It's so relieving to actually have an RTS sequel that isn't just as good as the last game, but is outright better. The quality of life features are overflowing, from auto building into the fleet, to easy research, to simple selling of materials when you need to buy something.

It's so nice to play a game that has quality of life features I didn't even think I wanted instead of begging them to add them. We had loads of fun playing this, and kept playing once the recording was done.

Nice video 👍 I'd love to see a BattleStar Galactica mod for this game one day!
Oh Rimmy!

Ok rimmy i have a question about this game: how do i get it to not save to a windows filepath that needs to be backed up with cloud storage (a feature I dont know how to turn off)? I tried playing this game, and I just can't anymore because instead of saving to the C drive it instead saves to the local windows documents.
Cosmoteer part two when?

Can’t wait for a Star Trek mod, or a Star Wars verses Star Trek one.
Don't forget Star Trek! Star Trek Armada 3 is one of the most GOATED mods of all time, regardless of game.

A sequel that’s just like the original game but improved and modernized? Well I’ll be! A developer that actively works with their player base to make changes that improve the core gameplay without any unneeded drastic changes.
that's for me the best sequels.
drastic changes are only needed if the core gameplay is lacking.
but besides that, QoL, better graphics, and refined gameplay based on feedback.
oh, and modding tools 😎🤙
Man it's kinda nice to see Rimmy get early access to something and just love it.
Sins was my first introduction to 4X games, its so exciting to see the devs are still around
i remember my uni's Political Science Org hosting inter-dorm Sins, Planetary Annihilation, stellaris and Civ Games, running with the help of our IT department's help in building an inter-building LAN network,
my best memory is running the Halo mod for Sins, called Sins of the Prophets and having massive 8 player RP games
I got super confused at first and wondered "When did I post a comment here?"
I have not played Sins in ages, so I am really looking forward to trying this now. It is kind of a relief after the letdown that was the new Homeworld.
Ive played the living hell out of the original Sins and all the popular mods for it. Seeing all the little QoL changes like the build ships into fleet and research from the build menu are really cool when you compare it to the base game
can't wait for the Sins of the Prophets 2 mod
I remmber playing this on school computers because our school let us run EXE files but we could not install stuff.
so all the for wow player ran the launcher and did the update at home copied the whole game to a USB stick and took it to school.
I played Sins the same way just copy the game folder and took it to school.
"Sir, a second tower struck our spacecraft"
7:52 Those heavy gunships look like something a Cylon would dream up
They would have to get their heads out their asses if you mean the human forms. Seriously their basestars sucked and they got lucky with the back door.
@@cliffdavidson5096 and you know what's funny the basestars are a downgrade from the previous ones who had a single devastating volley of missiles in em but we're tanky and had guns so you can't just flak wall there attacks repeatedly
@@marley7868 yep I’ve played deadlock. Maybe they should have kept the centurions in charge.
@@cliffdavidson5096 as it turns out if your enemy spamms kesller syndrome single target volleys of missiles is a bad idea
@@cliffdavidson5096 I figure the nuBSG Cylon Baseships are something cheaply made for long-range missile combat, while Batlestars are made for in-your-face gun battles. So Baseships are expected to remain at range, dodge, and only take a few hits. This lets them be cheaply built as the missile and fighter batteries don't need to deal with a lot of recoil and the hull is not expected to take a lot of fire.
But when the Pegasus arrives out of nowhere and the Baseships are nice and stationary, things get painful quick.
Sins 1 still has one of my favorite gaming memories. Buckle in, it's story time. Back in my army days, I found out a guy from one of our sister companies was a gamer like me, and both of us had Sins on steam. We decide one day to play a full game together and it all boils down to one final battle after a solid 4-hour nonstop galaxy-smashing campaign. I found out after the fact he basically issues a decree, or something of the sort to the last remaining enemy to rally all of it's forces at there last remaining planet. Both of us array 2 massive fleets to attack, me from one side, him from the other. A planet-shattering pincer attack. My fleet jump in right on to the enemies left-most force, which is bolstered by a battlestation... To make a long story short, I was pumping out ships and sending them at breakneck speed to the fight until we broke through.
Then comes the shocker of a century. "Love you bud" I see in chat as my left starts crumbling, wondering wtf is HAPPENING, I find out that he broke our alliance. I pull my remaing fleets away from the fight, including my titan and 2 battleships, having lost one during the fight and get my heavy hitters repaired. He follows me to the nearest planet I control which I hurriedly fortified and get prepared and a second battle breaks out. By sheer luck, I win because while he chose to planet crack his entire empire for a lump sum of resources, I kept my mining intact, which allowed me to keep pumping out ships. By equal parts luck, and replacing lost ships like they were truly a dime a dozen, I won the battle.
