Precursors is actually quite decent. Lovely art direction and probably the first mix of a shooter, rpg and space sim I've seen that actually works. Tons of fun just exploring the towns and chatting with the locals. Game really has a star wars meets deus ex meets mass effect feel to it and then you get a ship and it turns into privateer.
Messed around a bit with versions to find the best results though. Russian version, updated to 1.1 and with Wesps 1.2 language patch is the one to go with. All the audio with the best english translation there is. Only thing still bothering me is the silly mouse acceleration which seems inherent to the engine.
Anyway, get this. It's well worth it. Get through the 10 minute tutorial/combat simulator and the game opens up.

And a review of the recently released english version. Russkie version with translation fanpatch does not have these audio problems mentioned and also sports a better translation. :D

I got through White Gold just recently and i must say, its quite amusing, but dont expect any well designed quests. There is a lot of "talking" quests, but most are for the lulz only. Dont expect GTA missions, there are only some basic driving fedex missions or assasinations. Factions give the game a bit complexity. End game is THE definition of popamole.
All in all it is a good time waster popamole, but you can feel a lot of love was put into it. No copy&paste, a lot of dialogs, that never would make it in a western release. Devs and Tech have potential.
I did not encounter any bugs, game is poorly optimized though. I dont know why it didnt get a western release, probably because boiling point was such a bug fest publishers stayed away. <--AoD is doing it right, you got only one chance, dont screw it up.
