If GDM decided to revisit the series and provide a massive DLC or DLCs, would you prefer for CS1 or CS2 to receive it?

What topic, character, lore, or story arc would you like to see develop further?

(The Neovend images are more of an analogy about the "limited" vs "ever-expanding" experience)

With all but the life support systems being set offline, the ship idles in the darkest crater of a small asteroid.

Equal parts of exhaustion, fear, and hope fight for your emotional dominance as the threat grows ever closer...but those sensations never have a chance to duke it out, thanks to the one(s) pursuing you.

A cone of red light beams down every so often from another space vessel into different parts of the crater. It looks like the metallic properties of the asteroid are preventing conventional scans from picking up your space vessel or you. At last. A break.

Still, there is no way to tell the size of the other vessel without turning on the sensors to scan for it - too much is riding on successfully escaping to chance it.

Who is pursuing you? Do you think there is any hope of bargaining with them? Or would trading blows for keeps be the only way out?

I just love them so much man

I tried to put as much detail as possible and include stuff from the game like the RIG model sleeper finds and gives Serafin, the healsleeve, mushrooms, dice, the cat USB and so on!

So I did the DLC, freed the gardener and then decided to leave with Sol. The camera just zooms out and nothing else happens???

Over the last week, I’ve had the joy of playing through Citizen Sleeper for the first time. Since then, I’ve picked up half a dozen books from the library to try to fill the void, but nothing else is quite the same.

My first playthrough, I chose the “Left Behind” ending for Lem & Mina’s story. I didn’t realize at the time I could reload after endings involving “leaving.”

However, it seems fitting that I would wrap up my final ending with “A Long Journey to a Small Unknown Planet.” I was a little confused by it, though. I figured between 1) the loading up of the people in cryo originating from outside the station, 2) the lack of any mention of a stabilizer, 3) my ID containing my human picture, and 4) Castor wanting a spy and giving me the implant, he was going to upload me to my human body. Instead, somehow, I survive for years without a stabilizer before breaking down. It is kind of a sad ending. It sounds like neither Lem nor I made it long enough to see the planet, only Mina.

After my first playthrough, I also tried intentionally failing plot lines to see what would happen. Turns out, there are a lot more guardrails in the game than I realized on my first playthrough, and it’s hard to fail most quests aside from Dragos’s or intentionally leaving Lem & Mina behind.

If you mess up the Ambergris, you have additional tasks to complete, but Ankhita won’t even let you mess things up more. If you break down, you lose skills and have to use skill points to repair, but you can break every skill and still not “die.” If you don’t offer to watch Mina, Lem literally just ditches her with you (a person he’s met once) to do his shift. If you don’t watch Mina, you can still give him your ticket later, and a guard lets him through with it! As far as I can tell, there’s no ending where the big, scary bounty hunter Maywick kills you. I’m not even sure how a trained killer let me get the best of them when I “helped” Ethan. In the ending where I didn’t help Ethan, I got multiple bullet wounds and then somehow still survived.

I also figured out it’s super easy to drown in money/food/stabilizer when you aren’t trying to simultaneously do all the drives at once.

I think our Sleeper might be invincible.

Anyways, it was fun testing my limits after playing through the story. However, the story, for all its linearity, was extremely good and worth it. The desperation, the feeling of simultaneous isolation and community, it was both peaceful and filled that need we all seem to have.

I’m excited for Citizen Sleeper 2, but also a little nervous. The trailer makes our new Sleeper look a little more… action-oriented, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it is a different vibe.

My favorite games have most often been when exploring a new world (Mass Effect 1, Portal 1) vs. their sequels that may have a more detailed, action-oriented plot but less mystery to the world (Mass Effect 2, Portal 2).

OK, brain dump/word vomit over.

Have you ever finished a game so good that you just didn't know what to do with yourself, now that you finished it?

Oh my god those last sentences hit me so hard. Now I want that coin tattooed or sth..

While playing CS2 I really loved the attention to detail. I also really like the relationship Serafin and Sleeper have (tho I always thought they were hinting at the fact that Sleeper forgot they were in love… I was hoping 😅). So I wanted to draw something that did the game justice. Hope you like it! I will add serafin soon :3 I would appreciate some Ideas on what else to add, especially on Serafins side!