To this day, my biggest regret is not making him stay in the game so I could have the pleasure of dismantling his empire one planet at a time...
I dunno why I decided to post this all out, and I doubt anyone'll read this far, but I guess what i'm saying is I'm glad Rimmy has such good taste in games. That is all.
When you go "Ohhhhh!" or "Ahh" with excitement/contentment that many times and its not even five minutes into the video, it's a pretty good sign of quality.
5:30 thats literally the lore for TEC. Basically all their ships are retrofits of various civilian ship designs. From the first game (before the expansions) only the TEC battleship was newly designed as a dedicated warship. Some were old designs IIRC, from before the TEC was established and was basically at peace for a long time.
Yeah some of the smaller vessels were for anti-piracy, but only the Kol Battleship, the new Corvettes I think, and Titans, are completely new warships designed for the ongoing war against the invaders.
Im so glad they kept the SINS 1 voice lines, they're fucking amazing
I was wondering if it was the same recordings
that could be temporary . lot of things are still place holders i think like the music . they didnt change the icons till recently for example . game still cooking
@@LauftFafa could be cool to keep them as an option you can swap to!
Been iffy on getting SOAS2. I hold Rebellion as the pinnacle of the Sins games. I loved GalCiv2 and GalCiv3 is just a step back in everything. But watching this convinced me to buy Sins2.
I'm still really interested in what they're planning for how the Advant will play. I liked how for the Vasari credits was something that only mattered when trading and bribing pirates, so if needed you could spam ships because your most basic frigate costs only metal. As the TEC, the way you can just make your worlds into a WALL of ships and guns for the enemy to slog through was also amazing. So I'm really looking forward to what the Advant could be.
01:42 the akkan used to probably be a cruise liner that was retrofitted into a warship due to how desperate things got, so it makes sense it has the rave dome
all im saying is, Space Costa got hands
when carnival takes the fight outside the cruise liner
@@Mahrooby the Costa-Carnival corporate war of 3XXX really screwed with the Trade Order's economy
Best part of this video being released is now we can tell our friends what we are playing in while in discord calls.
Envious of you guys getting the steam build early. Can't wait for the mods to this as well.
9:55 - That was in Sins 1 too! The more developed your world was, the more of those cities there would be.
Those are disabled if you go low in some config and you need to do that if you try to plan in a 100 planet size map lol
My favorite capital ship is the Akkan battlecruiser, it was previously a space cruise liner before it was refitted into a colony ship and if there wasn't a war I would become a captain of one being a cruise/colony hybrid with helping colonize worlds while my passengers would have an amazing holiday traveling through space.
I love the Kol-Class Battleship, she's straight out of Babylon-5 with the bow beam lasers and I love the sheer amount of DAKKA she brings
@@weldonwin honestly my second favorite behind the Akkan
I saw a modding option on the main menu! I hope it has support like homeworld did before they kneecapped it. They had mods on there that made entire factions from the ground up.
It has even better mod support than Sins1.
"My robots stand ready"
That sparks some nostalgia. Same lines, but slightly different voice acting it sounds like.
The amount of Qol is insane! And yeah, as Rimmy have said, this might've been the only RTS that I've ever seen thus far to actually have a sequel be a hundred times better than the previous one. I just hope that the engine is capable of handling much more ships than the previous game! Would make the late game soooo much better and worth waiting for.
The big reason they made a 2 instead of updating the old game this heavily was that they could use a better engine. 1 is a single core only engine game, 2 has multi-core support.
The new engine being such an upgrade is the reason they have actual working weapon mounts on most of the ships.
Rimmy didn’t realize that as the planet is bombarded the cities get destroyed
I think he did when he mentioned the battleship bombarding the asteroid colony
i do hope they add proper steam mod support would be nice considering all the over haul mods for rebellion
9:55 fun fact for those new to this game, there is a non-zero chance those are miniature 2d models of all existing ships circling the planet (they did this in the originals)
(edit rephrasing)
"WHY'RE THEY RETREATING" My guess would be the titan that wants to literally eat them.
SOSE 1 has always been my favorite 4X sci-fi RTS. I feel like I've waited to long for its successor to come to Steam. Soon, my precious...
