can't have in SC (Squadron 42) for at least 3 more years.
So far I've noticed is that Chorus takes a while to get into but it gets a lot more action-packed.
Everspace 2 is more chill and feels more like an actual "space" game.

Hello, do you know when everyspaxe 2 Will came tô consoles?
Tried Everspace, kinda liked it but didnt love it. Got Chorus and it blew me away!
Chorvs looks beautiful honestly. I cant judge the controls for ES2 til it comes to console 🎮 officially
Greatest downer with Chorus for me is, that you can't manual roll... but I don't even know if Everspace2 has that "feature".. .
It has manual roll
It does
@@allaboutlife4950 nah, sorry i triple checked this. there is no rolling in chorvus or atleast not in the demo or early gameplay.

Maybe it was just a demo, though, but I did play it. I got over 100fps in that game. Graphics seem the same at first glance... but yeah, there's more detail in Everspace 2. I just don't think the visuals warrant the poor performance.
Last thing... If you do have a decent GPU, I imagine Everspace 2 looks and runs incredibly. Probably doesn't need much more than a 6600XT to run 1440p @ ultra settings and get 60+ fps, right?
Writing after Everspace2 1.0 release, seems they have done some optimization. In certain locations, instead of 200watts previously now my 3080ti draws only 150watts, and that's 4k with all ultra and DLSS=Performance. Probably older cards should see improvement too, though I wouldn't expect much from RXes in new games.
@@r.d.6290 Technically, I see optimization as higher loads on the GPU with more watts pulled. But who knows what they've done exactly...
You sure you had vsync off before and it isn't on now?
I downloaded it and need to start a new game.. which is why I haven't really hopped back in for long, yet.
Unless that's a joke or I read wrong.
A 3080Ti pulling 200 watts.. then only 150 watts. Are you undervolted extremely?
Those cards typically pull 350+ watts
My 6700XT pulls 195-200 watts in the most optimized games, 180-185ish watts is most typical in well optimized games, usually with no RT. And then my 6700xt pulls around 165 watts or less and it just goes to show there's either a weak link in my rig (unlikely) or those games are really the least optimized.
Lastly, I only have 40 RT cores (ray tracing), but typically, turning RT on in the same game makes me do from 180-185 watts RT off, to 195 watts with RT on. Since 40 more cores in my GPU became active.
But you may be trolling me. And your point is that it ran terribly before and even worse now?
@@r.d.6290 Then, again, DLSS performs at 4k means you're playing at 1280x720p upscale to 4k.
Your CPU keeping up okay? Or am I just being whooshed?
@@JustAGuy85 CPU is doing fine. No undervolting on GPU. Once in early access ES2 had issue with high GPU power draw in menu and map . V-Sync is on always.
I play both. Both are great.
ha.. X4: Foundations....
Everspace 2 the game is not even released yet for PS4 and PS5 only Chorus game is release for PS4 and PS5 airship Space Shooter Game
Indeed & he never claimed it would be :)
Chorus all the way ever space bores me
Chorus has a terrible logo. It should be Chorvs. 😂
While they both look good, I'm just sitting here wishing that Rebel Galaxy 2 was more like number 1, just improved. . . :(
chorus is cheaper here
21 century. Who else plays games on a laptop..? Only a decent gaming PC.
Everyplace 2 graphics are much worse than chorus. And the writing is worse than Chorus
I know ever space 1 sucked
chorus is better
Star citizen much better
Have characters people
Can use in campaign.
I love Star Citizen but let's not kid ourselves. Chorus is out and complete, while scope-wise it's tiny compared to SC, it's a solid experience of a mind-blowing epic journey you can't have in SC (Squadron 42) for at least 3 more years.
There’ll always be that weirdo who’ll comment SC on any vid that has a space game, even if it’s not even competing with SC
Everspace owns it