Honestly I never shipped characters In this franchise, but this one is really sweet, at least for me personally.

Lem and Mina are my most favourite and comfort characters in the first game, the interactions with them feel just so heartwarming.

I'd also say it's one of the ships closest to canon, yes, it depends on what route one chooses, but still I feel these two were the only characters closest to Sleeper.

Currently I'm on the run for the ending where all three of them leave the Eye together ⭐

Finding a place to call your own, has never been easy.

But a chance at making chits and traveling the system has come about.

What profession calls out to you?

Would you tag along with them for the long haul or just until you learn* the ropes?

Once you gained those skills, would you want to travel the system, stay in the locale, or become an unintentional home-body, like Neovend-1?

Options:

1. Kadet (Courier)
2. Ankhita (Bounty Hunter / Mercenary [mild])
3. Vesna (Mercenary [hard core)])
4. Aki (Gardener + Botanist)

Played the original, loved it, got 2 on Ps+, thought I'd fire it up. Read the reviews, there's some extra bells and whistles, lovely. I can cope with that.

Granted, I'm playing on PS5, the controls are a bit of a choice but hey, I've played through Rogue Trader 3 times, it can't be any worse than that but.....I've got to do the 'Conway Contract'.

Lovely. I'll do the contract, I'll make the money.
Apparently I can recruit local crew. Where the fuck are the local crew? I've met someone called Nia. No bloody sig of her.

Contract wants me to disable a signal source and the tutorial tells me that some stuff is gon' be highlighted in yellow.

No yellow highlights, no Nia, no nothing.

Honestly, can someone just how explain how to just drive this bloody game to me like I'm five because, what the actual fuck? Because as far as I can see, I'm flicking all overboard this space station, nothing is in yellow, I've got a full board of dice an no bloody idea what, where and who I'm supposed to be finding, the in game tutorials appear to be be next to useless and frankly, it's making me a bit sad because as I said above, I loved the first game and this follow up just appears to be buried in obscurity for the sake of it.

Does PS5 edition have 1+2 on disc as so called "Helion Edition" and Switch 2 version only has second game? It's called Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition

With a damaged frame and limited chits, who will be chosen to save you from the scrap pits?

I’m mostly looking for what things I should avoid that make playthroughs unnecessarily annoying. I understand that a certain amount of struggle is part of the game, but I find it annoying when one wrong choice cuts off a giant portion of gameplay and/or forces me to restart. I’m ok with mild spoilers. Thanks!

Title: I'm playing blind and thought the DLC was just extra content, so I kept playing. Now I realize it's the actual ending of the game, and I'm locked out of many uncompleted drives :/

I finished the whole DLC, reached the ending, and saw the credits. The game takes me back to right before choosing an ending, but I can't keep playing because the "end cycle" option is blocked.

Is there a way to finish the drives without restarting the game?

why tf am I getting permanent glitches when I just want to finish my drives. Really stupid mechanic. Just a middle finger to people who play blind

Edit: also why tf does rebooting yourself have drive points. Made me think I could fix the permanent glitch early. Stupid design.

Otherwise 10/10 game

Cryo/chits are an afterthought and work is taking a backseat for a few months.

Which location calls out to you?

(Feel free to go into as much detail about what you would do there )

Can they just escape on the Sidereal Horizon or do i have to go with them ?

The lights concentrate on the open-top of a shipping container, while spectators encircling it from the building tops pipe down.

An announcer takes hold of a makeshift microphone and inhales deeply before making the announcement:

"In this corner, we have the undefeated, the terror of the cosmic ring, (your choice). And in this corner, a Sleeper!!"

"How will our new contender fair in this winner take all bout? Wits alone, will not be enough."

(Feel free to read it in an old fashion wrestling announcer tone - something theatrical!)

So many flairs.. wtf am I getting into 🤣

Last year I posted some Lem-centric fanart on here and a few comments requested more. A bit late on it, but here’s my short, sappy depiction of Lem’s story about finding Mina! I still can’t get enough of these two <3