1:51 Carameldansen ahh ship design, that rules
hell, i remember playing the original in college as part of the gaming club. I imagine it must be nice for the devs to watch videos like this and see how much their hard work is appreciated.
It was very nice to watch :)
Love Rebellion, have hundreds of hours playing with my friends in it. Got that level up and black market *thunk* noise locked in my brain
But can we just appreciate how damn PRETTY the shield splashes are?
Seeing Rimmy happy at a RTS Sequel is like seeing a happy kid at christmas
It's great to see a game dev basically go "What if we took what people liked about our first game and just...did it again for the sequel? And then added a bunch of Quality Of Life stuff while making things look awesome?" And I am quite excited since I played tons of the first game. Also the Angry Psychic Women faction was my favorite for reasons.
I'm worried that they're not shown in the video - are they just not in Sins 2? I really hope it's just a case of them not being ready and not that they'll be DLC, but....
They're at least listed in the Steam page for the game so hopefully they're just being touched up or something. Release is still stated as Q3 so we still possibly have a few months.
Somehow this is the first I'm hearing of a Sins 2 and by the looks of it, it's amazing.
Damn… this is the first rts in years that made me excited to play
When it fully releases modders will be working on halo,warhammer and all sorts of mods if it has support for them but hope rimmy plays it when it does
been 12 years since we had a new Sins game on steam!, i look forward for steam workshop to install my mods from now until the day sins III comes out in 2040!
Rebellion remains one of my favorite RTS games ever and I was skeptical of 2, but this looks like a near perfect upgrade already
What I'm looking forwards to with this, are the Star Wars and Star Trek mods for 2, they are going to be so dope.
"Commander on deck!" Is one of my favorite voicelines.
I loved Sins 1 so seeing Sins 2 is an upgraded version is great. Always loved that it was a simpler 4X game, so it didn't take much to get into it. Can't wait to play this game when it comes out.
I love how they kept the same soundtrack and ships voicelines.
The modding community is salivating at the mouth imagining all the sci-fi worlds they can plug into this
Honestly the sudden half life scientist line about the microwave had me on the floor. that shit was so out of nowhere and i love it. i need more random half life dialogue in these videos.
One thing about sins of a solar empire is that the devs had to invent more than half of the mechanics as the engine tech just did not exist at the time and there was only so much a computer 20 years ago can do. Now with some computers equipped with 8 or more cores available, this could be a new age for grand strategy and RTS style games.
23:24 "Oh no, a Gauss defence station, up ahead!"
"G-g-g-gauss?! Turn tail and run!!"
I heckin loved this joke xD
"Looks like it was retrofitted to be a carrier" lmao that is basically the TEC. The Marza? mining ship. Akkan? Cruise ship. Dunov and Corsev? Freighters. The Kol battleship is one of the few TEC ships that was designed for the military.
i find that with SOASE, of the factions were so fun to play,
With the music being fantastic, the voice lines, each factions art style, etc. i really fell in love with this game. cant wait t see what the Advent brings to the table, not to mention seeing the new ship as well!
I can't wait for this game to release on Steam. I never played a Sins of a Solar Empire game in my life but I really want to play this one.
Marza has been the tec staf of sins. "Anyway i just started missling"
When i first played Sins of Solar 1, i didn't truly enjoyed the experienced since i was "forced" to play with my brother. But when i replayed it when Rebellion came out... damn, it almost made me lose some exam XD
Friggin Orgov Torpedo Cruiser firing torpedoes bigger than most frigates.
Also, LOVED the Thargoid reference!
@2:00 Macross battles be like.
lmao
The game got better. Great to hear.
I remember breaking the protection on the school computer lab to install sins on every computer for secret lan parties.
Can’t wait for the new Starship Troopers video coming soon.
Same
Those pirates got "SlipSpace Rupture Detected."
You know the game is good, when you forget you are making a sponsored video. My funds are bit short right now as im curently in uni studying to become a sailro, but i might save up some money and get it when it releases! Thanks for the recommendation Rimmy.
I love the original Sins game and still play it sometimes all these years later. I am completely sold on the sequel. Thanks for showing it off. So many great improvements, especially QoL stuff.
It's really good to see the devs listened to their community. This game comes across as something made by lovers of the genre for lovers of the genre
omg i fucking love sins of a solar empire, i have all the games on cd's and got them when they came out, those are some of the best games i have ever played, watching u play this and see that its so fucking good is making me cream myself becasue for once in my life a rts game that i love and was a part of my childhood has not been shit on with a new addition to its series, god if u exist pls just let this one be the one pls.
