Interesting that Steam would finally add this game. I remember trying it years ago. The concept is great, but the game was a buggy mess. I wonder if this version is any better.

ive never played it, but i think this is one of those games where the community patch solves tons of issues with the game…

Yup, wanting to play it for years now and it really seems the community patches make it playable.
Maybe it's finally time.

Don't think Road to Hell got an Unofficial patch, did it? I remember one for White Gold, think Wesp was working on it. I'm not sure Deep Shadows ever finished a game, though they always had great ideas.
I remember Road to Hell being literal Hell before, the No Horn/Honking patch removed the sound file!
BTW: I might have missed the announcement at RPGWatch but I had no idea White Gold was on Steam!

I don't remember the boarding during space battles ever making it into the final build or anything patched.

Wesp5 has an unofficial patch for this game. Has anyone tried it? Does anyone know if it works with this version?
February 6th, 2017, 22:42
I've played this a bit with the Wesp5 patch and other patches I don't remember. It had potential but it's not a good game even with those patches. The visuals and play make me think of Unreal 2 to a degree. Maybe Unreal 2 + STALKER + funky spaceflight. Something like that.

I loved the game (played it with Wesp's fixes), but be warned: there is a point in the game where a cutscene plays… and then that's it. It's not an appropriate place to end the game - the plot is just completely unfinished.
Despite this, I think I got my money's worth.
(this was the GamersGate version I bought years ago, so not sure what differs in the Steam version, but I doubt they've "finished" the game in the interim)
White Gold (which I also enjoyed) is finished, at least.
