On the opposite end of the faction spectrum is the Lumeris, who value trade above anything else. The Cravers are a pure warrior race, hell bent on taking over very portion of the galaxy without mercy or quarter. The text that supports these narratives and cutscenes is supported with some top-shelf writing, and nowhere is that more obvious than the political intrigues that permeate the entire game.Įach of the eight major factions has their own motivations and archetypes. Beyond cutscenes, many of the transition text moments are read aloud by a solid cast of voice actors. Unlike any other 4X game I’ve ever played, Endless Space 2 features a great deal of voice acting. These are driven by the heroes of each faction, each with their own strengths and backgrounds. Swaths of writing accompany each of the available missions for each faction, justifying why you are tackling the quest even if it boils down to “go here and fetch this”.
Each of the eight playable factions has a storyline, all of which run parallel to one another. Endless Space 2 goes all-in with not just one storyline, but several. It’s usually enough for you to draw conclusions on which races fit the established archetypes of good guys, bad guys, techies, spies, etc. Most 4X games provide very little setup for their overarching storyline. You’ll receive quests throughout your conquest.
