The reductive description is that it's FTL set in a legally-distinct Warhammer 40,000-like universe, replete with mutants, psykers, and daemons, with a dev team that will come across as earnest FTL fans who have only ever beaten the game with boarding strategies. And your initial run your initial impressions, will be indistinguishable from the above description, all the more when it's prefaced with a mandatory (and, admittedly, sluggish) tutorial that assumes you have never heard of FTL or its impact on the rogue-like genre. Boarding action will be plentiful and easily dominated, crew recruitment opportunities abundant to the point of redundancy, ship systems and armaments not particularly interesting, and the balance of combat and its rewards very lacking; the final battle in the final system very quickly reached and defeated with little in the ways of phases or climax. The first run does a disservice to the game's mechanics, and to veterans of FTL and its revered Multiverse mod like myself, will only succeed to present itself as a grittier alternative to the decade-old game with less color-saturation and more grimdark pixel art; up until you unlock the difficulty system with that first victory, and find everything that makes it an iteration rather than a flat clone of FTL behind it, and realize you just spent an hour-ish slogging through 'Torment 0' as an extended tutorial for 'Torment 1'. At that point the game opens itself fully to you, and the boarding-centric gameplay of Void War compared to FTL begins to feel more congruent the other aspects of its design. Crew become disposable, if not sacrificial to directly fuel spells and weapons themselves. New ship systems can be acquired to act as an alternative to your weapons, which can be slotted with utilitarian or boarding party support options. Crew can be slotted with consumable summons, niche weapons, armor that create or protect from various status effects. You get multiple choices for unlockable 'Commander' units alongside choices of ship, which end your run if they're slain, forcing you to weigh their obviously-powerful uses against the hyper-limited healing options available to you. I thought my favorite ship would be the one that mass-creates disposable suicide bombers that deal ion damage to rooms when they're slain, until the next one I unlocked used poison-immune tanks and a barrage of poison-creating lasers, and the one after that at a glance seeming to be about hull-breach and suffocation strategies; and between those *starting* options and my favorite commander so far simply being a mutant that can use a second weapon slot, I'm being coaxed into builds that simply do not and could not exist in FTL despite the blatant similarities in their mechanics, that can do so much more and attack in so many more ways to accommodate a difficulty and pace that escalates rapidly after the first 'Torment 0' run. The game is only becoming more distinct from its inspiration with each update (the addition of planetary enemy 'ships' and infiltration mechanics in the last update, and the promise of 'dungeons' in future ones is just refreshingly baffling and a natural extension of the game's focus on intership crew deployment). Ultimately it's going to be of the most interest to ingrained FTL players wanting the same broad gameplay with more variety, higher difficulty ceilings, and micro-managing crunch, or Warhammer fans looking for similar aesthetics, and less welcoming to outright new players than FTL, but has the legs and content even in its current (Holiday Update) version to compete with FTL and its Multiverse conversion mod respectively, even if it's slower to demonstrate what it offers in comparison.
