Greetings ,

I own Distant world and 2 Expansions (Legend/RtShakturi) did not get into the game at first and now returning to try it again

My questions do I need to get Universe to access all the new features ?or latest patch of the Distant World wil do ?

Thanks

You are missing the Shadows expansion, which allows you to start in pre-warp mode (just discovering/researching space travel) or to play as a pirate as well as some tech tree expansions.

The main advantage of Universe over a fully expanded original DW is the ability to create and use mods, so how much you want Universe rather than Shadows probably depends on how important mods are to you.