The intro looks awesome
IF terra invicta has shown me anything then its that sins idea of "ther aint gonna be no ground fights in a space war" aproach is probably pretty realistic.
Fun fact about the rave ship is that it was originally a luxury cruiser that was retrofitted into a warship
It's nice to watch Rimmy's stuff cause I get to learn of some obscure RTS games!
the rotating jump routes means you can't just fortify choke points and have factory planets because your choke point will disappear and your factory planets will join the front line
That or you'll have a reason to rekit planets during a battle as new situations turn up. Allowing new front-line worlds fortify, and rear-line worlds economise.
So glad to see this game the love it truly deserves, both from Players and from the Devs. Can’t wait for the Advent release, if you couldn’t tell. UNITY LIGHT OUR PATH.
The ship design is amazing! Some of them remind me of Stargate's aesthetics.
Actually so nice to see Rimmy have fun with an RTS once in a while
Loving seeing all of the Ships i loved from the first game coming back in the 2nd.
TEC Loyalists forever.
Despite having over 200 hours in stellaris it never quite scratched the itch I was reaching for. This looks like it might just do that and more. I'm hella exited
Never played the first Sin game. It still sit in my steam library, staring at me. But this looks great! I can always appreciate a good RTS game. Especially one that the developers clearly love to make.
I *CANT WAIT* for the total conversion mods for this game
>"Sir, another tower has struck the carrier."
The Marza Dreadnought really just reminds me of Starsector and i mean that in the best way possible
Gods.... I can't wait for this game. I've been addicted to the first one since it came out.
We touched their boats they drop 4 fleets on us - pirates 34:45
Oh man, cant wait to see what the Induce Hysteria from Advent is going to look and sound like!
Really fell in love with Sins 1 a few years ago and I'm so happy that the sequel seems to be doing well.
When I heard of Sins 2 coming out i was concerned like many other fans of these type of games. Looks like they done an actual good sequel to the first one along with the many many QoL stuff is very good to see!! I still long for a Gundam ship mod that takes place in the famous universal century!! With these greatly updated graphics It'll look really sick! Seems like the game ran really smoothly for ya'll thats also good to see in sequel .
Thanks for sharing! That trade ship reminds me a bit of the Orca in Eve... September is such a long ways off :( lol
I’m so stoked for this game-I have over 1,000 hours in the first game between the different versions.
9:50 the orbital cities and traffic was in Sins 1 as well-it was just a lot harder to notice on planets with a low population density.
I had played Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion so much. I cant wait to see the second game coming out. I want to try it so badly as well. Im also really interested in the orbital mechanics for the planets. Just forcing me to be clever about my defences
I would like to add to the title of this video.
'-that we made a long the way'
I am so happy that Sins 2 appears to not just be equal but improved upon sins 1.
Rimmy really hit them with the 'SLIPSPACE RUPTURE DETECTED'
I love seeing people geeking out over sins 2, it's so good.
A small tip some component for the capital ships are consumables like radiation boom you need to activate it manually.
The next sins of the prophets is gonna look absolutely lit
This looks amazing and I will buy a copy for my buddy if he has hard drive space. So many improvements and let's go garrison forces!
I remember playing the original years ago when I was still in like... elementary school. Definitely looking forward to playing the sequel once it fully releases for all
23:50 "This shall be our finest hour!" [proceeds to shoot apart a barely armed colony ship]
04:58 He's with the science team!
I'm unbelievably hype for the return of Sins. Loved that game, loved the modding community.
Sins rebellion was my first space strategy game i played. The memories of my friends laughing at me cause i didnt know how to develop planet, killing my friends entire felt with a ton of mines and so much more. Honestly happy we're getting another game.
Looks like a fun game, great video. Hopefully I am able to play it in the future with friends
I really wish Rimmy would have tried Sword of the Stars. It's a space game with 3d Global Map (which makes it a bit hard to navigate), different FTL methods for different races and different tech trees for each race (and maybe each game) as well. And also, you can just use your ship's weapons to fire on the planet to kill population, infrastructure and make it uninhabitable
Holy shit, this is just straight improving on the Sins I formula.
Sins I was already amazing. This is just straight up better.
the modding potential with the new engine is gonna be awesome.
SOASER was hands down one of my favorite games that I played as a wee lil fucker, this is so exciting to see.
I had a bad day then I see a rimmy video and it all is good
